LYRICS
Was it all just a dream or
Was it just the price to pay?
Now I'm left here to pray in silence
And you got what you wanted

I search for meaning when all I used to do was dreaming
Disconsolate, mourning a loss, lonesome at best
Run away, but I can never escape from the pain in my brain
This fucking misery

I need a reason for who we are
I need to breathe throughout the war
I lost faith in myself again
I lost faith in myself again

Just breathe in, just breathe in
And bury me, bury me
Just pretend, just pretend
And run away, run away

(I’m slowly shutting down and)
I can't dеny, that all I do is losing control
You know I can't keep going on, this shit is taking its toll
But I can never escapе, but I can never escape, fuck
But I can never escape, system failure

I need a reason for who we are
I need to breathe throughout the war
I lost faith in myself again
I lost faith in myself again

that outro solo.. Flo is just damn good in creating melodic lines..

[tylermartinmusic]

I fell in love with ALAZKA and then Kassim left and I was heartbroken... Then shortly after, I fell in love with Novelists and Matteo left. Once again I was heartbroken... the fact Tobias from ALAZKA is now with Novelists is so bittersweet. Kind of poetic honestly.

[ForestGoddard]

Ok I was NOT expecting such a heavy breakdown there lol damn

[nathanielsmith]

No idea what you’re all complaining about.
This is dope.

[zopQQ]

Just a reminder to bring this version back to Spotify since my last comment about it got deleted.

[teion.]

These comments are a painful reminder of how shitty the metal community can be. This is my introduction to this band and I'm absolutely blown away. The song is fantastic in terms of mixing, structure, tone, vocals, emotion, etc., yet half of the comments here are some backhanded remark about how this song would've been "so much better with the previous vocalist." I understand that change can be hard for people, but have some respect. Imagine how hard it would be to replace a lead vocalist, and how hard it would be for a band that has to reinvent itself after losing its vocalist. And despite all of that, they come out with an airtight banger. This community really has to learn how to just respect and enjoy this amazing music without throwing a temper tantrum any time a song comes out that isn't exactly how you thought it would sound.

"Lost Cause"

Was it all just a dream or
Was it just the price to pay?
Now I'm left here to pray in silence
And You got what you wanted

I search for meaning
When all I used to do was dreaming
Disconsolate, mourning a loss
Lonesome at best
Run away
But I can never escape
From the pain in my brain
This fucking misery

I need a reason for who we are
I need to breath, throughout the war
I lost faith in myself again

I lost faith in myself again

Just breath in
Just breath in
And bury me
And bury me
Just pretend
Just pretend
And run away
And run away

I'm slowly shutting down and
I can't deny, that all I do is losing control
You know I can't keep going on, this shit is taking its toll
But I can never escape
But I can never escape

But I can never escape

System failure

I need a reason for who we are
I need to breath, throughout the war
I lost faith in myself again

I lost faith in myself again...

[Windcutter_Flora]

Wasn't a fan of the vocals initially, after a few days of listening, I must have listened to this song hundreds of times. Super good. Really grew on me.

[SuperEngita]

The hype is real, very happy for Tobias and Novelists! Look forward to listening and jamming this!

[hououinkyouma]

This mix is so much better than the one on Spotify.

[chrizszx]

I keep coming back to this song because it is a masterpiece

[MurphyBWFC]

Who’s here after they changed the mix and want to listen to the original?

[py]

Love this song, Tobi’s range is crazy, Camille definitely does it justice too

[yannickvs]

This song literally took me straight to 2021. I'm literally blown away by this.

[mr_KLOB]

For some reason I knew that even when Matteo left, this band would still be producing amazing stuff. I was not mistaken.

[brizio_sch]

The solo is the most tasteful I’ve heard in a loooong while!

Overall, one of the best songs of 2020.
CHANGE MY MIND

[malibu]

How nice it is to hear Tobi sing with such passion, greetings from Venezuela

[leagueoflemons]

Did they update the sound on Spotify? Sounds different than it used to

[Jarczenko]

I like this mix more than spotify etc one

[jameslawrence]

That outro really put some pain in my chest. Incredible.
