Lyrics
Let it fade away
Letting something gradually disappear
Wither into ash
Becoming reduced to ashes
As flame rains down
Amidst the falling flames
Are you happy now?
Questioning if satisfaction is achieved
Desperate for control
Desiring authority and influence
Of the world you used to own
In control of a world that once belonged
Pull the strings and watch us dance
Manipulating situations and observing the consequences
Like faithful soldiers down below
Similar to obedient soldiers below
Who could have thought
Reflecting on unexpected outcomes
The land that I loved
The cherished land now a distant memory
Would become a place I used to know
Transforming into an unfamiliar place
(Non est vobis adhibemus)
(Latin phrase: Not for you we employ)
Remember
Recalling the past
Remember
Emphasizing the importance of memory
You have to remember
Stressing the necessity to recall
Remember what you were fighting for
Recalling the initial purpose of the struggle
Watch it fade away
Observing the gradual disappearance
Dissolving into dust and flame
Dissolving into particles and fire
Who could have known
Surprised by the unexpected turn of events
That this was how the story would go?
Reflecting on the unforeseen narrative
Echoes from the past
Resonances from historical events
Circumvent the walls we built
Avoiding the barriers erected to forget losses
To forget the lives we lost
Related to lives sacrificed in a distant war
In that war so long ago
Recalling a conflict from the distant past
Who could have thought
Similar to line 10
The land that I loved
Similar to line 11
Would become a place I used to know
Similar to line 12
(Non est vobis adhibemus)
Reiteration of the Latin phrase
How did you know?
Questioning the ability to foresee
How did you see?
Asking how the realization occurred
That this all was never meant to be
Acknowledging the inherent lack of destiny
(Non est vobis adhibemus)
Reiteration of the Latin phrase
Remember
Recalling past events
I remember
Personal recollection
I can't remember
Expressing difficulty in recollection
You have to remember what you were fighting for
Reiterating the importance of remembering
(Non est vobis adhibemus)
Reiteration of the Latin phrase
Please remember
Requesting remembrance
You have to remember
Emphasizing the necessity of recall
Remember what you were fighting for
Reiteration of the importance of initial motives
