"I wanted to make a really stomping mid-tempo song, and just thinking that thought made me play the first riff without hesitation. The image I worked from was a child lifting their gaze from play and looking out into the world. With each verse, the child grows older and begins to draw their own conclusions more and more. One of the best lyrics. The basic song itself has a fairly simple structure. It’s only at the solo that we start to go wild, with a death riff in 7/8 time. Really tricky harmonies, which made composing melodic solos quite challenging. But after many hours of effort, it turned out really well. Per-Mårten added a couple of important keyboard lines at the end of the solo. Masken’s understanding of the lyrics and his raw power bring so much energy. (Jan Strandh, Master Massive)

Lyrics:
Like a dream and soon awake
Memories come to life
Corridors and familiar halls
Down the stairs into the night
In confusion a state of blur
Sounds of the engine roar
And as the lights flash my stomach turns
Sensing the spawn of war
A need to hide from emergency
But we’re not alone
Save me from this insanity
Under a burning sun
Before my questions and sanity
The answers obscure my mind
And when the children just have to learn
They’re led by the deaf and blind
I remember the wonder
Living a lie
In shelter from the darkness
Dreams and visions
Melt like snowballs
Left in the rain
Our hated generation
Fight the liars
A calling filled with lights and fires
Soon the wind will change its course
And martyrize the nightingale that sings
While the flock steers into the night
The blind will learn that life is harsh
And the children just have to fight
Under a million stars
Lights and fires, conclusions
Burn in my mind
As wisdom grows resistance
Dreams and visions
Melt like snowballs
Left in the rain
Our hated generation
Swallowed by the dragon
To a second stone age
