Ad Infinitum Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
A chance you didn’t take
Like the lightning we will fall on your golden world
Your final reverence
Now on the horizon you can see our torches burning
No turning back, our army will attack
Your dynasty ends tonight
We are the army of silent cries
Marching on your denial
We are the justice for those who died
For the glory of Versailles
March!
The day has come
The unwanted are rising
March!
The day has come
And now the fates are changing
March!
The day has come
A new horizon shining
March!
The day has come
From your head the crown is falling
Hear the symphony
Of our liberty
Hundreds of voices resounding through the night
Pushed in the shadows
Away from your halo
We’ve been kept outside of your perfect paradise
We step into the light, of the moon tonight
History chose its side
March!
Today is the day my friends
March!
We’ll be free from our chains
March!
Have faith, justice we prevail
March!
Today, today we rewrite history
We are the army of silent cries
Marching on your your denial
We are the justice for those who died
For the glory of Versailles
March!
The day has come
The unwanted are rising
March!
The day has come
And now the fates are changing
March!
The day has come
A new horizon shining
March!
The day has come
From your head the crown is falling

Today, today we rewrite history
This is the day where we create history, making an indelible impact on it

People in plague masks singing about the French Revolution is probably the most 2020 music video of 2020.

@Statoil Bensin Tell me you don't know what you're talking about in the most long-winded way you can

@Statoil Bensin а лучше с гримом на лицах? Посмотри к слову Пикник - в руках великана... Маски не сильно портят впечатление, это часть стиля.

Yeah, specifically the womens movement in France which spread worldwide yeah the Army of Versailles is specifically that event I loved that since I was a kid lol became obsessed with the womens movement and great women in history considering how few they were most were super benevolent leaders.

Everyone’s talking about the singer, and rightly so she’s fantastic don’t get me wrong! The instrumentalists in the band have some serious chops too. I’m just listening to random songs that show up with ‘autoplay’ while at work. I had to rewind to actually watch the video too, then listen to it a few times.
Napalm is really building an impressive catalog of bands!

Mellissa is the composer as well produced by who else Sascha Paeith he does all Symphonic albums basically including Nightwish.
Jimmy Zarkis
well thats a given. If the music sucked behind her it would make her sound bad too. Guitar players are a dime a dozen. An attractive female singer that can scream....not so common.

Melissa selected them and is the founder of the band and left Rage of Light to do her own stuff. So naturally, she needed first rate musicians on her level.. She is the composer and songwriter. Oh, and she is a musician herself and is proficient on keyboards and guitar. Check out her solo acoustic stuff.
