With their latest release "Tarassis", dEMOTIONAL has proven themselves as a solid six-man-army worthy that place. dEMOTIONAL has become notorious for their energetic live shows and their way of combining modern guitar riffs and the two singers vocals. "Tarassis" is recorded, mixed & produced at Studio PH" by Pontus Hjelm (Dead By April), and it is the product of a young metalband that are experimenting with different genres and tempos, though at the same time keeping their distinctive sound that made them so popular. Just like the album "State: In Denial", the new album "Tarassis" went straight in to the national album chart. After spending a big amount of their time in 2014 writing new material and recording the new album, 2015 dEMOTIONAL successfully headed out as main support to Dead By April on "The Stronger Tour all over Europe.

Young Wolves
Demotional Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
That everything you do is wrong
Can't catch a break, it just goes on and on and on and on
Doesn't matter what you say, they won't listen anyway
But they will surely learn a lesson down the line
Soon it is my turn. They will learn in time
Who's gonna take the blame and run it all?
Who's gonna lead the future after all?
The young wolves
Who's gonna rest their bones when they grow old?
Who's gonna keep them warm when they get cold?
Who's gonna hold their hands after all?
The young wolves
Every day is just the same
You will always take the blame
There's no hope
There is no reason in the games they play
And when all your friends are gone
You've got me to hold on
A new day will come
Who's gonna catch them safely when they fall?
Who's gonna take the blame and run it all?
Who's gonna lead the future after all?
The young wolves
Who's gonna rest their bones when they grow old?
Who's gonna keep them warm when they get cold?
Who's gonna hold their hands after all?
The young wolves
The young wolves
A place and time for everything
One day they will beg for what you bring
So I just bite my tongue and exercise patience
Go ahead and walk all over me
Lay here on your crumbling foundation
I can guarantee you will see
One day all your friends are gone
But you'll have me to hold on
A new day will come
Who's gonna catch them safely when they fall?
Who's gonna take the blame and run it all?
Who's gonna lead the future after all?
The young wolves
Who's gonna rest their bones when they grow old?
Who's gonna keep them warm when they get cold?
Who's gonna hold their hands after all?
The young wolves
The young wolves
The lyrics of Demotional's song "Young Wolves" delve into themes of alienation, resilience, and the challenges of feeling like an outsider. The opening lines convey the experience of being constantly marginalized and criticized, with the sense of not belonging and being misunderstood by those around you. The repetition of feeling like everything you do is wrong and being unable to catch a break emphasizes the relentless nature of this struggle. Despite trying to communicate and assert oneself, the lyrics suggest a sense of futility in the face of a dismissive audience that refuses to listen.
The chorus introduces the concept of "young wolves," a symbol of strength, resilience, and the potential for leadership. The singer poses poignant questions about who will support and guide these young wolves, who will be there to catch them when they fall and provide comfort and guidance in times of trouble. The imagery of resting bones and growing old, keeping warm and holding hands, underscores the idea of nurturing and caring for the younger generation in a world that may not always be kind or welcoming.
As the verses progress, there is a poignant acknowledgment of the repetitive nature of this struggle, where one is always made to feel at fault and facing a lack of hope or reason in the interactions with others. The reassurance that "A new day will come" offers a glimmer of hope and resilience in the face of adversity. The idea of being a constant source of support for those who may have turned away, of being the one they can hold on to when others are no longer around, speaks to a deep sense of loyalty and steadfastness.
The final verse introduces a sense of patience and foresight, where the singer sees beyond the immediate challenges and confidently asserts that one day, those who have overlooked or mistreated them will come to regret their actions. Despite being underestimated and undervalued, the singer remains steadfast and resilient, offering a beacon of support and stability for those in need. The repeated chorus reinforces the idea of the "young wolves" as a symbol of strength and potential, while also underscoring the importance of guidance, warmth, and companionship in navigating life's challenges.

Have you been told you don't belong?
Have you ever been excluded or made to feel like you don't fit in?
That everything you do is wrong
That your actions are constantly criticized and deemed incorrect
Can't catch a break, it just goes on and on and on and on
Unable to find relief, the adversity persists endlessly
Doesn't matter what you say, they won't listen anyway
No matter what you express, they refuse to pay attention
But they will surely learn a lesson down the line
Their ignorance will lead to their realization later on
Soon it is my turn. They will learn in time
Eventually, they will face consequences and understand
Who's gonna catch them safely, when they fall?
Who will be there to support them when they encounter hardships?
Who's gonna take the blame and run it all?
Who will accept responsibility and handle everything?
Who's gonna lead the future after all?
Who will guide the path ahead despite everything?
The young wolves
Symbolizing those who are strong and resilient in the face of challenges
Who's gonna rest their bones when they grow old?

Who's gonna keep them warm when they get cold?
Who will offer warmth and support when they feel vulnerable?
Who's gonna hold their hands after all?
Who will be there to offer comfort and guidance in the end?
Every day is just the same
The monotony of facing similar challenges daily
You will always take the blame
Constantly being held accountable for things that go wrong
There's no hope
Feeling hopeless and lacking optimism in the given situation
There is no reason in the games they play
The actions of others are manipulative and lack justification
And when all your friends are gone
When you are left without the support of those you once had
You've got me to hold on
I will be the one you can rely on for support
A new day will come
There is hope for a change and better circumstances in the future
A place and time for everything
Events will unfold when the circumstances are right
One day they will beg for what you bring
Eventually, they will realize the value of what you offer
So I just bite my tongue and exercise patience
Choosing to hold back words and remain patient in difficult times
Go ahead and walk all over me
Despite the treatment received, I am willing to endure it
Lay here on your crumbling foundation
Staying strong even in the face of a weak structure
I can guarantee you will see
Assuring that you will eventually understand the consequences
But you'll have me to hold on
You can rely on me for support when others have left

„Have you been told you don't belong, that everything you do is wrong?“ „Doesn't matter what they say, they won't listen anyway“
Now that's an instant hooker for nihilistic late-adolescence me if I ever heard one! That was beautifully performed.
