In Flames is a Swedish melodic death metal band, formed by guitarist Jesper… Read Full Bio ↴In Flames is a Swedish melodic death metal band, formed by guitarist Jesper Strömblad in Gothenburg in 1990. Alongside At the Gates and Dark Tranquillity, In Flames pioneered the genres known as Swedish death metal and melodic death metal.

During the band's early years, In Flames had a varying group of musicians recording with them, including many session musicians. By the release of Colony (1999), the group had established a stable lineup. Their sixth studio album Reroute to Remain (2002) showed the band moving toward a newer style of music that moved further away from melodic death metal and closer to alternative metal. This decision was criticized by fans of the group's heavier metal sound; however, it increased the band's mainstream audience and bolstered their album sales. As of 2008, In Flames has sold over two million records worldwide.

Since the band's inception, In Flames have released thirteen studio albums, three EPs, and two live DVDs, their latest release being their thirteenth studio album I, the Mask in 2019. In Flames has been nominated for three Grammis Awards. They won two of these nominations; one for Soundtrack to Your Escape (2004) in the "Hard Rock/Metal of the Year" category, and one nomination for their following album Come Clarity (2006) in the same category.

I The Mask
In Flames Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

From here, I can hardly see a thing
We're further off with every passing second
I will follow anyone that brings me to you
But the sense of time is catching up with me

Will you see me if I set fire to the sky?
If I act like I'm untouchable and golden?
Wonder when I'll hit the ground

Been to space, but I am falling
Wasting what is mine

For a voice that's calling

Who am I?
So many faces, dressed in rags for all to see
Here I am in the mask
The Jester that wants to be free

I am done with watching graves grow mould
The sins are mine, I believe them to be

All the tears, they're draining me
We find the truth through tragedy
Give me a sign, I'm on my knees
Feel like you've forgotten me

Who am I?
So many faces, dressed in rags for all to see
Here I am in the mask
The Jester that wants to be free

How could you leave me behind?
I'm tired, and I felt it for sometime
I can't take this much longer
I'm stuck in a downward spiral
I'm stuck in a downward spiral
I'm stuck in a downward spiral

All the tears, they're draining me
We find the truth through tragedy
Give me a sign, give me a sign

Who am I?
So many faces, dressed in rags for all to see
Here I am, in the mask
The Jester that wants to be free
Will you see me if I set fire to the sky?

Will you see me if I set fire to the sky?

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of "I The Mask" by In Flames depict a sense of longing, desperation, and a search for identity. The singer is struggling to find their place in the world and seeks a connection with someone or something that can guide them. The opening lines suggest a lack of clarity and growing distance from their desired destination. They are willing to follow anyone who can lead them closer, but time is always catching up, creating a sense of urgency.

The chorus poses the question of identity, with the singer questioning who they truly are amidst a multitude of personas and disguises. They feel like a jester trapped by their own mask, longing for freedom and authenticity. The repetition of the question emphasizes their search for self, as they desperately want to be seen and known for who they really are.

The second verse reflects a desire to break free from the confines of the past. The singer feels burdened by their mistakes and regrets, taking ownership of their sins. The tears symbolize the emotional toll these burdens have taken, and the search for truth is found through the pain and tragedy they have experienced.

The bridge reveals a plea for acknowledgement and a sign from someone they have desperately been waiting for. The singer feels forgotten and abandoned, questioning why they have been left behind. They express exhaustion and a sense of being trapped in a downward spiral, longing for release from their current predicament.

The song ends with a repetition of the chorus and the question of whether their actions, even if extreme, will finally make them visible and heard by those they long to connect with.

Line by Line Meaning

From here, I can hardly see a thing
My vision is obscured and I struggle to perceive my surroundings

We're further off with every passing second
With the passage of time, we are distancing ourselves

I will follow anyone that brings me to you
I am willing to follow anyone who can lead me to you

But the sense of time is catching up with me
However, the awareness of time is catching up to me

Will you see me if I set fire to the sky?
If I create a spectacle by setting the sky ablaze, will you finally notice me?

If I act like I'm untouchable and golden?
If I portray myself as invincible and radiant with success?

Wonder when I'll hit the ground
I wonder when I will face the consequences of my actions

Been to space, but I am falling
I have achieved great heights, yet I am still plummeting downward

Wasting what is mine
I am squandering what belongs to me

For a voice that's calling
In exchange for the beckoning of a voice

Who am I?
I question my true identity

So many faces, dressed in rags for all to see
I present various personas, each appearing destitute for everyone to witness

Here I am in the mask
I exist behind a facade

The Jester that wants to be free
A playful clown yearning for liberation

I am done with watching graves grow mould
I am tired of witnessing decay in burial sites

The sins are mine, I believe them to be
I take responsibility for my own transgressions, acknowledging their existence

All the tears, they're draining me
The constant sorrow is depleting my energy

We find the truth through tragedy
Truth often reveals itself in the midst of tragedy

Give me a sign, I'm on my knees
I plea for a sign of hope, humbled and desperate

Feel like you've forgotten me
I perceive as if you have abandoned or forsaken me

How could you leave me behind?
Why have you forsaken me and left me in the past?

I'm tired, and I felt it for sometime
I am weary, and I have been feeling this exhaustion for a while

I can't take this much longer
I am reaching my breaking point and cannot endure this anymore

I'm stuck in a downward spiral
I am trapped in a continuous descent, unable to escape

Give me a sign, give me a sign
Please provide me with a clear indication or message

Here I am, in the mask
Once again, I exist behind a facade

The Jester that wants to be free
A playful clown desperately seeking liberation

Will you see me if I set fire to the sky?
If I ignite the sky in flames, will you finally acknowledge my existence?

Bahahahaha, man, as someone who was around when the whole "new In Flames sux!" bandwagon started, it's fucking HILARIOUS now seeing people say "THIS IS GREAT! JUST LIKE OLD IN FLAMES, LIKE COME CLARITY" ... The Come Clarity era was precisely what people were complaining about at the time. "Old In Flames" always referred to Lunar Strain through to Colony / Clayman. Personally I've loved like 99% of their songs, and I'm not one to knock other people's taste, but at least get your insults right.

@ghst8397

@@death_anima there were a couple times when their music changed pretty drastically. Lunar strain is kind of an island of its own. That was when Michael Stanne (Dark Tranquility) and Anders couldn't make their minds up about what bands they wanted to be in (and what roles they wanted to have). The Jester Race through Colony, maybe even Clayman, are all fucking rock solid perfection in nearly all aspects. Clayman and Reroute to Remain are the outro to that really heavy melodic (but not black) metal chapter. Soundtrack to your escape took me years to appreciate (I hated it when it first dropped), because this was the complete tipping point. Come clarity was the last album they made that I enjoyed sitting through essentially every song. I'm enough of a fan to sit through their new music and try to find appreciation, but it's just not the same. I think I'll probably always have a soft spot for 1996-2002 and come clarity. Nothing else resonates with me the same way.

I don't think it's so much about them being different, it's about them dealing with the bullshit criticisms about their sound being "New" or "Not Old". He's saying he's wearing a mask, because it's what everyone wants him to do. The fans want them to return to their "Old" sound, so they feel forced to wear a mask that to them, at this point, means nothing.

Went backwards, loved it. Went forwards and followed along. Loved them every step of the way. There were barely any mix CD's I burned in high school where I didn't have at least one In Flames song (or even Passengers) in my car for me to jam out to. Jammed out to In Flames all through college. And I'm STILL killing it out here with In Flames in my ears. You guys rule so fucking hard, and I can't wait to finally see y'all live. I don't often see other In Flames fans around me, but when I find them, I find a friend immediately. Keep the metal alive, keep going, keep it the realest!

So many people trash Siren Charms/Battles, and Sounds. What's interesting is I loved Siren Charms and those softer albums. Sirens was my first time ever listening to In Flames. I'm 49 and missed this whole genre of music. Siren Charms was my gateway drug. Now I've gone back and discovered all of their older music, and I appreciate it all for what it is. I really like the diversity. Saw them live in Phoenix a few months ago, adn the show had a great mix of old and new. I'm excited to see this full new album! -Jeff

Pre chorus and Chorus are so different than anything theyve ever done but the whole song is definitely In Flames and has alot of styles from R2R and ASOP. Which is fantastic! Love the fast tempo.

Joseph Sabatino is it? Sounds like a standard post come clarity song, almost difficult to tell it apart from the rest of the catalogue. Always like when they include jester stuff though, that’s like jesper being present in spirit. Always like björns playing too. The chorus, idk.

@@sinanuluc5143 Yeah I guess youre right, it has a similar feel to the verse riff of Disconnected.

This comes off as them being self aware of the changes they've gone through since Come Clarity, the split between the fanbase where you got folks who only enjoy the first and second release, or up to Whoreacle, Clayman. Then you got the RTR through Come Clarity fans, or the new age fanbase. Lot of faces, changes, trying to appeal to new, and old fans. You can't, will never please everyone. That said, this comes off as somewhere between Come Clarity and A Sense of Purpose.

Subjective, Anders cleans have improved, although a bit generic. His screams are very much his own. The singles come off promising, so that's good.

Who knew that the former drummer for a band like Red would be. So badass! Loving it.

And these clean vocals actually sound really good! I’m stoked to be an In Flames fan again.
