Line by Line Meaning

And if you think you've seen me
In case you believe you have encountered me before


I have to prove you
I must demonstrate to you


That you're wrong
That your belief is erroneous

No one imagine Jonas Renske painful memories and feelings; those which have inspired this masterpiece.
Yeah! No one could demand any additional second. It's perfect to let you realize how deep tragedies are pushing and moving life through. Light over darkness. . .
A gone child...
Brother...
Mother...
Father...
Daugther...
Son...
Friend more than family
Who knows
That gone love...
That woman, that soul...gone.



@dantemert

bir hissizlik başladı kafamda 
ve gün yatalak olmuş, 
gerçekten istediğim şeyler 
kalbimden sökülmüş. 
yolunu hiç görmedin 
kalmanı nasıl istediğimin, 
ve şimdi gittin 
kendi başımayım. 

düşünürken ben 
kalıcı olduğunu bazı şeylerin, 
hayal ediyordun zaten 
çekip gitmeyi

His voice on this album is a pure masterpiece... He sounds like he is fighting the tears, and this song is one of the best Katatonia's ever written

I also think it's one of the most depressing songs ever written

@Sariiittta

This is the most painful and sad song I have heard. But It's just beautiful. I can't describe with words what I feel listening to this song. I feel so identified with it... I feel breathless...
