The band recorded their first demo (named 'Weeper's Aeon') in 1998 and in a short time they had enough of a following to safely attempt a full-length album - 'Sweet Desire' - recorded in 1999, which later got the attention of Spinefarm Records and led to a professional contract. Their career truly began progressing after the release of the album 'Be My God' - from 2001 - which was issued as they went on a joint tour with the power metal band Edguy.

However, vocalist Tanya Kemppainen quit the band in 2002, leaving Lullacry without its main element. Many female singers applied for the post, but the then unknown Tanja Lainio ultimately stepped in and brought her lightly bitter contralto vocals along with her. Their following release was entitled Crucify My Heart. The single Don't Touch The Flame taken from this album included a cover of the Nine Inch Nails track ''Head Like A Hole''.

Prior to the record of a new full album the EP 'Fire Within' was released including alternative versions of two of the bands classics tracks, a W.A.S.P. cover, and two new tracks.

In June 2005 the band announced the completion of their fourth album entitled 'Vol. 4' which was released in September of that year and was proceeded by the single ''Stranger In You'' released in July and including a Kiss cover. After a long hiatus, Lullacry released their fifth studio album 'Where Angels Fear' in 2012.

They announced a split in 2014 following three farewell shows.

The Band:
Tanja Lainio - Vocals
Sami Vauhkonen - Lead Guitar
Sauli Kivilahti - Guitar
Kimmo ''Heavy'' Hiltunen - Bass
Jukka Outinen - Drums

Former member:
Tanya Kemppainen - Vocals

Unchain
Lullacry Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

This sadness won't let go its hold of me
No matter how hard I try
There's something strange deep inside of my heart
And nothing really matters to me

I'm so alone
My heart is bleeding
Unchain my soul and let me go

I close my eyes and taste my fears

Down there so alone

Sorrow inside made me bleed
I need you to unchain me

The second line reveals the presence of something strange and profound inside her heart that nothing in the outside world can comfort her. The last two lines of the first stanza show the overall mood of the song, which is the feeling of despair and hopelessness.

The chorus part of the song tells about the singer's isolation, heartbreak, and the painful experiences she's been through. She begs for someone to break the chains that tie her down and release her from the suffocation she feels. The line "I close my eyes and taste my fears" signifies that the singer is so overwhelmed with anxiety and worry that she feels like she is drowning in her own fear.

Line by Line Meaning

This sadness won't let go its hold of me
I am consumed by a deep sense of sorrow and cannot seem to shake it off

No matter how hard I try
Despite my best efforts, the sadness persists

There's something strange deep inside of my heart
I feel a mysterious and unsettling feeling in the depths of my being

And nothing really matters to me
I am indifferent to everything around me; nothing brings me joy or hope

I'm so alone
I feel isolated and disconnected from others

My heart is bleeding
My emotional pain is so intense that it feels like my heart is physically bleeding

Unchain my soul and let me go
I need to be free from the emotional chains that are holding me down

I close my eyes and taste my fears
My fears and anxieties are so palpable that I can almost taste them

Down there so alone
I am trapped in a dark and desolate place, feeling utterly alone

Sorrow inside made me bleed
My sorrow and emotional pain are so intense that it feels like I am bleeding inwardly

I need you to unchain me
I need someone to help me break free from the emotional chains that are keeping me trapped
