Sonata Arctica Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
To burn down to the handle
No matter what they say
If you live like a man, You live in tales you tell
To rage and run like a fool
You need no brain, your best tool
Stay put and as they say
You let the phone line bring it home to you
The life, the lies, the dreams
You cannot see the real thing underneath
- Naked truth revealed
You type your name on one row
To get dosed-up tomorrow
You live in a CC dream, with your machine
It's your goal supreme
You think you have it all now
The wisdom, power, know-how
Can't even think you're wrong
This is the way the brain of a male is made
You let the phone line bring it home to you
The life, the lies, the dreams
You cannot see the real thing underneath
- Naked truth revealed
If you live, you will die
You won't live forever stuck in time
Ebb and flow, push and tow
You must keep it real to find her
You let the phone line bring it home to you
The life, the lies, the dreams
Can't even see the real thing underneath
- Naked truth revealed
If you live, you will die
You won't live forever stuck in time
Ebb and flow, push and tow
You must keep it real to find her
Repeat Chorus
The song 'Weballergy' by Sonata Arctica is about the human need for connection amidst the traps of modern-day living. The opening lines state that we only have one candle, meaning one life to live and that we should live it well, without worrying about what others say. The song then goes on to contrast two ways of living, one being to rage and run without thinking, while the other is to stay put and live like a man, which means to live with integrity. The second verse speaks about the trap of technology and how it affects lives. We live in a CC dream, with our machine as our goal supreme, indicating that we are so enamored by technology that we forget the real connections in life. The chorus repeats that if we live, we will die, and we should keep it real if we want to connect with people.
