Band: Insomnium (Finland)
Album: Shadows of the Dying Sun (2014)
Track: 1 - The Primeval Dark
2 - While We Sleep
LYRICS:
The Primeval Dark
Rooted within the pitch-black heart
Entrenched behind weary eyes
In the faraway song the cold sea sung
In the calm whisper of winds afar
It lies, calls and awaits deep in the primeval dark
Embodiment of despair that never leaves or severs the ties
While We Sleep
When your heart gives out and your love collapses
When the hand that never lets go is there no more
When you reap and sow only throe and resentment
When there's no one else but you to blame it for
When all you ever wish for is to go back once more
When all you ever wish for is to change it all
When all you feel is remorse, pain and regret
When you dwell in the past unable to move on
And we drift far away in our dreams
Gather further distance while we sleep
Build a wall of glass thick and deep
We hear but choose not to listen
And we drift far away in our dreams
Gather further distance while we sleep
Still the bridge is enflamed with fire
Leave all the love we had behind
When you realize that your life is a one-way road
When you realize that there's no point of return
When you understand that you can't go back anymore
When you understand you can only move onwards
And we drift far away in our dreams
Gather further distance while we sleep
Build a wall of glass thick and deep
We hear but choose not to listen
And we drift far away in our dreams
Gather further distance while we sleep
Still the bridge is enflamed with fire
Leave all the love we had behind
Slow down
We need to slow down
We need to slow down so I can catch you
We need to slow down so I can catch you
We need to slow down so you can catch me
We need to slow down so I can catch you
We need to slow down so you can catch me
Slow down

Many of us come from different countries and cultures....and this hits us to the core. What does it mean? Regardless, of race, color or creed..........We need to slow down. Mindfulness. Thank you Insomnium for a sobering reminder.

I feel the same way about inertia through the shadows or all of winters gate.
One of the best lead-offs in melodic death metal that will ever exist I will always get goosebumps when I listen to the outro intro just every single time
the absolute raw emotion these dudes put into their music is both awesome and fearsome
The Primeval Dark and While We Sleep are two of my favorite tracks off Shadows of the Dying Sun. They flow together so perfectly and they are truly beautiful songs.

Never would i have expected that they are now in my top 3 best concerts i have ever seen and i have seen ALOT of bands. Went with two friends who never heard them and they were awstruck aswell. So for those who haven't: SEE THEM WHEN U HAVE THE CHANCE. Don't hesitate

Once a year I listen to this and to this day goosebumps every single fucking time it’s too melodic and emotional to not feel that intensity of these two songs the intro into the sweet sweet melodies of while we sleep is to perfect it’s so magnificent and beautiful as a sequence of two beautiful fusions of music
The depth and breadth of this mourning ...
One of the more epic Insomnium songs. REPLAY.
For the longest time I thought it was "we need to slow down, so I can... cherish you" and I still think that hits harder but maybe that's just me.

That would be a good lyric, but the actual lyrics are pretty impactful as well. In the context of the song, the actual lyrics resonate well. The first few passages talking about what isn't there any more, regretting not making more of that time while it lasted, and with the distance between the present and the moments that are yearned for growing further with each sleep. The fleeting moments must slow down so they can continue to exist in remembrance..To catch them as if to grab hold and relive them again.. That's how I interpret it anyways, so while "cherish" would hit hard, to cherish is to hold dear, so it would suggest that the time is gone and he loves it for what it was, but is not yearning for that reconnection. I think the other lyrics would need to be a bit different to have it resonate as well. Great song and lyrics either way.

I feel it's a love hate relationship, the intro song just makes the song following it so much better because of the build up, but then sometimes the intro song is like 30 seconds, and it would sound dumb for it to come on, only to have the song following it be something else. (if you're listening to music on random)
