[Music: Friman / lyrics: Sevänen]
To know love is to ache;
hurt yourself and repent
For in the end all is gone;
lights go out, your time is spent
If I were you I would retract and lock my heart
Concede defeat and admit I was off the mark
If I were you I would turn away and hide my face
Swallow my pride and then finish ere it's all disgrace
All of our dreams now laid on the sand
To wait by the perilous tides
To be washed away into the depths
And sink without a trace
Just a fool's hope remains
To rejoice is to lapse;
fool yourself and repent
Mirth will soon turn into woe,
reveries to contempt
If I were you I would now bring the curtain down
Accept my lot and thus fathom out my own bounds
If I were you I would rue the day when I was born
Cleanse all in life and redeem myself from scorn
Remember these words when tide is turning
The less you hope for, the less you suffer
If you dare to trust, then you shall shatter
Lunge from the heights and fall to smithereens
And when you come here with charred wings and a defiled heart
Wait not for compassion or words of consolation
For only a gleeful smile is greeting you

Insomnium è una band finlandese di melodic death metal proveniente da Joensuu. Fondata nel 1997, il gruppo si distingue per l'influenza del doom metal e per testi che esplorano temi come dolore, morte, perdita e lutto. La musica di Insomnium incorpora anche elementi di folk nordico/norreno e musica sinfonica, creando un sound epico e malinconico. Il nome "Insomnium", che significa "incubo" in latino, richiama anche una categoria di visioni religiose presenti nelle culture greca, romana e medievale cristiana. Tra i brani più rappresentativi si ricordano "While Days Turn Into Years", "The Mourning Star" e "Ephemeral". L'album di debutto, "Within The Shadows", risale al 2000.
