I’ve been through the best time of my life listening to these guys. I’ve also been through the worst time of my life recently and here I am listening to these guys again. Songs like this one really help me get through it
that chorus is so so good! the lyrics, vocals and the whole music. but that breakdown...man its been a long time since i encountered such a beautiful sequence
LYRICS Teach me to face what's lurking deep inside I'm crashing down right before you I feel broken, I feel downed With my face against the ground My heart is weighting me My icy soul is afire I'm running after bliss 'Cause I don't know what it tastes like But I'm not blaming anyone, no I'm way too much detached now Insensitive to your words And each time that I'm alone My fucking conscience tells me: "You're feeling sick of trying Of trying to bury the reason Of trying to heal the wounds in time You wanted to... To learn to love this feeling That's raging in your soul." Teach me to face what lurks within my heart I'm crashing down right before you I'm always hiding behind this smile The smile on my face So no one's gotta ask me if everythings okay Just read between the lines I'm wishing that you can see My sky ain't bluer than yours I'm way too much detached now I think I'm too far gone 'Cause each time I'm feeling lost My fucking conscience tells me: "You're feeling sick of trying Of trying to bury the reason Of trying to heal the wounds in time You wanted to... To learn to love this feeling That's raging in your soul." I'm feeling sick of trying Of trying to bury the reason I wanted to... To learn to love this feeling that's raging in my soul I've learned to love the thunder, until the sun comes back I've learned to love this rumble that haunts my mind It's never ever easy But I hold onto these lines I've learned to love this black cloud that haunts my nights
If there is a video that needs a lyric video, this is it. Last year, two men walked up on my porch, pulled a gun on me, and invaded my home, threatened to kill my wife and children (and me, of course). When something like that happens, you will never ever be the same. The panic attacks, the waking up int he middle fo the night every time you hear a noise outside your home, the constant spending on new and improved security measures for your family... It doesn't go away, but instead you simply learn to deal with it. I decided that my solution was to welcome the panic attacks and then take control of the scenario that played out during that panic attack. "I'm feeling sick of trying Of trying to bury the reason I wanted to... To learn to love this feeling that's raging in my soul I've learned to love the thunder, until the sun comes back I've learned to love this rumble that haunts my mind It's never ever easy But I hold onto these lines I've learned to love this black cloud that haunts my nights..." So now when the randomly and sometimes ill-timed feelings of over-alertness come, I play any number of scenarios out in my head where the two attackers end up shot and dying on my living room floor. It's a dark and macabre scenario, but I enjoy it now. These two assholes who are going to end up in jail for the rest of their life have no control over me any longer. That dark cloud is now my friend, and this song speaks so perfectly to that that the first time I heard it I was moved to weepiness... One more reason in the pantheon of reasons that Novelists is simply one of the greatest bands to ever put out a recording. They get it. They get what music is supposed to be both musically - with that grand, epic sound, and lyrically (though the words don't always translate perfectly) - with words that are supposed to speak to the listener. These are the small things in life that help us survive it. Thanks, Novelists for a hell of a song and a great album. (By the way, your album cover was my seven year old's birthday cake this year. He's a huge fan, too, bad words and all. If you'll PM me an email address I'll send you a picture of my perfect little child with his cake.)
Very powerful tune ... Perfect end to a perfect album the last two minutes made my hair stand on end ... You guys have never made a bad track I'd love to see the lyrics for this entire album
i just became a father - my wife is still in hospital and i've been listening to this song for an hour. i just hope that someday i can show this song to my son and that he feels as much energy in it as i do, because this is a very emotional moment right now and there are only a few songs that embody this atmosphere as well as this one.
This was uploaded one year ago and it feels like it was last month. Never experienced such emotional depths in music, never felt more comprehended by a song.
I've been listening to Novelists for years now, and coming back to their songs I always keep finding bangers I never heard before 😂 what an amazing band 🔥💯💯
Its one of those nights, alone, depressed and repeating time after time that I wont do it, that I wont cut or inflict any pain to myself. I even envisioned myself bending my knees to pray to god, to beg for guidance all while the storm keeps getting stronger. I don't know how much longer I can fight and hold hand with this darkness.
This album is incredibly powerful, it’s so sad it brings tears to my eyes. So many hair tingling moments, my God...... a travers le miroir, heal the wound are absolute masterpieces. Novelists are geniuses, so much love for you guys.
I'm way too much detached now Insensitive to your words And each time that I'm alone My fucking conscience tells me: "You're feeling sick of trying Of trying to bury the reason Of trying to heal the wounds in time You wanted to... To learn to love this feeling That's raging in your soul."
Great bands to look at are Plini, Polyphia, Intervals, Periphery and Monuments! The way in which they compose riffs is very similar to Novleits so that will do!
Man this is a killer banger I loved this song sick cool vibrant awesome kick ass track very emotional song I am starting to cry such an emotional heavy rock tune very awesome guitar riffs I enjoyed it Im starting to cry right now this tune touched me in my heart again such an emotional unique melodic hardcore track on the album amazing on this one I loved it very awesome vocals gives me more goosebumps loved it best track ever love u guys 😘💪🤟
The whole album pretty much was nice! I still love their Souvenirs album more and I don't know why. This song still my personal favorite in this album especially the outro
Rest in piece old novelists. The new band and singer just can’t touch this
Cannot agree more.
yep..
camille is good she has a certain something to her that captured me and I gravitated to her like I did matteo
That solo-ending is pure magic!
dear Novelists,
please set up a tour with Periphery, Veil of Maya, and Erra. thanks.
See you at the tour /,,/
We aren’t worthy.
The ground would shake, the heavens open, our eyes weep, and our pockets emptied.
That would be the most epic concert
OH HECK YES. AND DO AUSTRALIA PLEASE
I’ve been through the best time of my life listening to these guys. I’ve also been through the worst time of my life recently and here I am listening to these guys again. Songs like this one really help me get through it
this helped too but man if you only knew what happened to me lol
im happy for you for making it thru , stay bnlessed
And after all these years, I keep coming back to this song again and again. Honestly it’s such a life anthem track.
I find myself feeling the same way about this track.
I think so too!
Still here too.
Remembering this old piece of beauty, top 10 of emotional albums.
that chorus is so so good! the lyrics, vocals and the whole music. but that breakdown...man its been a long time since i encountered such a beautiful sequence
LYRICS
Teach me to face what's lurking deep inside
I'm crashing down right before you
I feel broken, I feel downed
With my face against the ground
My heart is weighting me
My icy soul is afire
I'm running after bliss
'Cause I don't know what it tastes like
But I'm not blaming anyone, no
I'm way too much detached now
Insensitive to your words
And each time that I'm alone
My fucking conscience tells me:
"You're feeling sick of trying
Of trying to bury the reason
Of trying to heal the wounds in time
You wanted to...
To learn to love this feeling
That's raging in your soul."
Teach me to face what lurks within my heart
I'm crashing down right before you
I'm always hiding behind this smile
The smile on my face
So no one's gotta ask me if everythings okay
Just read between the lines
I'm wishing that you can see
My sky ain't bluer than yours
I'm way too much detached now
I think I'm too far gone
'Cause each time I'm feeling lost
My fucking conscience tells me:
"You're feeling sick of trying
Of trying to bury the reason
Of trying to heal the wounds in time
You wanted to...
To learn to love this feeling
That's raging in your soul."
I'm feeling sick of trying
Of trying to bury the reason
I wanted to...
To learn to love this feeling that's raging in my soul
I've learned to love the thunder, until the sun comes back
I've learned to love this rumble that haunts my mind
It's never ever easy
But I hold onto these lines
I've learned to love this black cloud that haunts my nights
Ricky Smart Ricky Smart what are the background lyrics that are being sung after the second “haunts my nights”? I can’t find it anywhwre
idk Ill try to find it !
Ricky Smart that would be awesome. It’s driving me crazy, I can’t find it anywhere
I heard that part a couple pf Times and also cant understand it :/
Thanks dude!

I wish you the best in your life, big support from France, stay strong !!!
Thanks for sharing your story. I have a family too. I hope it gets better with time

ashley coyne Oh yesssss
Your songs saved me so many times. Thank you.
Keep going chad, you'll end up winning no matter what happens \m/
I've learned to love this black cloud that haunts my nights. Absolute poet.

Antares Pt.2
The moment this song started..I was like Oh boy these Antares vibes and then scrolled down to see your comment! :D
Worddddddddd!!!!!!!
That ending solo makes me wish it was much longer. But it's somehow also the perfect length.
The production is incredible. I have no words to describe how delighted I am with this album.
This sounds very similar to Periphery's 'The Way The News Goes...'! 🤘
One of the best tunes definitely on the new album, just hoped the end solo wouldnt fade out so fast :(
Definitively, that's fade out just ruined everything.. This ending melody was so beautiful.
exactly.. I want that solo to repeat forever
There's probably not a better song out there that resonates with me as well as this one. Love it so much!
2:51 gives me crazy feels.
This one really stands out. A great mixture between old and new Novelists! Amazed.
First off the whole track is a masterpiece. But from : it's true perfection. Perfection
This was uploaded one year ago and it feels like it was last month. Never experienced such emotional depths in music, never felt more comprehended by a song.
best song for sure. good album closer
This is so good to listen too. lyrics are so meaningful! That ending..wow!
I've been listening to Novelists for years now, and coming back to their songs I always keep finding bangers I never heard before 😂 what an amazing band 🔥💯💯
This album moves me beyond words
Never heard this song until yesterday and something about it just connected with me. Cannot stop listening to it
0:37 -
I'm down and off to biscuits, I don't know how it tastes right!

AMARILIS CATCLAW God is with you. Learn to see light in dark places. It will give you hope. We are never alone.
Brazil is here!
Uma banda capaz de unir todos os povos kkkkkkkkkk
Epic ending to this
Best song
This album is incredibly powerful, it’s so sad it brings tears to my eyes. So many hair tingling moments, my God...... a travers le miroir, heal the wound are absolute masterpieces. Novelists are geniuses, so much love for you guys.
If i could buy the second "Thumb Up" i would defenetly do this.
This album is flawless!
thank you novelists .....great album!
Marco Tilburg what did you think of that guys review of the album that you commented on lol
They nailed it on this track..
Suuuuchh an amazing track peeps! 🤍🤍🖤🖤🤟🥀
Génial cet album, vous me faites rêver 😍😍😍
That was a flawless album!
So souvenirs I LOVE IT
Now this is a good one
Antares!💯🤘
The lyrics of this album is ON POINT! story of my life
NOVELISTS are so Fucking good. I love them so much.
Sounds like a new different version of Antares somehow so amazing
Reminds me of Being as an Ocean and Napoleon
RHS Gaming I was thinking the same aha
I'm in love with this one. Epic final!
I love your tone guys! You're awesome!!
Made my day like 😍😍😍
I'm way too much detached now
Insensitive to your words
And each time that I'm alone
My fucking conscience tells me:
"You're feeling sick of trying
Of trying to bury the reason
Of trying to heal the wounds in time
You wanted to...
To learn to love this feeling
That's raging in your soul."
That ending !
This song is so good but it still hasn’t healed my shoulder that’s fucked up. 😂
Sooo damn good
I'd put this song up there, waay up there... And the end might be the best ever!
Perfection
Goosebumps from 3:11 !
LOVE NOVELISTS
I've learned to love the thunder...until the sun comes back. X
One of my favorite lines ever
Awesome Dutch metalcore band! \m/
They are french band
Lyricssss!
Awsome!
7/5 !!!!!
It sounds like as if Story Of The Year were Metalcore!!!
My friends, please help me learn of more music like this song, or bands like Novelists in general.
Peace and thank you!
Great bands to look at are Plini, Polyphia, Intervals, Periphery and Monuments! The way in which they compose riffs is very similar to Novleits so that will do!
I hear a strong influence of Haunted shores, Mark Holcomb are you there? ;)
Damn
That vintage Killswitch outro 💯
The perfect second half of this song to close the album...
I just wish that fade out was a decent bit longer....
Man this is a killer banger I loved this song sick cool vibrant awesome kick ass track very emotional song I am starting to cry such an emotional heavy rock tune very awesome guitar riffs I enjoyed it Im starting to cry right now this tune touched me in my heart again such an emotional unique melodic hardcore track on the album amazing on this one I loved it very awesome vocals gives me more goosebumps loved it best track ever love u guys 😘💪🤟
Such a periphery sound and i love it
Antares II !
What is the scale he is using in chorus?
This is god like
Apparently, there was 1 person's wound that didn't heal^
Come to spain
modern metalcore became a pretty stale genre but you guys are very good at it
gotanerve zine calling those guys metalcore its an insult, this is pure prog metal atitude.
These guys are special for sure, but let's work on our over-reliance of VI- to IVmaj on most songs.
Lots of O, 2, 4 action
pls make a video to that
Wow, man!
Who are these guys???
This song kicks ass!!! 🤘
The whole album pretty much was nice! I still love their Souvenirs album more and I don't know why. This song still my personal favorite in this album especially the outro
😉
ANTARES IS THAT YOU?! :D
Sounds kind of like a periphery song .. so it sounds great haha
I r8 8/8 m8.
