LYRICS
Was it all just a dream or
Was it just the price to pay?
Now I'm left here to pray in silence
And you got what you wanted
I search for meaning when all I used to do was dreaming
Disconsolate, mourning a loss, lonesome at best
Run away, but I can never escape from the pain in my brain
This fucking misery
I need a reason for who we are
I need to breathe throughout the war
I lost faith in myself again
I lost faith in myself again
Just breathe in, just breathe in
And bury me, bury me
Just pretend, just pretend
And run away, run away
(I’m slowly shutting down and)
I can't dеny, that all I do is losing control
You know I can't keep going on, this shit is taking its toll
But I can never escapе, but I can never escape, fuck
But I can never escape, system failure
I need a reason for who we are
I need to breathe throughout the war
I lost faith in myself again
I lost faith in myself again 
Видеоклипы
that outro solo.. Flo is just damn good in creating melodic lines..
It's perfect
So true
Just a reminder to bring this version back to Spotify since my last comment about it got deleted.
No idea what you’re all complaining about.
This is dope.
Lots of people confuse quality for genericism... 🤷♂️ If the chorus is strong, it’s “too pop”, if the rhythms are just cruising and doing their job, it’s “not heavy enough”... if the lead guy holds back in a tasteful way, it’s “not technical enough”...
Like man, being a great musician is about knowing when to jump in and out, and when to simplify, to better benefit the song as a whole. Not just ramming your musical chops down listeners’ throats.
I don’t get the hate either... lol. Lots of solid songwriting, musicality, and cool experimental touches here... progressive structure... it’s good stuff.
@@drummerAVA amen
@@drummerAVA perfectly said.
@@drummerAVA couldn’t have said it better myself
Just whiny people that can't appreciate anything
I fell in love with ALAZKA and then Kassim left and I was heartbroken... Then shortly after, I fell in love with Novelists and Matteo left. Once again I was heartbroken... the fact Tobias from ALAZKA is now with Novelists is so bittersweet. Kind of poetic honestly.
Please don't fall in love with this Novelists 🥺
I'm out of the loop. Did Alazka break up?
Sal3m for me now! I go where the soulful vocals go.
Now Tobias left 😂
Ok I was NOT expecting such a heavy breakdown there lol damn
Me neither haha such a bomb track !
Matteo's voice was what made Novelists what it was, just as the lead guitar makes it so incredible. Let's see if the new vocalists catches on. I'm not a fan right now but who knows. Matteo just had more soul in his voice. This guy, although good, just sounds too generic. No disrespect meant.
Yeah dude
This is a pop song with a savage breakdown.
@@zM00Nx Yes, sadly, this is actually a pop song. The breakdown saved it.
same ! but it was fuckin awesome
"Lost Cause"
Was it all just a dream or
Was it just the price to pay?
Now I'm left here to pray in silence
And You got what you wanted
I search for meaning
When all I used to do was dreaming
Disconsolate, mourning a loss
Lonesome at best
Run away
But I can never escape
From the pain in my brain
This fucking misery
I need a reason for who we are
I need to breath, throughout the war
I lost faith in myself again
I lost faith in myself again
Just breath in
Just breath in
And bury me
And bury me
Just pretend

And run away
And run away
I'm slowly shutting down and
I can't deny, that all I do is losing control
You know I can't keep going on, this shit is taking its toll
But I can never escape
But I can never escape
But I can never escape
System failure
I need a reason for who we are
I need to breath, throughout the war
I lost faith in myself again
I lost faith in myself again...
The hype is real, very happy for Tobias and Novelists! Look forward to listening and jamming this!
Wasn't a fan of the vocals initially, after a few days of listening, I must have listened to this song hundreds of times. Super good. Really grew on me.
I am in love wit this song
Quite the opposite for me, they don't have what i liked in previous albums anymore sort of
Go check out ALAZKA. Tobias is their screamer as well.
Who’s here after they changed the mix and want to listen to the original?
Yes
Me
Is the original the one on Spotify?
@@thejoseandresshow no this is
Just like another one of their joints, “After the Rain”..
bring back this version or ill cry
I keep coming back to this song because it is a masterpiece
How nice it is to hear Tobi sing with such passion, greetings from Venezuela
These comments are a painful reminder of how shitty the metal community can be. This is my introduction to this band and I'm absolutely blown away. The song is fantastic in terms of mixing, structure, tone, vocals, emotion, etc., yet half of the comments here are some backhanded remark about how this song would've been "so much better with the previous vocalist." I understand that change can be hard for people, but have some respect. Imagine how hard it would be to replace a lead vocalist, and how hard it would be for a band that has to reinvent itself after losing its vocalist. And despite all of that, they come out with an airtight banger. This community really has to learn how to just respect and enjoy this amazing music without throwing a temper tantrum any time a song comes out that isn't exactly how you thought it would sound.
I think most of the people are unhappy because we got Alazka instead of Novelists, when the title of the song clearly says Novelists FR.
Any kind of feedback is good for a musician if you ask me.
Same. I've been listening to this song since the middle of December. I have no idea who Alaska is, what their former vocalist sounded like and what people actually complaining about. I'm not into metal and I know how hard it's to get into heavier music. This song is a gate to this world for newcomers and with this introduction they have so much credibility that they have no choice but to succeed
You're overthinking it. As a listener you're not obliged to simp for any band and just suck in everything they do no matter what. That's stupid. Because to my ears and others as well, the old vocalist simply had a much better voice and their previous songs also felt stronger than this. Now I'm hoping their new album will change my mind but atm I don't like the direction they're going. If it turns out to be disappointing then I will simply stop looking forward to their new material. It's still the music that counts.
The original vocalist brought a certain art style to the music. He brought a sort of of ambience. Sounds totally different now.
Honestly a ton of fans were unhappy with the last release which shocked me as it was super good. Some people just can’t be pleased. Shame.
As with the new replacement Tobias brings something great, I was a big fan of Alazka and was torn at the news that they broke up. But good things do happen and good it was. He is a great replacement. Although I do wish Matteo would have stayed. He is doing amazing things with his new project and am glad he is happy.
This mix is so much better than the one on Spotify.
the same here! Much, much more!
Dude, literally!
For real
@@emanuelbroszko9567iii
THANK YOU
For some reason I knew that even when Matteo left, this band would still be producing amazing stuff. I was not mistaken.
wait when did he left Novelists?
@@CallOfTheVoid06 April
Probably because they’re talented musicians and their success was not all because of Matteo? Lmao what is this comment...
@@mr_KLOB oh yeah, when I saw your reply I checked their FB page and saw their post about Matteo leaving Novelists and they're good with it and I also stomped upon his new band Salem.
Idk, the novelist from 5 years ago are the best ones, this is just like another band totally different
Anyone else notice the remaster of this track?
The solo is the most tasteful I’ve heard in a loooong while!
Overall, one of the best songs of 2020.
CHANGE MY MIND
Def was my favorite song all of 2020
So glad Tobi found a new home, absolutely loved Alazka and this will definitely at least fill the void left by Alazka breaking up. 💜
I still miss Kassim tho.
@@alexo2303 I 100% agree
I was gutted when Alazka broke up. Like my heart was torn to pieces, to shreds. But this is good, Tobias is still killing it! This is such a good song!
Love this song, Tobi’s range is crazy, Camille definitely does it justice too
This song literally took me straight to 2021. I'm literally blown away by this.
I loved Alazka, and I loved Matteo's voice.
The mix of both with Tobias in Novelists makes me happy. I can understand why people are nostalgic or confused by Tobias singing, but trust me lads: Give him a chance, he won't disappoint you. He's an absolute monster when it comes to vocals, and from what I'm used from him, that's totally different from what he usually do. Let them try new things, let them bloom in their new sound, and you will see why Tobias was the best choice.
Beside that, Florestan, Amael and Nicolas, you have exceed my expectations, cheers to you lads ! I'm looking forward your next album !
Please give us the option to get that mix version in high quality I will pay for it
Deserves a minimum million views
They blended Novelist and Alazka perfectly
Dude, Florestan never disappoints me!
Okay, this is incredible.
3:08 - 3:48
Theres just something about cars we as humans seem to feel comfortable enough to have some of our lowest moments in. I know I have and this video captures it perfectly
I'm looking forward to hearing Tobi with the boys
Coming back to say that solo has been stuck in my head on repeat like every 45 minutes since its debut. Crazy good solo.
It is not a stretch at all to state that Flo is the most underrated soloist of all time. His outro's are phenomenal!
They aren't Novilists FR anymore, now they are Novilists Alaska
Alazka
@@sebsharpe7785 I ignore that namechange, for me they will always be "Burning Down Alaska" ^^
Ok. Well, this is kinda different.
I can't say I don't feel like Matt's voice is missing on this one, cause it was the thing that made Novelists sound different from other metalcore bands TO ME.
Now don't get me wrong, I absolutely love this version of the band too, and I look forward to hearing from them. It's just that I'm a bit nostalgic I guess lol
Exactly same feeling here...
@@digrz Same here. The note Matt's voice has given to the band was breathtaking. Now it will be hard for me as a fan of their music to get along with the new vibe. But I will give it a try!
Exactly same here. Its not the novelist i know and love but Il try and see it as a new thing
It's because it's missing those catchy ass techy riffs
Saaaame. Its like he took a part of novelist away with him when he left.
this song is very good
but i need more novelists style riffs
same
@Lee McDabney he does though lmao
Easily the best song from 2020. Incredible.
I like this mix more than spotify etc one
maybe its unfair to say that, but i'm digging this more than the old stuff.
I’d have to agree
I disagree, their old sound had an awesome vibe plus, Matteo's vocals are just too fucking great, this is still good tho and I'm looking to what they'll put out in the future.
I like this waaaaay more I didn't like novelist at all before this not to say I thought they were bad just not my thing I much prefer this sound and can't wait for more
@@gamingwithgeekwares4416 I don't know, for me personally their sound was a lot more unique, lyrical wise and instrumentation wise their previous materials were more solid in my opinion(tracks like the light the fire, Heal the Wound, Echoes, Ouroboros, Antares,Head Rush and etc were really amazing) but well, to each their own.
This is good but terrorist is a step back in my opinion but it’s still quality shit in the end
TOBIAS !!!!!!!!!!!! 🔥🔥🔥
The comments of every single song nowadays. No one can just enjoy music or the artists and what they are conveying. This is beautiful. In the worst way. Absolutely a gem.
i dont wanna categorise this song to any genre.this is perfect.imo
With all due respect to Mattéo & Charlie, this is PEAK Novelists! Holy sh*t!
Tobias' clean voice is so good!
HUGEEEEEEE!!!
I was expecting new Novelists and got new Burning down Alaska instead... It's a good thing I guess, but I need to get used to it a bit, the signature Novelists sound is kind of missing to me. Still a banger don't get me wrong and class solo as usual.
My thougth exactly. Not a bad song, but not really what I hoped to hear from then. I miss the earlier, more technical stuff, but I guess they moved on from that.
The only thing thats like them at all is the ending solo. Rest of it sounds like sold out trash, they use to write such creative stuff too such a shame
@@idiot_city5244 I didn't wanna say it, but this sounds like one of the dime a dozen new metalcore/risecore bands you find these days aside from the cool solo at the end. Still, great musicians they'll always be and the new vocalist is doing well, but I dunno, I already miss Souvenirs and Noir era Novelists. Last album was pretty good too. But who knows, maybe they got more technical songs stored up outside the singles
@@aninfinitemindofmusicandreamsYeah even in their latest album singles like Head Rush and Somebody else they never let go of the technical riffs right from the very start... so this one really hits different but as I said it's still a great song to me and who knows what's ahead. I actually loved Burning down alaska years ago
@@ViOlentO95 Are you awake? The creativity/commercial shift can be heard from a mile away. Support that and watch all the bands you came to love drop off and go radio friendly. How do you like their new single? Right.
This has grown on me so much. I honestly like this better than the last album. I can't wait to hear more !
This has some Alazka vibes , I love it
Does that solo give anyone else goosebumps? Damn
that chorus into solo is ridiculous....
Where's NOVEMVRKS ?
I need to exporter les basses fadoli, but I have not le temps :(
@@nicola94240 😂😂😂😂
Over here!
@@nicola94240 I think you devrais find le temps because nous voulons really entendre les new chansons :)
Novalazka, I like novelists, alazka and landmarks, all of them
sYsTeM fAiL 💪😲
WHY THEE HECK COULD. THEY NOT HAVEE THIS KIND OF PRODUCTION WITH MATT!!!!!!!!! GRRRRRRRR CRISP AS F UNEXPECTED BREAKDOWN FILTYYY!!!!!!!!
As a guitarist myself. THANK YOU for that soulful solo!!!! THAT BEING SAID this entire song was incredible!!! The vocals the mix, the drums the bass the rhythm guitar the synths everything. New fan!
I'm nostalgic for Alazka, but this is the best that could happen
What would be equally good is that goode ole novelists sound we will likely never hear again. Where's our light the torch, Matteo. They are named Salem. Just saiyan
You hatin?
@@yuripavlov2761 kinda. But not really. Matteo got kadinja's guitarist. Kinda ended the whole hate train.
@@ColeVickSheepShearer Correction: Sal3m (5 singles released till Apr 2021). Still within the Arise Empire, sounding the same!
Novelists FR will get a completely new fanbase now! Hope you guys don't phase yourselves out organically like RED & Mark Tremonti did.
@@purplefizz32 5? I know love is a wonderful lie,1 divise,2 fucking easy,3 walking on water,4 cant remember 5 off my head
This is one of the best songs I've ever heard
MAN I MISS LIVE CONCERTS
I think the new singer really matches the band. The cleans are so Novelists and so are of course the epic guitars. True Djentlemen! Crazy Band. 😍
I didnt even know Matteo left😭 I absolutely loved his singing. But this new guy doesn't disappoint♥️
He started new band called Sal3m
Amazing. Just amazing. I have been a fan of this band before, and truth be told, i was really upset about a loss of the previous vocalist. But this guy proved himself as an amazing singer. Powerful, appeals to emotions, good transition. You people need to respect a good music and effort that they obviously have put in. To the band; Keep up a good work, i will be waiting for more of your stuff. Thank you.
I could listen to that solo every day of my life
If you’re complaining.about this you’re just a baby who can’t move on. This is amazing🔥
Revisited this on Spotify and it sounds different... guess they reuploaded a different version? It's not bad, but I preferred the original.
same
Ok, I was soo sad when I heard that ALAZKA was disbanding. But this makes me happy again!
Say what?
i actually gonna ask if that was Tobias thanks for answering my question.
ALAZKA broke up????
@@JuanCruzFabi yep
@@yelonasable That's breaks my heart
This chorus is so good it brings me to tears.
That outro really put some pain in my chest. Incredible.
GIVE ME THE ALBUMMMMMMMMMMMM !
MY BODY IS READY.
I thought it was just a single only
TooLitMafia sent me here for another 10 listens. This song is KILLER.
This song and this band is very unique. I mean, I heard a lot of metal in my day and nothing has ever come close to this band right here. I love their style and there is not one song by them I didn't like. So awesome!
🤘❤️
From Thailand🇹🇭
This song exceeded my expectations. Tobias was a great choice of vocalist
Let’s hope this is just the first of many things to come.
Ainda sinto falta dos vocais melancólicos do Matteo,mas esse cara é muito bom também
@@JalimRabeikkkkk Sim, o Matteo é maravilhoso.
Tobias tinha a banda Alazka.
Holy shit that brutal part came out of nowhere! I thought this whole song was just gonna have that emotional epic journey feel it started with, but nope, no emotional epic journey is complete without some brutal darkness.
Still cant get over how good this song is
Metal meets EDM and Chillstep ❤️❤️❤️❤️
I actually really like this song. It doesn’t sound like Novelists, though. Not bad, just different
Nail on the head, I don't think they could of found a better replacement but matteo is just very unique they had a vibe
Alazka was phenomenal
to be frank, it sounds like alazka.
@@benjaminstewart4051 definitely starts that way for sure.
The guitar also gave me alazka vibes at the end.
Did they update the sound on Spotify? Sounds different than it used to
Seems like they remixed all the new singles
Yes they did. Liked the old Version better
@@Saul-ee2eo yeah I did too. New sounds clunky and somewhat over produced
Ohh gaaad ohhh maaaaaan oooh goooood ohhh maaaaaaannn!!!
That solo damn
I knew you guys would drop something amazing but holy hell!!! This surpassed all expectations... Out of this world!
if Novelists, Alazka and Kingdom of Giants had a baby
Blows my mind how unknown this song is still. One of the best I’ve ever heard
This track has yet to get old for me. I get emotional every time I return. Thank you for this masterpiece. ❤️
WOW!
Just amazing! The song is sooo cool!
I was scared with Matteo departure, but with Tobias and this song I'm confiant for Novelists' future!
And what about the video! It's crazy! I love the atmospheres, the lights, the colors!
Welldone guys!
yo this is my first time hearing novelists and this song is so sick! playing it on repeat!
That breakdown is NASTY. It gave me goosebumps. That’s rare. I can’t wait for more.
I think this sounds nice
Ça fait tellement plaisir de voir un groupe français sortir un chef d'œuvre de metalcore 😍🤘
sounds like NOVELISTS & ALAZKA combined 😁👍🏻
goosebumps....
That breakdown........... oh my............
I can't stop listening this song.
I really love this! Tobias is a great vocalist, I'm excited for more songs. ❤️
Killer album. Thank you Novelists FR.
I absolutely freaking love this
So I too “miss” novelists original sound, BUT GUYS bands evolve and grow. That’s the whole point. I love this new sound just like I love the “old” one. They are both unique and beautiful in their own ways and wanting them to mimic Matt’s energy would make their music fake. No one can replace Matt, but the energy here is the start of something amazing.
By evolve you mean become generic. It's not growth if its backwards, they devolved.
Never understood why taking another exit equals growth or progress for bands. That song isn't Novelists and every fan has the right to complain and turn around. That's the fate of an artist. Find fans, lose fans.
I‘ve been listening to Novelists since the beginning and imo this is their best song 🔥. I am literally crying
Lol no.
Ruok Yeah, but that's your opinion and not mine.
Great song indeed but I wouldn't consider it their best, majority of the songs in Souvenir and Noir are better, but as you said, different opinions.
3 years later … still great 😁
tre film at it again, absolutely stunning!
AWESOME!!!
Les gars je serai derrière mon PC à 13h! En confiance, jamais déçu jusqu'à présent y a pas de raison que ça commence maintenant!
Pareil 🤟
Du lourd , ya qd même 109 fatigués qui aime pas , qu'ils aillent se pendre 🤣🤣🤣 je surkiff depuis le 1er album
NICE \m/
Не думал что следишь за Alazka и Novelist)
@@AkaDarkCezar слежу и даже люблю
@@ROCK_NEWS почему новостей не видно тогда за них?))
Tobias is still in music! Thank goodness, because his scream is so good!
This song is freaking amazing. I love the journey the music and the melodies take you on. SO GOOD.
