A SIMPLE MISTAKE

think for yourself you know what you need in this life
see for yourself and feel your soul come alive tonight
here in the moment we share, trembling between the worlds we stare
out at starlight enshrined, veiled like diamonds in..

...time can be the answer, take a chance, lose it all
it's a simple mistake to make to create love and to fall
so rise and be your master you don't need to be a slave
of memory ensnared in a web, in a cage

i have found my way to fly free from the constraints of time
i have soared through the sky seen life far below in mind
breathed in truth, love, serene, sailed on OCEANS OF BELIEF
searched and found life inside, we're not just a moment in time...

....can be the answer, take a chance lose it all
it's a simple mistake to make to create love and to fall
so rise and be your master you don't need to be a slave
of memory ensnared in a web, in a cage



there's a real cool text on website so you should all check it www.anathema.ws

Got it yesterday, I really liked it. Better than "Everything"...darker and powerfull. Lyrics are great. Been listenin to it non stop
Check it out!
Cheers,

Thanks for the link, Fateful. What a great song!!!
I have to agree, its better than 'everything' imo, so strong...
It even made me donate as much as I can spare at the moment.

 

[Vincent J.]

I don't like it, after my first listen

It reminds me of the last few songs of 'a natural disaster' (except for violence) and I find those very boring...

 

[Cerulean]

MUCH much better than Everything.

It's got a very post rock feel to it... You can obviously hear they've been Mogwai-inspired lately

 

[Demonspell]

This one renewed my faith in Anathema after Everything, great atmosphere on this track and I agree that there's a huge post-rock influence.

 

[affinityband]

Im actually not a fan of Anathema at all, but this is great.

 

[Cerulean]

Wow can't stop listening. Good lyrics, good FX, good melodies, and NOT cheesy unlike Everything.

 

[FatefuL]

killer! YES ! better than everything altough i liked it so mutch too ( love simplistic stuff )

godly track !

 

[Alcapoth]

Fateful, THANKS SO MUCH for this post. Man, you have made my day - this new Anathema song is absolutely TERRIFIC! I agree with the majority here, FAR superior to the previous "Everything" (which disappointed me.)

This is good news for me now, I'm totally psyched about this forthcoming release and will now do everything in my power to support the group. I should have anyway considering they are one of my all-time fave bands, but now this song gives me hope for the new album and they do in fact deserve it.


Wow, 6 times in a row listening to it as soon as I downloaded it. The tune, there is just something "ethereal" about it - I can't seem to stop listening to it. I just LOVE the atmosphere and mood that it brings out to me.


Once again, thanks for the post and link. I don't think I'd make myself come across it otherwise (having lost all faith in this band, until now.)


edit: ^^^ Haha, I share Cerulean's sentiments exactly - just came across that...damn good song indeed!

 

[Androz]

I really liked it, but I liked Everything too

 

[°scarlet°]

... lovely

 

[Iivil]

I´m not so crazy about Everything but this new one sounds better.

 

[FatefuL]

wow.. new cute gal fan up there /\

 

[Vincent J.]

lol, I'll give it another listen tommorow, since everyone is liking it...
hm...strange...

 

[AngelinaBlakkheim]

Very good, I like it very much. Love the lyrics.

 

[Alyona]

I love it! Can't wait to see anathema live again in a few months time.

[Vincent J.]

ok, I like the song much more today than I did yesterday...
I probably had my mind on other things...
anyway, I like it yeah

 

[BlueSky]

I like the new song a lot but I can't say the same for everything.

 

[Cerulean]

Judgement, Angelica, Silent Enigma, Dying Wish, Kingdom, Memento Mori, Empty, etc... All good songs, and they range from doom metal to their modern sound
