Great players with tons of hooks and melancholic melodies. The song has some pretty unexpected turns as well and is just as epic as it rocks". Frederick Thunder comments: "In the video we wanted to show this metaphorically by having the 4 band members blindfolded and tied to chairs in front of an interrogator who is abusing them psychologically and threatening them with physical violence" the band explains and continues: The interrogator represents mental health and depression issues, while the band members struggling and trying to stand up to him, represent the inner struggle that people have against those demons. In the video, we wanted to include this as part of a wider narrative, shot cinematically like a short movie. Towards the end of the video, there is a plot twist, as we see the interrogator blindfolded sitting on a chair on his own, and replaying the previous sequence entirely on his own, implying that he’d been the one sitting alone all this time struggling with his inner demons."

Thunder, lights and wind and rain Are all it takes to keep me burning One more shot to keep me sane Another red light burning in my brain I’m in hell no I won’t apologise I’m in hell but I still got heaven in my sights I’m in hell no I won’t apologise I’m in hell but I still believe in heaven I can see the future fade away And the world around me feels so empty It’s all gone in a moment Another spirit laid to rest I don’t want to live another day I’m a rocket burning up on entry So alive, but so wasted Please give me sanctuary Breaking down, all the screams and shouts all the dreams of mercy, who’s pretending? No one cares if I crash without a sound... And I never wake up! Thunder lights and wind and rain Are all it takes to keep me burning One more shot to keep me sane The dawn escapes, the roads keep turning Silence in a crowded room Took the hits without complaining Rather me than all of you Another red light burning in my brain [PRE-CHORUS] [CHORUS] Silent screaming I’ve come up for air And as I stop to catch my breath I see you standing there Your light’s still shining But the darkness steals the brightest stars And the shadows on our souls Conceal the darkest scars It goes on and… Looking back at the endless black and the times I tried to make things better Some things pass but somethings are meant to last... And they never let up! [CHORUS] I don’t want to live another day I’m a rocket burning up and now I can fly away And stay this-way-forever... #Neonfly #NobleDemon #AlternativeMetal
