The Chosen Pessimist Lyrics - In Flames
Review The Song (7)
Tell me which side I'm on,
Approaching constant failure..
Tell me which side I'm on,
Who's friend or foe?
Approaching constant failure...
Between love and hate
Which path to follow?
How can I keep balance in this race?
Come faith, I'm dying... Slowly
In many ways I'm the burden that divides us from the light,
In many ways you're the halo that keeps my spirit alive.
Temptation,
Play the good or evil part,
With me, you evoke the dark,
Nothing's real...
...Watch me heal
Tell me which side I'm on,
Approaching constant failure..
Between love and hate
Which path to follow?
How can I keep balance in this race?
Come faith, I'm dying...
Amused by the trials and tribulations,
If I survive I fly from here,
But as The Chosen Pessimist
I carve my name in stone
I... carve my name in stone
[Amused by the trials and tribulations]
[If I survive I fly from here]
How can I keep balance in this race?
[But as the chosen pessimist]
Come faith, I'm dying...
Approaching constant failure..
Tell me which side I'm on,
Who's friend or foe?
Approaching constant failure...
Between love and hate
Which path to follow?
How can I keep balance in this race?
Come faith, I'm dying... Slowly
In many ways I'm the burden that divides us from the light,
In many ways you're the halo that keeps my spirit alive.
Temptation,
Play the good or evil part,
With me, you evoke the dark,
Nothing's real...
...Watch me heal
Tell me which side I'm on,
Approaching constant failure..
Between love and hate
Which path to follow?
How can I keep balance in this race?
Come faith, I'm dying...
Amused by the trials and tribulations,
If I survive I fly from here,
But as The Chosen Pessimist
I carve my name in stone
I... carve my name in stone
[Amused by the trials and tribulations]
[If I survive I fly from here]
How can I keep balance in this race?
[But as the chosen pessimist]
Come faith, I'm dying...

This is the kind of song that is at its best if you really sit down tight, just listening to the music and think deep. The lyrics and tones are so incredibly well put. it gave me goosebumps :) one of their very best songs!

See the song in this way>>>Hes chosen pessimist he tries to enter the history,tries to make some good things in this world but he constatly fails cause ppl dont see it,and hes asking him self if hes walking the good path,hes constantly alone cause no ones normal can understand him cause hes chosen...
WOW | Reviewer: Donal Magee | 12/29/09
this song is amazing but even at that it has one flaw... the intro it is simply too long if it got shortened it would possibly be suitable for radio play but above that if they did remove the long over winded intro it wouldn't be such a masterpiece
In Flames melted my cold heart | Reviewer: SwedishMetal | 12/18/09
A simple and calm riff that explodes at the end with alot of emotions. Anders voice sounds calm and close, warm and full. The music is full of energy and closed anger. At the end i just wanna scream with the guitars and hammer down with the drums! I strongly recommend this to anyone, its gold.
Wow... | Reviewer: VeritasAmor | 11/1/09
I started listening to In Flames by a deal that I made with my ex. I went on a whim and didn't know if I would like them as much as I like HIM, but I was VERY surprised. I am now IN LOVE with In Flames. Every song is put together so well, and Anders is a hell of a song writer, and singer. This song hit me so hard I teared up. I'm a fan for life now.

Anders reminds me John Davis a little in this song actually...The way he sings here is really close, I's like giving us the same kinds of emotions as Jonathan Davis does.
This is such an amazing track.
Can't wait to see it live in a couple of week!

Simple rift, playing throughout the song, alternative instruments(which i cannot name) play through the rift, renewing the beat from time to time, Making the song gentle on the ears. The song kicks through the soundroof in the end. A valid ending to the lyrics.
The lyrics are genius. The music is also Genius.
I love this track. Repeat,repeat,repeat,repeat,repeat.
