Как мне кажется, совершенно незаслуженно забытая и неизвестная широкому кругу слушателей группа Lost In Tears выдала, пожалуй, лучший диск в своей непродолжительной истории. Финны могли бы при достаточно удачной раскрутке составить весьма солидную конкуренцию тем же Darkseed и Crematory. Хотя собственных идей у команды не так много, последний альбом группы «To No Avail» - звучит весьма интересно и качественно. Начало альбома изобилует преимущественно быстрыми и среднетемповыми композициями. К середине альбома Lost In Tears начинают играть некое подобие готик-дума, погружение в который исполнено весьма к месту и не создаётся впечатления резкой смены настроения, именно эта часть альбома мне понравилась больше всего, особенно инструментальная композиция "Loss" и песня с очень красивой мелодией "Felicity". Альбом как мне кажется, заслуживает того, что бы на него обратили внимание, не только из-за красиво выполненной обложки, но и из-за внутреннего содержания CD. Диск должен понравиться не только фанатам классического готик-метала, но и поклонникам дума, так как вокалист Lost In Tears поёт в чём-то схожей манере с лидером легендарной британской группы My Dying Bride - Аароном Стэйнторпом. Купил данный альбом по рекомендации и ни сколько не пожалел. По моему мнению, рекомендовано к прослушиванию. |

I'm on the way back home again
I've come so close to the fire
And I keep on getting higher
I'm dancing on the way
Towards my grave
I've come so close to the sun
That all is said and done
I'm burning up in pain
I'm born again
[Chorus]
No god can save me but you can easily
Keep my heart warm and tame my agony
No god can kill me, my goddess this is no lie
If you should leave me, I would surely die
[Chorus]
2. Break Me Down
Make me smile, make me weep
From your cage I set you free
Make me wake, make me sleep
Your warm smile all I can see
Make me creep, make me crawl
But one taste and all is gone
Make me stand, make me fall
In your command I am till dawn
[Chorus]
Break me down
From within
Break me down
Being without
Can I win, will I loose
In your poison I will drown
What the hell, what's the use
I can't make it on my own
[Chorus]
3. Metamorphosis
Destiny pulled us together
Under a shooting star
I thought this would last forever
But destiny disagreed and pulled us apart
Faith made us lovers
Under a burning star
I thought my pain was over
But faith disagreed and broke my heart
I was born with the devil, now I'm dying with an angel
I was born in hell but now I die in heaven
I lived among the evil until I discovered you
But now you live with someone new
And he loves you...
Karma showed us Eden
Under a flaming star
I thought my soul was mended
But karma disagreed and now it's scared
4. Betrayed
Betrayed by my heart
I never could doubt your words
Though I got hurt every time
Betrayed by my trust
A poor guard against swords
That cut deeper time after time
Betrayed by my faith
I saw the knife in your hand
Still I turned my back to you
Betrayed by my lust
How could I not understand
None of it was true
No more betrayal
Never agan
No more deceit
5. Loss
There is a void deep down in me
A hollow space where my heart used to be
I have searched for it to no avail
I've tried to love but always fail
An empty shell deprived of hope
A man hanged without a rope
A faint shadow of who I once was
My life a reminder of my loss
6. Assurance
Would you hold me for a moment
Would you hold me for a while
Could you alleviate my torment
That I again could feel alive
Would you hold me for a moment
Would you hold me one more time
Could you mend my disappointment
That I could leave this shit behind
[Chorus]
Do you love me, do you love me like before
Do you love me, do you love me anymore
Have you loved me, have you loved me at all
Can you assure me, do you love me forever more
Would you hold me for a moment
Would you hold me in embrace
Could you confirm my misjudgement
So my sorrow would be erased
[Chorus]
Alone and cold again
I've walked astray
I can't go on like this
Does love exist...
[Chorus]
7. She Died
Beautiful rose with a bloody nose
Beautiful bride with a black eye
Beautiful angel she flew and fell
Straight into the pits of hell
She flew straight in the flames of hell
Beautiful rose with torn up clothes
Beautiful bride she died
Beautiful angel she flew and fell
Straight into the pits of hell
She flew straight in the flames of hell
8. Nothin More Nothing Less
The more we see, the more we need Possessed and haunted by our greed
The more we want, the more we lie The more we get, the more we crave
One step closer to our grave The more we want, the more we die Blood,
Sweat and tears Fades away and disappears Reaching for the sun and
Moon With the long lost silver spoon Good intentions fade away You
Kill yourselves, you're killing me You kill humanity Only me, myself
And I Is tattooed to your mind And no one shall survive The more we
see, the more we take And all that's real turns into fake The more we
want, the more we lie The more we get, the more we lust And getting
More becomes a must The more we want, the more we die
9. Shooting Star
Again I am alone
Watching sorrow reign
Your sweet laughter's gone
And all I feel is pain
Wrapped up in bitterness
I'm going insane...
[Chorus]
I wish that you'd fly back
Just like you flew away
'Cause now my world is black
And I am so afraid
I wish that you'd return
To my empty arms
And again we'll burn
My little shooting star
Again I am a mess
Searching for someone to blame
You left me in distress
You left me in pain
Wrapped up in sickness
I'm going insane...
[Chorus]
Can't face another day without you
Without your love
Can't face another night without you
Without your love
Can't maintain sane without you
Without your love
Can't shake this pain away without you
Without your love
10. Felicity
I'm searching for a flower
Within this desert storm
Beauty for my mind
Something worth living for
I'm looking for a flower
Within this rain of snow
Beauty for my soul
That I lost a long time ago
I'm searching for a flower
Within this land of fire
Beauty for my senses
A feeling I desire
I'm looking for a flower
Without it I am blind
Beauty for my eyes
And I search 'til we're combined
I see you as a star
So beautiful but so far
I hope to meet you one day
But you're so far away
...my felicity
We hold hands every night
But say goodbye at the birth of light
I hope that you were reality
And here to stay
...my felicity
Do you even exist
11. Summer Rain
I'm often standing under
Lightning, rain and raging thunder
Although it's sunny outside
Storms approach I can not hide
Clouds gather all around me
I feel so little, scared and lonely
Thor swings his hammer trough my head
The pain strikes, I wish that I was dead
[Chorus]
Oh, summer rain, come fall on me
Yes come again, come fall on me
Wash out my pain, come fall on me
Oh, summer rain, come fall on me
Gravity is getting stronger
I do not know if I can take this no longer
Dripping wet and freezing cold
I'm trapped in myself and want to unfold
Please, someone notice me
'Cause I'm too weak, too tired to scream
Am I the only one
Who lost the summer and the sun
[Chorus]
