I’ve featured two songs by Delain in this series so far; time for a third!
This one is from their debut album Lucidity again, called “Silhouette of a Dancer”.
I really like this song for its mix of symphonic and progressive elements; the second half of the piece, where it progresses through several different styles/atomspheres, is particularly nice.
Featured lyrics:
Waiting for a change
I can’t fight these chains everyday
I bleed to avoid the pain
Everyday I fade a little more
Full lyrics can be found here.
Delain also released a shorter, acoustic version of the song, on their single See Me In Shadow; it’s also quite beautiful:
There's Waldo!
