In Flames - Vacuum Lyrics






The yesterday we loved speak of tomorrow
The burden of man is that time never takes a pause
We live from Monday to Sunday but we forget what it means
Then a ghost comes to visit and we tell stories from tabloids

Call all your friends
Watch fake photos
From a made up vacation
Speaking in tongues about ancient artifacts

We steal from beggars and ask for understanding
We lie, rape, steal and murder to make tonights headlines

Trust the system
Make your contribution
Smile, applaud, love, hail
The weaker you get the stronger they become

Listen in silence
Hear a voice
How far are we ready to take this?

Listen in silence
Hear a voice
Before it all crumbles

Lie, rape, steal and murder
Smile, applaud, love, hail

Gather in front of the TV
Exploding sympathy
The weatherman, our trust
Our punctual company

We steal from beggars and ask for understanding
We lie, rape, steal and murder to make tonights headlines

Trust the system
Make your contribution
Smile, applaud, love, hail
The weaker you get the stronger they become

Listen in silence
Hear a voice
How far are we ready to take this?

Listen in silence
Hear a voice
Before it all crumbles

Lie, rape, steal and murder, smile, applaud, love, hail

Listen in a silence, hear a voice
How far are we ready to take this?
Listen in silence, hear a voice
Before it all crumbles

  47. 7.... ....

    im really tired of people knocking bands cuz of genre... who the fuck really cares? if anyones a poser, its you and your facist brutality whoring! if you were a REAL metalhead, you wouldnt fucking CARE, youd just fucking love it. but youre caught up in your image basis, running around screaming like idiots that its "not brutal enough" or "its not metal because i said so". well no one fucking cares what you have to say... metal doesnt belong to you.

  48. �.... �....

    In Flames 4 ever

  49. d.... ....

    Folks, I have never actually claimed this is nu metal. I said: "At first I thought...", meaning I listened to the first five seconds, thought it was just incoherent shouting and skipped to the next track. It was only after a while that I took my time to listen to the whole song, and that was when my jaw dropped to the floor in amazement, and now those "first five seconds" are a vital part of the piece of art called "Vacuum". "Don't judge anything by it's first appearance" is the moral of it all.

  50. r.... r....

    they don't possess a bad song

  51. l.... ....

    In Flames !!!!!

  52. J.... V....

    inflames fucking rules

  57. T.... ....

  58. K.... ....

    @ArturoNeongenesis I think the song says "rape, steal and murder" not "still in Mordor" :D

  59. m.... ....

    This Comment Is Going To Get Random Thumbs Up.

  63. S.... P....

    The blastbeats at the end are such a tease. Dan can do some impressive as fuck blasts yet he holds back so much. It's good enough without them, but it'd be even more so with, naw'mean?

  64. g.... ....

    @theNightDevilBlack ... did you even read his comment?

  65. A.... G....

    So... a 20+ year old band's sound is counted as nu metal? O_o Honest question not trying to be a smart ass...

  66. R.... G....

    @MrPotatoNoggin They all are :P I especially like the way the guitar player plays.. some style that I'd love to have too. Plus their guitars are F###### awesome. I play an Ibanez RG Prestige and it rocks too but somehow those ESP guitars have something.. which makes me say like: NOHHHHHH

  70. V.... V....

    @dwlnk ahhahahaha "If Dream Theater had done "Vacuum", it would have lasted 25+ minutes" hahaha TRUE TRUE! :P
    In Flames is awesome! :D

    IN FLAMES WE TRUST!

    HOW FAR ARE WE READY TO TAKE THIS?

    IN FLAMES WE TRUST!
    ESTONIA!

    @logiebear666
    This is Melodic Metal-core if you wanted to be a technical genre fag.

    Their older stuff was Melodic Death Metal and paved the way for many other bands.
    But like all great musicians, they broaden their horizons and develop/experiment with other styles/genres -- which they seem to have done great with this.

  79. M.... ....

    this song is ridicilously good

  80. 3.... ....

    in flames r just godlike

  81. W.... ....

    @dwlnk doesnt sound anything like Nu-metal IMO, but okey.
    lol'd at the dream theater comment

  82. V.... ....

    I often hear people that say that Metal of all kinds aren't music, it's just a bunch of guys that take an instrument att give what they have on it while some random dude is screaming in the microphone.

    Boy, do I want to hit them with a rock.
    Every other sort of music is just rubbish.
    In Metal and all other sorts of Metal are the only genre that the band-members are skilled with the instrument, and the signer know how to growl and sing clean.

  83. T.... ....

    But you know that In Flames are Melodic Death Metal right??

  84. J.... H....

    under the influence right now \nn/

  85. B.... ....

    i love this song.

  86. c.... ....

    Best song on this album by far. Old school

  87. #.... p....

    IN FLAMES WE TRUST

    Greetings from Hungary

  88. S.... L....

    They managed to get it feelin' really oldschool with the guitar solo and everything, plus the lyrics are freakyish and I love the first fifty-seconds, speed for the win.

  89. L.... C....

    IN FLAMES WE FUCKING TRUST
    fucking awesome shit

  90. d.... ....

    At first I thought this song was the the most terrible piece of nu metal shit I had ever heard, but once I listened it to the final note, I realized how brilliantly composed it actually was.
    If Dream Theater had done "Vacuum", it would have lasted 25+ minutes, but In Flames managed to fit a whole spectrum of emotions in less than four minutes. (It´s a fantastic song, and it´s absolutely heavenly if you listen to it while "under the influence"... :D)

    I love (and several of the songs from this album seem to do it) how this song builds to the chorus then just explodes. Very intense, and amazingly constructed.
