Novelists - Voyager Lyrics






I left behind me the comfort of a normal life
Traded it all for my sake
I never questioned my choice, or even felt that I should
It's always crystal-clear

I spent more time in this room to write all this
Than with my family and all my friends
I traded my everything
To feel free to walk my own path

I won't be the one who forget his dreams
I'll make sure to remember them
I'll take a glance at the Earth
When I'll be on the roofs of the world

The dream will be mine
For now I wanna be the one who lead his life
I might have took the longest way to leave my dream
But every miles will bring me closer to it

I'll build it all of my bare hands
Will follow the sun on its journey
I wanna tame this heart which is mine
Feel that I'm leading my life

I hold the key in my hands

I left behind me the comfort of a normal life
Traded it all for my sake (I never felt a regret)
I never questioned my choice, or even felt that I should
It's always crystal-clear

These lines that I write are the mirror of my soul
Like a letter to this kid who played alone

Now... this kid do feel like a man
He bear the weight of his dreams
Stands just before your eyes
He found a meaning at his life

He wanna know...
He wanna know what this life can bring him
He wanna know where this road will lead
So take him away and show him places he'd never seen

I remember the promise that I have made to myself
The kid I was has grown up, but all his dreams stayed the same
The souvenirs of his words linger inside of my head
It's like crystal-clear

This is us versus the fate

I wanna know...
I wanna know what this damn life can be
I wanna see where the road will lead
So take me away and show me these places I've never seen

I left behind me the comfort of a normal life
Traded it all for my sake
I

Novelists Voyager Comments
  1. S.... O....

    I have played this literally 100s of times in year 2020.

  2. M.... H....

    I absolutely love this song so much. Coming back to listen at only 23 years old, this is the kind of music I need to remind me that I have my own life to lead and decide for. Will always appreciate this song and the Souvenirs album. Thank you Novelists for this beautiful music.

  3. m.... ....

    still banging 2020!!

  4. A.... S....

    I love them.... but... maybe it is me... but I can't understand a single word...during the screams.... LOL

    A.... S....

    Since they are from France, the accent on top of the screams does make it hard to make the lyrics out. Had the same problem when I first got into this band lol, but I got used to it quick. Such a badass band honestly, hope to see them tour in the US some time. One of the few bands who’s lyrics and music I could really relate to on a full scale.

  5. F.... D....

    I love when Youtube recommend me awesome music. You guys you're amazing keep going <3

  6. M.... ....

    I love what this band brings to the table, my only cavil is that without a lyrical aide it is impossible to know what the vocalist is saying. (Yes I'm aware English is not his native language)

  7. J.... ....

    And we love that you guys are french that's SO cool that you do metal core songs! Love You Guys!

  8. J.... ....

    Please make another album me my brother and my dad love you guy's es music!

  9. C.... B....

    Holy.. this one's a masterpiece. Somehow I have to take a break when the song ended, what a ride

  10. P.... B....

    I was watching porn...then saw this and continued to jerk off .. 0_o

  11. K.... C....

    That intro.

  12. T.... ....

    The dumb dumb got sand in his sweater 😂 but overall this songs pretty tight!

  13. N.... I....

    😍😍😍

  14. B.... _....

    This song slaps so hard...been bumpin their last 2 albums for about a month now.

  15. C.... K....

    Those chords are beautiful 😯

  16. A.... A....

    how the fuck does he do that half screamo half singing thing

  17. O.... K....

    0:04 Everything Wrong With...

  18. V.... S....

    Amazing lyrics! So deep and meaningful

  19. D.... V....

    they are god damn good, boi

  20. D.... T....

    The cleans remind me of deaf havana a bit.

  21. l.... ....

    I just thought my League of Legends queue popped. I dont play league anymore, over a year now. Whats wrong with me

  22. i.... ....

    Sound like all other songs made by novelists. pity=(

  23. c.... a....

    Novelists is what alexisonfire should have been instead of quitting. Thank you from the bottom of my heart guys!

  24. G.... S....

    I swear these guys sound like a cross between Kadinja and The Word Alive. They're so good.

  25. n.... ....

    Anyone this tuning? I'm thinking just a low B string but I have no clue. I love the tone! If anyone knows it'll be appreciated! :)

    n.... ....

    7 string. AEADGBE :)

    n.... ....

    Arron Carter thanks bro

  26. C.... ....

    just thought I was watching cinema sins from that sound effect in the beginning^^
    fucking amazing btw!

  27. B.... T....

    The me now is weak and full of hatred towards the world and what it has become, I don't know if I could let the young innocent me see what the world actually is

  28. Z.... M....

    This is the only metal band I have heard that have this sound. Other than Earthists, but they ain't even as good as these guys.

    These guys need more attention.

  29. S.... W....

    What a fuckin load of crap. Can't understand a word of it. Fell asleep with my phone on autoplay and I get woke up by this f'kin Row.

  30. O.... ....

    This guys REALLY implement the feels in their songs. You can feel it

  31. L.... ....

    the sound in the beginning of the song made me think i was watching a Cinemasins video for a second and i am narrating this comment in the host's voice for some reason

  32. A.... J....

    I tried, but, this band is pretty gay. The instrumentals are great but why does every guy have to try and be Johnny Craig when they sing. At least try to be original and not look/act/sing like you want to seduce every 13 year old scene girl.

    A.... J....

    Youre trippin bro. So every clean vocalist is trying to sound like Johnny Craig(and failing miserably of course)?

    A.... J....

    No every clean vocalist that sounds like their balls are in their throat. It's like a pissing contest of who has the higher pitched vocal range.

    A.... J....

    His voice isn't even that high pitched though?

  33. T.... ....

    Best Song ever!!!!!

  34. h.... ....

    Vocalist ruins it all, sorry :/

  35. s.... ....

    i kept repeating the song just to hear that epic intro

  36. A.... K....

    Please Russian tour

  37. U.... ....

    please come to australia

  38. P.... J....

    At 3:13, my penis grew wings, said "fuck you", and flew away.

  39. B.... H....

    The music is good, but I don't really like his voice.

    B.... H....

    I don't understand why people keep bitching about vocal... fucking flawless

    B.... H....

    Bob Harrison I personally disagree I think his voice is flawless and is the high light of the band

  40. D.... ....

    0:18 thats some fucked up lobes, what happend there man?!

  41. M.... L....

    At times it sounds like they are just another Djent band but there is enough excellence in there for me to like it a lot.

  42. L.... T....

    he looks like the happiest drummer ever!

    L.... T....

    Naturally, he hit china

  43. R.... M....

    Dope af

  44. Y.... ....

    Bought this album on a whim. Good choice.

  45. C.... G....

    Anyone got a good list of bands like this i will greatly appreciate it

    C.... G....

    Go listen to Landmvrks mate

    C.... G....

    Invent, animate if you haven't already. Wide eyes has some great instrumental albums

    C.... G....

    Go check out trash boats new album

    C.... G....

    Alaska, Invent Animate, Northlane, Misery Signals, Stories (Void EP specifically), The Contortionist (Exoplanets Album), Erra, and Auras. These bands are somewhat similar to Novelists, they are all great too

  46. G.... L....

    as soon as i heard that riff, i was like, "OH MY GOD THIS IS GOING TO BE GOOD"

  47. m.... ....

    these guys are good as hell

  48. M.... R....

    The music and lyrics are great. Thank you. You have a new subscriber.

  49. M.... P....

    This Album is simply brilliant!

  50. B.... S....

    Vocalist wears Drop Dead

  51. h.... ....

    wow that was weird the add for this video was just the video for The Lichtenberg Figures.

  52. R.... ....

    These guys have talent! They don't copy ideas from other bands, they try to create their own metalcore style, even if the competition is big today...... They're true artists! It's worth to buy their music!

  53. E.... ....

    I from panamá,this song is awesome!!!

  54. l.... l....

    I am Fan and I live in Panamá

  55. b.... ....

    Thumbs up for all! Nothing but love in these comments!

  56. S.... ....

    Tightest shit I've heard in while. I'm outta words. The djent influence adds a different flavor altogether. I do believe that increasing the volume of the vocals in the mix would've been better. Anyways, crazy stuff. Hope you guys all the fame and recognition you deserve

  57. G.... R....

    Yo boys, Australian tour?

  58. D.... S....

    Bieber on bass, that's dope.

  59. N.... ....

    Catch us on the "Wake" European tour in April with FOR TODAY and SILENT PLANET !

    Tickets : https://www.facebook.com/events/445369532319853/

  60. T.... ....

    3:13😉❤

  61. F.... J....

    this is the same place Monuments did their playthrough for "Atlas" right?

  62. B.... E....

    Fucking yawn....

  63. J.... A....

    Is the bag meant to be full of wasted time (sand through the hourglass)? Cos that's fucken great.

  64. R.... S....

    Should of had him throw the hourglass and break it. Lol

  65. S.... A....

    In <3 with this band. So unique.

  66. U.... ....

    0:04 Moviesins!

  67. M.... ....

    literal garbage

  68. A.... B....

    I dub thee: djentle-core.

    A.... B....

    this guy

    A.... B....

    Holy fuck this is brilliant

  69. M.... D....

    this band is good tier good.

  70. J.... P....

    Absolutely beautiful!

  71. s.... ....

    Super sick, you guys put a lot of work into each song and it really shows it's a pleasure to listen to artist like you.

  72. T.... ....

    Is this the hall in which Monuments played in their Video of Atlas ? :D

  73. T.... C....

    this is exactly what the scene needs right now although some of the guitar parts are pretty generic but the singer singing voice is amazing its not like every other singer that has a really whinny voice.

  74. A.... E....

    Dear NOVELISTS fans,
    the digital and physical version of the album 'Souvenirs' will be available in the United States, Canada & Mexico on February 26th.
    We hope you'll enjoy this masterpiece anyway and apologize again for the delay.
    -Arising Empire

    A.... E....

    I'm from México, Thanks a lot :D

    A.... E....

    Arising Empire vinyl LP too?

  75. A.... H....

    Matteo is cool

  76. X.... ....

    The batcha daddda and the rabba blab a

  77. Q.... V....

    I just came across these guys and i don't really listen to this type of music too much, but I really love the raw honesty in the lyrics. It's really refreshing!

  78. B.... a....

    I think I'd like this more if I could hear the album. I never buy an album before I listen to it all the way through, and the record company or the band or someone is keeping the record off spotify and youtube in my country. I guess they won't be getting my money because of that. Oh well...

  79. Y.... S....

    nice band

  80. J.... J....

    I fucking love the technicality this band shows. The precision is incredible.

  81. M.... P....

    I heard this song during a CS:GO match, someone was playing it in the background and I automatically liked it. I don't really listen to metal, which is what I think this is, but this song man..... And at first I didn't like the harsh vocals but after like 103142314832543 plays, I don't see anything but the harsh vocals going along with it, it contrasts well with the instruments and chorus! Keep up the good work!

  82. T.... ....

    So epic this is your the #1 band in france. And the #1 release in my collection. Love you guys!

  83. S.... ....

    this song needs a play-through video

  84. c.... b....

    You guys need to get that album release fixed on iTunes! All the people that preordered can't get it till February? That bullshit I hope it's not your fault. Thanks

  85. P.... c....

    sounds heavily influenced by melodic hardcore

  86. K.... P....

    Definitely one of the best vocalists out there

  87. V.... ....

    JESUS CHRIST this us incredible! Also, those Aristides guitars and bass!!!!!! Sooooo sexy!!!!

  88. A.... ....

    Gee, i wonder what guitar brand they like? Hahaha, this is sick!

  89. S.... ....

    ENFIN ! ENFIN un groupe qui se démarque de la meilleure façon qui soit. L'atmosphère musicale, les paroles, le clip, ... Tout est excellent ! Un grand bravo à vous, les gars. Faut que vous passiez à Bruxelles please :)

  90. C.... M....

    guys i missed you in hannover....i could cry..

  91. H.... P....

    Their sound is so damn unique, I get chills everytime I listen to this band...

  92. J.... G....

    I'm having problems with the vocal mix on this album. the ep was a lot louder and cleaner. amazing music but the vocal production is shit. love this band though

  93. L.... L....

    I've played this song and others by them, at least 50 times in the last day! Can't wait for their new album!! right when the chorus kicks in and he says "the dream will be mine" makes me so happy!

  94. C.... M....

    bro apart from the music being awesome, the dude in the video (blonde guy) is fucking attractive asf

  95. n.... g....

    I run 6 miles to this song everyday!

  96. M.... N....

    Nice. Just need an album now.

  97. o.... ....

    1:17 I got exactly the same backpack :D
