Poets Of The Fall - Psychosis Lyrics






Well it's a different man in your face
And so out of place
That you can see anything there that you wish
Kiss my bliss
It's like I'm a welcoming freakshow doormat
Held in awe while growing fat in the head
This is where we all should see red
A big fat wet slab of red

And I see that it makes me anti everything
And I see that it makes me want to shed my skin, shed my skin

Revelation leading to my psychosis and inspiration
Digest another hallucination, psychosis by recreation
Happy till the next deterioration, psychosis

For you it's a different notion of music and motion
A dance of lights, a prosaic ocean
A delicate, nearly transparent creation of somebody's soul on the screen
Has caught you in between
Of somebody's life on the stage and somebody's life on the frontpage
And this is where we all should see red
A big fat laughing mouth of red

And I see that it makes me anti everything
And I see that it makes me want to shed my skin, shed my skin

I think I'm gonna start my own religion
Seems to be the recipe for a new sensation
Think it's gonna make a trendy revolution
Quite the contribution to the unnatural selection

  1. K.... R....

    Still my absolute favorite song!!! :)

  2. D.... D....

    Anyone else thinks of the joker from batman when they hear this song?? Esp the part where he says....big red laughing mouth of RED!!

  3. A.... K....

    That song where potf went full Red Pill anger phase. Listend this in high school and had no idea what's it about. This and the ultimate fling awoken a new level of awe for this band.

    A.... K....

    @Miska Autiorinne Carnival of Rust was on their set list during this year's European tour.

    A.... K....

    Dávid B I'm talking about the eponymous second album, Carnival of Rust. Well, at least they play that song.

    A.... K....

    It's literal. Marko Saaresto experiences psychosis. He sees himself as a kindred spirit to Carl Jung who also did, which he claimed to have used as a tool to analyse the human psyche - which is exactly what PotF's music does.

    A.... K....

    @chiffmonkey wait what?

    A.... K....

    Jung used the symbolism of Alchemy just like PotF too. Have a look into Individuation.

  4. L.... O....

    This is an awesome metal song... but I have to say, based on these lyrics alone, I don't know if the singer really understands what actual psychosis is like. :P A lot of artists have to get "a little crazy" to find inspiration, but that's not the same as being in a psychotic state. What he sounds like is more like a state of dissociation.

    L.... O....

    Sure, let's ruin the art by getting technical.

    L.... O....

    Dissociation? Do YOU know what you're talking about? That would be a severe feeling of detachment. What the song depicts seems like a pretty bad manic episode. I see grandiosity, irritability, clanging, flight of ideas, delusions (aka. PSYCHOSIS). Pretty accurate. Psychosis is not the same in all disorders or individuals. It can come in many forms, the only common thing is a disturbed sense of reality.

    L.... O....

    Marko Saaresto legitimately has psychosis, or at least the same perceived type of psychosis as Carl Jung had. Shows how much you know.

  5. B.... L....

    First heard this to a amv of Baccano, focusing on the Rail Tracer.

    B.... L....

    Me too.

    How come this song isn't famous?😱

    H.... Z....

  8. H.... ....

  9. S.... L....

    S.... L....

    I think the Happy Song is bit more badass in my opinion.
