VNV Nation - Darkangel Lyrics






I'd only come here seeking peace
I'd only come here seeking me
It seems I came to leave

In your dream you see me clear
I have no restraint, no fear
Powerless I watched from faces I'd assumed
My purpose set, my will defined
Caress the air, embrace the skies
Escape the sorrow and restraint of mortal cities

Give me time I will be clear, given time you'll understand
What posseses me to right what you have suffered
I'm in this mood because of scorn, I'm in a mood for total war
To the darkened skies once more and ever onward

So many years I stood among
The thoughts and tears of those I served
Among my own I was alone through my own doing
All the years I walked unknown behind the faces I assumed
Powerless to clear your minds of what you'd suffered
They fall again
They fall again

Give me time I will be clear, given time you'll understand
What posseses me to right what you have suffered
I'm in this mood because of scorn, I'm in a mood for total war
To the darkened skies once more and ever onward
There is no faith in which to hide, even truth is filled with lies
Doubting angels fall to walk among the living
I'm in this mood because of scorn, I'm in a mood for total war
To the darkened skies once more and ever onward

I'd only come here seeking peace
I'd only come here seeking me
It seems I came to leave

    I'd only come here seeking peace
    I'd only come here seeking me

    They fall again
    They fall again

    Who else is here because of Dorian (Of Herbs and Altars) ??
    I was born too late to go to clubs playing amazing music like this but damn what a A-grade banger

    E.... C....

    There are clubs which play music decades older than this. It's not about how old it is, so much as finding the right place to look.

    This needs to be used as a music video for the Dark Angels Chapter.

  50. J.... L....

    This sounds 500 times better than the new one by ADELE.

    J.... L....

    some people have an aversion to music that sucks and is made to sell cheeseburgers...

    J.... L....

    Because self-affirming circlejerks are a thing.

    J.... L....

    Its called knowing sound, composition and having listened to music for years and understanding the grand masterpieces vs repetitive pop fade aways. The songs that stand the test of time vs right here and now and understanding the difference. Its called having taste, not just blindly accepting whatever is fed you. Have na opinion, care, choose, define. Dont be like the others.

    J.... L....

    Because britney and adele suck

    J.... L....

    Cause vnv nation composed and created this music themselves. Adele and britney have people who write their songs for them, musically and they are just figureheads for money and fame. Not for the sake of the art of the music.

  51. P.... M....

    I have a reflex to raise my hands when the track opens.

  74. V.... H....

    Not going to lie, the tunes themselves are very melodic. However the monotone voice just buries this song under the singers lack of talent and inability to add variance to his vocals. Yes, the lyrics are beautiful. However the singer himself is just ruining this song for me with his inability to sing anything but one chord throughout ALL of his songs. How bland.

  75. b.... ....

    Used to associate this one with Doctor Who's Ninth Doctor. Nowadays, I just like it for itself. :)

    How many people relate to this song as if it were about themselves? Is there an army of dark angels on Earth waiting to step in on behalf of the downtrodden to bring them all peace, justice, liberty, security, respect, and compassion? Recognition of this desire in each other to heal all of humanity's ills will be the next step in achieving these things for all, forever.
    Enjoy!

    Theres good Electronica here in America too. Unfortunately now all of that Techno-Pop shit has saturated the Genre to the Point of making it a hollow shell of what it once was. Shit. Is. Sad.

    Encouragable words+Uplifting rythms= VNV Nation

  80. A.... ....

    And then again, has the world ever been in peace? When do we speak of war over merely a conflict or battle? Is there a certain number of people having to be involved? What is the difference between an animal defending its territory and humans doing so? Doesn't everybody long for more? Isn't that instinct in all of us making sure our kind does not become extinct? I don't think peace will ever exist on this earth due to nature of the human being, which will ultimately cause its demise.

  81. n.... a....

    nice one

    VNV Nation - "Empires" and Ganymede - "Space and Time" I listen to those albums a lot.

  83. D.... B....

    great and deep futurepop from england

  84. D.... B....

    good electronic music comes from Europe!

  85. S.... B....

    It reminds me of my human duty's on this earth

  86. V.... ....

    I listened to this song while playing the thieves guild and the dark brotherhood missions on skyrim - this song really fits

  87. v.... ....

    thats not true at all, there is more money in shitty mainstream music. ive heard many american artists that are less popular and much better then mainstream. just look at bieber, hes canadian and super famous but his music is garbage. its all about that cash

  88. D.... ....

    Good point. Allow me to shoot my foot for making a stereotypical american mistake.

  89. L.... ....

    Gotta love how you assumed I'm american

  90. E.... B....

    Same here!

  91. D.... ....

    because they're not an american pop band. We only get to hear bullshit in the states because foreign music has a negative stigma in our society.
