Nightwish – Dead To The World Lyrics 14 years ago
Tuomas' words are just pure emotion. If you look at this entire song as one emotion, I would say that the emotion would be "mournful." He mourns for the lost innocence that has been taken away. He laments that "he died and returned to die in me again." The child is corrupted and so is Tuomas. He also "joined the sinful to regain innocence." Innocence is something that he seems to battle with often..

"Only innoncence can save the world" ~Tuomas Holopainen

Judging by this quote, innocence is a touchy subject for him.. Some may relate this song to religion but I relate it to Tuomas' passionate nature. I respect him greatly.
