Reroute To Remain Lyrics

It started as a whisper.
Now try to dodge this roar.
Unified is the most forceful way to go.
Waste this one? its up to you!
We need this revolution.

Destroy the pattern,
anything that seperates.
Across the times
who dares to follow?

For years we wandered these circles,
hold onto whatever lie gets us through.

Design, new latitudes
find ways to channel bliss.
Us defined
is to fragile to neglect.
Reroute to remain.

Never want to look back in greed
can I please have you attention?

There are mountains to cross,
for all, that are willing.
There are neverending treasures,
that await you.

For years we wandered these circles,
hold onto whatever lie gets us through.

Design, new latitudes
find ways to channel bliss.
Us defined
is to fragile to neglect.
Reroute to remain.

Also, this song formed the basis for my valedictorian speech at graduation lol.

IN FLAMES, TAKING OVER HIGH SCHOOL GRADUATIONS EVERYWHERE.

I can't believe I got to see them in Gigantour with Bodom and Megadeth... Amazing.

First I have to say that In Flames really kick ass I loved them the fist time I herd them (pinball map) on the radio. They deserve more appreciation then they have gotten. I live in Sweden and only a few people I know have heard of them. You would think that in their own county they would be known at least. Maybe it’s just the town I live in. I've been listening to their new album almost nonstop these past days after the release and it is really wonderful! Just like everything else In Flames make. Almost every song on the album is a masterpiece. It’s a little different from the rest of their albums but it still has that “magic” In Flames touch to it. I think this song is about people who are stubborn and refuse to change their old ways and ideas of things. Maybe it is directed to people who want to live in their own world and don’t accept today’s changes in society; they just think everything was better before. Basically the song is probably about that times change and you should keep an open mind to make the best of it.
Anyway, I love the song and the new album and In Flames… In Flames RULE!!!

im fairly convinced its symbolizes the fact that the album is heading towards a new direction, and is there to stay (to remain)

I think this song tells only one thing: In Flames has taken a new direction in their music, let me tell you how!

"It started as a whisper. Now try to dodge this roar." This tells about the growth of the band.

"Unified is the most forceful way to go." They strongly believe this is the next step in their career.

"Waste this one? its up to you!" It's up to you if you listen or ignore this record

"We need this revolution." Band needs a new direction, who knows why, maybe they are bored or want to try new type on composing.

"who dares to follow?" Are old fans brave enough to accept change?

"For years we wandered these circles" They know they have been making same type on music so far...

"Design, new latitudes find ways to channel bliss." ...and it's time to try something different, and it makes them happy!

"There are mountains to cross, for all, that are willing." Maybe they know, it will be hard to tolerate all the criticism they will have with new music but they will do it!

"There are neverending treasures, that await you." Listen to this record, and the next one, they will be even better!

"Reroute to remain." Only way this band can survive is to do things different.

The name on the song and album tells exactly whats going on.. and RtoR is on purpose the first song on this record to tell everyone about how things will change...

In Flames kick a$$ this is a darn good song of an excelent album. they deserve so much more recognition than they get. When u get linkin park getting weeks on mtv2 and one in flames vid a month, it just shows the injustice in the music industry either way, ive discovered them and ive reaped the rewards :)

You are correct about the stubborness and of the old ways. However, they want to unify societies, destroy the barries that separate us. Reroute to remain... find a path away from our current situations (war and terrorism and such) to continue living.

I would say that the entire album "Reroute to Remain" is very thematic. Many of the songs deal with things changing.

I agree nemuu,i to think that this song is about the evolution the band have underwent to keep the sound fresh adn to challenge the percerptions of what they could do as a band.These guys showcase real musical talent.It may not be at the level of Carcass,but fuck,these guys can make some cool noise.The twin guitars on this song own.

I think everyone's on the right track...the world's heading in a downward spiral and unless we work together and get a plan in action then it may be too late. Someone should send this song to George Dubya...
