Slaves of Yesterday Lyrics
Monuments of dying dreams
As far away as Eden
These hours standing still
Finding comfort in a distant past
Slaves of yesterday
You are blind
Blind to the sunrise
A roaming spirit, forever lost
Among the living
Walking down the fatal road
Cursed to be left behind
Slaves of yesterday
You are blind
Blind to the sunrise
Lead melody - Christopher Amott
Lead - Christopher Amott
Slaves of yesterday
Slaves of yesterday
Outro Lead - Michael Amott
Slaves of yesterday
You are blind
Blind to the sunrise (x2)
As far away as Eden
These hours standing still
Finding comfort in a distant past
You are blind
Blind to the sunrise
Among the living
Walking down the fatal road
Cursed to be left behind
You are blind
Blind to the sunrise
Lead - Christopher Amott
Slaves of yesterday
You are blind
Blind to the sunrise (x2)

Woohoo, I'm first! Judging by the title name I would say that this song is about living with bad decisions. Maybe about how you realize "what might have been".
this song is AMAZING. i love the outro guitar. its just like HEY I OWN ... AT LIFE. this was the PERFECT way to end an album.
Yeah, great song indeed. Like cfury5 says, it's about the future generations who will be slaves of the short-sighted en egoïstic decisions we make in teh present. Mankind is destroying this earth and thereby the change of survival of future life.
I don't think it's about the future generations.. I think it's rather about the people who live in the past. They can't fully live their life because they're focused on their memories.
