The Remnant Lyrics

We have not forgotten
We have not forgotten

We are a part of the resistance
The underground insurgent remnant
We bear this burden through the ages
Beneath the surface the war still rages on

They were the chosen ones
We have not forgotten
We are the only ones
Who refuse to let go

Separation
Countless dimensions in between
Communication
Severed ties with ancient mystery
No explanation
Only the silence of the unforgiving void
Dissociation
We can't let this memory be destroyed

We have not forgotten
We have not forgotten

This is the work of a hundred generations
To recover what was abandoned
To unlock the secret of the ancients
And traverse dimensional space again

They were the chosen ones
We have not forgotten
We are the only ones
Who refuse to let go

Separation
Countless dimensions in between
Communication
Severed ties with ancient mystery
No explanation
Only the silence of the unforgiving void
Dissociation
We can't let this memory be destroyed

Rebuild
Restore
Reclaim the truth and take the leap again

We have not forgotten
We have not forgotten
Rebuild
Restore
Reclaim the truth and take the leap again

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

Frontman Jason Wisdom says of this track; "Thematically, it reflects the reality of our current humanitarian situation," he continues "Existential dread pervades our existence. People have experience with real monsters in addition to facing our own mortality. These things are evident not only in metal culture, but greater culture as well. We touch upon all of this as well as the possibility of redemption and salvation from those terrors."
