Romanticide Lyrics

Lyric discussion by Lailseax 

Cover art for Romanticide lyrics by Nightwish

This was one of the first songs I heard from The Once album but it took me awhile to really get into it and enjoy it. It is certainly quite a heavy Nightwish song but the guitar riffs are excellent, the 'chugging' guitar really gives a sense of power. I think it is that power that symbolises the feelings in this songs, wanting to break free, feeling lost in where you currently are (a relationship) and the anger that you are here wishing to be somewhere else where you can be free to be who you should be.
