Revelation Lyrics

Cover art for Revelation lyrics by Insomnium

What Insomnium wrote in their booklet : "Revelation" was the first song that I wrote for Insomnium, and hence, it will always have a special meaning for me. I already knew all about Insomnium tricks and traps as I've been under the radar for a decade. So I just needed to click my brain on Insomnium mode and go with the flow. This one is a Gothenburg-type fast song and reminds me a bit my own band Omnium Gatherum. M. Vanhala

These were the first lyrics I finished for this album. Some poems by Finnish poet Uuno Kailas have influenced this text. The theme is not very dark or death metal in the end but... shall I say hopeful or empowering. I'll leave it up to you to make your own interpretation. N. Sevanen
