    LYRICS
    Imprisoned inside this mind
    Hiding behind the empty smiles
    So simple (the anguish)
    As it mocks me
    Crawling back into the dark
    Running, always running, into the distance
    Stop me before I bleed, again
    The echoes of my voice
    Follow me down
    The shadows I cast
    Follow me down
    Deeper I'm falling
    Into the arms of sorrow
    Blindly descending
    Into the arms of sorrow
    There must be serenity
    The echoes of my voice
    Follow me down
    The shadows I cast
    Follow me down
    Deeper I'm falling
    Into the arms of sorrow
    Blindly descending
    Into the arms of sorrow
    The demon of my own design
    This horror must not remain
    Tear these walls down.
    Deeper I'm falling
    Into the arms of sorrow
    Blindly descending
    Into the arms of sorrow
    There must be serenity
    There must be deliverance
    Deeper I'm falling
    Blindly descending

    Howard Jones inspired me to seek vocal lessons. Growing up in the South I was never encouraged to pursue “metal” music or its’ many sub-genres. I was viewed as “black” and was teased for listening to anything “outside of my culture.” Whether people like it or not that was an unfortunate part of growing up in my area of Louisiana. However, after discovering the lead singer of KSE was a person of color my outlook in this genre was forever changed. I’m 32 now and am just starting out learning the very basics of singing and vocal control. Had it not been for Howard, I wouldn’t be trying this singing thing at all. So thanks for being an inspiration to me. To anyone else who’s going through a cultural or societal backlash for your choice in music….chase it anyway…relentlessly. 🤟🏾

    “There was nothing wrong with Killswitch or the relationship. Everything was wrong with me. I was going insane. It never occured to me to get help. For years, I just tried to fight through it and I was driving those guys beserk. My anxiety was building and building, and near the end, there were a lot of times I’d sit in the back of the bus or lay in my bunk for hours on end without speaking to anyone. Even the idea of having to do a meet and greet freaked me out.”
    This is why Howard left

  • @8BITBASKIN
    @8BITBASKIN 9 років тому +100

    I remember when I was first getting into metal back when I was around 14/15 and I was randomly browsing the On Demand music videos and I kept randomly checking out each band listed and when I got to KSE, it was this video and it blew me away. I was used to hearing very harsh metal vocal stylings (a friend of mine introduced me to bands like Korn and Disturbed to get me into metal and while not "harsh" vocalists, they weren't very smooth clean vocalists) but the smoothness and richness of Howard's voice drew me in and how it seemed to have a never ending well of power. The guitars soared and had such a crisp sound to the riffs and the drums carried that resonance with a crashing force. To top it all off, Adam D's background vox is fucking amazing. The part around 1:54-2:05 where he does back-up for Howard is haunting. I hold KSE with Howard in such high regard when it comes to my introduction into this music still to this day.

    Man I want this song to be the anthem of my life. I have Asperger’s syndrome and this hits HARD. “Imprisoned inside this mind.” “The echoes of my voice follow me down.” and “Running, always running into the distance.” Are all exactly what i feel and say to myself sometimes. I get through it though. I’m trying to use it as an asset instead of a detriment in my life. That strategy has been working so far. Thank you Killswitch Engage for making a song that talks about wanting to try and atone from your past mistakes and do better. This is amazing. Truly, thank you guys.

      AoJB is still my favorite by these guys but As Daylight Dies is definitely my second-favorite. It's almost as if the band was aiming at making it a sequel to AoJB, because a lot of the material has similar structuring, but adds a different feel to it with Howard's vocals.

    The lyrics are about depression, the man is jumping because of his sorrow, but others can interpret it as jumping to save himself from the fire. However I believe that the fire is a representation of his sorrow, and he's trying to escape it. Some of the apartment occupants may also represent his sorrow, with the girlfriend slapping her boyfriend symbolizing a broken relationship and the jump rope hitting his foot representing imperfection.

    Crawling back into the dark
    Running, always running, into the distance
    Stop me before I bleed, again
    The echoes of my voice
    Follow me down
    The shadows I cast
    Follow me down
    Deeper I'm falling
    Into the arms of sorrow
    Quickly descending
    Into the arms of sorrow
    There must be serenity
    The echoes of my voice
    Follow me down
    The shadows I cast
    Follow me down
    Deeper I'm falling
    Into the arms of sorrow
    Blindly descending
    Into the arms of sorrow
    The demons of my own design
    This horror must not remain
    Deeper I'm falling
    Into the arms of sorrow
    Blindly descending
    Into the arms of sorrow
    There must be serenity
    There must be deliverance
    Deeper I'm falling
    Blindly descending

    Howard Jones voice is the greatest thing to ever happen to KSE and Metal Core. Is screams and more particularly his cleans are just incredible. IMHO this is KSE's best song.
