Clayman has eleven masterpieces so it’s hard to choose a song to review… We already reviewed and suggested Pinball Map (http://www.metaldatabase.com/songs/in-flames-pinball-map.html) and today we suggest Only for the Weak. In this specific song, I mostly love the guitar melodies. Even behind a tone of screaming and drumming and basing you can understand and feel them. In my opinion, this is the ultimate characteristic of this ultimate melodic death metal song. Enjoy every second from this masterpiece!
Composer: Bjorn Gelotte, Jesper Stromblad }{ Year: 2000
Lyrics:
I
can't tolerate your sadness
Cause it's me you are drowning
I won't allow (allow) any happiness
Cause everytime you laugh, I feel so... guilty
I feel so guilty
Am I forced to have any regret
I've become the lie, beautiful and free
In my righteous own mind
I adore and preach the insanity you gave to me
Oh, sell me the infection, it is only for the weak
No need for a sympathy, the misery that is me
I've lost the ability to paint the clouds
Cause it's me you're draining
I'm stuck in this slow-motion dark tale
Cause everytime you run, I fall… behind
I fall behind
And so I hear my voice again
The tale of the bitter man there I am
Shake the silence and hear what it says
The tranquil pride that become the lie
Oh, sell me the infection, it is only for the weak
No need for a sympathy, the misery that is me
Sell me the infection, it is only for the weak
On bleeding knees, oh, I accept my fate
Sell me the infection, it is only for the weak
No need for a sympathy, the misery that is me
Oh, sell me the infection, it is only for the weak
On bleeding knees, oh, I accept my fate
Sell me the infection, it is only for the weak
No need for a sympathy, the misery that is me
Oh, sell me the infection, it is only for the weak
On bleeding knees...
