Today I will share with you another favourite song, Carnival of Rust by Poets of the Fall. My best friend sent it to me via MSN -we used to do that all the time- back in college years and he assured me that I will love this song. And he was right!
Poets of the Fall is a Finnish alternative rock band from Helsinki and their music meets my taste. Especially this one became my favourite from the first time!
It reminds me of that days we had really nothing to worry about, besides studying for the University. We loved making rides with the car in Athens listening to music and chatting. This song in particular was our favourite one and we were listening to it over and over again.
I also love the lyrics...
Of your savior
In your hour of need
And taste the blame
If the flavor should remind you of greed
Of implication, insinuation and you will
Till you cannot lie still
In all this turmoil, before red cave and foil
Come closing in for a kill
Come feed the rain
'Cause I'm thirsty for your love
Dancing underneath the skies of lust
Yeah feed the rain
'Cause without your love, my life
Ain't nothing but this carnival of rust
It's all a game
Avoiding failure
When true colors will bleed
All in the name
Of misbehavior
And the things we don't need
I lust for after no disaster can touch
Touch us anymore
And more than ever, I hope to never fall
Where enough is not the same it was before
Come feed the rain
'Cause I'm thirsty for your love
Dancing underneath the skies of lust
Yeah feed the rain
'Cause without your love, my life
Ain't nothing but this carnival of rust
Yeah feed the rain
'Cause I'm thirsty for your love,
Dancing underneath the skies of lust
Yeah, feed the rain
'Cause without your love, my life
Ain't nothing but this carnival of rust
Ooh, when the world is burning
Don't walk away, don't walk away
Ooh, when the heart is yearning
Don't walk away, don't walk away
Ooh, when the world is burning
Don't walk away, don't walk away
Ooh, when the heart is yearning
