LYRICS :
Shadows of the Sun,
enraptured in the sound
Hypernormal frequencies
illuminating clouds
We televise the noise
to all that we can reach
The broadcasts preach the word
of better times and peace
We automate the lies
with images we fake
Machines to grant our every wish
when all we do is take!
To Apathy we drink
when dancing in the flames
A chance for us to celebrate
because all we do is wait!
Who has the most is King
Constructed to be served
so that which is destroyed
is cheered on while it burns
With nothing left to lose
and seconds ticking fast,
though time is running out,
all we do is laugh-
and hide among the crowd,
drowning in its noise,
in envy of the beautiful
facades of shallow grace
The best would try and fail,
feel helpless at the task
but lead as if they rule in hell
when all we do is wait!
Our fortunes running out
and our options running dry
With no one else to turn to,
still, we sit and cry
We’re dancing in the flames
to the sounds of our demise
Drinking to our apathy
because all we do is wait
The King, the sacred Crown,
the Chalice and the Mace
who rule over these famine lands
whose bounty goes to waste
A power that corrupts,
regaling this as fate
The waters rising to our necks
and all we do is wait - Hudba
Been listening to VNV Nation for almost 25 years, since 1999 when they released Empires. Seen them perform live in New York, meet Ronan Harris in Toronto. What a carrier they have had - they define the alternative synthpop movement.
Wieder einmal Gänsehaut 😁 danke,danke,danke ... Der Sound... Die Lyrics alles fließt und geht tief in jede Pore ❤❤❤❤
Been a fan since 1999-present
I swear every time VNV Nation releases another song I play it on repeat until my ears bleed. Such a killer beat and intense lyrics every time.
Chalice and the mace. What is that? Is that a UK thing?
Yes this describes it perfectly!
Pretty much accurate…
Weird thing to say
Great song. You're the only one "band" (that I know of) that can succeed to mix so well sadness/joy/spirituality/energy in each title. Thank you for allthose years spent with your beautiful music.✌🤟
Excellently put
This is perfect walking music
I run to this on loop
Ein tolles Lied mit einem spektakulären Rhythmus💃🏻🙌
Liegt es nur an mir? Einmal anhören reicht nicht!!!...brillantes Meisterwerk🫶😘
It's all about the words, the lyrics. I understand the criticism that the beats are derivative, but that's not why I listen to VNV. It's poetry and inspiration...the best part of my life the past 20 years. Thank you, Ronan, for the inspiration you've shone in my life. Hope you still have a "hat guy" here in Milwaukee since we all miss seeing you here.
the beats are maybe (sometimes) derivative (like everything today ) but some (many) of their songs have GREAT music. Like for example Before the Rain that has a fantastic melody and mood.
Lol every thing is derivative since time began its all come from something else includibg the critic
Its always been about his voice and lyrics really - though arguably, there is stuff from the Empires era that I thought was really cutting edge at the time for electronic music, and not just the lyrics/vocals.
@@Arshay i dont agree , i think voice and lyrics will not work if not supported by GREAT music/melodies/refrains... As much as the lyrics in From my hands, Gratitude, Perpetual, All our Sins, When is the Future , Nova, Lights go Out, Before the rain, Beloved .are great they would not work without that excellent music.
@@matthewrowe9903 You're completely right.
Thank you, Ronan, for always writing anthems that get to the heart of the human condition-the ugly as well as the beautiful. Our apathy will indeed destroy us. I'm so grateful I have songs like these to blast + sing along with at the top of my lungs when I'm pissed and frustrated with the world as it is. (See: "All Our Sins") #catharsis

Love!
such rich messages
i love this comment
I was lucky to see VNV nation in Pittsburgh last week. Such an amazing show! Thanks for the good times.
I seen them in Cleveland. It was a great show!
Ronan is like some celestial conductor who guides the waveform from our collective souls - reassures it, understands it, shapes it and then releases it so it may give life to these otherworldly symphonies.
TLDR: Goddamn I Love VNV
“We’re dancing in the flames to sounds of our demise…” basically yeah. 🥰

You can find them in the description of the video.
I'm just discovering VNV (thanks to this song). Totally hooked, I can't stop listening. New songs everyday. Thinking things I've never thought. Feeling things I've never felt. Absolutely incredible.
The songs just keeps getting better. Glad to have my summer soundtrack almost here. Thank you boys.
Oh my goodness, y'all that is some truth right there!
Ronan, you are my ultimate favorite artist, I've been a true fan since discovering you in 1999. Your music has served as anthems that have pulled me out of some really dark moments. Thank you for sharing this beautiful gift of yours with us.
Jaiided Lynx 1999? Same here! Saw them as the opening act for Apoptygma Berserk, in a bar, on the U.S. Praise the Fallen Tour. Been a fan ever since.
1999 !!! same here ... his songs bring me back to life so many times
Einfach nur geil die Band
Omg, I love being so weird and happy to hear these guys
SO GREAT! Love these Lyrics so much, from first Moment I read! Runs deep, absolutely! Thank you, VNV Nation for being Part of my Life since I got "Nova" recommanded from a good Friend of Mine! Masterpiece, that makes my whole Day today...Feeling so blessed 🙏🏻🙏🏻 Can't explain how MUCH I feel blessed by so many, so heart-warming & beloved Songs in all these years...haha...Wuhuuu! Thanks from the bottom of my Heart!
Exactly what I love about VNV Nation - ominous tune about mankind dancing at the end of the world, enjoying themselves as everything around them dissolves. Yet the music instills strength and power. In Before the Rain we had an intimate song, and Wait can't have a broader scope. And both are exquisite! Excellent, excellent.
I was just casually listening to the song "Illusion" and boom, new album coming - had no idea. buying now
Never clicked so fast...
EDIT: I think i just travelled through all the VnV albums, from Advance and Follow to Noire. I missed a bit the old agressive drops, but the OG industrial percussion was there. The video is stunning, i loved it. I need to hear it more times to identify all the lyrics (english is not my first language), but what i heard until now is AWESOME. Well done Ronan and the whole VnV crew
The lyrics are in the video description
@@NineBerry oh...
Vnv Nation is a solo project,Ronan uses session musicians when he plays live
@@gabbycyber9917 i know. But i meant in a general spectrum, including the live sessions
Der Hammer 👍👍👍
You still got it, guys. God bless you. Thank you for coming back to us.
Ich hab mich noch nie so auf ein Album gefreut ❤❤❤❤❤
Ronan du bist der beste ❤
Thank you, I need this words.
this song is so greeaaat.. it gave me energy when i was most desperate to continue with life.. and so well produced. after that song i listened to most of your other ones. thank you for making such beatiful music :)
Wutmusik gibt Lebenskraft und Energie. Wut geht raus aus dem Körper....
Und man wird leichter.
Mach ich auch so.
Alles Gute für dich.
VNV...making my heart beat since the first I heard you, more than 15 years ago. ❤
FANTASTIC !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
My god, how do you keep making such amazing music?

They announced the release of the single a few weeks ago. It's also past midnight in Germany as of the posting of this video.
@@sontastabica4532 well yes, but they didn't say that it would be a MV
Every new song with the potential to be my next favorite song. Ready to dance on the next concert, screaming out the lyrics to that damn world at the top of my lungs.
Just finished the song. Listen first than comment. But man, oh man. VNV Nation is back. I hope entire album is that good
