Area 11 - Homunculus Lyrics
Balanced Equation
Something gained something lost
It cost me an arm and a leg
But I won't lose you at any cost
I can see something appear in the sulfur
Lines on the ground carry righteous intension
Hoping to God
That theories hold up
I watched you slip away
As all our dreams turned into dust
Such a price to pay
Exchanging flesh for steel and rust
We stood and watched as the flames embraced
And I'm lost for words to say
Now I freeze; paralysed
Terrified of what I'll find
In the shadows I hear the cry
Transmutation; Homunculi
Now I freeze; paralysed
Terrified of what I'll find
In the shadows I hear the cry
Transmutation; Homunculi
Do you feel?
Lust, and Pride, and Gluttony,
Envy, Wrath, and Sloth, and Greed
Lust, and Pride, and Gluttony,
Envy, Wrath, and Sloth, and Greed
Humans are just weaknesses, that's what you believe (that's what you believe)
Now I have come to realise that's simply jealousy
Now I freeze; paralysed
Terrified of what I'll find
In the shadows I hear the cry
Transmutation; Homunculi
Now I freeze; paralysed
Terrified of what I'll find
In the shadows I hear the cry
Transmutation; Homunculi
Do you feel?
Now, now, do you feel?
I watched you slip away
As all our dreams turned into dust
Such a price to pay
Exchanging flesh for steel and rust
We stood and watched as the flames embraced
All we left behind erased
And I'm lost for words to say
(Now I'm lost for words to say!)
Now I freeze; paralysed
Terrified of what I'll find
In the shadows I hear the cry
Transmutation; Homunculi
Now I freeze; paralysed
Terrified of what I'll find
In the shadows I hear the cry
Transmutation; Homunculi
Do you feel?
Do you feel?

Area 11 Homunculus Comments
Also,in the 2003 Anime the Homunculi(With the exceptions of Pride,Envy,Greed and Sloth at first )didn`t even bother to hide the fact their hatred of humankind was based on jealousy!
I watched and episode of fma when I was a child, I liked it but didn't watch more, 2 years ago I found this song, liked it, this year I watched fma and fmab, love all related to it, weeks ago I realized the lyrics of this song and I didn't know I found a song about fma 😂❤️
My boyfriend sent me here
Area 11 is the only acceptable weeb shit
Viceroy Clovis commissioned this piece of art
Genuinely considering travelling all the way to London just to hear this song live again
This song was strangely paralyzing...
Fullmetal Alchemist anyone?
This is one of the best Area 11 songs
I'm listening to area 11 for the first time in over 6 months and it's giving me so much nostalgia holy hell :,) also this song is giving me nostalgia from both area 11 and FMAB
Homunculus- a human made from alchemy.
Absolutely cannot wait to see these guys again at Slam Dunk Festival this year and scream along to this! I may well be the only one singing, but that's fine by me!
great song 69maynnn
omg like
69
its so meaningfull and depressing👍👍👌👌😁😁😢
edward...
ed... ward...
That messed up my head....😢😧
my friend saw this and said
"there's a special place in hell for you"
+Tyler Burlingame (arklight 2) tell him - "along with Roy for blowing up nearly an entire race" 😂😂😂
Am I the only one or did this song just vanish off of iTunes?!
If they ever make a Full Metal Alchemist movie, this needs to be song that plays during the credits.
They've made two - The Sacred Star of Milos, and Conqueror of Shamballa - and apparently a live action one is going to be made now.
better have this. PRob wont.
Oh my, this is the first time when I find a song about FMAB, my love ☺.
I don't think anyone cares
Trivia can be fun.@Fiskell 211
For people who don't have a life maybe
Damnnnn
Huh so the homunculi got their own song
More about the Elric brothers than the Homunculi.
Hearing the words "balanced equation" and "it cost me an arm and a leg" shouted like that always cracks me up.
Who knows what this band is named after?
if memory serves it's a reference to code geass and what Japan gets called after the invasion.
@Jack Bale Bingo.
this is such an awesome sort of homage to FMA loved that anime
For once,without watching anime, I know when something is based on a anime. Full metal Alchemist
Nice job dad
Watched FMAB after I first heard this song, all the way back when it was released. So glad I did.
Now that I've watched Fullmetal Alchemist, it makes soooo much more sense.
Agreed 😂. Didnt even know it was a song bout FMAB
Is this song about Fullmetal? >^<
+eloise7783 Yes, yes it is :)
How come all the years I've listened to area 11 I never listened to homunculus until now
+Gamer Newbz Pretty hidden song. It was a giveaway, so it's not as 'there' (i guess) as something like Euphemia or HPGD.
+Gamer Newbz Why have you been listening to Japan
@Dylan Knight To hear the Japanese's muffled screams as Euphie kills them
@Ryan Gillet That`s because this song is based upon the Homunculi of the Full Metal Alchemist(Hagane no Renkinjutsushi which literally translates to "Alchemist of Steel" in the original Japanese) manga and anime franchise who are patterned after the Seven Deadly Sins.
Fucking love FMA!:)
this could be a good song for kaijudo.
best song to honour me
This song is literally Full Metal Alchemist. I think that's what it was inspired by.
Yep, check the description.
More brotherhood I'd assume given the line "In the shadows I hear the cry" which I guess refers to how Brotherhood Pride works?
+Dylan Thomas I was thinking when Ed and Al transmuted there mum. That creature "Cried" out, from what I remember.
+Sekishokudo I was thinking of the chimera but I think your one works much better.
Sparkles* hasn't seen Brotherhood, or at least hadn't when this was released.
This is my favorite song by Area 11
I'm really feeling this~
Can everyone just not talk about anime for one second, that guitar tone tho
That's kind of hard when almost all of their songs are based on anime
Who cares? That guitar tone tho
@Oscar Manners Evidently a lot of people care.
@Oscar Manners Also, "Said no one ever" doesn't work as a comeback to somebody saying something, because that person just said it.
@Oscar Manners 'that tone' i think my biggest gripe with area 11 is their lack of tone on guitar, in that it's just amp sims
This song fucking mastered the chorus.
Chorus is now a thing only Area 11 can use because of this song. This song's chorus should be THE definition of a chorus. Holy shit it's good
So true. I've been listening to this song every day since the first time I listened to it...
+Lunarixis Same here
BioSuffix Area 11 have mastered the chorus. Not just this, but In the Blind, Red Queen, and After the Flags are all up there too.
i keep coming back this song... the intro is a lil weird but this chorus keeps me hooked!
BioSuffix are you high?
I can ruin this song for you, think about Envy when he rips out his stone while listening.
OMG... This is amazing!
It reminds me the movie of se7en :3
HELL YES HELL YES JUST YES FULL MOTHER FUCKING METAL ALCHEMIST YES!
@SarahIsNotRoyal I see you are(were) very excited for this song xD
YES I WAS :) wow caps
@SarahIsNotRoyal I guess that's only a good thing. ^w^
~(^w^)~
Top 5 Hommunculi From both series: 5, Greed (Brotherhood) 4, Sloth (2003) 3, Wrath (Brotherhood) 2, Envy ,(2003) 1, Lust (2003)
I'd go with 1-5 being Greed, Pride, Envy, Lust, Gluttony.
I'm not the only one who thinks these lyrics sound like they directly link to the Blackrock series?
@Floatingbubbles Well I didn't but now that you mention it, I love that connection! Really great idea. Rhythian should know about it, I would like to know what he thinks.
@Floatingbubbles when i first watched it i thought it was about Blackrock
Honestly, I think it is (Or at least was inspired by Blackrock) but they don't want to admit it XD
These lyrics were most probably inspired by full metal alchemist.
Inspired by Fullmetal Alchemist, as said in the description.
My favorites go like this:
7. Sloth. I mean, like someone else said...not too much on his character
6. Gluttony. He kinda scares me. I'm not too fond of something that can eat me....
5. Wrath. Meh.
4. Greed. He's cool and all but he picks on Envy. He'd be higher up if he hadn't.
3. Pride. Creepy as heck but cool.
2. Lust. I just think she's a cool character. I don't really have any reason why she ranks at number two other than I just like her.
1. Envy. He's my favorite because of how complex of a character he is. I just think he's a really well thought out character. An amoral jerk, yes, but I still think he's awesome.
Judging by how you referred to Sloth as he and said wrath was meh I assume you haven't seen 2003? It goes way more into the introductions. It goes off track from the manga around episode 35 because it caught up to the manga, but the story's just as good imo.
+Unoriginal Username I've seen 03 more times than Brotherhood. But this video is Brotherhood based so that's why I listed the Brotherhood and manga version of the homunculi.
@#1 Envy Fan
Actually Sparkles* hadn't seen Brotherhood when he wrote this IIRC.
+Unoriginal Username I've seen both versions of the anime more than once and I own the whole manga. XD
* listens to at 5:11 * IT'S 11:11 SOMEWHERE
Is their a place that has a list of their songs and the title of anime their songs are linked to? If so please provide a link.
@Chris Clan http://yogscast.wikia.com/wiki/Area_11
There you go buddy. It's under Influences.
When I listened to this before watching FMAB I had no idea what the lyrics were on about. However I have been enlightened and it's 100 times better!
Is this still being researched for DH?If so I want to help but I'm crap at this ;-;
@HeroBoy the Gamer Everything is always being researched for DH. New theories are coming up for this song alone every day.
FMA mutch?
YES, Fullmetal Alchemist!!!!!!!! I wonder what anime will they to do next...
I watched FMA after hearing this song, and understanding the references make it so much better.
How can I get this on iPhone??
I guess you'll have to connect your iphone to your pc, download it there (link on description), and put the file on your music folder.
@Edward Barnes *cough* download filemaster, go to youtube mp3 while in the app download *cough* you didn't hear thsi from me *cough*
+FelipeBlackFire thanks :)
Full Metal Alchemist though :')
I just realised that this song uses the 7 deadly sins...
diablo 2
I knew this was about FMA with I heard "It cost me a arm and a leg"
I love FMA with all my heart and soul ( which is not bonded to armor ).
@AJ McBride Its the thought that counts.
@AllThingsNerd I get it :D
Me too i love that anime
@AllThingsNerd Ayeee
Affixed*
[flees]
I'm not sure, but when I saw them live the first line sounded more like "FOR THIS EQUATION"
This isn't the first song they based off an anime I mean they made two songs on code geass but their music is great
check out my pick of me weeing out rainbows ;P
i smell full metal alchemist here
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE more screams like no joke it sounds like enter Shakiri but so much fucking better
The moment I saw the title I thought 'Fullmetal Alchemist'
Only just understood this reference since I've only been watching FMA for a couple weeks. So good, the song and the anime.
Why isn't this on their new EP?
@dannajude homunculus is like my 3rd or 4th favorite song from them xD
@dannajude 1. Tokyo House Party 2. In The Blind 3. Between 'Are you listening?' & 'Homunculus'
@dannajude
both songs are cool
I'm pretty sure this is based on full metal alchemist.
I wish they would tour in America
It goes well with they story of FMA
FMA stands for Full Metal Alchemist
7 dislikes are Lust, Envy, Gluttony, Sloth, Greed, Wrath and Pride.
Disliked
O_O. Oh
@Dewayne C Except Sloth was last because... Well, you get it.
+Emmy “sweet one” McC. Nah, that must be Dante for not being a canon character. XD
The seven deadly sins
I don't know about this one i like the chorus but the verses idk
Omg yes Fullmetal alchemist
I would love this more as an instrumental during the screaming parts XD
This may sound creepy but I listen to this 10 possibly 20 times a day.
@RUOOYMgaming the first week that it came out it was the same for me (;
Do you know when it will be on iTunes??
@julia15325 Probably when the new EP 'Underline' is out (;
even though I know the song's about FMA, I still think of those monsters in maplestory xD
Started watching this anime today... Episode 3 and i already cried a little
Just wait until you get to the end.😀
Finished it... Them feels...
Which one did you watch? If you watched the original you need to watch the the conquer of shamballa to finish the plot properly. 😄
you just HAVE to play this song LOUDLY!
My first time hearing it I like it
Gah I love this song~
I'm loving the feel of this song; I hope they make more like this!
In my opinion, it's a different feel from the album ATLITS and i think the second EP will be the same feel as Homunculus ;P
@The Eleventh Cassette I cant wait for the new EP especially with this new Area 11 vibe in Homunculus :D
same (;
@8-Bit Orbit Gaming I'm sure it's gonna be amazing!
@Alexander Kaname :)
This one's more clearly based on an anime
Full metal alchemist
Hello Mr. Majora's Mask - Moon
Looks like we juLooks like we just got... MOONED
@Haonesle Nice typo :3
MidnightJam their name is an anime reference
I can totally see how this fits in with the digital haunt.
love this song
This genuinely makes me think of the Blackrock Chronicle.
Seriously, if you listen to the lyrics, it honestly has links to BRC X3
uh nope, the entire song is a reference to fma, as much as i like blackrock and anything zoey, this isnt related.
@Lewis Cole Ah right, didn't know that ^_^'
There's just a couple of lyrics that made me think of Blackrock, like "Exchanging flesh for steel and rust" reminded me of Zoey's robotic arm, and then there was the lyric about seeing humans as just weaknesses which I felt at the time was a link to Rythian thinking that Zoey was just a weakness at the start of Blackrock: Rebirth.
Yeah. I can see those points. Blackrock chronicles will go on :D
@TheAirshipTV The list can go on forever, just think about it.
I can not wait for the new album.
It's actually an EP (extended playlist)
That still does it for me. I love this band.
'Homunculus' plural 'homuculi' a very small human or humanoid creature. For those interested that is what it means thanks google ^.^
Or watch fma
Not what it means in the anime this song is based off of.
Basically artificial matter...
Someone needs to make an FMA amv with this song
@***** Personally I like both, but Brotherhood is better in my opinion.
+Crafterkid123 Does not.
@***** Filler`s not intrinsically a bad thing,you dumb weaboo.
@***** Even with all the filler,a lot of people still prefer the original Dragon Ball Z to Dragon Ball Z Kai.Why?Because Dragon Ball Z Kai is censored to fuck even on Adult Swim which may as well be called Teen Swim at this point. Naruto I`ll grant you a lot of the filler was unnecessary.
+Crafterkid123 "Bardock:Father of Goku" was filler and it was awesome so what was that you said about all filler being bad?
This is amazing <3
<3 this band so much
This song brought back so many memories from FMAB.
@Regio Foxbow Not really, you're just an idiot.
@Fenella Druce Am I the only one who thought that FMA was more accuate the FMA:B especially considering that Brotherhood started by following them on a random mission and THEY LEARNED ABOUT HUMUNCULI IN EPISODE 2
+Sir Anonymous brotherhood was a remake because the first one was released before the manga series finished and it went wildly off track, although the start of the first one was more accurate because, well, i guess they didn't want the first ten or so episodes to be exactly the same, but the main story of brotherhood is the same as the origional manga. hope that made sense.
+Luke Cox (Flulouch) I'm pretty sure sloth was, she just wasn't shown much
FMAB is better than FMA
Holy poop it's based off FMA! Heckle yah!
This is about Fullmetal Alchemist!!!
This reminds me of when the nuke went off in Yogscast Rythian's tekkit series
@liamash141 pretty much...
@Marissa Brookhart
Mostly Rebirth
@liamash141 IKR!!!!
Its based on Fullmetal Alchemist.
Totally
Hmmm, I wander what anime this is from
