Blind Guardian - Wait For An Answer Lyrics






I cannot say that I don't care cause I'm aware
Of everyone and everything they're everywhere

Don't be a fool
Stop spinning around
(Spinning around)
You're right it ain't safe here
Start using your brain, your brain

The cautious hare cannot be seen as a coward
He's simply aware
(He constantly) knows what's going on
That the wheel of life turns on
It won't hold on

Silent creature, filthy teacher's
Spreading the disease, a release
A vanished kingdom falls

It goes on, on and on and again
It goes on, round and round
Oh I can't get it out of my head

Wish I'd be a bird of prey
A pure and a blessed
A hawk who could ease the pain

Don't look back tell me
Is it where you belong
A place in the dark
A song without hope
Don't look back tell me
Is it where you (belong)
Oh I wait for an answer so far
Don't look back tell me
Is it where you (belong)
I will wait for an answer so far
Don't look back tell me
Is it where you (belong)
I will wait yes I will wait
Don't look back

We're the last descendants
In the line of valiant soldiers
We're mistreated angels
We are the blackbird nation, we're the chosen ones
We're the last descendants
We're the tribe of unsung glory
We are the fallen angels
Well the time is right you shall be on my (side)

I don't I don't I don't need anyone
Be with or be against me
I'm white I am chosen
There is not the slightest doubt at all
Not at all

In lower airs we're ground down by their ignorance

Hate will grow like a foul cancer
To find a foe seems to be the answer
Round and round it goes on and again oh
I can't get it out of my head

Wish I'd be a bird of prey
A pure and a blessed
A hawk who could ease the pain

Don't look back tell me
Is it where you belong
A place in the dark
A song without hope
Don't look back tell me
Is it where you (belong)
Oh I wait for an answer so far
Don't look back tell me
Is it where you (belong)
I will wait for an answer so far
Don't look back tell me
Is it where you (belong)
I will wait yes I will wait
Don't look back

Don't be a fool
Stop spinning around
(Spinning around)
Don't move it ain't safe here
They've stained holy grounds
Oh no

The hopeful he sadly admits there's no hero
No place to hide there is no shelter from the storm
The maddened crow will spread terror
But I know bitterly they will stumble
Find themselves smashed on the ground

Don't look back tell me
Is it where you belong
A place in the dark
A song without hope
Don't look back tell me
Is it where you (belong)
Oh I wait for an answer so far
Don't look back tell me
Is it where you (belong)
I will wait for an answer so far
Don't look back tell me
Is it where you (belong)
I will wait yes I will wait
Don't look back

It's you who has said there's no tomorrow
I don't know but who I am
I wouldn't sit back any longer
It's surely built in sadness
But the sadness surely will go by
So we will all know the answer
The answer's within, it's in your mind

  1. S.... H....

    I miss Thomen

  2. R.... E....

    5:54 I came here for this.

  3. N.... R....

    Pretty sure this uses the example of a hare and crow and likens it to a peaceful and a aggressive nationalist nation. Its shows the indoctrenation through the zealous "I am chosen" kind of lines and then it shows the perspective through the definitive omniscient voice which surveys the cycle of fascism likened to a foul cancer infesting past its territories which repeats itself all too much in our world. It highlights ignorance as the main cause of this constantly repeating stop spinning around. But in the end in the conclusive verse says despite this these maddened and insular nations will find themsleves "Smashed upon the ground" it basically asks the world to come up with an answer and confront this facism. Its pretty relelvant at the moment with how many nationalist states have taken root recently. All it takes is for some blind hatred and history will repeat itself unless we call it out first. Great song though

    N.... R....

    >nationalism is fascism
    yikes

    N.... R....

    @Minimon it allows for an environment which encourages fascism to grow. Obviously it doesnt always, but its still dangerous. All it takes is for some other factors such as economic depression to force the populace to shortcuts for big problems. Effectively scapegoating entire ethnicities for your problems and militarising your nation to act out nationalist belief.

    N.... R....

    Remember when it says " the answer within its in your mind" Thou

    N.... R....

    But... It's a song about two of the Nine, Fox and Hare, ruining the plans of their nominal leader, Crow, from a fairy tale that Hansi wrote which later became backstory for Beyond the Red Mirror. While some ties could be drawn between Crow and fascism, both Mordred the Fallen Son and Caesar the technocrat fit fascism better.

  4. c.... c....

    The most no bullshit intro

  5. a.... ....

    Perfect song, and really underrated

  6. D.... R....

    This song has driven me insane after I was continuously listening it for several months. At the same time the 3rd Eye opened for me and I partially transited into another dimension of (un)reality. I had the True vision and could manipulate the future. HAIL BLIND GUARDIAN. The GODS of Metal.

    D.... R....

    Dubai Rider Glad to see that you also understand the deep,spiritual and divine messages from Blind Guardian <3

    D.... R....

    @Blind Bosnian i do as well

    D.... R....

    @Jeff Timmerman Nice to hear that!

    Also, holy fucking shit! It's been a year already? Damn!

    D.... R....

    And yet you didn't find the red mirror. Nice try, false saviour.

  7. E.... ....

    The guitar solo is somewhat beyond incredible!

  8. D.... ....

    What a song

  9. B.... R....

    This is easily their most under-appreciated song. No one ever seems to mention it when it comes to their all time greats, but in my opinion, this is one of their best.

    B.... R....

    W8 what is ANatO?

    B.... R....

    Sir Solo a night at the opera. This album. Also a Queen album. I paid a lot of money for both vinyls hahaha.

    B.... R....

    Oh lol I thought it was a song and I couldn't figure out for the life of me what the title was

    B.... R....

    Always been among my favorites from this album

    B.... R....

    Same here! I hope one day will hear this live...
