Delain - Invidia Lyrics






My achievements seem so humble
While you're making wine from water
While my hands work the cold soil
All you touch turns into gold
And I don't want to be like you

I don't want to be like you
It seems like you outrun me every time
I want to be you
Why can't I erase you from my mind

I don't want to be like you
It seems like you outrun me every time
I want to be you
Why can't I erase you from my mind

All the heroes in the gutter
Finally get their ever after
As they lay their final glance
Upon your ever shining armor
And I don't want to be like you

I don't want to be like you
It seems like you outrun me every time
I want to be you
Why can't I erase you from my mind

I don't want to be like you
It seems like you outrun me every time
I want to be you
Why can't I erase you from my mind

Looking from a distance
The difference seems so small
Has the grass been greener
On the other side at all?

I don't want to be like you
It seems like you outrun me every time
I want to be you
Why can't I erase you from my mind

I don't want to be like you
It seems like you outrun me every time
I want to be you
Why can't I erase you from my mind

Delain Invidia Comments
  1. J.... S....

    Delain y Nightwish 💙

  2. V.... S....

    So I was looking for the name of the guy who sings at 2:50
    Turns out it's Ronald Landa, who also did the grunts as far as I know.

    The guy can SING! He should have done so WAY more. I will now look what he's up to these days, hoping it's another powermetalband where he's the lead SINGER

    V.... S....

    +Volkmar Schoger I love when he sings. He is sounds so cool! I love Invidia.

  3. G.... B....

    Found out of this band today by chance. What an album . Thanks for upload.

  4. k.... ....

    Why did you mess it up? 

  5. t.... ....

    i like Delainb but songs like Invidia are too...,. sweet

  6. M.... A....

    yeah this song came up on my Avantasia radio

  7. R.... S....

    Dudes dont fight , every band has it is special sound , so listen to it or just leave that video , dont say it sucks because you cant understand ........

  8. L.... D....

    I really like the music, but to be honest the girl's voice is way too poppy.

  9. a.... ....

    I normally HATE metal but I find myself captivated by Delain and Within Temptation etc..

  10. j.... ....

    Awesome!!!!!

  11. A.... F....

    Damn all these subgenres, just call it metal and everyone will be pleased!

  12. A.... A....

    they are a totally different genre IMO... therefore do not compare... Nightwish as well as delain have a lot of funs and quality music therefore the dispute is nonexistent

  13. A.... A....

    i am not totally into this kind of music but i adore them!

  14. W.... T....

    Found this band from Pandora....very impressed.

  15. S.... ....

    Invidia. "The way it's meant to be played"
    (don'tkillmeplease)

  16. S.... ....

    21 "Baby", "Friday", "It's Thanksgiving" fans so far :/

  17. S.... Y....

    NVIDIA CUDA tutorial has sent me here.

  18. A.... I....

    pandora just played me this, thank you

  19. J.... ....

    PS. Invidia = Envy

  20. C.... R....

    delain, the best!

  21. K.... H....

    delain, onr of the best!

  22. M.... ....

    Yes, I have to agree with you. They are very talented! Often I find, good music such as this is ridiculed, shunned from many stubborn minded people that are missing out on the bigger picture. It's really a shame! So many people SNAGGED in the MAINSTREAM MUSIC. They have NO IDEA what they are missing out on. ...not yet
    By the way PhoenixAngel1000, Epica is also very "Epic." Check them out! I'm sure you won't be disappointed. I've been listening to this sort of music for years now. GB!

  23. D.... H....

    The band from Unsun and the singer from Nightwish, I def. agree

  24. N.... Z....

    Heard this on Pandora for my phone and was blown away, still sounded great even on a shitty phone speaker. got home and put this thing on my surround system and Now i love this band. really great.

  25. P.... ....

    @ Vissionary
    I agree. I love the april rain album by delain. I love the dark passion play album by nightwish and I love all of within temptation. They each have their own strengths

  26. J.... F....

    @xmorg Yeah, either that or they like Justin Bieber.

  27. v.... ....

    stop comparing them! they're their own awesome :)

  28. K.... S....

    Their songs sound great but Delain's compositions are so easy and simple, to get to the level of other bands like nightwish still lack a lot ...

  29. L.... ....

    old Nightwish, was a bit better. But the singer from Delain got another style. both great. Awesome Band !!

  30. h.... ....

    You cannot compare Nightwish and Delain their both pure awesomeness!

  31. O.... ....

    Delain vs Nightwish

  32. J.... J....

    @xmorg That's a little presumptuous. I love Delain, but I dont' dislike Rebecca's Friday, considering there are shittier artists out there who are actually making money out of their so-called singing (ahem.. Rap.. ahem).

  33. t.... ....

    her voice is beautiful! o.o im enchanted now

  34. T.... D....

    @Chchonoob True words...

  35. a.... ....

    THE WAY ITS MEANT TO BE PLAYED!!!! YEEEESSS!!!!!!

  36. I.... K....

    hohoo beautyfull song

  37. Z.... ....

    I don't wanna be like you... but I wanna be like HER!

  38. P.... ....

    1 year ago I discovered this band. Two days ago, I went to their concert and had the privilege to meet them in person, talk to them and take pictures. They are great and were totally above my expectations! They are very friendly, funny and down to earth!

    I feel really privileged to have had the opportunity to meet them, and will definitely be going to another show again!!!

  39. C.... ....

    Killer song, so fucking good.

  40. b.... ....

    whats wrong with the clip it keeps skipping ahead?

  41. v.... ....

    @CrazyCheeseCurlz
    How could the awesomeness of this song make you deaf?

    im telling you, i was deaf BEFORE i listened to this song...

    This song has cured me of my deafness <333 delain <333

  42. D.... M....

    GAHHHHHH WHAT?? I CAN'T HEAR YOU!! THE AWESOMENESS OF THIS SONG MADE ME GO DEAF.

  43. c.... ....

    Man shes got an amazing voice

  44. j.... ....

    @topographicoceans11 PS - I adore Epica (but not all their stuff)

  45. j.... ....

    @topographicoceans11 No they're not Trolls - they are my genuine reactions to this music. But it is unfair to Delain fans so that comment's gone too. Any other comments I made - let me know and I'll delete those too (sorry - I must have swallowed a bitch pill that day!). The 'champ' has hit the deck with the referee counting .....

  46. a.... s....

    i like your hair

  47. v.... D....

    i love this sooo much :P

  48. M.... ....

    @DancingTofu2 Delain generally perform with other acts when they're here in the Netherladns. They were great as Sonata's supports, together with Winterborn.
    I'm sure you'll get to see them sooner or later though, don't fret :P.

  49. C.... B....

    @Mythically I'm jealous ;D

  50. M.... ....

    @DancingTofu2 They've already played with Sonata Arctica. 'Twas last year, here in the Netherlands.

    Great shows, definitely. Can't wait to see Delain grow into something great.

  51. K.... ....

    @eabbdb paint:D it's all about paint;) XD

  52. C.... B....

    @chizzieshark
    This band was not only heavily influenced by Nightwish, their studio recordings in 2006, 2008, and 2009 had Marco Hietala of Nightwish on bass and backup vocals

    I agree that they're good, and will get much better, and I look forward to hearing them as they develop (maybe see them play with NW or Sonata Arctica some time? :D)

  53. M.... T....

    this and frozen are epic songs.

  54. c.... ....

    'April Rain' is a good album. Some songs do sound very Nightwish-like though, but not as complex or dark as Nightwish. Especially some intros...

    Nonetheless, Delain is a good band, but not yet at the top of their game. I think their next album will be even better.

  55. L.... s....

    @Bellaking101398 not only eluveitie, try to hear Rhapsody of fire and Epica, and of course Tarja Turunen, they're really good!!!

  56. H.... ....

    @Kapuzina1337 fanboy.

    KIDDING!!!!

  57. D.... ....

    I went to see these guys at Sonisphere i never heard of them before but they played a great show and i really like them now.
    P.S the singer is a total babe <3

  58. L.... M....

    invidia=envy

  59. C.... R....

    Great song!!
    by the way:
    invidia is latin for jealousy

  60. H.... ....

    I ve seen them live, yeaah :D

  61. P.... ....

    for fucks sake not every1 speaks german

  62. s.... ....

    Das geht ja mal gar nicht ;)

    Minimal zu pompös, aber musikalisch ordentlich Schub und n geiler Gesang dazu.
    Lohnt sich auf jeden Fall mal über ein paar 15"er zu hören ;)

  63. e.... c....

    Beatifull voice, so sweet

  64. J.... R....

    we are waiting in Mexico

  65. I.... W....

    Actually, it's not death metal. It's melodious metalcore. Arch Enemy is definitely death metal, xD. And I agree, Alissa White-Gluz is fucking hot.

  66. N.... ....

    Bleh. I only like one song from them - the one where she actually sings! Not a fan of death metal, even if it's a chick singing. Same with Arch Enemy.

    ... she's fucking hot though!

  67. I.... W....

    I think Agonist beats them all. But whatever, Delain sounds nice.

  68. J.... C....

    Hello, how are you doing?
    Charlotte you´re beautiful!

  69. i.... ....

    I love this song, and this band <3 And i have to say, the beginning 0:01-0:20 is quite relaxing and amazing <3 the rest of the song just rocks
    This is a quite unique band and what can i say, it's great!

  70. F.... F....

    The best Dutsh is Epica.
    But this band is not bad too.

  71. N.... ....

    Delain > Sirenia. I was kinda bored by Sirenia, but I liked Delain the first time I heard them.

  72. H.... ....

    I've seen them live :D

  73. E.... C....

    langweilig -.-

  74. T.... ....

    Nope. I was speaking from my standpoint, had I made the song and been looking back on it. People are free to be who they are, and feel as they wish to.

  75. b.... ....

    @TOTTW Why, because you think people shouldn't express themselves? Would you want people telling you to be ashamed of yourself for just being who you are?

  76. A.... ....

    @MattyTheSuperChicken: WTF? That joke is so bad that it's actually funny. I applaud your terrible humour.

  77. T.... ....

    Pllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll. The person that wrote this song should be ashamed of themselves.

  78. p.... ....

    While you're making wine from water ;-)...

  79. T.... M....

    "While you're making wine from water" :-)

  80. j.... ....

    does she say "while your making life from water"?
