Sonata Arctica - Zeroes Lyrics






...Dancing on the borderline...
...4-3-2-1...

Hello, although I'm a static Zero.
I'm fighting all your wars,
While you dwell in your hypocrisy
You think the world is fine,
When all the evil's overlined
Before you wake up this morning...

Well, hello there, you're the local superhero?
Your stronghold's but a paper bag,
We suffer for your promised land
Excuse is really thin,
Hide your revealed Achilles' heel...
Before a new brave morning...

All you little superheroes,
Fall short without all them zeroes
A pie in the sky is your brave new world,

And so powerless are thy miracles...

Ones, they walk before the rows of O's,
And soon it dawns on them, how to make billions...

Dream up a world, oh how powerless are thy miracles...
...I'm so tired to fight you
The Sun is, oh, so desperate to set tonight,
Ashamed to light a lie...

All you little superheroes,
Fall short without all them zeroes
The pie in the sky's your brave new world,

Your homestead's not yours much longer...

These people win elections, empowered by you!
These wars are never ending, acceptance just mind-bending

It's a conspiracy and as always the end is here
We were born that day...
This destiny wrote us a life we now waste away
Waste it away, do it today...

My life is fine, so why would I care...
Because it's not my ass, per se, on the line.

All you little superheroes...

...Dancing on the borderline...
4-3-2-1-do it today!

Sonata Arctica Zeroes Comments
  1. L.... F....

    I love this.
    I cannot count how many times I listen to this song...

  2. C.... H....

    The bible telling the truth Badoo song they have written World War 3 is is upon us to this song speak the truth about this bad so I'm thinking this band is God

  3. A.... K....

    Reminds me of Trump

    A.... K....

    Yup. And they have a newer song that actually IS calling out Trump..."Fairytale" from "The Ninth Hour".

  4. J.... W....

    "dancing on the butterknife"

  5. A.... ....

    I love that scream at the beginning. Not the best scream, not by a long shot, but the best by Sonata (from what I've heard).
    I also kinda like that one from Deathaura - "and until I get my peace, I'm but a SHAAAAAAAADE!!!"

  6. L.... N....

    "Ones, they walk before the rows of O's,
    and soon it dawns on them, how to make billions..."
    You have no idea how much I love this line.

  7. S.... ....

    "Pie in the sky" is an actual saying. It means an idea that's nice to think about but couldn't actually happen in reality.

    S.... ....

    ... Basically another way of saying "too good to be true."

  8. O.... B....

    After ''Abandoned, Pleased, Brainwashed, Exploited'', ''San Sebastian'', ''The Cage'', ''Wolf & Raven'', ''Victoria's Secret'' etc... , what is this? You need some speed :D

    O.... B....

    I'm glad there's not as many speed songs anymore, got repetitive.

  9. P.... 3....

    wtf pie? wtf not my ass?
    if that is correct then wtf is tony drunk?

  10. P.... 3....

    this song is good actually why ppl complaining lewl and its not a pie

  11. P.... ....

    i think it is up high not a pie

  12. B.... C....

    pie in the sky wtf xD

  13. V.... j....

    sonata arctica on paras

  14. L.... B....

    suena bien

  15. A.... S....

    The lyrics are very deep, actually. Love this song for its spoken denounces. Too bad that I see nobody talking about it on the comments. Maybe they're just on the learning phase of text interpreting.

    A.... S....

    I can only count to 3 and the intro starts from 4 and counts backwards. I'm trying to wrap my head around that still.

    A.... S....

    Thx man, as always, their lyrics are splendid, full of 2nd degrees, as cloud factory too, and many mores. That keyboard solo tho <3

  16. m.... ....

    Dan sing on the borderline
    Dan sing on the borderline
    (...)
    Dan sing: "WHHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA" Four, three, two, one. :P

  17. c.... v....

    muy buena cancion 

  18. 4.... E....

    It is " Up high in the sky is your brave new world " and " Because it's not my ass, per se, on the line.
     "

  19. T.... M....

    Also I am almost positive the band themselves confirmed it was "This is not my last Crusade." not "This is not my ass."

    T.... M....

    No. It's definitely ass there, as perse is ass in Finnish. Brilliant line.

    T.... M....

    Ah, very fascinating. And brilliant as you said.

  20. T.... M....

    It's definitely pie in the sky.

  21. m.... w....

    Up high in the sky's your brave new world
    NOT A PIE

  22. T.... ....

    a pie in the sky?? You sure it`s not fire in the sky? :)

  23. C.... ....

    It is.

  24. N.... C....

    Tony <3<3<3 :D

  25. D.... B....

    I heard talk of Tony putting out a solo album.
    I can imagine it's going to be quite similar to this.

    This is some of the most amazing music I've ever heard.

  26. G.... R....

    this song makes me want to march though town singing dancing on the borderlind.... and all you little superheroes....

  27. p.... ....

    my neighbours just absolutely LOVE this song !

  28. L.... B....

    just amazing :O i love to listen to their music...it always makes me feel free and helped me through my darkest hours...thank you guys for making this great music :)

  29. J.... J....

    I thought this was a song about math problems

  30. a.... ....

    different yet familiar... Perfection :3

  31. B.... ....

    @stefanasso Well they don't want to they the same, they want to continue to be a credible creative band. I didn't like it at first but now i love the whole album as much as the rest.

  32. S.... B....

    I want the old Sonata Arctica.. This is not them...

  33. s.... ....

    @neofrio si todas cambian, pero cambian para bien. sonata arctica cambio para mal, unia fue una reberenda basura y este nuevo disco no lo he oido completo pero las que he oido no estan tan mal, pero igual no estan al nivel musical necesario para considerarlas "Buenas" mas bien se estan recuperando de la tormenta que fue unia. quisas el siguiente disco este ya mejor, lo que si ya es seguro esk nunca regresaran o mejoraran el nivel que tenian en ecliptica o en silence.

  34. R.... ....

    @spartannoob Sorry pero no comparto contigo. TODAS las bandas absolutamente TODAS cambian, no hay NINGUNA que se haya mantenido siempre en una línea musical y eso tiene que ver porque las personas cambian... Siempre tienes la opción de quedarte con el primer material y es aceptable. En lo personal me desagrada Unia pero TTOG me ha vuelto a reencantar.

    Saludos

  35. A.... J....

    "My ass, per se, on the line" made me lol. "perse" in finnish is "ass". :D

  36. N.... ....

    Dancing on the boderline!! Dancing on the boderline!! Dancing on the boderline!!

    This song is so fucking good dudes!!!!!

  37. A.... V....

    Me guesta mas el album the Una.

  38. s.... ....

    extraño a la vieja sonata arctica, el progresivo dejenselo a dream theater, aeon zen, andromeda, symphony x, animations, cynic, opeth, tool, etc....
    sonata nacio para el power, porque se aferran a cambiar, el progresivo no les queda, la voz de tony es de todo un cantante de power metal, los riffs, la bataca, absolutamente todo, no descepcionen a sus fans haciendose cree los nuevos pink floyd o rush, mejor traten de superar a stratovarius, blind guardian, y bandas de power!!!

  39. a.... ....

    Best song of the album!
