Text: Vnv Nation. Solitary EP. Solitary - Signals Version.

Set me aflame and cast me free.
Through the endless night and day
Away, you wretched world of tethers.
Always thought that I would stand
I have never wanted more.
before the faceless name of justice.
Like some law unto myself,
like a child of God again.

And if rain brings winds of change
I have no doubt from what I've seen
let it rain on us forever.
that I have never wanted more.
as a symbol of beginning.
With this line I'll mark the past
I have no doubt from what I've seen
that I have never wanted more.

far away, alone and distant.
In this picture stands a man,
Like a solitary field
in some nameless foreign land.
All around the points of light
start to dim and cease transmitting.
Shadows fell on futile games

and then there was nothing more.
By the light of flares and wisdom.
Through the screams of falling steel.
All the doubts I could not face.
With a line I'll mark the past
All this time I wanted more.
as a symbol of beginning.
To the gods whose names we've lost
and the names who gave in vain.

let it rain on us forever.
And if rain brings winds of change
I have no doubt from what I've seen

that I have never wanted more.
With this line I'll mark the past
as a symbol of beginning.
I have no doubt from what I've seen
that I have never wanted more.
Set me aflame and cast me free.

Through the endless night and day
Away, you wretched world of tethers.
Always thought that I would stand
I have never wanted more.
before the faceless name of justice.
Like some law unto myself,


like a child of God again.
And if rain brings winds of change
I have no doubt from what I've seen
let it rain on us forever.
that I have never wanted more.
as a symbol of beginning.
With this line I'll mark the past
that I have never wanted more.
I have no doubt from what I've seen

Sever the line to the guilty past,
to the ones who brought us nothing
Spoke of futures brave and proud
and brought only hate and war.
Lined the roads with hollow praise.
Marked the land with paper statues.

Shadows fell on their futile ways
and then there was nothing more.
