"THE LIGHT" BY DISTURBED -- THE SONG OF THE WEEK, YOU WANT TO LISTEN TO (VIDEO, AUDIO, LYRICS, FACTS,etc)

Disturbed Band

A Powerful metal song by the American Band DISTURBED, it was released on their album IMMORTALIZED on June 23rd, 2015(Two month before the Album itself release on 21st August 2015). The lyrics were written by Warner Lyrics in collaboration with the band members( The band comprises vocalist David Draiman, bassist John Moyer, guitarist Dan Donegan, and drummer Mike Wengren.). This is a meaningful song about hope and drives you to realize your strength and to grow the necessary persistence to sustain all injuries caused by life. Forsaken? No more, it's time to rise. And hope won't become just a memory, it's a new state of mind.

It was their second music video from their #1 album, Immortalized, this time for “The Light.” This is the second music video from Immortalized, the first being “The Vengeful One” which came out this past summer (and sort of landed the band in some hot water after the murder of two journalists on live TV).

Immortalized is the sixth studio album by American heavy metal band Disturbed. The album was released on August 21, 2015 through Reprise Records

Vocalist David Draiman explained the meaning behind “The Light”  in an interview with Loudwire:

“You know, the only way that you get to appreciate the darkness is by contrasting it with light. I think that people have utilized our music in particular to get them through the difficult periods in their lives, to triumph against adversity, to overcome obstacles. And it’s been my experience, with people in my life, or friends that I have or have had, that sometimes those periods in our lives that are dark ones can be so daunting and you let them overwhelm you to the extent that you succumb to hopelessness and you succumb to stagnation. And the truth be told, everything is a pathway. Sometimes you have to go through dark periods in your life in order to find the answer that you need, in order to become stronger, in order to see the light, per se. And it’s just putting things in that perspective.”

LYRICS OF "THE LIGHT" BY DISTURBED



Like an unsung melody

The truth is waiting there for you to find it

It's not a blight, but a remedy

A clear reminder of how it began

Deep inside your memory

Turned away as you struggled to find it

You heard the call as you walked away

A voice of calm from within the silence

And for what seemed an eternity

You're waiting, hoping it would call out again

You heard the shadow reckoning

Then your fears seemed to keep you blinded

You held your guard as you walked away


CHORUS

When you think all is forsaken

Listen to me now (all is not forsaken)

You need never feel broken again

Sometimes darkness can show you the light



An unforgivable tragedy

The answer isn't' where you think you'd find it

Prepare yourself for the reckoning

For when your world seems to crumble again

Don't be afraid, don't turn away

You're the one who can redefine it

Don't let hope become a memory

Let the shadow permeate your mind and

Reveal the thoughts that were tucked away

So that the door can be opened again

Within your darkest memories

Lies the answer if you dare to find it

Don't let hope become a memory



CHORUS

When you think all is forsaken

Listen to me now (all is not forsaken)

You need never feel broken again

Sometimes darkness can show you the light



Sickening, weakening

Don't let another somber pariah consume your soul

You need strengthening, toughening

It takes an inner dark to rekindle the fire burning in you

Ignite the fire within you



When you think all is forsaken

Listen to me now (all is not forsaken)

You need never feel broken again

Sometimes darkness can show you the light



Don't ignore, listen to me now (all is not forsaken)

You need never feel broken again

Sometimes darkness

Can show you the light
