Words Mean Nothing

Evergrey · A Decade And A Half [2012]

My sanity has left me

My trust died with you

What is left are only pieces

My tears fall for you



I'm gonna fly

I'm gonna roll

I'm gonna thunder



So I place the roses

So gently on your grave

And I still remember

I can feel the flames

And I know I have failed

and my promises nothing worth

I see it all so clear

But my words mean nothing



I'm gonna fly

I'm gonna roll

I'm gonna thunder



My sanity has left me

The trust I once had has died

What is left are only pieces

All my words been proven lies

Been proven lies

If I could I would

Fly roll thunder

All for just another chance to speak with you

Show you

But my words...

But my words mean...

Nothing

Words Mean Nothing - Evergrey

From the 2012 album A Decade And A Half, Evergrey's 'Words Mean Nothing' exemplifies the band's signature blend of progressive metal and melodic power. Released during a period where the group refined their complex time signatures and atmospheric textures, the track showcases vocalist Johan Liiva's emotive delivery and the ensemble's tight, driving rhythm section. The song reflects the thematic depth characteristic of Evergrey's discography, exploring existential themes through a polished production style that bridges their early 90s roots with modern metal sensibilities. As a staple of their live performances and studio recordings, it remains a defining piece of the Swedish melodic death metal scene.
