This song makes me think of the hero of the DragonForce story being in a padded cell in a mental asylum, vividly remembering all the things that had happened as if they were happening right now. Then, right now, aware that he's actually in a mental asylum, trying to kill himself... and failing, because something in the wars made him immortal. That's what this song reminds me of. It's way creepier in my head than it is in this comment.
I'm a big fan of Dragonforce and I have been since before sonic firestorm was released. While I still love the band to death I always thought that there first two albums were better than imhuman rampage and ultra beatdown, but this song and strike of the ninja prove me wrong. This song has one of the best choruses of almost any song I have ever heard its just utterly fantastic!
@YaYoViO11 GRRR! Seriously you should listen to other DragonForce songs rather than through the fire and flames. Your bound to find other songs you prefer.
@DragonforceFan73 Let's hope it doesn't come to that. Herman Li vs Sam Totman is an epic video game-esque battle. But Sam Totman vs Sam Totman vs Herman Li vs Herman Li.....Say goodbye to all of existence. Nothing can handle that epicness.
I say ZP left because he prefered doing softer kind of music like starfire and dawn over a new world, but the others prefered to play faster. This is what I call: Insormountable musical opinions (differences)
If you agree, thumb up this comment, copy and paste it on all dragonforce videos!
@TheBaneOfTheWorld Yeah. It's creepy. I don't think it's about sex, though. Which, being that there's only one other thing it could be about... Now I've made it even more creepy. You're welcome.
@AcrossTheEchoes most of dragonforce's songs have a much deeper meaning, this 1 is actually rape, rohypnofied for example Rohypnol is a date rape drug and 'innocence' can be a word used for virginity
in my top 5 favorites def! idk how many times ive listened to it i love DRAGONFORCE! cant wait for new album twilight dementia hope new singer is good!
i like the music, but the lyrics.... not so much, so ima have 2 not like this vid. srry dragonforce + dragonforce fans, at least im not disliking, thts just being an ignorant jerk. btw, just to be clear tht im not a hater, Dragonforce Ftw!
My thought on the song is at some point its from the perspective of the rapist, while at the other its the victim who was raped when they were younger (either a child or just a younger adult, so it is in the present and flashes back to the crime) and is wrestling with coming of age and sexual urges, causing them to hate themselves and possibly commit suicide or at least attempt to. Either way its nice they stretched their creative muscles a bit. Can't wait to hear how the new singer performs.
@hoagiesupreme Odd. I thought I was the only one thinking that.
Anyway, This is a pretty awesome song. I do prefer their other songs, mainly strike of the ninja for those wondering, but this is still a pretty good song.
11 people have no awesome Scars of Yesterday. It had to be said.
It's odd, you know, that this song is one of the only Dragonforce songs that actually about something specific. A lot of their songs are just 'war' 'steel' 'freedom' 'universe', but this one actually seems to be about someone trying to cope with abuse and wishing to escape from their haunted feelings. It also has a memorable guitar track! What an amazing Dragonforce song. I hope their new album is more of this.
@SamosIMP Its from an old game i played, I think it was one of the OLD ninja turtles games. One of their other songs has the excitebike at the begining.
Jesus they may not be able to play everything live because when they record the albums, they have many times to touch and clean up the music. Its all playable live but dont ask for a perfect performance
