Misted windows hide your empty eyes
Every moment, every whisper
Separates you from me
I’ve been screaming
Won’t you let me in?
Let me see a trace of the places hidden
Under your skin
Answer me
'Til that day that you do
I’ll be one step behind you
Answer me
'Til the day that you do
I’ll be waiting here for you
Answer me
'Til that day that you do
I’ll be one step behind you
Answer me
'Til the day that you do…
Needles sting me when you look away
And your silence sounds like deafening screams to me
I’ve been waiting, won’t you open your heart?
And let me in, please let me in
Answer me
'Til that day that you do
I’ll be one step behind you
Answer me
'Til the day that you do
I’ll be waiting here for you
Answer me
'Til that day that you do
I’ll be one step behind you
Answer me
'Til the day that you do…
Free your mind from doubt, all you have is now
Free your mind from shame, it will only bring you pain
Answer me
'Til that day that you do
I’ll be one step behind you
Answer me
'Til the day that you do
I’ll be waiting here for you
Answer me

Discovered this band with some friends in 2019 when we went to Download festival for Slash, Whitesnake and Def Leppard. Man was this band a hidden gem at the festival. First time hearing them was live and they were fantastic. Excellent musicianship and Charlotte has such good stage presence which just adds to the already brilliant performance. Safe to say we will all definitely be going to see Delain again.
This whole time Ive been listening to the remastered version, and the og version just makes me super uncomfortable. Instead of "answer me" its "show me" in the remaster and it sounds so much smoother. Then Delain has another song thats sounds like they combined 10 of their songs into one song, its not bad but sure as heck felt weird and confusing listening to it.
i'm a fan. music in europe is getting better thanks to bands like this. thanks for being so great Delain. I got to know them cause i love, love love love...... within temptation, but, really, Delain, awesome.
I remember hearing this song for the first time years ago and becoming instantly hooked. I must have listened to it that day at least 10 times.
In my opinion, Cristina Scabbia from Lacuna Coil has a more powerful voice than Charlotte, but that doesn't mean I think Cristina is better. I actually like both of them equally. Anyway, that's just one opinion.
I've always considered Delain to be Within Temptation's Sister-Band because of the Westerholt brothers. (Robert in Within Temptation and Martijn in Delain.)
