SOEN – Sincere Lyrics

Artist or band: SOEN

Song language: English

Year of issue: 2023

Description: 'Sincere' from our the new album 𝐌𝐄𝐌𝐎𝐑𝐈𝐀𝐋! Memorial is drenched in melody with face-crushing guitars and rhythms from start to finish. Album opener ‘Sincere’ starts off with relentless propulsion, whilst the sheer power of the title track is enriched with a solid groove, underlying the weighty tones and evocative vocals of Joel Ekelöf. Finishing with the beautiful, tragic, Pink Floyd-esque ballad ‘Vitals’, Memorial is arguably the band finding their best stride yet. Soen have been building up to this moment for years and now they’re here with Memorial, which is an inspiring modern hard rock classic.

SOEN – Sincere Lyrics

Is it us or them?
See the light they lit for us all
Just to show how respect we are
‘Cause we are slaves of these modern times
Where we all demand to be stars

They’re feeding us to the hounds

Time goes fast and life moves away
There’s no time to turn it around
And everyone who is born in our time
Is programmed to take up their part
They’re keeping us underground

You wanna be someone with self-respect
For the “likes” you chase they don’t mean anything
You wanna feel something that is sincere
And the words you’ll say will be the spear
That strikes the lies they’re telling us are the rules

Play your role in this modern farce
Feed your thirst for stardom and pride
But be aware the truth won’t erase
And you are the seeds that you plant

In shallowness we all drown

Are you here? Are you real?
Do you reflect on the water?
And you pretend that you matter
Setting a price on your thoughts

Is it life to conceal genuine value of others?
Selling your heart for a dollar
Wearing your greed as a crown

For the “likes” you chase, they don’t mean anything
You wanna feel something that is sincere
And the words you’ll say will be the spear
That strikes the lies they’re telling us are rules
