In the Shadows
Aki Hakala, Eero Heinonen, Lauri Yloenen, Pauli Rantasalmi
No sleep
No sleep until I'm done with finding the answer
Won't stop
Won't stop before I find a cure for this cancer
Sometimes I feel like going down I'm so disconnected
Somehow I know that I am haunted to be wanted
I've been watching, I've been waiting
In the shadows for my time
I've been searching, I've been living
For tomorrow's all my life
In the shadows
In the shadows
They say that I must learn to kill before I can feel safe
But I, I'd rather kill myself than turn into their slave
Sometimes I feel that I should go and play with the thunder
Somehow I just don't want to stay and wait for a wonder
I've been watching, I've been waiting
In the shadows for my time
I've been searching, I've been living
For tomorrow all my life
Lately, I've been walking, walking in circles
Watching, waiting for something
Feel me, touch me, heal me
Come take me higher
I've been watching, I've been waiting
In the shadows for my time
I've been searching, I've been living
For tomorrow all my life
I've been watching, I've been waiting
I've been searching, I've been living
For tomorrow
Oh oh
Oh oh
In the shadows
Oh oh
Oh oh
In the shadows
I've been waiting
Na Penumbra da Existência: Uma Análise de In The Shadows do The Rasmus
A música 'In The Shadows' da banda finlandesa The Rasmus é uma expressão intensa de sentimentos de alienação e busca por significado. Lançada em 2003, a canção se tornou um dos maiores sucessos do grupo, marcando sua presença no cenário do rock alternativo. A letra reflete uma luta interna, um desejo de encontrar respostas e uma cura para o que é descrito como um 'câncer', uma metáfora para algo que consome o eu lírico por dentro, possivelmente um sentimento de desesperança ou uma crise existencial.
O refrão 'I've been watching, I've been waiting / In the shadows for my time' sugere uma sensação de estar à margem, observando a vida passar enquanto se espera por um momento próprio, uma oportunidade para emergir das sombras e viver plenamente. Essa espera pode ser interpretada como uma busca por propósito ou por um momento de transformação pessoal. A repetição das palavras 'watching' e 'waiting' reforça a ideia de paciência e expectativa, enquanto 'in the shadows' evoca uma imagem de ocultação ou de não pertencimento.
A canção também aborda a resistência contra a conformidade e a perda de individualidade, como visto em 'They say that I must learn to kill / Before I can feel safe'. Aqui, o eu lírico rejeita a ideia de que deve se adaptar a métodos violentos ou desumanos para se sentir protegido ou aceito. A música, portanto, se torna um hino para aqueles que se sentem deslocados e que lutam para manter sua essência em um mundo que muitas vezes exige conformidade. 'In The Shadows' é um poderoso lembrete da importância de encontrar a própria voz e viver autenticamente, mesmo que isso signifique permanecer nas sombras até que chegue a hora certa.
No sleep
Ficarei acordado
No sleep until I'm done with finding the answer
Ficarei acordado até achar a resposta
Won't stop
Não vou parar
Won't stop before I find a cure for this cancer
Não vou parar até encontrar a cura para este câncer
Sometimes I feel like going down I'm so disconnected
Às vezes eu quero me desligar estou tão desconectado
Somehow I know that I am haunted to be wanted
De alguma forma eu sei que eu fico assombrado em ser procurado
I've been watching, I've been waiting
Eu tenho assistido, eu tenho esperado
In the shadows for my time
Nas sombras pela minha vez
I've been searching, I've been living
Eu tenho procurado, eu tenho vivido
For tomorrow's all my life
No futuro por toda a minha vida
In the shadows
Nas sombras
In the shadows
Nas sombras
They say that I must learn to kill before I can feel safe
Eles dizem que eu tenho que aprender a matar para que eu possa me sentir seguro
But I, I'd rather kill myself than turn into their slave
Mas eu, eu prefiro me matar do que virar escravo deles
Sometimes I feel that I should go and play with the thunder
Às vezes eu sinto que eu devo brincar com o trovão
Somehow I just don't want to stay and wait for a wonder
De alguma forma eu não quero ficar e esperar por um milagre
I've been watching, I've been waiting
Eu tenho assistido, eu tenho esperado
In the shadows for my time
Nas sombras pela minha vez
I've been searching, I've been living
Eu tenho procurado, eu tenho vivido
For tomorrow all my life
No futuro por toda a minha vida
Lately, I've been walking, walking in circles
Ultimamente, tenho andado, andado em círculos
Watching, waiting for something
Observando, esperando por alguma coisa
Feel me, touch me, heal me
Me sente, me toca, me cura
Come take me higher
Vem e eleva meu espírito
I've been watching, I've been waiting
Eu tenho assistido, eu tenho esperado
In the shadows for my time
Nas sombras pela minha vez
I've been searching, I've been living
Eu tenho procurado, eu tenho vivido
For tomorrow all my life
No futuro por toda a minha vida
I've been watching, I've been waiting
Eu tenho assistido, eu tenho esperado
I've been searching, I've been living
Eu tenho procurado, eu tenho vivido
For tomorrow
No futuro

Sometimes I feel like going down I'm so disconnected
A veces siento que me derrumbo, estoy tan desconectado

A veces, siento que debería ir a jugar con los truenos

Sometimes I feel like going down I'm so disconnected
Parfois j'ai envie de tout lâcher, je suis déconnecté
Somehow I know that I am haunted to be wanted
Je sais que je suis destiné à être recherché
I've been watching, I've been waiting
Je regarde, j'attends
In the shadows for my time
Dans l'ombre que le moment soit venu
I've been searching, I've been living
Je cherche, je vis
For tomorrow's all my life
Car demain est toute ma vie
In the shadows

They say that I must learn to kill before I can feel safe
Il paraît que je dois apprendre à tuer avant de pouvoir me sentir en sécurité
But I, I'd rather kill myself than turn into their slave
Mais moi, je préfère me tuer que de devenir leur esclave
Sometimes I feel that I should go and play with the thunder
Parfois je me dis que je devrais aller jouer avec le tonnerre
Somehow I just don't want to stay and wait for a wonder
J'ai pas envie de rester attendre une merveille
I've been watching, I've been waiting
Je regarde, j'attends

Ich werde nicht aufhören, bis ich ein Heilmittel für diesen Krebs gefunden habe
Sometimes I feel like going down I'm so disconnected
Manchmal fühle ich mich, als würde ich untergehen, ich bin so isoliert
Somehow I know that I am haunted to be wanted
Irgendwie weiß ich, dass ich verfolgt werde, um gesucht zu werden
I've been watching, I've been waiting
Ich habe beobachtet, ich habe gewartet
In the shadows for my time
In den Schatten auf meine Zeit
I've been searching, I've been living
Ich habe gesucht, ich habe gelebt
For tomorrow's all my life
Für den morgigen Tag ist mein ganzes Leben
In the shadows
In den Schatten
In the shadows
In den Schatten
They say that I must learn to kill before I can feel safe
Sie sagen, dass ich lernen muss zu töten, bevor ich mich sicher fühlen kann
But I, I'd rather kill myself than turn into their slave
Aber ich würde mich lieber umbringen, als ihr Sklave zu werden
Sometimes I feel that I should go and play with the thunder
Manchmal fühle ich, dass ich gehen und mit dem Donner spielen sollte
Somehow I just don't want to stay and wait for a wonder
Irgendwie will ich nicht bleiben und auf ein Wunder warten
I've been watching, I've been waiting
Ich habe beobachtet, ich habe gewartet
In the shadows for my time
In den Schatten auf meine Zeit
I've been searching, I've been living
Ich habe gesucht, ich habe gelebt
For tomorrow all my life
Für das Morgen mein ganzes Leben
Lately, I've been walking, walking in circles
In letzter Zeit bin ich im Kreis gelaufen.
Watching, waiting for something
Beobachtend, wartend auf etwas
Feel me, touch me, heal me
Fühle mich, berühre mich, heile mich
Come take me higher
Nimm mich mit auf eine höhere Ebene
I've been watching, I've been waiting
Ich habe beobachtet, ich habe gewartet
In the shadows for my time

Sometimes I feel like going down I'm so disconnected
A volte mi sembra di andare giù, sono talmente disconnesso
Somehow I know that I am haunted to be wanted
In qualche modo so che sono perseguitato per essere desiderato
I've been watching, I've been waiting
Ho guardato, ho aspettato
In the shadows for my time
Nell'ombra per il mio tempo
I've been searching, I've been living
Ho cercato, ho vissuto
For tomorrow's all my life
Per il domani tutta la mia vita
In the shadows
Nell'ombra
In the shadows
Nell'ombra
They say that I must learn to kill before I can feel safe
Loro dicono che devo imparare ad uccidere prima di sentirmi al sicuro
But I, I'd rather kill myself than turn into their slave
Ma io, mi ammazzerei piuttosto che diventare loro schiavo
Sometimes I feel that I should go and play with the thunder
A volte sento che dovrei andare e giocare con il tuono
Somehow I just don't want to stay and wait for a wonder
In qualche modo non voglio restare qui ad aspettare il miracolo
I've been watching, I've been waiting
Ho guardato, ho aspettato
In the shadows for my time
Nell'ombra per il mio tempo

Sometimes I feel like going down I'm so disconnected
時々落ちて行くような気分になるんだ、断絶されてる
Somehow I know that I am haunted to be wanted
俺はお尋ね者になることに悩まされていると、どういうわけか知ってる
I've been watching, I've been waiting
俺はずっと見られてる、俺はずっと待ってる
In the shadows for my time

Sometimes I feel that I should go and play with the thunder
時々外へ出て雷と遊ぶべきだと感じるんだ
Somehow I just don't want to stay and wait for a wonder
どうやら俺は留まって謎を待つのは嫌なんだ
