Revolution Roulette (Live at Lost in Music) Lyrics


If this machine doesn't stop, what will you do if it never goes out
Never goes out of seasonIt never stops as it turns, there ain't no passion, yet it burns
Introducing my prisonLosing myself in this place, soon I'm gone without a trace
Freed with that final incisionLook my heart it's a bird, it needs to sing and to be heard
Not this clockwork precisionAnd the machine grows idiotic
Who's gonna be its ingenious criticEverybody loves the perfect solution
To beat the odds against the poorest possible substitution
What you see is never what you're gonna get
Everybody's playing revolution rouletteLeaves you no arguments to trade, you can try the key or you can wait
But the lock will not openSo you're left with sanity to lose, 'cause the machine is a ruse
Another invention to rule themIt's like a fistful of snake eyes, a hand grenade with bye byes
Like a million spent on nothingIt's kinda like a pick in their lock, when you never went "knock knock, hello, anybody home?
I'm coming in".
With a touch of forebodingAnd the machine grows parasitic
Who's gonna criticize the good criticEverybody loves...Everybody has the perfect solution
It's just hard to resist the sweet seduction
There ain't no trick to winning double what you bet
Welcome to revolution rouletteEverybody loves...

Poets of the Fall is a rock band formed in 2003 in Helsinki, Finland composed of singer Marko Saaresto ("Mark"), guitarist Olli Tukiainen ("Ollie") and keyboardist Markus Kaarlonen ("Captain"). They gained their first fame by recording the title theme of Max Payne 2, Late Goodbye. In June 2004 it was later released as a single and followed by Lift in September, which turned out to be a big hit. Their first album, Signs of Life was released in January 2005 and immediately went to number one on the Finnish Top40 list and remained on the chart for over a year. Their sophomore record Carnival of Rust was released in April 2006, preceded by a title track single, Carnival of Rust in March and providing another hit. The next singles were Sorry Go 'Round and Locking Up the Sun. Both albums have reached platinum status in Finland.

The name, Poets of the Fall, comes from the idea that two opposites form a whole, ie. there isn't one without the other. "Poets" here represent the positive side and "the Fall" the negative. Of course, when you join these two concepts, the "Poets" starts to sound just a tad mischievious as well... depends, of course, on how you perceive "the Fall". You might see it as a beautiful crisp season and the "Poets" are its insightful architects...

Among many others, the trio has received the following awards:

* Best Finnish Act at MTV Europe Music Awards 2006
* Best Finnish Music Video of all time in TV2's Musiikki-TV; two bronze Muuvi Awards and Best Music Video of 2006 at The Voice (video Carnival of Rust)
* Two Emma Awards (the Finnish Grammys) in 2005 - the best debut album and the best new act
* Best Finnish band at the NRJ Radio Awards 2006
* Commercial Radio Stations' Newcomer of the Year Award in 2005
