Poets of the Fall - War (Official Video w/ Lyrics) 

"It's not a lake, it's an ocean." Happy 10th Anniversary Alan Wake.

“This story will eat you alive, this story...is a monster”- Alan Wake

"IT'S NOT A LAKE, IT'S AN OCEAN" "IT'S NOT A LOOP, IT'S A SPIRAL"

Just played the game for the first time. The timing of the sequel couldn’t be more impeccable

Why aren't these guys more recognized? Every song they make is a damn masterpiece.

People praise The Last of Us for introducing a new level of storytelling in videogames, i think Alan Wake could very well deserve that honor too.

One of the best soundtracks ever made for a game. When the song plays on the radio while you fight in the barn, as a motivation from a lone radio host , knowing you are out there and fighting for your love... just breathtaking stuff.

After Alan Wake 2, this song became a lot more meaningful.

This song helped me and my sister when she was beating Stage 4 cancer. And survived.

Man, look at Ilkka Villi. Look how young he was. That was the music that introduced me to the band and I can't stop hear it ever since

2020 still , never forgot about this masterpiece

Moment of silence for all the people who fought in the barn but didn't turn on the radio. RIP

Those who didn't play Alan Wake, will never understand the true beauty and story of this video

Lots of people are talking about how Alan Wake led them to this song, and thus to the band. For me, it was the reverse. Poets of the Fall led me to Alan Wake.

4:28 just makes me cry. It's THE scene, Alan protecting Alice (his lost love, his main objective) from the hostile incarnations. Not only this game is impossible to forget, like a slice of live you really lived an left at the end (but remaining as a vivid memory of real encounters with real people), but the music is truly telling the deep feelings of the character we play, or must I say "conduct" through this common journey at Bright Falls. Praise this masterpiece !

Rest easy Alan. *The Director is coming for you...* Edit: OCTOBER 27TH!! I AM SO FUCKING READY!!!

"It's not a lake. It's an ocean"

They have announced the remastered version and I couldn't be happier. I missed you Alan Wake!

Here I am, crying on 26th of August, because tomorrow, a decade later, Alan Wake's story will finally continue. We made it, guys. All the wait wasn't for nothing

Anyone in 2024???

The last scene of this video truly represents the phrase, "It's not a loop, it's a spiral."

"My name is Alan Wake. Im a writer." /goose bumps goes on/

Still hitting me right in the feels in 2023 💔

Lyrics: Do you remember standing on a broken field White crippled wings beating the sky The harbingers of war with their nature revealed And our chances flowing by If I can let the memory heal I will remember you with me on that field When I thought that I fought this war alone You were there by my side on the front-line When I thought that I fought without a cause You gave me a reason to try Turn the page I need to see something new For now my innocence is torn We cannot linger on this stunted view Like rabid dogs of war I will let the memory heal I will remember you with me on that field When I thought that I fought this war alone You were there by my side on the front-line And we fought to believe the impossible When I thought that I fought this war alone We were one with our destinies entwined When I thought that I fought without a cause You gave me the reason why With no-one wearing their real face It's a whiteout of emotion And I've only got my brittle bones to break the fall When the love in letters fade It's like moving in slow motion And we're already too late if we arrive at all And then we're caught up in the arms race An involuntary addiction And we're shedding every value our mothers taught So will you please show me your real face Draw the line in the horizon Cos I only need your name to call the reasons why I fought When I thought that I fought this war alone...

Alan 13 years later : "It's not a loop, it's a spiral"

I bought Alan Wake day 1 and there was two things I wasn’t prepared for. 1.) How amazing the game would be. 2.) The fact that it would introduce me to one of my Top 3 favorite bands. There is a very special place in my heart for Alan Wake, and a large part of that is because it introduced me to this amazing band!

The lyrics from the chorus have a whole new meaning after playing Alan Wake 2.

One of the most underrated games of all time, along with Metro 2033 !

I love that shot with the flare with all the taken around Alan and his wife. Great stuff.

After seeing Alice helping alan in the dark place this song now is more emotional 😢💔

Its not a sequel, its a trilogy.

Alan Wake brought me here and now I love this band XD

Please, Remedy, HE'S STILL IN THE DARK PLACE! ALL THOSE YEARS! LET HIM BREAK FREE!!!!

Honestly half of what made Alan Wake a masterpice was the music of Poets of the Fall. I am still living in those memorys, hope everyone who expiricend it back then is well now!

Just went through "Alan Wake" (yeah, I'm pretty late with this). Heard this song on the radio while fighting the taken... What a dramatical moment! That thought might be getting old, but the storytelling is breathtaking there! I want to go through this stage fight with "Children of the elder god" playing again to see this supposedly horror game goes ridiculous with this raging hurricane of action! To listen to "The poet and the muse" again to see the mystery unfolds in front of the characters on their quest! And I want to fight the taken while listening to "War" so I can feel the desperation and recklessness of the character that's going to get through no matter the odds! It's some perfect harmony happening there! So thanks a lot to the band for these songs! Actually, I've been listening to the band for a while, so it's not the game that led me to it, but these songs are new to me and they will definitely play in my head for a few days! By the way, had no idea Poets of the fall can do that kind of powerful heavy-metal!

Remedy knows How to make you feel dark, delusional, desperate, foggy about your life with their gaming atmospher.

Poets of the Fall, now.... in Night Springs!!

This game is still a masterpiece, and I have dreams about it even 11 years later. Poets of the Fall are fantastic and I'm so glad I discovered them through Alan Wake

Back here because Alan Wake 2 is out today! round of applause for everyone who dreamed of this day!👏 Also Fingers crossed there's another awesome Poets of the Fall song in it somewhere.🤞

When I heard this playing on one of the radios in Alan Wake, I put down my controller, and cranked my TV's volume. Sooooo good!!!

So much life and pain has passed since the first time I heard this song and I cried hearing it again

Hearing this on the radio while you fight a horde of takens on that garage must be one of the most epical moments in any game

I remember playing Alan Wake as a teenager and...Poets Of The Fall, Poe, David Bowie all in the one soundtrack - those three bands alone, no matter how well the game has held up or not, make the Alan Wake soundtrack the best video game soundtrack in history.

I really just want 1 more Alan Wake game...

This song relieves pain during these difficult times.

Best song in a videogame love remedy RIP James McCaffrey Max Payne will never be the same so sad

Remedy + Poets of the Fall = Epic experience.

this is one of the most beautiful song i ever heard and after 7 years, I still love it

I'm here because they announced Alan Wake 2 at The Games Award! I'm so excited to play that game!

welcome to all the new kids that are going to be present to this masterpiece because of alan wake remastered :D good to have u here finally

Alan Wake's universe is awesome. I can't describe how much i miss this game! We need this kind of passion in creating gamings

Alan Wake. More than just a video game, and Poets of the Fall are always there.

Seeing live-action Alan Wake is so cool! This song and music video are masterpieces!

First played this a decade ago. One of the best games I've played.

Just played through Alan Wake again. Who else has played it in 2019?

POTF is too underrated, they are the best.

It's not a loop, it's a spiral.

Yes, 11 years after, I'm back because of they just announced Alan Wake Remastered. I really love your music guys, I started to listening to you thank you to this game.

When I first heard this song on the radio in Alan Wake I had to stop and listen to the whole thing

Who is here for the remastered version, I cant wait one week ladies and gentlemen

The most epic moment: turn the radio on and kick darkness in the ass with a flashlight and flares.

"... i will remember you with me on that field." Oh my... The shivers are real.

Great to have you back Alan once again, there's hope after all.

И вот я вновь здесь, после 13 лет ожидания второй части, которая наконец вышла. После стольких лет? Всегда!

2:47 Best part of the song, this guitar riff send a shiver through my veins, it's amazing. 1:49 Love this part of the clip, the sequence of cuts syncing with the beat, just awesome.

I'm so happy for the return of Alan wake in the sequel man, it has been a full decade since I played i'm crying so hard 😭 truly a masterpiece...

If the rumours of a remake are true. I can’t wait to blast this song in the game again. Edit: ITS TRUE!!!!

i just realized this song fits more with alan wake 2 . she was fighting by his side but he didnt know .. wow mindblown rn

Alan Wake's music is magical, timeless and so beautiful! His Old Gods of Asgard Poet and the Muse is one of my favorites!!

Remember Alan, its not a loop, its a spiral

I was playing Alan Wake and this song was on a radio , I just stood there and listened all the track

Just waiting on the lord to bless us with Alan Wake 2 and another masterpiece soundtrack.

Thanks to Alan Wake I could know of this amazing band !!! REALLY appreciated !!!

Just finished playing the first game for the very first time yesterday and this song is stuck in my head. Such a great game! I can't wait to play the sequel.

Я очень вас сильно люблю! У вас нет перевеса в музыке или вокале, всё настолько гармонично, что каждый раз вызывает желание подпевать. Спасибо вам)

When I thought that I fought this war alone You were there by my side on the frontline the amount of people in my life that these lyrics apply to is insane. friends and family are enough to get you through this hell we call Life. keep pushing and never give up ♥

Even after all these years I still love their songs.

Welcome back Alan! We missed you! 🤘

Finally getting a new Alan Wake, I've waited more than a decade for this! Live on Wake

Not sure if I want Half Life 3 or Alan Wake 2. I feel torn apart.

Only just played Alan Wake this past month (Control pointed me in that direction), and I can't believe I missed that gem of a game! It was so damn good

I'm here because of Alan Wake's 10th anniversary.

Really the help of Alice prove that Alan is not alone in this fight, it concret in Alan Wake 2

2021 and I'm still waiting for a sequel to this game.

I have said it many times to myself and others and I'll say it again. Alan Wake is possibly one of the best games I played, not only on the Xbox 360 but overall in my life time of playing games. I've played masterpieces such as Shenmue and The Last of Us, but this game's ideas were executed so well and so creatively. The atmosphere and graphics really immersed you into this dream world where you piece together the story, you as the writer making your own destiny. I found it really entertaining and enthralling that when I got to the end I wanted more, and I still want more now. Remedy are apparently in talks about a sequel and I really hope it happens! If Naughty Dog can do TLOUS2 then Remedy should have no problem making an awesome sequel to Alan Wake, the ending left too many unanswered questions....

that was actually the FIRST song of Poets of the Fall I heard... and yes, while playing first Alan Wake - I just stopped to listen to this song whole in a radio... It really HIT HARD first time I've heard it

I needed one more listen before Alan Wake 2 in a few hours.

Coming here for the announce of the Remake, it's good to feel home again.

Don't mind me, just hyping myself up for Alan Wake 2

Anyone who gets the chance to see them live TAKE IT! You will have no regrets! Marko´s voice is even more amazing live & the dynamic between the band is awesome! A must see!!!!

Keep figthing, Mr Wake we are with you figthing by your side.

How time flies! 12 years have passed since this Masterpiece has been released, God bless POTF, Big fan from Egypt

Absolutely hyped for PotF coming back for the sequel

I hear this song and every time tears come to my eyes. I'm waiting for the same masterpiece in the second part of Alan Wake!❤

GIVE US ALAN WAKE 2!!!!! WE'VE BEEN WAITING FOR 11 YEARS!

Old School Memories keep bringing you back those Shining Nights & Dark days .

Welcome back Mr.Wake, my old friend

Alan Wake one of the best games i play

Still such a great song in 2022! ❤❤

I get so emotional when I listen to this. I miss Alan Wake
