Falling for every lie Survivors’ guilt In us forevermore 15 candles Redeemers of this world Dwell in hypocrisy: “How were we supposed to know?” 4 pink ones 9 blue ones 2 black ones In memory of the Redeemers 20.4.1999 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nightwish On June 9, 2017, the band announced that March 9, 2018 would mark both the debut of a nine-month world tour titled Decades: World Tour, to conclude in December, and the release of a new compilation album, titled Decades.
