About This Track

'451 Days' by Loathe is a metal track from the album 'I Let It in and It Took Everything' (2020). It takes the form of an interlude built around Nina Simone’s presence, with a conversational, back-and-forth exchange questioning what “free” means, and leaning into the idea that feelings can be hard to explain. The lyrics also shift towards love, asking how anyone can describe what it feels like to be in love. In the end, the emphasis stays on interpretation and uncertainty, not answers.

"451 Days" is a track by Loathe, from the album I Let It in and It Took Everything, released 7th February 2020. The track is 1:39 long. It's filed under Metal. Full lyrics are available below. Dork has published 4 articles about Loathe.

Lyrics

451 Days

[Interlude: Nina Simone]

Well, what's "free" to you, Nina?

What's "free" to me?

Yeah

Same thing it is to you, you tell me

No, you tell me

It's just a feeling

It's just a feeling

It's like, how do you tell somebody how it feels to be in love?

How are you going to tell anybody who has not been in love how it feels to be in love?

You cannot do it to save your life

You can describe things, but you can't tell 'em

But you know it when it happens

That's what I mean by "free"

I've had a couple of times onstage when I really felt free

And that's something else

That's really something else!

Like, all, all, like, like—

I'll tell you what freedom is to me, no fear

I mean, really, no fear

If I could have that half of my life, no fear

Lots of children have no fear

That's the closest way— the only way I can describe it

That's not all of it, but It is something to really, really feel
