I absolutely love this song, but the lyrics, for me, always make me think of childhood narcissistic abuse. How you crave that unconditional love, and just when you think you can trust it, it turns on you. Makes you hate yourself and think you’re the problem. But even then, you can’t help but crave it. 🫤 The part at the end hits especially hard - “Just want to be worth it / I will run like the wind 'til you follow me again” - all you want is to feel worthy of the love you deserve, and no matter how far you run, or how much you go no-contact, that kind of abuse follows you your whole life. So you’re constantly cycling through moments of clarity and moments of cptsd. 😮💨
I’m sure you’d get a ton out of The Way That You Were by Sleep Token. A less popular song but one of the more mental health focused songs in a less round a bout way as well
I was just going to ask what insurance you take, but I see I'm not the only one. Lol I've been looking for the right therapist for me for so, so many years. Nothing seems right. I've got so much I've never spoken about. Nobody seems to fit. Music helps so much, and faith, and seeing you have both and no judgements against people...dang. I'd love to talk to you. I need to spill my guts. 😅
I don't know if this helps, but I've heard that the falsetto parts are supposed to be 'Sleep', the woman/eldrich god whom Vessel is singing to. The only song I've heard of that invokes her own words.
Sleep is male though. “This being once held great power, bestowing ancient civilisations with the gift of dreams, and the curse of nightmares. Even today, though faded from prominence, ‘Sleep’ yet lurks in the subconscious minds of man, woman, and child alike. Fragments of beauty, horror, anguish, pain, happiness, joy, anger, disgust, and fear coalesce to create expansive, emotionally textured music that simultaneously embodies the darkest, and the brightest abstract thoughts. He has seen them. He has felt them. He is everywhere.”
Yeeeees dear MORE sleep token! Would love to see your reactions to The night does not belong to god and Levitate. And generally their whole discography since it's a story/journey to behold!
This song is so underrated. One of my absolute faves, in my Top 5. So beautiful and brutal.
It’s in my top 5 also, I love take aim!
When I first heard it, it was one of the only songs I didn’t like. But when I listed to it more it’s definitely up there!
One of my top 5 songs. I have had this on repeat for hours on end. 😅 something about his voice and the feels.
I thoroughly enjoy your Sleep Token reactions. Keep them coming!
