YOUR TROUBLES WILL CEASE AND FORTUNE WILL SMILE UPON YOU // LYRICS
When I return
I dream of another life
Failure transparent in the palm of my hand
I am the contortionist
We are the contortionists
I can feel this distance is further and farther without you
Contorting to fit somewhere I do not belong
Brick by brick
Stone on top of stone
I create
From these towers
Built of nothingness
I will fall
And like these wordless feelings
There is an emptiness we long to feel inside
Father when will you come home?
I have been dying inside
Mother where have you gone?
Oh so how hard I've been trying
Hours upon hours
I am fucking sleepless
We are wretched, no sleep for the wicked
And at night we come undone
This is not who I ever was
We are anything
We are the contortionist
We are the wordless feelings
We are the great divide
We are the emptiness we long to feel inside
We are anything
We are the contortionist

Justin... I hope your troubles have ceased and happiness is smiling upon you. Shred in peace, brother.

[@ryanjohnson2614]

My thoughts exactly

[@Netsuj151]

FUCK I just came here to listen to this again and as soon as I read your comment I just started crying out of nowhere. I wasn't even in a somber mood but this just hit real hard rn.

[@ashtonstaples2996]

@@Netsuj151 reading the lyrics of Neo Seoul does that me too. Same with the intro riff

[@faytisseltion1020]

Kudo to you, look at you.... Respecting the Dead.. xD

[@mattmuffitt]

​@@Netsuj151it happens to the best of us brother

[@kknocks2378]

When I woke up in the hospital after a near death brain injury, I mouthed the sound of the intro riff from this song. RIP justin, you’re a legend. You’re music was so powerful, it might have kept my brain alive.

[@HarshitBujarBaruah]

Whoa!

[@zacharyvitto1306]

yeah whoa too !

[@BourgeBoo]

Hell yeah bro 🤘🏻I couldn’t help but laugh you sounding the riff out tho lmao docs were probably like fuck he’s brain dead 😂glad you’re still with us ✊🏻

[@mattmuffitt]

Grateful you were able to thrash through that situation

[@charlieday710]

Hes looking over you

"Brick by brick, stone on top of stone, I create from these towers built of nothingness; I will fall, and like these worthless feelings, there is an emptiness we long to feel inside."

[@zeon951]

"contorting to fit somewhere I do not belong" damn that hit close to the heart

[@jaysew1199]

It's 2022 and I still think that this track is one of the best to come out of 2010s djent/progressive core scene. Such a killer riff, song structure, and lyrics. In Dreams is one of the few records from that time that I still put on often, 10 years later. Might be a little biased as a Minnesotan though!

[@hashylarry8524]

Nah, I agree. This track and album are staples of the genre. The main riff in particular.... What a fuckin jam

[@kylemiller4999]

When I was a younger guitarist still stuck in open eight metalcore my senior and stronger guitarist showed me this song to break my aild obsession. This along with periphery 1 were monumental in changing my outlook on the fretboard now in my 30s I have a distinct nostalgia. I know in commenting in a graveyard which only adds to the feeling. I wish we could go back bros didn't know how good things really were

[@al145]

this album got slept on back in the day by me and my friends and idk why, i went back to it years later

[@InSamous70]

Wished Justin Lowe's troubles were ceased. RIP dude. =/

[@kevinscheurer4430]

I mean I guess they are now, but without him dying would've been better

[@mysterious.broadcast]

It's damn near impossible to sit still while listening to this song. That riff in the beginning forces you to bob your head.

[@shakamilian]

RIP Justin Lowe.

[@stigmurder99]

Here missing him on the date of "death'

[@lisaraye6000]

This band should be so recognized because they are really amazing live .. they were actually one of the best concerts I've seen live ever . And I've been to alot .the energy was amazing...

[@ericcotter1984]

i write very gut wrenching music and this band is one of those few that gets to me like Saetia and the Number Twelve they just hit different

[@al145]

i went into my first pit to them, although i don't remember what song it was. I didn't know them that well at the time. It was a LONG time ago though, so it was something from the early days

[@sahilvaidya5683]

The starting riff was meant to be stuck in my head

[@BlastBeatsFTW]

Small "Woo!" very quietly in the right speaker between 0:11-0:12 seconds

[@BlurredVisi0n]

"We ARE the emptiness we long to feel inside" damn that gives me chills

[@newspaperlightbulb]

This drummer is absolutely inhuman.

[@responsesMTL]

+Alex Menendez He's..... Superior (͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

[@araccardi]

Ya no

[@jgardner925]

As a drummer myself it's a trip watching him live since he's one of the few drummers I know that keeps time with his left hand and has his toms reversed compared to right handed people.

[@datmane5921]

@@jgardner925 he’s a lefty silly

[@joaoralve]

@@datmane5921 LOL

[@MrSuphyxiated]

I hear a ever so soft "woo" at the offbeat of 0:11

[@swaglord420yolo2]

***** Fingers sliding up/down the strings in between notes.

[@awesomeness55]

SwAgLoRd420 YOLO Nah, definitely a "woo."

[@jwildman95bamf]

Thats what i love about progressive bands like this and volumes. The rythem guitar, bass and drums are chugging along with the beat when another guitar comes in and takes the whole thing to a new level of awsomeness

[@lbaddict69]

This band seriously needs a bigger fan base.

[@traviswhite9586]

Taime Lamb for real! they gained another fan in me a couple months ago! \m/

[@likikita72]

Today they're a very massive band

[@ericcotter1984]

no pls leave it small like Katatonia's

[@AmpcatProductions]

i used to not like metalcore/deathcore/djent so much until i heard this song. justin's one lead during the chorus just stuck in my head, now it haunts me

[@jayvermilyea5799]

So much emotion in that simple lead 😥 R.I.P Justin

[@IsaacGowan]

So good live! Heard this live with Trivium and Devildriver, one hell of a show!

[@captainchaos6812]

Sounds like a good fuckin show man

[@FoxoDile]

Just got a fortune cookie that said, "Your troubles will cease, and good fortune will smile upon you." Had to come back to this gem!

[@maryglover2981]

This music speaks to me in ways that only the others that get it will understand

[@pivit7816]

This is probably the only song I've ever listened to and gotten absolutely Nothing but a turn around in my thought process looking at my life. this song helps me step back up to the plate and focus. thank u guys

[@-orlandogx-]

This band deserves to be huge

[@brayant152h]

i could listen to this song forever. it would never get old

[@badash1738]

This song is LEGENDARY!

[@clayman478]

Love the energy and feeling I get from this song. These guys make great music.

[@LuisaR20090]

RIP Justin, your riffs will never be forgotten

[@kirillbarr]

this song started my love for this band

[@migpolli04]

Remember when I first heard this one! Was so stoked the title was about a movie I loved. Check out Stay (2005)

[@xpndblhero5170]

"Your troubles will cease and fortune will smile upon you"... I got this on a fortune cookie once. 😉

[@danieljohnston3290]

Saw these guys 2018 and Justin Lowe will always be missed. But these guys still sound amazing live and the band hungout w/ the crowd and were so nice and they stole the show, he would be so happy... Rest in Peace.

Sam Hardy you mean "peace"

[@Grumlyloursfoufou]

Breszko he definitely means "peace"

[@Breszko]

Grumlyloursfoufou I know, just wanted to say that means something different. But it's absolutely not important this time. It's so sad, I'm still shocked.. Rest in peace Justin.

[@samhardy2340]

Fuck, how did I miss that? Damn, well yeah I meant in peace. Still man, condolences to ATB and his family.

[@MrSmr2010]

His highs are amazing!!!

[@Sleesball1]

I like these old tones over the new recordings. The new ones may be clean but this has the grit that you want to hear from this style.

[@aec300]

This is such a dope song very Meshuggah like :)

[@cirepohsibly1084]

I disagree, with the meshuggah likeness, not that it is dope. It is tres dope.

[@MissMarina0405]

Cire Pohsibly how can you honestly say that? atb is considered to play "djent" a style INVENTED by meshuggah learn your metal

[@revwestcott]

Shane Marez Playing Djent does not automatically mean that they sound anything like Meshuggah. Animals as Leaders, Volumes, Veil of Maya, and Periphery are all also considered Djent bands and none of them sound similar to one another and certainly not similar to Meshuggah. They have some similarities that allow them to be grouped into the genre of Djent, sure, but their styles are still very different and varied.

[@MissMarina0405]

listen to the bass guitar specifically then honestly says that again

[@revwestcott]

I'm a musician. Again that's similar, but not exactly in the same style as Meshugah. Also, pointing to one specific section of the song doesn't make the entirety of it in the same style

[@derickturner7028]

being in the navy is very stressful, sometimes to the point that i want to curbstomp some of the people i have to be around everyday. luckily there's talented musicians out there that bust their asses everyday to write good music like this that keeps my stress at bay and helps me not to do that. thank you after the burial, you kept my shoes clean another day

[@rlenn6512]

You got that right. Listen to this shit when they call sweepers. Semper Fortis

[@iloveheroin4975]

This is where my agression goes to bub.

[@igor.meh.design]

so.. this is why after the burial is one of my favorites bands evah.

[@dosbox907]

man, we never get good bands where I live in alaska. any time a big band comes up they either cancel, or are playing in massive arenas that take away from the experience... but we had the once in a life time opportunity to see ATB live in my home state, and in a tight venue at a bar. I had to drive 200 miles to get to anchorage, and since I work graveyards on the weekends I had to call in late, but it was so fucking worth it. they brought down the damn building, this was the song at about the 2:55 mark where in the middle of the chaos, I paused, sort of glanced around and teared up for a moment. I had an epiphany, I've just never seen a crowd, and a band with so much energy, not one solid body in the building, everyone synchronized to the breakdown. that moment, it was so fuckin majestic I couldnt hold myself back emotionally. Idk what it was. the comradery, the song, the fact that I was there watching the band that helped form my musical tastes coming up.. probably all of it! it was enough to drive me to cry like a fuckin baby. I did my first stage dive, surfed the crowd screaming the lyrics to lost in the static, i got a black eye from the an elbow of longest haired ginger kid with a slipknot shirt I've ever seen, I watched my girlfriend get hit on by thirsty bros, I battled and tore people for the front of the stage, they did the same. I knocked people down in the pit, I pulled people up, I got trampled, they pulled me up. my whole body was in pain for weeks and the drive back down to my hometown is well known for taking lives in night, and I was 3 hours late to work, with that said, everything I experienced there that night, the joy, the stress, the anger all come together in a memory I will cherish forever. I shook hands with trent, got a picture with him as they were packing up, told him he was my hero, and he said 'we'll be back next time'. I hope its true man, that night was worth dying for, if i had a chance to relive it.. i wouldnt trade it for all the hookers and black jack in vegas.

[@maximumcarnage186]

minusmodest Thats awesome. I like reading and hearing stories.

[@MrAbner09]

This song just picked me up from a very dark place, made me cry but somehow I feel refreshed

[@slimebuck]

Sean Jones his car was 10km away from his body. your telling me he walked 10km to jump? also it isn't OFFICIAL that he killed himself. Way to go jumping to conclusions before its official. You know as much as bill clemmins. You dont know if he was or wasent murdered dude

[@BlurredVisi0n]

+Slime Bucket honestly dude, sadly, if I was in that state of mind I could totally see myself going for a VERY long walk before jumping

[@doctorknockers6969]
