Father & Son React | Atlantic - Sleep Token | This may be my favorite so far!!!

[@nukewaste]

The line, "Merry in the morning/ earn your bitter fodder/ it's easier to try not to eat." That's something anyone who suffers with depression will understand. Get up, put a smile on your face! Go on, live that life you hate, earn that money, get that food, pay those bills, and do it all over again, forever, isn't that the best?! With a life so bitter, not really living but just existing, subsisting, like cattle on fodder, it would be easier to just give up, not eat, not work, not live. But, tomorrow rolls around. Merry in the morning. Earn your bitter fodder. ...It's easier to try not to eat.

[@childrenofsleep]

So this is straight up a song about a su1c1de attempt, I'm not sure but I think blue light over murder means he wasn't able to k himself and the bluelight refers to the ambulance arriving, since in the UK ambulances have blue lights, and it obviously makes an allusion to being underwater, cause in the second verse he wakes up at the hospital with the doctors watching him and telling him about the damage, the consequences and the pain they know they don't understand. Quite a heavy song, and one of my favs tbh. One more thing, in the visualizers, pay attention to how deep you'll get throughout the album, each song has a deepness level

[@bonniebennett6866]

Yessssssss

[@heidipatton5858]

This. It's a song about self -harm and an attempt at unaliving oneself. If it's something you've every experienced...this song tears you to pieces...because you can completely understand and feel what Vessel is saying. This is one of my favorite songs of theirs...and it always brings me to tears.

[@thomasandrewhitchen273]

In addition to this comment, which is 100% correct, all the underwater stuff is setting up the lyrical theme of the album. All three ST album start with an introduction track that lets us know where we are in the story before the narrative begins proper with track two. So this song also serves to let the audience know what is coming up, a sad story wrapped in metaphors of the deep sea.

[@miss__anthropy]

So if you remember the end of the album version of Blood Sport, it ends with him crying. The albums are supposed to be a trilogy, so it goes immediately from him being completely broken and crying to waking up in the hospital after his attempt to remove himself from the census, although some people think the Event in this song was a car accident that led to his partner losing a baby ("crumble like a temple built from future daughters," and there's a line in High Water that will punch you in the gut). I kind of lean toward the latter because of all the references to car accidents in their songs. People also reference the scars Vessel actually has on his arm, and this is where I'm gonna go hardcore geek mode: I've worked in the medical field, and I've taken classes on forensics. The scars on Vessel's arm (the "trenches") are not from self harm. He may have those scars elsewhere, but the three lines on his left forearm are from some sort of accident. Self harm scars cause raised tissue, and the scars on Vessel's arm are really deep and sunken, indicating something took some serious chunks out of his arm. The location of the scars (left forearm near the elbow) is also in an area that is well known for taking impact during accidents-people put their arms up in front of them to brace for impact, and that spot is usually where a lot of blunt force trauma injuries occur during accidents. As for the line "flood me like Atlantic, bandage up the trenches, anything to get me to sleep": if you've ever been hooked up to an IV, when you're first hooked up and the medicine starts flowing, it literally feels like your body is being flooded. I think he's talking about them bandaging his wounds and giving him pain medication, and how he just wants to go to sleep and forget everything that's happened. Then when that big switch-up hits, that's when the pain meds hit. It really does feel like that (I'm not a junkie, but I've had gallstones and I've been given dilaudid and that shit hits HARD 🤣). AND when the guitars are playing, the synths in the background sound like whale songs too. This song (this whole album, really) has SO MANY LAYERS. I sort of see this album like a play. Atlantic is starting off at the end of the story, where he wakes up in the hospital, surrounded by family members and feeling like absolute shit about himself. They give him the drugs ("flood me like Atlantic") and he starts to hallucinate (the big switch-up), then he falls asleep (the very end of the song), and he's dreaming about everything that led up to the accident ("don't wake me up" is the final moment of him drifting off to sleep to start dreaming about it all). The next song starts off at the beginning of the story of how he ended up in that hospital bed. And this shit tracks throughout the album! I will be annoying you with more long-ass comments as you continue down the journey! But just wait until you get to Fall For Me. It's going to fucking break you. Promise. ;)

[@davidross7412]

I never thought about this song like that. But after reading your comment it makes waaaaaay too much sense for it not to be true. Somehow this already tragic song is even sadder than initially imagined. Literally have tears in my eyes just thinking about it. But also Brb gonna go listen to this song 100 more times 😂

[@miss__anthropy]

@@davidross7412 The miscarriage theory also tracks with a line from High Water... I won't spoil it for the guys, but the line following "I know you still bear the weight of your own existence" hits WAY harder when you consider a miscarriage. SPOILERS FOR THE REST OF THE ALBUM AHEAD, DON'T READ DUDES, THIS IS FOR @davidross7412: My theory is that this album can sort of exist on its own without the other two. Atlantic starts off at the end, then he falls asleep and retells the story of what happened. High Water is where the emotional climax of the album hits (probably the accident, and my theory is that the car went into water somewhere), and then Missing Limbs is immediately after the accident, submerged in the water, accepting his fate... then the sounds at the end of the song are the ambulance arriving and pulling the car out of the water. I know people say the end of Missing Limbs fades into the beginning of Chokehold (and it does), BUT if you play TPWBYT on a loop, it goes seamlessly from him sinking to the bottom, then being pulled out (and the visualizer even looks like something entering the water during the static), and immediately looping back into Atlantic where he's waking up in the hospital. It's like a never-ending loop that he's stuck in, but then in Chokehold he acknowledges he's trapped and he starts to break out of he cycle in TMBTE. *Removes tinfoil hat* I swear I only get this crazy about Sleep Token, not any other band 🤣

[@carriefish]

"Merry in the morning, earn your bitter fodder, it's easier to try not to eat." Vessel is saying “Wake up happy in the morning to earn a life you don’t deserve/want” Then he goes on saying “It’s easier to try not to eat” which can be interpreted that it’s easier to give up on life than swallow your own bitter existence.

Look at this: In Sundowning we got Blood Sport. Now we have atlantic where he sings: wash away the blood on my hands. And in Take me Back to Eden we can listen to Rain where he wrote the line: "... And wash out the salt from my hand" So, he got his hands dirty with blood at some point in the end of blood sport, then atlantic ocean washed away the blood with salt water, after all the rain washes the salt water on his hands.

[@anthonylewandowski6410]

Well, I never thought of that. That's really great! Never made the connection. I always thought Patient (from a band of his that shall not be named) Atlantic and Granite went together to tell a tale of a car crash that changed him. But this is a great take as well!

But, yeah there's a connection on this too, but i Dont look at It as an accident, i think he attempted to $u1c1d3 throwing his car into water with him inside, and thats why he got bloody handed and It changed his life, but thats My interpretation. And take Care, Dont spoil about his older project. Worship 🙏🏻

[@almizzyracing8004]

The song is about a self-deletion attempt. The eyes surrounding him in the hospital bed after waking up from a failed attempt, talking him through the damage and consequence of it while simultaneously not understanding his pain that drove him to that point, and he wants to be flooded (cleansed) of this terrible event by washing the blood from his hands. If you look at pictures of Vessel performing live, you'll notice scars on his arm.

[@B8Lola]

II ate, his drumming is fantastic. Atlantic live was special.

[@pagansjudgment]

Yea the other comments nailed it- I've always interpreted this as reflection on a suicide attempt. 'Blue lights over murder' = ambulance instead of the morgue, 'talk me through the damage, consequence and how it's a pain they know they don't understand' = the Dr's and nurses giving their weak attempt at therapy. Something I have experience with slightly, though I didn't make it to the hospital, luckily. Friends intervened. Love yalls content!!

[@ryanfrazier3781]

Love the reactions, glad to see you're still going. This first song hits real hard. I'm pretty sure this song is about a suicide attempt. First couple verses are about hitting rock bottom and trying to commit suicide but it's not successful (ambulances in the UK have blue lights, so blue lights over murder can be interpreted as getting rushed to the hospital instead of killing himself). The 3rd and 4th verse is him waking up in the hospital, which hits me real hard as I had that exact experience after a car accident. You're in for a ride on this album.

[@ShannonJohnson-gj8yw]

If it was a attempt to unalive himself why would he say blue light over murder? There was a car accident and a loss of life. Him and her both survived. At a later point there was an attempt by her but not vessel. Look at the album art for are you really ok. You will see a baby in the womb.

I’ve always taken this song as a sui**de attempt, following blood sport. After blood sport he tried to take himself out. Blue light over mur**r, ambulances in the UK have blue lights. Bandage up the trenches, means bandage up the cuts. He wakes up in the hospital bed surrounded by his family.. but they know they can’t understand his pain.

[@americanvikingr7726]

See I am from the USA so it's red or amber and white lights. I took it as vessel seeing sleep taking others (like how he felt in drag me under) and begs sleep to take him instead of the others. Letting himself be the sacrifice and feel that pain so others didn't. Which might tie into the self harm aspect of the song That is my take on it. But I like the double of moonlight through water and ambulance lights to connect em

[@mikebarnes9922]

Tomb is a banger, all the way through. Great stuff as always gentlemen. And still...the snare.....

[@americanvikingr7726]

So Vessel's dream was of the ocean as far as he could see. While he couldn't see sleep, he could see the lack of her presence and felt the cold heavy disturbing weight that she brings with her. So I believe he is saying he would give himself to the deep, rather than see others taken down the path hence "call me when they bury, bodies underwater it's blue light over murder for me" But I believe the rest of the song is about his actual reality of self harm and its effects on himself and others

I think of Vessel's lyrics as Bible verses. Couplets. True poetry. Just for the love of words. He's drowning in his addictions. And he prefers it. Suicide. Trenches in his arms. Getting in the tub to die. Woke up in a hospital bed. Surrounded by doctors or family.

[@andrewpeach8385]

I believe ‘flood me like Atlantic’ probably refers to having an IV drip post-s attempt in the hospital, flooding his system with essentials after his attempt. And bandaging up the trenches to me sounds like literally bandaging up his self inflicted wounds, ‘trenches’ to me implies deeeeep cuts, serious shit. And yeah the eyes like frozen planets always hits me deep with imagery, laying on the hospital bed, there physically but mentally totally void, the external orbs on the outside of the vacuum and emptiness inside. Absolute literal deep cut track. *additionally, Atlantic is a lost and abandoned city, given he feels like a void and vacuum, empty, that further adds to the pure despair he felt in those moments

Alr so when I looked up the lyrics blue light over muder seems to have many meanings some of them Blue light” in the context of this song’s ocean metaphor could refer to looking up and seeing the light refract through the surface of the water. This could be a symbol of drowning, i.e. “bury bodies underwater.” However, in the context that the second verse provides, “blue light” could refer to an ambulance (which have blue lights in the UK). In this sense, the “murder for me” could resemble a suicide attempt If one agrees with the blue lights being from an ambulance after a suicide attempt, “murder” might hint at a catholic background where suicide is a sin and one would be denied entry into paradise This is from genius but the second on makes sense with the song's meaning Also “anything to get me to sleep” sounds like he wanted to die and would do anything like drown himself or od

"It's Blue Light" references the lights (blue) on UK Ambulances (assume he is being rushed to a hospital from an injury) "Crumble like a temple built from future daughters" I always had imagery of future kids building a sandcastle and it getting washed away. Someone else referenced a song from a previous band. "Merry in the morning, earn your bitter fodder" Think you guys are on with this one, waking up happy but going through the motions just to realize you're not happy at the end of the day. Easier not to eat meaning it might be easier not to live "Flood me like Atlantic bandage up the trenches" Think of the trenches as deep cuts and literally bandaging up "Wash away the blood from my hands" Someone else got this, his hands got bloody in Blood Sport, trying to wash them clean (remove himself) just to find out that's not what he wants, and then wash out the salt from my hands in Rain (help me move on from what I've done) "I woke up surrounded, eyes like frozen planets" He woke up in the hospital bed confused with his loved ones starring at him in disbelief not knowing what to do "Just Orbiting the vacuum, I am" Assuming this references shame one would feel after a failed attempt, the vacuum reference also maybe touching on how people claim a certain action is a selfish act. "They talk me through the damage, consequence" Doctors and family literally talking him through what he did to himself and the consequences of his actions but how they understand they do not know how he is feeling. "Sobbing as they turn to statues at the bedside" Him realizing how his actions have hurt his loved ones, a feeling of shame he starts crying and his loved ones just freeze or turn into statues as they don't know what to do. Unfortunately, with the depth in these lyrics it's hard to believe these were written by not actually going through all of this. Always amazing reactions and breakdown from you guys!

People say this is about a self-deletion attempt, but I'm of the camp that thinks it's more than that. A lot of us also think there was a car accident of some sort that ended up with their car in the water (think British roads on the cliff sides next to the ocean). I also think there's even more to this in that they lost a child during the accident - "crumble like a temple built from future daughters." Makes sense to me why there'd be a self-deletion attempt after that.

[@darcystcorner2580]

Blue light over murder means he’d rather kill himself than kill her. Flood me like Atlantic, bandage up the trenches- give me the drugs and fix up my self harm. He just wants to sleep. He has very large scars on his arm, hence trenches. Crushing to sand means he’s trying to hold it together so they don’t section him( send him to a mental hospital). I will tell you that future daughter comes from the previous band. He says he’s waiting on a future promised and that she the favorite daughter, so he is most definitely talking about her. Like I’ve been saying it’s all about her, old and new bands tied together through lyrics. This is my favorite album, it’s the realization album and an emotional roller coaster. Buckle in boys

Interesting you say that. My girl friend thinks the line about 'dripping crimson on the carpet' in Are You Really Okay refers to a miscarriage. Although, I do think Atlantic refers to his own or someone else's suicide attempt. You can see scars from deep lacerations to his left arm. Maybe hence the black paint, and the mask 'for protection' of his vulnerability. Unless, of course, you know/knew the members of BLC personally, which is respectfully non of my beeswax, of course 😊
