Lyrics:
Veins die and I fantasize to find hurt another way
My baseline, I take time in the middle
The bile fills the leech, I hear them talking in their sleep
A vessel to the ether sea, the varicose encasing me
Why can’t they see the lights are synchronizing into the shadows underneath?
Why can’t they see the lights are synchronizing?
I feel them change velocities
Draw slow when you take from me, I need time
It’s just I can’t suffer honestly, the taste of chemicals keep me alive
I feel the pain through a surrogate, the brittle bones of a middle child
They call a state of emergency to get me back to my baseline
And it hurts a little, and I lie a little in my refuge
Veins die and I fantasize to find hurt another way
My baseline, I take time in the middle
There must be something more out there
There must be something more out there
So powerless in the cross hairs
There must be something more out there
Veins die and I fantasize to find hurt another way
My baseline, I take time in the middle
You said the pain was perennial, I need hurt another way
My baseline, I take time in the middle
Oh you make it hurt a little, and l lie a little
Oh you make it hurt a little in my refuge
You make it hurt a little, and l lie a little
Oh you make it hurt a little in my refuge
There must be something more out there
There must be something more out there

Holy Roller brought me here. I'm 2 years late to the party and I'm just glad I found this gem of a band. Remarkable!

[@davidswiggett8389]

I am right there with you. I have been playing them on repeat for the last week. OMG this is what music needs today.

[@Adrian_Igs]

@Darren Ayles Welcome ... Spiritbox is an EXCEPTIONAL band. Jeez ... I love Spiritbox.

[@Heath-vz7lc]

Glad to see a heap of new fans for this band they really do deserve the recognition they're getting currently

@@Heath-vz7lc it was a long time coming, i found them when blessed be kept popping up

[@AlexrooXell]

Whoever did the video needs a big round of applause. Stunning work.

[@lemniscatefortunecanfinall2707]

Dual gasms: Visual vid streamed @[2160p (4k)] and the entire track. OMFG!

[@ImRe4n1m4t3d]

Kyle Jay, dude has done most of their promo work. Not sure ab the vid though. It's glorious

[@VersaFilms]

Thanks man!

[@SpiritboxOfficial]

Dylan Hryciuk of Versa Films did this video and killed it! Kyle Joinson does our photos.

[@AlexrooXell]

Dylan, you made an awesome job

[@briancataldi]

Still my favorite Spiritbox song after all these years

[@JohnDoe-mv2be]

I always keep coming back to experience it and the gorgeous video

[@BSP1822]

Checking back after Fear of Fear to see if you still feel that way. I'm torn. I wish the Pale Chord stuff was still on streaming platforms.

[@Hxcdav]

Same bro

[@Rog1157]

Every once In awhile a band will come around with a sound and ambience that refreshes your outlook on music. Spiritbox has done that for me. They make me want to push to become a better musician. Keep making music please.

[@stseantmusic]

That's awesome man! I feel the exact same way.

[@haryguby5326]

Same for me man. I stopped playing guitar to learn drums for a few years and now I'm getting back into guitar. This time it just has more strings. 😎

[@Valkryst12]

Couldn't have said this any better.

[@MegaLotusEater]

No one cares, Justin

[@crfabrepair4938]

i felt this comment big time. as a song writer and performer, i hit a lot of blocks throughout writing and what not....after listening to a few of spiritbox songs, i felt like i had so much more to write and had tons of inspiration to keep writing.

[@TheBrandonn]

Sorry Eternal Blue but this song and EP will always be a massive bop. I know you have released now but I still need to make time to listen to this

[@jhamilton1007]

Both are phenomenal

[@audyhiggins3533]

My god. Imagine a full orchestra behind this.. Flawless guys

[@MathieuRouland]

wow, can't believe how creative and fresh this band can be in such a saturated scene. They just can't release anything bad and the video is stunning - so much work

[@petersummerlin7739]

Mathieu Rouland Courtney LaPlante was already a legend. Spiritbox is definitely a great move on her part.

[@emptycloud2774]

I agree. I believe they'll push the genre.

[@ecscottindiana]

super group

[@MathieuRouland]

@Bloviator Magnus check their latest songs you shouldn't be disappointed :) !

[@mikexxxmilly]

I know right. Every band sounds like fucking architects or northlane. It’s old

[@GaryEmmetteChandlerPlus]

I can't stop listening to this. "THERE MUST BE SOMETHING MORE OUT THERE."

[@_SaraZ]

That's what every Spiritbox fan screams after having consumed all of their songs.

[@zac1002]

I listen to all of Spiritbox's material, but this song is one I keep coming back to.

[@Sulucion6Tone]

the newer singles bleach b ath and rule of nines is Fucking Fire! - if you haven't checked in awhile, you need to!

just found them tonight, almost done listening to everything available. Incredible band!!

Just found them yesterday and binging everything they've ever made.

[@hotfishnchips90]

This song is one of the most amazing songs I’ve ever heard. Listen to it at least a few times a week. Vocals are insane and the ambiance to go along with it

[@79bluelco]

What blows my mind is mediocre songs have millions of views when spiritbox music is amazing and has under 100k 😞

[@olafbvd6094]

well that is a good point right there ... it's because this music is not for mediocre people ... :D

[@afterkwiss]

@@olafbvd6094 Spot on!

[@Zakear7]

[@Crack_the_Skye]

Sheeple

[@jeffarnold9497]

Courtney has such an amazing voice.

[@downriggermd]

Was she in I Wrestled A Bear Once for a hot second?

[@infinityfactorial]

She was. I miss that band but if IWABO won't be around anymore (and I think that's still an "if") I'm okay with Spiritbox being the next step.

[@AdamMcCann1178]

@@infinityfactorial definitely got some respect for IWABO, but I feel like this is a more serious, artistic direction. Like IWABO makes me wanna mosh, Spiritbox makes me want to learn to paint or photography.

[@infinityfactorial]

@@AdamMcCann1178 That makes perfect sense. Spiritbox absolutely comes off as a more artistic project with richly layered songs and a whole different purpose. IWABO was great at what they did (and yes, I saw them live once... moshing was not in short supply) but Spiritbox is breaking some ground right here. I never saw this many people blown away by what IWABO did at the time (awesome as it was) as I do now for this band. Spiritbox just makes music that could be the soundtrack for a very deep, intellectual film, and they are gaining this well-deserved following because of the way that they're bringing their sound together.

[@chulcat]

And she’s beautiful which is a plus. Like her style

[@cameronmeyer523]

Absolutely brutiful. This song is flawless.

[@soph7868]

As opposed to her Mara effect screaming vocals, not really.. But still a good song.

[@intheabyss2863]

i have no idea how many times ive played this song.

[@guillermoleonortiz6517]

Im in the same point right now

[@mikabass]

I think ive listened to this song 400 times already its great

[@brandensmith161]

Same here I bought the single and have been listening non stop its amazing.

[@richbutnotfamous1158]

I've been a metal head for over twenty years, how has it taken me this long to find these peeps. I need to raise my vocal game...

[@parish3281]

I watched this so many times, yet just now noticed the cut from 2:42 to 2:43 Usually what annoys me in some music videos is, when apparently there is still singing on the vocal track but the singer in the video doesn't move the lips in a scene transition. Well, not in this video. It's done so subtly here but that's why it's awesome! She just takes the high note from the scene before and goes on with it in the next one. I'm not the first to say it, but this video is stunning - scenery, editing and pace are just on point (just like the audio of course).

[@ObliviousInferno]

Thank you for the most specific compliment of my career! haha

[@RyanCogar]

@@ObliviousInferno Not sure if you'll see this my dude, but you for real killed it with this video & with all of your work with Spiritbox to date. In particular the wide shots of the scenery coming in at the 1:46 mark & the following section with that beautiful sun in the background get me every time.

[@ObliviousInferno]

@@RyanCogar Thank you so much for the kind words man. I'm happy you've enjoyed my work on the Spiritbox videos!

[@devingriffin3756]

I bounce back and forth from bands and genres constantly, depending on where I am in life or what I'm feeling. There are very few bands that I am 100% in love with at all times, and can trust to decompress or have the catharsis I'm looking for to. Spiritbox is my forever band. I'll never get tired of these Vocals, the Instrumentals, & the visuals. These Guys have found their own 11 herbs & spices.

[@PaulOuzounov]

These guys are the absolute real deal. Love every second of this and the rest of the material. Gorgeous video to boot. No false steps here.

[@SpiritboxOfficial]

[@k1ll5mil33]

Can't stop.... listening. It's been days no food or sleep Spiritbox is all I need.

Late as well. What a stunner.

[@jhamilton1007]

This song and album is so good. I really hope Spiritbox does more progressive metal songs like this. I feel like this part of their style really allows Courtney to experiment with the various aspects of her voice. So good.

[@benjaminhoff5004]

When they just play modern metalcore it takes away from her voice and they lose what makes them unique. By doing the whole djent thing they were able to make these more interesting vocal melodies that paired perfectly with the music.

[@Ekimiakawa]

This song, the chorus... Gives me chills everytime

[@christina-sf9je]

This is the song that put me on to this band!! Obsessed with their old stuff just as much as the new. Appreciate their art so much!

How about Perenial from Jinjer?

For the algorithm bc more people need to hear this song.

I discovered thia song in Spotify while listening to Thornhill. And I must say, the vocal, the music they are so amazing! You guys are insane!

[@JunFan777]

Goddamn what a great song. They took a bit to grow on me, but my 11 month old girl would smile and dance whenever I listened to "Holy Roller" or "Belcarra" so I checked some more of their stuff out. So glad I did. Besides the obvious awesomeness of the singer the rest of the band is really talented as well.

I'm officially obsessed with this band. 🤘❤
