Sleep Token - DYWTYLM

[@mod_myst]

Lyrics: Do you roll with the waves? Do you duck into deep blue safety? Is it always the same? Do you wish that you loved me? Do you pull at the chains? Do you push into constant aching, Each and every day? Do you wish that you loved me? Is there something you give? That you will never recieve in return? Do you know what it is? Do you wish that you loved me? Are you trying to live Like everything is a lesson to learn? Can you ever forgive yourself? Do you wish that you loved me? My reflection just won't smile back at me like I know it should. I would turn into a stranger in an instant if I could. There is something eating me alive I don't know what it is. Maybe not that you conceal your feelings they just don't exist. Do you ever belive we can turn into different people? It's getting harder to be myself. Do you wish that you loved me? Could we ever release? Is it better to just not feel? Can we hit delete? Do wish that you loved me? And it's been so long that I'm forgetting what it feels like. But I'd rather not remind myself and leave it all behind. And I try so hard to fix it all but nothing seems to help But I cannot hope to give you what I cannot give myself. Do you wished that you loved me? (Smile back) Do you wished that you loved me? (At me) Do you wished that you loved me? Do you wished that you loved me? (Delete) Do you wished that you loved me? (Smile back) Do you wished that you loved me? (At me) Do you wished that you loved me? Do you wished that you loved me? Worship

[@zachrabaznaz7687]

Reminds me of Can't Handle This by bo burnham

[@JB-rc4ki]

As someone that struggles with identifying and processing emotions as well as facing a stack of professional and personal challenges, this line hits home. It's like challenging yourself to know how to love someone else when you're too boxed in to even understand the implications. How do you give someone else your emotional capacity when your own needs are suppressed by your own actions and lifestyle? Almost like if someone asked you "do you wish that you loved me?" But you're unable to because you feel the weight of everything else keeping you from chasing everything you want. The only spare time you have is spent trying to recover in "deep blue safety" and the necessary challenges before you make it harder to be yourself.

[@skyv3524]

The moment I fell in love with this song was when I realized it was about looking in the mirror and wishing you loved yourself the way other people love you, and living with regret, and trying to remember who you are beyond the darkness. It's been on replay for the whole month it's been out.

The smallest parts of this song are what I love the most. During the end chorus when he sings in the background, "Smile back." "At Me." "Delete." It's heart breaking.

[@freezin114]

So, based upon a quick lyric search. It's not smile back, at me, delete. It's smile back, at me, please. And I think the please adds such a deeper impact of please just make it better give me some hope. The delete version gives it impact. But the please gives it emotion.

​@@freezin114 the different questions always followed by "do you wish that you loved me?" Is almost childlike.

I'm really curious who designed these characters. This one might be my favorite concept: a chaotic heart, both armed and guarded. Each character has been tailored to its own song so appropriately that is hard to imagine they were designed by anyone other than Vessel. But they're so detailed that the artist is one hell of a visual artist. If the character designs are also Vessel, that's a *LOT* of talent to be contained in one person.

Vessel's vocals kill it, every time. I never know what to expect from them, instrumentally. They blow my mind.

[@eTxZombie]

I've listened to this song probably a hundred times already. This video is one that makes the most sense to me, in terms of the totem. This, in my opinion, is obviously a heart that has grown toxic or venomous with malignant tendrils, hardened with armor, and wearing a mask to conceal itself, and a knife to attack. This damaged heart is Vessel's adversary, something that he fights with. This devilish heart and the pain it causes keeps vessel further from sleep. It also has some mechanical qualities, that could be it's life support system. Not sure if the significance of that though. Around 2:20 when he sings the lyrics "Do you ever believe we could turn into different people? It's getting harder to be myself." the heart starts pouring black liquid, maybe venomous tears from it's mask. This could be Vessel's heart obsessing over and mourning for his lost love, in my opinion. Around 3:00 Vessel sings "But I'd rather not remind myself and leave it all behind And I've tried so hard to fix it oh but nothing seems to help But I cannot hope to give you what I cannot give myself" the heart stops pouring venom and the mask reverts to normal. I feel like this is Vessel overcoming his heartache and moving on. I could be completely off base, but to me, it feels like a transition from obsession and rejection to recovery and self acceptance. This heart may be one of Vessel's strongest opponents between him and Sleep, but the end of the song feels nearer to Sleep and peace than the beginning. Even if I'm completely wrong, and it's just a song with a random image, it's an amazing song, and they never cease to impress. Worship.

[@Darmok_onthe_ocean]

Yes to all, but I take it as him talking to himself. Like imposter syndrome. Or the double hearts we have from trauma… the one that we need to smile for the world and the one that is broken and hidden away. Do you wish you loved yourself? Healing the duality inside is one step closer to Sleep.

[@ullrich]

This is all really amazing. Great analysis. I have no idea if I'm anywhere near on course for what was meant, but my kneejerk feeling is that this is a song to yourself. About loving yourself, or not being able to. Or at least that's what I feel from it immediately. Like, I really do wish that I loved me. That's what I get from it.

[@eTxZombie]

@@ullrich I feel like that could absolutely be the case. If it isn't rejection from a lost love, it very well could be a transition from self loathing to self acceptance. Either way, there is definitely a transition from rejection, to acceptance, even if it's self hatred to self acceptance, it would still make sense.

I've been with Sleep Token since the deluxe version of Sundowning came out and have been through a wave of emotions through their entire catalog, but not even Blood Sport, my favorite ST song, broke me like this. But that still encapsulates everything I love about music, and everything v about this band.

Holy hell this dropped 5 minutes ago, can't wait for this album! I was just listening to VORE and wondering when the next one would drop! Stop reading my mind guys! 🔥💗👩‍🎤

Just when you think you know what the general vibe of an album is, they throw a song like this in and pleasantly destroys that notion. I am just blown away by this band!

[@Onnlen]

I love this song so much. I can’t even explain how it’s hit me so hard.

[@robertcannan621]

I've been saying for years that it should be considered a crime that these guys aren't bigger than they are. It seems that with this album cycle they are finally getting the recognition they so very deserve, even if it did take almost a decade. Thank you, Sleep Token. I pray to Sleep that I can get to see you guys perform in the next year or so.

[@OmnikouraBB]

This band will be remembered.

[@apexapey]

listening to this and breaking out in tears half way is all that I needed. This music sets free what I thought I lost, and it is a cleansing to listen to you, unlike anything I have ever experienced before. Thank you, with all my heart and soul. This is Karthasis.

[@gwarriorfromhell]

I'm seriously confounded by this song. I have been listening to it for the past 3 hours straight and I have gone through so many different emotions and feel like I'm stuck in this weird trance like state. No other song has ever done this to me, and I can't get enough of it. Worship

This song makes me want to stare wistfully out a window on a train alone, rain hitting the glass as a single tear falls down my cheek. 10/10

[@matheusanderle963]

Incrível a evolução desses caras, acertam em todas. Não tem como definir qual a melhor música deles, pois todas são boas. Tá na hora deles deram um voltinha na América do Sul

[@metalmatt9329]

I didnt "get" this song to begin with. Now I hear it as Vessel talking to his reflection in the mirror. When heard like this, the main question "do you wish that you loved me?" becomes incredibly poignant 🖤

[@PeteBaldwin]

The bit right at the end where he almost sounds like he's begging his reflection to smile back at him is fucking heartbreaking....

[@alexplayspiano94]

The Love You Want, Fall for Me, and DYWTYLM are like the perfect trilogy.

[@Annatar_Lord_of_Gifts]

@@Digitalgems9000 It's a chorus effect of layered vocals, not auto tune.

The vocal layering is so good. The Love You Want + Fall For Me. Love it. EDIT: 2 weeks later, I now sing this song super loud and cry while doing so. I love sleep token with all my heart

[@ThisIsTheIkeMaster]

This song is so beautiful but so sad, especially since it seems like he's singing to himself 💔 We love you so much, Vessel, not just the music you make (which is perfect), and not just your aesthetic; we would love to know the real you 🤍🖤 your music makes our hearts weep and sing and party and scream. You're wonderful

Forever grateful for what we receive before the album releases. Worship.

[@craigus1991]

I find this track really under rated. It’s not my type of genre on a typical basis, but the lyrics are so introspective and relatable that the simplicity of the music helps that stand out more prominently, in the same way as they do in Fall For Me. The placing of this song on the album is utter genius. It’s like he’s talking himself and beginning to come to terms with his guilt, grief and trauma. All the lyrics connect with the final three tracks really closely. It’s the first song that has any glimpse of optimism and change on the horizon, despite how difficult it will be to get over what’s eating away at him, pun intended.

[@widexawake_]

But you DO know what you're going to get when you open a box of chocolates. They have descriptions of each individual chocolate on the back of the box.

[@haveanicedaym8]

This song is in repeat for about a month and it still gives me shivers and even a little bit tears... Seems like a found a perfect music for me in this band I almost have never wrote a comment under the youtube video but these guys are just incredible and i felt like i want to share this emotions with them an their fans

[@Reject101Personal]

Everyone in the comments all surprised by this song must not have listened to much to the back catalogue. Its very much in style and keeping with their previous tunes (You guys would lose minds at the fact they once covered an OutKast song) But check out Fall for me and Take Aim. Both on their previous 2 albums (Going back to 4 years now) that are similar to this. Its great you are all just discovering band, but they have 2 previous full length albums, extended versions of said albums and EPs out. Do yourself a favour and check out their other work other than just jumping on the train.

[@veloci5862]

I totally agree, though I don't think 'Take Aim' is a good example. It fits more with Vessels solo songs like 'Give', 'Missing Limbs', and 'Drag Me Under' as in that II wasn't really involved.

[@II_Holocene_II]

their cover of Hey Ya is how i first found out about them, and i've been a fan ever since. they really honed in their style

[@SacredShores]

So glad to be alive at the same time as Sleep Token

This was the first song of theirs that I have listened to and always will have a special place in my heart.

Their are plenty more that will stick with you. Trust me.

[@Kenn0o0]

UGH with elements incorporated from "The Love you Want" and "Fall for Me" BUT also using a different vibe is ssooo insane. I'm crying, I'm shitting, I'm pissing

[@erik6737]

I like how he uses vibrato through this heavy pitch correction. Like of course the pitch stays the same but the formants still shift around and the tremolo is still there. It gives of a nice flavor

[@PyroD23]

"Could we ever release? Is it better to just not feel? Can we hit Delete? Do you wish that you loved me?" Oh man. Falling in love with this band more and more every day.

[@acatlover138]

A love affair with 0 guilt

[@morgenlefay]

The slower tempo, breathing and ii’s heartbeats in this. Feels like private stream of consciousness in the digital era (“delete”) but the breathing mid-song gives the song a living, organic feel extending beyond the visual, packaged parameters that contain the music. I love these creatures for each song, they’re too cute. I knew this song was going to get to me in the middle. Forgiveness is a setting we can all switch on for our own sakes; it’s merciful we have the capacity to forgive and why the will to do so features in a lot of religious themes; but forgetting, well, not even science can *adequately* explain memory (why we retain or lose what we do; obviously on some level, when we touch fire and it burns, our self-preserving instinct does not forget this fact. Neuroscience can explain damage to certain parts of the brain can impact recall specific ways. Or a witness to a crime by luck has flawless memory of a split second impression that, to any other brain or moment, would not stand out, to bring justice. And, well, there’s plenty of random memories that serve some functional, incredible purpose.) But it’s also just a beautiful song about altruism on another level (is there something you give and never receive in return). Teasing out an innate innocent desire for altruism people have drowned out in the world, overwhelmed in experiences (including digital experiences which can be direct and authentic but a majority of which can operate as false or superficial), lost in distractions. People deep down genuinely do wish they could return to that state of innocence but the ugliness of the world restricts, represses (this desire for innocence is that “something eating me alive, idk what it is”). Feels like a calling back to innocence.

[@bruh2876]

The reactions to this song show how many people have only heard the new singles. Sleep Token have always done stuff like this!

[@tiniest.terror]

personally, i think vessel is talking about the relationship with themselves. like a deep self love conversation in the mirror type vibe. they could very well be singing to or about someone, but when i, myself, listen to this song it's everything i've always wanted to say to myself so it just is very emotional and i hands down think this is easliy a new top 5 Sleep Token song for me... lowkey is helping me heal... thank you guys

[@honiklas]

Another song to listen to 24/7

[@SweetElliePie]

I am not okay. I am not in the right place mentally for this music. I'm wrecked. Sleep Token is on another level. I wasnt ready for those emotions. Fan forever here.

[@Reversoul]

I cannot wait until I can listen to this album in it's entirety from start to finish. What a journey it will be. Love this band.

[@theyurireviewer]

Vessel is like a filmmaker. He creates soundscapes that fit the feel and tone of the project. He doesn’t compromise. He has an understanding that media is not dictated by fads or expectations. It’s dictated by what is appropriate at that time. That’s why the music works so well. Because it’s not aimless. It says what it needs to say. And beautifully. 🔥🙏🔥 #DYWTYLM
