Sleep Token Granite Lyrics
Sulfur on your breath
Granite in my chest
You will never have to talk about it
You'll never want to talk about it
Fury too damn late
Reason dislocates
Soon you'll never have to talk about it
You never want to talk about it
I was more than just a body in your passenger seat
You were more that just somebody I was destined to meet
I see you go half blind when you're looking at me
But I am
Between the second hand smoke and the glass on the street
You gave me nothing whatsoever but a reason to leave
You say you want me but you know I'm not what you need
But I am
When you sit there
Acting like you know me
Acting like you only brought me in to get below me
Never mind the death threats
Parting at the door
We'd rather be six feet under than be lonely
If you had a problem
Then you should have told me
Before you started getting all aggressive and controlling
You only drink the water
When you think it's holy
So keep an eye on the road or we will both be here forever
I was more than just a body in your passenger seat
You were more that just somebody I was destined to meet
I see you go half blind when you're looking at me
But I am
Between the second hand smoke and the glass on the street
You gave me nothing whatsoever but a reason to leave
You say you want me but you know I'm not what you need
But I am
I was more than just a body in your passenger seat
You were more that just somebody I was destined to meet
I see you go half blind when you're looking at me
But I am
Between the second hand smoke and the glass on the street
You gave me nothing whatsoever but a reason to leave
You say you want me but you know I'm not what you need
But I am

Can we give props to the vesselets they sound amazing as well. His ability to change from falsettos to low notes and his slides are phenomenal

[@Dakiaty]

I hope we'll get a live album one day 😍

[@cefhamster]

The vesselets lol

[@Tammy_KellyNJC_AR]

@@cefhamster didn't know what else to call them and honestly don't think I even spelled it right! 😂

[@EgoApocalypse_]

They’re called Espera

[@xRANZIDx]

@@EgoApocalypse_ 10000%, every time I see a live performance they amp it up 10 fold

[@PeachPlastic]

Vessel's the walking like he's on a phone call.

When I first heard this song I played it nonstop for 2 days straight and have started to dive more into their music. This band is like no other

[@EmilyKaplan]

literally same haha

[@Omen465]

Only 2 days? Thats rookie numbers. I've been playing it every day for at least 2 weeks and counting since I first discovered it.

[@mclovinlife4018]

@@Omen465pssssh, two weeks? Amateur. I traveled forward in time as a young teen, downloaded the song, brought it back in time with me and have been listening to it for two decades straight

[@StrobeFireStudios]

Like discovering a new colour, right?

[@brezengirl]

And he didn't forget to sob a little after the song. Great band, great music after all. Thanks for sharing this.

[@JcBurnsRed]

Imagine how hard it must be for the background singers to stand still during the whole set :D

[@perdedoronline]

Couldn't have been me. Maybe it's my ADD🤣

[@85ddrummer]

They dance now I think. I saw a recent live clip where they were definitely moving

[@stichhavoc88]

They move now but it’s not as hard as you think. But even before they started dancing you could catch their hoods slightly bobbing to the music at times

[@iaintnotorious3438]

Vessel dances like a drunken master

[@kittynight9]

I love Vessel's dancing, it's very cute!! ❤

[@adriansmith6993]

Vessel sounds so good! Great video! Thank you! 🖤

[@chocolatecoveredgummybears]

amazing spot to record for us, ty so much omg

[@cloudeye7]

Holy cow! Thanks for filming. This is my favorite Sleep Token song.

[@PreciousB1983]

My current fave track!

[@Gorgeousmali]

Vessel is Jack Sparrow for metalheads🤩

Theres no way this man isnt handsome asf

[@ethereal9805]

Personally don't like Sleep Token live but their talent is UNDENIABLE. Won't be seeing them when they come by this year BUT I'm sure everyone who attends is gonna have the time of their lives. Very, very talented -- And the lyrics are pure perfection. Fabulous work.

[@dzdncnfzd3]

Faaaaack I should have been raging in that crowd 😭 wtf blue ridge

[@mattnorris4891]

The Snare cracks are perfect! Sorry, ... I'm a snare snob!

[@joshuadoyle1290]

This is the song that is getting into them. The summoning I heard first, and it's still growing on me. Honestly that song Im basically just into the chorus and the end. And I love heavy music, but that one I don't get the hype. It's probably my least favorite of theirs. It's still growing, I just like so much more off that album. Anyways I feel like this is like what BMTH dies now, but doesn't always nail it. Big fan of them too, especially the heavier stuff, the pop stuff, s couple I like... but Sleep Token does the blending a styles a little better. It's like Forest said... with Sleep Token, you never know what you're gonna get lol

[@theskyab0vee]

Do you The Summoning cam???? 😀😀😀

[@motosagela]

Man, I really want to see them. All of their shows in the US are all sold out. Dammit

[@Persephone_Personified]

worship

[@robkelvey270]

I wonder if one of the vesselsets is the girl who was in Blacklit canopy with Vessel? Hmmm

[@N.I.R.A.T.I.A.S.]

Nah Gemma's gone off to do her own thing. She has a Facebook page, if you can stomach that shit. Facebook, I mean, not her page specifically. I have a connection with someone who's friends with one of the backing singers. Gemma isn't one of them.

[@Kira-qc4qi]

The backup singers are called Espera, and you're a piece of human garbage for outting Vessel so carelessly. Fucking cunt

[@Jordanimal456]

Recorded moments before this person’s phone was likely stolen

[@SkyweaverFPV]

Mine was stolen at the very end of this….

[@TheBrandonn]

im glad i wore a fanny pack lol

[@lamicone1992]

id be fuckin in the crown for sure lmao

[@cats46meo9w]

When metalheads scream like backstreet boys teenage fangirls 😹. Cool performance still digging 3 or 4 songs by these dudes. Can’t say is really my thing, but is kinda aight

[@kakkycoasties8670]

I wouldn't say they're metal heads. Sleep Token def isnt metal.

It always makes me laugh at how much effort they put into their masks, their costumes, and the entire on-stage aesthetic, yet the guitar and bass look like they were just grabbed from a pawn shop on the way to the show.
