LYRICS
Do you crave a greater reason to exist?
Have you always known that symmetry is bliss?
We know you see the pattern
Lay in your lap
Think of your path
Philosophy don't bother me
Come back when you're trash
You are welcome here but you must come alone
You know everything is everywhere is home
Do you see it?
Prisoner, prisoner
We found you
We feel you breathing
Are you there?
Can you hear us calling you?
We’ll never judge you
Run out of battery
Learn how to patronize
You gotta obtain, sustain, that guy
No time to make a deal today
We just push that other guy outta the way
Nothing’s in a vacuum
Space-time has no value
We’re all connected on this wave
They spoke with potent pain
To all that’s broken
To tears in rain
But every side was the same
No coin to flip
Give yourself a medal
You just met the devil
You’re the last in the world to find another false god
Give yourself a medal
For dancing with the devil
You’re the last in the world
Come back down to crippling doubt
Well Billy backs abortion and eye cream
Smokes a pack of Christian Bale
And fucks on an island
Well smooth as oscillation of sine waves
Get off the high horse and fly the spy plane
Classic acid
Put me back in the casket
Weave me into the fabric
The filter is freaking out

This era of DGD has been on a whole new level.
I love seeing them continue to rise! Their talent level is insane. They are carrying a genre that is past its prime.
@@HotMommyTamale it's okay to be wrong
@@TT-sp5st DGD is post-hardcore tho, that's what he's reffering to
@@TT-sp5st metal core 😂
nah dude. the era when Kurt was in dgd was peak dgd
Not sure why the vocals still amaze me after hearing them so much, but damn....
BECAUSE THEY'RE AMAZING
cause Tillian just gets better and better
IntroToMadness what amazes me about DGD is their breakdowns in almost every fuckin song it just changes pace but it goes together so fuckin good 🤘🏽
They're always amazing. Seem them live a number of times and they're always fucking great live.
GetSomeRest how u mnow
damn that must be one of the most tastiest chorus I've ever heard in a while, massive.
Bagir dude it’s stuck in my head.
that guitar just rings forever. WONGGGGGGG
It's amazing like a crazy wall of beautiful sound
It’s like a movie bro
I love it!
I love how in every music video Jon never looks like a 'screamer', he just looks like the biggest goof.
We gotta Bless This Mess mate
He just vibin lol
showed my sister a pic of him once and she just goes “wow he just looks like a dude”
I noticed that too he has no tattoos or any edgy look and when he screams he doesnt try to act cool but had a huge smile on his face lol I love it, definitely helps him to stand out from other screamers
Armanimation9 funny enough in Secret Bands song “Rabbit Hole” he has a lyric where he says “I really like art but forgot to get tattooed” but i agree. Something about Jon is just different and stands out.
Dance Gavin Dance is literal perfection.
Absolutely yes
Exactly
yes
Literally their sound is just aging like fine wine. They just keep sounding better and better. Their older stuff ages well too.
Thats because this was a sianvar song that Donovan Melero wrote
@Kohai Jonny craig era slapped, what type of drugs you on
@@eddysetgo source?
@@droptherapy2085 sergio said it in an interview
@@Apollowram jonnys drugs
That's actually not a special effect. Jon Mess can actually just do that with his eyes naturally.
Of course. People thought that was a filter??
Mesmerizing!
@@styxxhs8048 mess merizing
He also yeahs in the language of the devil
It's kinda weird that Eminem's new video also has his eyes doing this... coincidence?! ..probably. lol
Their style of music and the singer's voice is so unique, along with the screaming... the songs by this band are seriously so damn addictive
Yeah mazing sound they have
Look up swancore
@@boarderking133 Nothing else really comes close.
Peter A Lot Like Birds? Slaves? Emarosa? Stolas? At The Drive-in? None of those bands come close??
@@roemip to DGD's greatness? No imo. Theyre all good though!
Watching Tim groove to his own basslines and do that lil pounce at 1:21 just makes me want to cry and smile at the same time. RIP, Tim
he wasnt even playing anything there lol
THIS CAME OUT OF NOWHERE AND IM HYPED
Just like most of there releases :)
they just announced the album date,
they always release something new soon after. so stoked for this 🖤🖤🖤
If you have reddit, their subreddit was going wild yesterday because fye leaked the album cover or realeased the album cover
lmao
I’m in my 30’s and DGD gets me excited like a teenager girl drooling over a boy band
I'm 32, not a girl, but I can relate. Today was rough at work and this song made everything better instantly!
Sig Curtis Same here. Late 20’s, terrible, 15 hour day at work. But coming home to this was like a gift from a galactic Easter bunny. Plus, it’s the weekend. Silver linings, man!
Same in 30 and this gets me going
@@treys4528 I hope your days get better from now on! DGD sure lifts people's spirits up! Keep up the good work my dude.
I’m 28 and I’ve been a DGD fan since I was 14 - it’s been a journey and I’m still such a huge fan
I can tell Tilian has really worked on his vocals. They're much warmer, more rounded, and effortless. He kicked ass before but at this point he's God tier. He's the Brendon Urie of post-hardcore. And I mean that as a compliment. Just.... stupid talented.
Totally get what your saying but brendon didn't touch tilian in his material me era.
Better than brandon by a landslide
@@rayxmoneyyy Brendon and Tillian are on two completely different spectrums of music, so they're incomparable.
They're both amazing vocalists and they both have incredible range.
Well, you are correct in that they both have sexual misconduct allegations
@@dirzicus1713 bro💀💀
The Band: grooving, head banging or dancing
Jon: “ya I think I’ll just chill here on this couch”
💯
Bro is tripping on the couch
I’ve heard 15 seconds of the song and I’m already obsessed.
×2
That sucks lol
Speaks for most of us here 😅
Psh.
@Jamie Donner
This song ain't nothing compared to Linkin Park songs. They blow these guys away. Listen to Nirvana, Pink Floyd, Sponge, Foo Fighters, Queen, Kiss, Tenacious D, blink 182, Gin Blossoms, Metallica, Slayer, Beastie Boys, Styx, Poison, Quiet Riot, Bon Jovi, Journey, Smashing Pumpkins, Green Day, Led Zeppelin, etc. I got a long list. One bonus band Greta Van Fleet whom many people say they're exactly like Led Zeppelin. I agree mostly but not 100% because Greta Van Fleet has their own lyrics and they're showing great potential by bringing classic rock n roll back. Waiting for their next album which is likely to be released this April. Anyways, this song is trash, my opinion though. I'm that 478th dislike on here, we need more melody in music nowadays. Pop and mumble rap won't cut it.
Tillian did say he's sure he found his "voice" and I'm totally ok with all of it. I really love everything about DGD. The chemistry that they all have is insanely good. I haven't disliked any of their songs. So excited for what's to come from my favorite band.
hell yeah!!! DGD forever!! lets goooooo!!!! much love 👊
Everyone: *playing*
Jon: C H I L L I N G
Literally just vibing
That's how he rolls :p
God has to take a break every once and a while
You gave me a giggle
BLESSED IS THIS MESS
Christ, that's gotta be the strongest chorus I have ever heard
Dude fucking seriously, so melancholic.
I was just telling my friend that tonight. It’s so somber and haunting but in a good way. I just started listening to them and every song I’ve listened to so far is a fucking banger.
@@8TheendBegins4 You're in for a real treat! DGD definitely stands out, in a great way 😊
@@8TheendBegins4 hope you don't mind not being able to find a bad song. These boys just can't seem to pull that off.lol
Exactly! what a voice !!!
yo dgd you should do a song where Tilian screams and Jon sings
I want a song like Man of the Year were they both go back and forth and then together with Tillians heavier vocals. That songs class.
@@BadDubII there's a bit in Lyrics Lie that sounds very similar to that, with the back and forth vocals between Jon and Tilian.
@@DatSheetKrae Yup I was happy to hear that!
Yesssss, I was thinking like they should record them doing each other's parts 😂
Flama your English was perfect don’t worry
The lads just don't miss
This is a miss.
@@DreamcastTrash Not a miss for me.
Definitely not a miss
@@DreamcastTrash You're the only one missing
@Frank Marano DGD and Every Tine I Die are probably the most consistent bands still going
you've waited too long, Mikerisms tabbed this like 2 months ago
This could be one of the most emotional, catchiest choruses I've ever heard in my life.
One of my favorite things about dgd videos is Jon casually mouthing over his parts lol
Joe Learned he does a lot of straight face casual screams live too lol. Def his little thing
Right?? So funny
Producer: “Tillian stop flexing your triceps.”
Tillian: “na.”
Oh my God lol
Tilian: No I don't think I will
I don't think anyone should deny tilian that right
It's how he maintains that glistening sheen
Hello!Nurd okay I like that better
Looks like Tilian maxed out his angelic vocals skill tree and has moved on to the screaming skill tree.
big check bro
Listen to the two? tides of man albums he's on. Dude can yell that's for sure. Back before he was in DGD.
I’m glad they increased the level cap on DGD
@@tekkena.seccin3935 Same, been waiting on that update for a year or so.
You late lol tides of man.
This has a completely different feel from Artifical Selection, and that's not a bad thing at all. Holy shit this slaps
That Dude Tyler agreed dude, reminds me of their early stuff with Kurt
@@connorterry7773 For sure. Got some Happiness-era vibes with that funky middle section
Reminded me of their song “blue dream”
@@connorterry7773 YES
Every album since the beginning has a different feel and sound. That's why dgd is still amazing after ten years of making music.
Always look forward to reading Jon's lyrics
Are they still just gibberish?
@@boarderking133 Yes in the best way
Gibberish isn’t the word. It’s more like word salad with Caesar coz everybody knows that ranch dressing is overrated
hate you for this nah more like pico de gallo
Tomato basil shit 🤘🏼💯
And to think the band almost folded when they had a rotating door of vocalists.... THANK YOU WILL AND MATT FOR HOLDING IT ALL TOGETHER
Dude, this comment. ❤️❤️❤️ Because of them we now have top tier music. I don’t think they get praise enough.
Amen!!!!! DGD forever!!! lets Gooooo! much love!!! 👊
This did not age well
@@masterblaster8386 ?? Tillian is still in the band lol..
@@johnknee1228 oh no
There's no words to describe how much I love every song of dgd. I can't believe that every single song they release it feels like the greatest ever.
Vane Anda A. agreeeedd
This.
:0
yesss
💯🤘🏾
WHY DO THEY GET BETTER AND BETTER.
They're like a genre all their own.
Must be nice to only be in competition with yourself.
Dude seriously. Every album really gets better and better at this point.... Fuck...
A genre was created for them, swancore!
phenomenal, I listen to the instrumental versions all the time and the musicianship is absolutely remarkable. The bass, drums, guitar are all in their own element and then you add in Tillian and Mess...and they themselves add more color. Fucking awesome.
They really are in their own class. Even when compared to similar bands like stolas , eidola, etc.. they're just way more interesting to listen to
"Nothing is in a vacuum, space time has no value, we are all connected on this wave" stirs my soul
*sees new DGD song*
my music player: "Oh no."
my brain chemicals: "*Oh Yes.*"
My neighbor: "oh shit"
My parents "oh God"
Gamekeeper sleep oh no
*THESE CHEMICALS*
ftfy
MY BRAIN CHEMICALS ACTUALLY GIVE A SHIT (reference)
It looks like Jon was tired and wanted to lie down so they just planned the whole shoot around him
The man deserves a break :p
Wonder if he can actually do those screams sitting like that
Hey all that screaming makes a man tired 😂
Screaming isn’t hard once you learn the technique, you can do it in any position lol :p
Just like singing, but with a different set of muscles!
He prolly dropped acid
Will Swan’s guitar parts are so unique, like I genuinely can’t think of another guitarist that sounds like him. Dude’s a master of his craft
Everyone bustin' out their funky moves and dancing along......and then there's Jon Mess lying in the sofa screaming cause he probably just doesn't wanna get up and dance
That's our John :p
Nuclear Dummy he is always on that other level lol
Screamo guy ruin it
Dance Jon Dance
@@Mobiliksa
Tilian: "Dance Jon, Dance"
Jon: *lies in the sofa and screams at Tilian*
No body does what DGD does as good as DGD does. They are the kings.
This song and video are perfect.
Just heard of this band, and wtf, they are amazing.
My friend introduced me to them and I love her so much for that
Same same same. I only listen to hip hop usually. But this is different
Been amazing since 2004
Secret band....
Welcome to the cult
HOW do they keep on getting better and better? This is a madness. A beautiful, beautiful madness.
this.
Experience and practice.
Seems like i'm the only one who thinks the opposite, imo every song after mothership has been weak.
THAT TILIAN SCREAM AT THE END WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT
I HEARD IT TOO!!! AAAAAAAH
The song wasn't grasping me that much, but then that breakdown kicked in and BOOM.
Caught me so off guard, just had to relisten to the part a couple times before finishing the song!
When?
@@calebvindas488 3:15
I knew this band for at least 10 years but recently something clicked in me and I just can't stop listening to them. I love you guys, frfr.
The way Jon never matches how you think he should be singing in the videos is my favorite part
RIGHT! I was literally thinking the same thing, but it's great lmao
The only band that can make me tear up, get goose bumps, laugh and feel like my whole life is complete every time
No one:
Tilian: B O D Y R O L L S
I thought I was the only one noticed! When I tell you my jaw DROPPED
@@briannakelley8208 Honestly who wouldn't notice them H I P S
I've been replaying those 2 seconds over and over 😂
Too be fair, that's like the only way you could possibly dance to DGD.
@@JayFFAFAlesanaES you understand how bad that looks and sounds right?^
Jon brings such an incredible energy to this band
Instantly made this Friday’s even better than pay day!
3:16 gives me chills EVERYTIME Jon's and tilian's voices blend so perfect
They continue to evolve throughout the years. It’s seems like they will never run out of ideas
Why Are They So Good.
therapy: expensive
watching tilian flex his biceps: 100% free and effective.
Nicole Deala 😄😄😄
@@ladypalerider this is very true, thankfully im not the only one
There ye go, have 400 ;)
Triceps* which is the biggest muscle in the upper arm. xD but AGREE NONETHELESS
You should see him shirtless
Greatest Band Ever!!!
Jon Mess is literally just vibin bruh. Chillin
I’m a female singer and I can BARELY hit the high notes in the song. So talented bro
New DGD MV: nice visuals of everyone jamming
My Eyes: Staring at Jon's resting leg for 70% of the video
Sebastian Day watching him just tap his foot to the music video and seein him vibe lol he’s funny
God same
Their tripping that’s why
@Sebastian Day Lmao thank god I thought I was the only one
Same
The Swan-nes off this song is just *chef's kiss*
GenyOreo ?
This song has one of the greatest chorus' I've ever heard.... Can't stop listening to it!
Same!!!!! this whole album is fucking epic!! much love 👊
Damn, Lil Til finally gettin more comfortable with lower octave singing. I’m hella proud of him.
Dude has a wild range
he already sang this low back in Tides of Man but i think it was the management or sth like that, that more or less forced him to sing this high. He's using his lower/natural more since AS and i like it way more tbh
Hold up was that a Tilian scream near the end???
I swear they always leave an album gap between him screaming just so they can get this reaction when he busts it out.
Kinda sounds like the dude from eidola I think he's still the second guitarist? Though I heard Sergio from Royal coda wrote the second guitar for this
If you want more of those, check out some of the Tides of Man stuff. He used to do it more.
When does Tilian scream?
Just sounds like Jon's scream blending to the vocals
Yep. It's official. After playing this on repeat since it was released, this is now my favorite song by them.
The ending might be my fav jon mess verse
Prisoner,man of the year,and either caviar or uneasy hearts weigh the most are my favs
I love how Jon just ...activates... at 0:22
Like some sort of robot... with human hair
This made me forget the time my dad went out for cigarettes and never came back. Y’all can’t miss
Best Band on Earth
Jon in the songs : extremely calm
Jon in live : *unleashes the demon inside him*
actually no
Slaps harder than my ma when I spill lipstick in her Valentino white bag
S Avocii ahhhhh!!!
LMAO
S Avocii yes!😂😂
wowowowahtah LIPSTICK IN MY VALENTINO
A WAAH WAAH OWHOAA
This chorus is probably the strongest I've ever heard. Chords are: Dmaj7 > BSus2/F# > F#Sus2 > E. Who knows what scale/scales Tilian is using for the lyrics?
Yes, someone please give this. I eventually wanna be able to cover his part in this song. I need to know how high I need to set my goals xD
Their chords progression giving me goosebumps. But I can't tell what chords haha you good!
when the chords are sus
TL:DR Dorian minor in G for verse and B for chorus notes.
well the verse is a Dorian minor scale ig and in the key of G. he ascends A, B, C, D ,E F#, G, then goes down A, G, F# and hangs on the F#. the notes he sings in the chorus are, in order C#, D, B, B, C#, G#, A, G# E. A, G#, E, C#-D-C# B. On the last time through it ends on A, G#, F#. It still seems to be the same scale but just in a different key. which probably has to do with the chords being played. this is a really late comment but some answer is better than none at all I suppose. sorry for the brick of text.
Absolutely GORGEOUS!! That Til scream got me crying, just pure brilliance
Showing this to my boss:
Boss: "Oh nice vibes, i like it a lot!"
*Screamings Start*
Also Boss: "Oh no! It's too heavy for me."
Post Mortem screaming guy ruin it
Simpleton
@@AnnettexAutopsy Screaming guy is a vibe boss you must beat the vibe check to progress to the next level
screamo guy ruining it as always
kenny hesse lol it was supposed to say screamo guy ruin it but it autocorrected me. But its a meme
Till this day DGD has never made a bad song. Literally one of the, if not the, most artistically talented band. Been following since before they were even a big name. And they have not sold out or changed for anyone but them self’s!
Editor: "what filters do you like for this?"
Them: "yes"
Jon: "...can you add the filter that make me look cute?"
like he needs one
NotSlowJustSpecial FACTS
"You know that meme where you distort my face? Yea that."
“THE FILTER IS FREAKING OUT!”
He doesn't need a filter
new Dance Gavin Dance songs usually take me at least a second listen to realize how good they really were on the first listen, but hoooly crap, this was an exception! I was hooked after listening to it for the first time!
Me: wow a DGD song where the lyrics are completely coherent and make sense
DGD: 3:19
Me: AND THERE IT IS
annainretrograde LOL underrated asf comment!
Think its time to listen johnys era
Theyre lyrics you feel not understand silly gooses
What's incoherent about little Billy here supporting abortion *AND* eye cream?
@@samynator0904 billy you need to pick one or the other smhhh
Awesome. Love the psychedelic Sianvar vibes I get from this. Also Tilian sounds great!
Antlion161 If Donovan has a quest appearance in the new album I will FREAKING LOSE MY DAMN MIND!!! 🤯🙏🏻💜
Sergio from sianvar actually played guitar on this. So dope 🙌
I love how much the Swancore fam intertwine with each others projects.
Nobody:
Absolutely nobody:
Jon Mess: 👁👄👁
Blythus FAVORITE COMMENT EVER
Also why he look so happy and vibin
DEAD 🤣
@@zanegardnerbmx6749 classic acid
okay lobotomite lol
I just listened to these guys for the first time yesterday, via punk rock mba. What a great bunch! I'm 43 and was raised on old school punk and metal, I gotta say they rock. I've been listeing to Afterburner on repeat, it's total ear candy. Great poppy choruses, (this song's chorus is the best,, can't get enough of it!), jazzy noodling on guitar and great skill for building songs, they always throw a curveball at your ears, they always have something that shifts away from the obvious. Great job!
Hell yeah!!!!! I Love this comment!!! much love bro!!! 👊
Love how funky this one is, the lyrics are great. Another banger gents
Literally the only band that continues to get better with time.
Silverstein, Every Time I Die, Norma Jean, Phinehas, Silent Planet, and August Burns Red want your location.
The best chorus I've heard in my entire life.
Absolutely 👌🏻
You'll always be remembered Tim,
Rest easy
Jon casually trippin on the couch is a whole mood😂
LP Jon went 👁👄👁
2:33 this aways giving me chills.
Dgd always seems to send chills throughout my whole body, I must be a prisoner to their music
Top three DGD songs for me.
1. Man of the year
2. We own the night
3. Prisoner
Everyone's wondering why Jon's sitting and chilling. Tillian wanted a philosophical song and lyrics. Jon's answer: "Philosophy don't bother me, come back when you're trash.". *proceeds to sit on sofa and be disinterested*
Honestly, that makes Jon even hotter 😍🔥
Ive listened to this song maybe 10 times now.
And even though its 4 minutes long. It feels like 1
Their music is so good that a 4 minute song feels short
This is a good sign for this album
Seriously though!!! every song they put out feels like 30 seconds but 99% of them are damn near 4 minutes. so crazy. love DGD so much :))
Bangers on deck!!!
Lol seriously I found this song randomly today and I replayed it like 10 times
3:17 never knew I needed tilian screaming till I heard that
Is it really him? Doesn’t sound like him at all.
@@YvensReboucas I feel like it was him. That didn't sound like Jon.
He was screaming on Mothership as well.
Yvens Reboucas watch one of their live performances of Carve. Tilian does some of the screams there and it sounds exactly like he does in this song. He also does some shouty vocals on Made of Plastic from his solo project that sound pretty similar, but a bit less harsh
That was Mess
Fuck, that chorus gives me chills, Tillian is a fucking legend.
I think this song is about the soul where Strawberry's Wake is about the mind.
In the age of progress the mind is treated like a respected mature being where soul is treated like a child. It is free of judgement, burden and passage of time and is never taken seriously.
This song encourages you to respect your soul as it may be well over a million years old while your brains time in this world is limited and its always clinging to reasons full of doubt and fear.
But again, I only "think" this way so maybe its just my mind trying to reason with me. What I FEEL is that this song is fucking awesome.
Love this comment 🙏🏻 we feel the same
I feel the same🔥
@@Sammitche we feel you breathing
welp when i go driving today expect everyone to hear this song, love you guys i cant wait for the new album!
God, I can't believe this band has been with me since middle school. I'm SO glad they're still together. They're that one band that keeps me feeling nostalgic.
Definitely feeling a Deftones influence, especially in the chorus. Awesome!
I thought the same thing! Super cool direction I think
Thought the exact same thing as well. Such a huge Deftones vibe from this, which makes sense considering Will has listed Deftones as a big influence.
Finally someone sees that!
The songs kimdracula and beauty school, are both songs I hear when I think about comparisons
I think it sounds like a circa survive chorus , too. I can’t remember which track though 👌🏻
This is masterpiece
As much as I love Jonny Craig’s vocals, Tilian is the perfect voice I never knew they dance Gavin dance needed. Like his voice compliments will swan so much.
10 years of a maturing sound while growing up with you guys. Dude said it best. Aging like a fine wine
this song is the definition of Goosebumps
Tillians vocals.... out of this fucking world
Make a bad song already. You’re makin the rest of the scene look bad.
Lol
could not agree more
I love bands! Super! But whenever I compare musicalities, DGD is just too much to handle.
They're incapable.
I found it good
Spotify just recommended me these guys and my god, it's about time!
Absolute Masterpiece! I Love this song! what an amazing Vocalist!
I loved that I was able to wake up to this!
Tilian has the voice of an angel 🔥🔥🔥
He is a monster!
DGD will never be this good again.
i remember when this dropped and i was very emotional… i knew this was their prime. even at that point in time
That was intense 🔥from 🇵🇭 with 💚
