Vessel crying at the end weighs more than the heaviest guitar. Worship.
Adds a really powerful touch to a very emotional song. :)
Goosebumps bro!!!😭😭
Ugh plus the powerful end chorus. Never heard him belt so hard
shit I actually teared up
What does worship mean? im new here
Therapist: what do we do when we are upset?
Me: Listen to Sleep Token
Therapist: yes.
Mhm music is therapy (ik I'm a tad late)
It’s damn good therapy too. Helps me out all the time.
Said this to my surgeon a month ago and he said the same.
Wow. Yeah. I feel this comment 😥😩
The first time I heard this song, I was emotional, but when I heard Vessel crying at the end, I lost it. This is one of my favorite songs by them by far.
Ive only listened to a few of their songs and this one is one that I can't stop listening to. Once this song comes up from my mix....its gonna be the only song you'll hear coming out out of my room on full blast for at least 15-20 minutes lmao. I love it
Someone need's to explain.... how is Sleep Token is only just now getting the recognition they deserve when they've always been this Good.
I just recently swapped from listening to EDM to this in December. Let me just say I’ve known Sleep Token from my best friend and he’s been listening to there music for a while now. I’m happy I changed genres now tho because it was 100% worth it!!! 🤍
I came from Thy light wintercult and chemical brothers, basically.
It just takes time. They aren't really all that old yet
@@EndlessDream-Arts04literally same
@@xonoghoroe9848 Ok the fact that you mentioned me in a comment and I’m literally listening to this song rn is crazy lol 😂 yet again not at the same time because I’m always listening to it
Jesus. What did I do to deserve to find this album at this point in my life? The algorithm got this one right.
Amen
This song hits alot harder when you have just gone through a break up and you tried your hardest to fix everything but the damage was already done
This happened to me months ago 😢
Yes, I’m not in a breakup but the one I love more than anything I lost 7 yrs ago and it ripped me apart to this day, it’s crazy but we read connected and live together right now but I feel like and think after this lease is up she’s going to be out of my life again and I’m trying to be the best version of me for her that I can and if she leaves after this I just don’t think I’ll be able to handle that pain again.
This song hits a lot harder when you're like vessel and lost a parent.
@BASS IMPROV JAMS hey man i feel that. Just gotta carry that thougg, and know that at least YOU were better this time around. Cant live your life dwelling on whether other people see it or not. Be true to yourself. That's something i came to grips with last year myself. Hope everything worked out though since it's been months since you commented. As always though, Worship!
Preach
"I wanna feel my stars align again"...."even if the Earth breaks like burned skin"
Damn good lyrics.
My ex died in June of 2020... I can't listen to this song without thinking of her. We were already broken up, but that's not because either of us wanted to end things. It's all very complicated... I miss her every single day.
Stay strong bro
So did mine January 2021. Wishing you all the best bro hope things get easier, keep your head up ❤
Hope you find comfort soon.
My spouse of 14 years died April of 2023. I found her convulsing in the living room a morning after my night shift, with our dog curled up next to her. I miss her every day too.
I am truly sorry. I don't have the words. I hope your heart is as healed as it can be. Keep her safe in it forever 💖
After what feels like thousands of listens, that outro with Vessel crying still makes me cry like a babe.
Worship
This marks the end of cycle. Worship
But the beginning of sleep token. Its time for them to take over the world
@@coreyw5981it’s happening now
@@coreyw5981 This aged well.
Your comment aged beautifully @@coreyw5981
i don’t normally pour my heart out in random places on the internet but sleep token’s music really touches a deeply emotional part of me i didn’t even know existed, and this song especially does it for me lol. it’s like their songs are formulated to access that specifically and give you a safe space that allows you really sit and absorb those feelings, even about situations you swore you were over. something about the authenticity and rawness of it all. like reopening wounds and healing them simultaneously. i’ve found such a great comfort in their music ever since i’ve discovered them and decided they are one of, if not my absolute favorite band. i’ve never listened to a band or even just music that made me feel to the extent that they do before i found them. so thank you sleep token, for providing me with something i didn’t even know i needed. your songs are truly masterpieces in my mind
They transcend music… Sleep Token is an experience. I feel like this song was made for me. Too many feels, too many mistakes I can’t be forgiven for.
I've described their albums as intensive therapy sessions to people. so many people have opened up from their music. So many hidden wounds uncovered and healed or processed. The lyrics are just on another level. I feel safe in their music and it's healing parts of me I never thought would be.
The crying at the end feels like the right emotion to finish off the cycle
I feel this song in the failed relationship that left an ever bleeding hole.We are entangled indeed. thank you for this.
W O R S H I P
So honestly my ex girlfriend and ex friend decided to leave me over something extremely stupid and it sucked because I know if they talked it out like adults like I wanted to we would be fine. But honestly I'm better off without them because they held me down in many ways. But I hope you are doing ok.
This album has completely coincided with one of the most emotionally heavy periods of my life, and as bittersweet as the end of this cycle is... These are gifts I'll cherish forever to remind me even in the darkest times I had something to hold onto.
Worship.
I'm so with you on that, the release and cycle coincided with one of the worst periods of my life as well and this album pretty much saved me from completely falling apart. It's cliche to say, but I feel like I owe Sleep Token more than I could ever repay.
@@ghostbirdmike don't forget that it was you who had the strength to hold yourself together while using music to help you through it, stay strong and worship. Oh and you dropped this btw 👑
@@adammarks9582 thank you man, that really means a lot to hear. Keep up being a legend, it's nice to see geninely awesome responses like this in comments sections for a change 🤜🤛
1:13 as soon as that piano kicks in, instant chills
you guys never make a bad song, i swear to sleep.
People are afraid of change, we've become lazy, complacent, terrified of most things that don't conform to the normal. SleepToken are not normal; they are exceptional.
man talk about feelings, hearing vessel cry at the very end hurts more than anything, it just makes it feel more real, god i love sleep token
This song hits different as someone with BPD. Living with that disorder made it hell for me when it came to friendships and relationships
I feel ya there 💖
Really also hits different as someone who loves someone with BPD
Sleep Token: Release a new Song
.
.
.
Brain: Yes to everything.
I feel like this band has tapped into something we haven't seen before. The people who like them from TikTok may have just discovered them and started as Fairweather fans. And then they start to really listen and understand what ST are...and then they truly love them. These lyrics hit straight to the heart delivered with incredible vocals and played by flawless musicians. I can't put it into words, but ST are unlike any other band I've ever heard. These songs are so vulnerable and raw with emotion, and yet we dont get to learn who they really are. We only know them through their songs. Its amazing. ❤ST
I love how Sleep Token have created a community of Worshipers, who appreciate the beauty of their music and seem to have unconditional respect for fellow Worshipers. I don't usually write UA-cam comments, yet, I feel like their channel is somewhere I can belong and express myself.
Worship.
I tried to like all the comments Cos amen. I fkn love it
As you should feel comfortable here, brother. We're all family here in one form or another.
Worship.
Worship? Sounds like a fucking cult but this is.a Great song
Worship.
Agree 100%. I hope you still feel this way after 4 years. :)
Sleep Token and the feeling in their community they have created are the reasons that I am going to go to a concert for the first time after being a complete shut in, afraid of everything and everyone for over 10 years.
I'm scared as hell, but also for the first time in forever excited about something. I hope I can manage to go and not chicken out last second.
I want to experience a ritual (concert) and I feel like the Sleep Token community is a safe community to experience it with. They all seem so full of love and empathy, knowing what it is like to not be okay, wanting to help raise others up and that's just lovely.
Worship.
The fact that every song was released biweekly made this so worth it
Honestly, the hype for the album has been so much greater for me because of that
Ah probably the millionth time I listen to this and still I feel the chills. The song is delicate, yet so raw and brutal. Worship.
"Blood Sport" - Lyrics
I want to roll the numbers
I want to feel my stars align again
Even if the earth breaks like burnt skin
And the heavens just won't open up for me
Would you invite me in again?
Won't you pay for your arrogance?
Won't you show me your weakness?
I made loving you a blood sport
I made loving you a blood sport
I made loving you a blood sport
I can't win
So let's play
And somewhere
Somewhere the atoms stopped fusing
I'm still your favourite regret
You're still my weapon of choosing
And out there
Stuck in a quantum pattern
Tangled in what I never said
You say it doesn't matter
I want to be forgiven
I want to choke in chunks of my own sins
Even if the sky cracks in the morning
And the heavens just won't open up for me
Would you invite me again?
Let me pay for my arrogance?
Won't you show me your weakness?
I made loving you a blood sport
I made loving you a blood sport
I made loving you a blood sport
I can't win
I made loving you a blood sport
I made loving you a blood sport
I made loving you a blood sport
I can't win
And somewhere
Somewhere the atoms stopped fusing
I'm still your favourite regret
You're still my weapon of choosing
And out there
Stuck in a quantum pattern
Tangled in what I never said
You say it doesn't matter
Thank you 🙏
Thank you.
Thank you, my first song of their's.
“Tangled in what I never said“ damn
"I'm still your favorite regret, you're still my weapon of choosing"
This hits hard 💔
This song gives me serious goosebumps. Hits u right in the feels.
Like a semi hitting you straight on at 100 mph 🤧🤍
I'm amazed that there isn't a lot of views on this song. Definitely one of my favorite songs by Sleep Token. 🖤
Aww. I wanna give him a hug.
Rarely does an artist come along and transcend music and art to something higher, something greater. Sleep Token has elevated art to a level that is nearly unobtainable. Thank you for this gift. Worship.
I wish I could sit down and talk to Vessel, ask him who this is about. Such deep emotions. 😢 Love you, Ves! Don’t be sad. 🖤
I'm kind of sad it'is all over.. Back in the summer I was waiting every other Thursday for you to release a new song and I was listening to it until the next release. I was working everyday so your songs helped me a lot to go through all the stuff I had to do. Blood sport is the perfect ending for the album, thank you so much!!
@@robjobse8860 Ive been waiting on them since Higher or Dark Signs, I dont remember. The album is like a cycle or a story which focuses on Vessel's deep and darker emotions and his longing to be together with someone. It starts off with falling in love with someone, going through the initial stages of being in a relationship, then as the album progresses, Vessel and his lover have disagreements with each other, but they remain together. Towards the end of the album (in Drag Me Under i think), Vessel's partner finally leaves him and in Blood Sport, Vessel wants his partner back; he cannot move on. But at the very end of the song (and the album) it was pointed out to him that by his partner that "it doesnt matter". To me, that signifies that all this doesnt really matter and the cycle finally ends.
At the end of the day, the meaning of each song, the album as a whole, and the relationship of each song to the entirety of the album is all open to interpretation and understandings which is something that I love about this album so much. Vessel lays his heart and emotions out, and it really shows in the songs. Sleep (the ancient deity that they believe in) conjures emotions and feelings withing Vessel, and in turn, Vessel turns these conjuring into sonic experiences that we can all enjoy. That's why I love this band so much. W O R S H I P
Just found out about Sleep Token a couple days ago, and I'm actually kind of sad that I didn't get to see this album get released. It sounds like a process I would have really enjoyed. Still loving this music though.
@@trzigweid I think they will stick to this releasing strategy with all of their albums, so the next one will most likely be released track by track, too
New album September, can't wait to worship again.
@@icestorm_rb9057 Stop projecting. The lyrics arent meant to be explained by some guy in the UA-cam comments. I could just as easily say that "the 'love' interest is in someone who passed away because I know for a fact who Vessel is and he had his mom pass away" but I wouldn't say that because Id feel like some pompous idiot trying to label another mans art with my anecdotal presuppositions.
I can't believe this is the final one but good God it was worth it. Thanks to everyone who's helped me try and figure out the lyrics for each release. Until we meet again, Worship.
Lyrics;
I want to roll the numbers,
I want to feel my stars align again,
Even if the earth breaks like burnt skin,
And the Heavens just won't open up for me.
Would you invite me in again?
Won't you pay for your arrogance?
Won't you show me your weakness?
I made loving you a Bloodsport,
I made loving you a Bloodsport,
I made loving you a Bloodsport,
I can't win. (×2)
So let's play.
Somewhere, somewhere the atoms stopped fusing,
I'm still your favourite regret,
You're still my weapon of choosing.
And out there,
Stuck in a quantum pattern,
Tangled with what I never said,
You say "It doesn't matter".
I want to be forgiven,
I want to choke up chunks of my own sins,
Even if the sky cracks in mourning,
And the Heavens just won't open up for me.
Would you invite me in again?
Let me pay for my arrogance,
Won't you show me your weakness?
I made loving you a Bloodsport,
I made loving you a Bloodsport,
I made loving you a Bloodsport,
I can't win. (×2)
Somewhere, somewhere the atoms stopped fusing,
I'm still your favourite regret,
You're still my weapon of choosing.
And out there,
Stuck in a quantum pattern,
Tangled with what I never said,
You say "It doesn't matter".
okay i'm probably reading too much into it, like final era or final song of the band?
@@bbygxr33 final song off Sundowning :)
Stuart Knight thank you, i was about to be like no! i just got into them about two months ago!
Sounds like quantum pattern to me
@@TheJimmyRiddler Definitely, "Stuck in the quantum pattern, tangled with what I never said".
Now my soul needs cuddles.
😢 here
Feels like an epilogue that leaves you with a giant hole in your chest. Album's over. I'm not sad. I loved every second of every song. I'm just...numb
This is just too beautiful, you just dont listen you experience it.
The Offering has been my favorite, but I think that this one might even be better, and it really hits in the feels. Congrats on the end of the cycle and the album release tomorrow! It has been a ride!
This is my favorite Sleep Token song... One of my top 5 songs is all time actually. This is ridiculously fantastic... 1:50 is PURE GOOSEBUMPS
Edit: This is my favorite song. Period. Ever.
That part is good to but at 2:22 it hits harder…🥺 but yah it’s my favorite song too.
Worship
I could never decide my favorite band until I found you. Perfection. Worship.
You're genuinely the most underrated band on this planet
A great tribute to sleep
Worship.
Words cannot express what i feel right now.
What a unique experience experiencing the cycle of each song dropping. Really made me appreciate the full album more than any other album I've ever heard, much less each song being absolute perfection.
I can't believe they ended the album with this. I was expecting the heaviest breakdown but instead, he had an actual breakdown at the end and it hits so much harder than anything on the album. Wow. I'm speechless. What an album. Top 3 albums of all time for me without even thinking about it. #worship
unreal song, and marks the end of the best album of the year.
Alessandro Zilio this is only the beginning. WORSHIP.
It’s been awhile since a song moved me to tears 😭 🔥
Not even listened to it yet and I've already liked it. They can't make a bad song.
The cries at the end got us. This might just be the most emotional band and singer we have discovered in years, next to Stellar Circuits.
Check out "Daddy" by Korn...
@@dreadsasho Yeah yeah we all know fuckin Korn dude but he CANT fucking sing lmfao
That cymbal roll then the cry, dear God!
This hits so deep. It makes me want to cry but I can't stop repeating the track.
Absolute perfection.
Life is worth living when we know Sleep Token.
Worship
Play this song at my funeral. Thank you.
How beautiful and breathtaking is this album? Sleep Token really knows how to devastate me, the soulful vocals combined with the many genre's and elements of music, that raw emotion, and the brutal guitars. What an adventure it's been getting these songs every other week, gonna miss that thrill. What a great time it is to be alive and not only listen, but experience this masterpiece, quite literally! I can't say enough to truly express how much this music means to me. I'm so happy that I was on Spotify that one August night of 2018, in the Discover Weekly playlist to find their track Nazareth, and be totally taken away, out this world. Otherwise I probably would have never found Sleep Token. Honestly, what a blessing!WORSHIP. WORSHIP. WORSHIP. ❤😂😊
The Sundowning is Complete! Worship!
I have just found this band and to hear the true heart of this song with him sobbing at the end is all that I need to follow and look forward to seeing them at Aftershock in Oct. Hell yeah!
Sleep Token is empathy given form. It looks dark and confusing from the outside, but pierces even the hardest of souls given the right context.
Sleep Token is Empathy.
Worship
Beautifully said. Worship.
This just gave me inspiration for a scene I'm writing
The line "and the heavens just won't open up for me" reminds me of a line from "Limbo" by Dusk (if you know, you know), "someone in heaven won't open the gate"
this it .... T H E E N D worship ♥️
Been a fan for years now, and I've just got to say... this song is perfection!
This album took me through a rough time in my life my nan passing and stuff been rough but this album really got me through it all. i cant even listen to levitate no more without having a tear for my nan W O R S H I P - music is about connecting and you guys smash it each time! R.I.P Nan never forgotten!
I too lost my nan during this cycle, I feel you.
@@FauxRain Sorry to hear man
The feels are real in this one.
W O R S H I P
This song says exactly what I'm feeling right now. I just broke down in tears.
This album is an experience for sure ❤️🖤 ST is definitely going on my list of favorite bands lol
This has been a journey ill never forget. From the very first song to the last. Ill WORSHIP for life.
"And the heavens just won't open up for MEEHHHH!"
Gets me every time.
Well, it has definitely been a journey, boys. A lot has happened to me throughout the releases and these tracks have helped through it. Thanks Sleep Token, you're definitely my best find of 2019. *WORSHIP*
Just sat in my dining room listening to both albums and didn’t get up once but to wipe the tears off after this song, it gets me every time so glad I found them!!
so... this ended. honestly i'm going to miss this cycle. every 2 weeks was a new experience, a new tune and a new perspective. this album deserves to be one of the best of the year without doubt.
thanks, Sleep Token, and please never, never stop making awesome, breathtaking music like this. you are the musicians we needed but never deserved.
Worship!
When does the album come out?
I'm waiting to spend money with the quickness
@@jessesherman3881 it's out now
This was in my recommended and I can tell you right now, I'm not mad at all, because this is so so far beyond beautiful it's like, just unbelievable!!
Drummer gets me every time.
This is the most beautiful song I have ever heard. 💜
Save the best for the last. Definitely best album of the year. Sleep Token is on another level. I'm crying. Worship.
Blood Sport still gives me chills every time. Worship.
End of cycle of releases. Start of cycle of me listening to the whole album on repeat.
WORSHIP
I love this band but I’m confused by their message,
Are they into blood rituals or is this all a metaphor 😅😬
@@faithelizabethmusic What i can gather from the lyrics (from this particular song as well as their other ones) they speak about intricacies of relationships, extremities of it, along with some songs just worshipping the deity "Sleep".
But no, Not blood rituals i think (^_^;)
This is song is once again, perfection. Album of the year for 2019. It's likely going in to my top 5 albums EVER. Thank you for the music Sleep Token :)
I feel so many different things right now. I'm so happy to finally have a studio version of this song, but I'm honestly sad it's over. Waiting for every other Thursday with everyone in anticipation of a new song just to hear what they had done next.
This album is incredible and I don't think there will ever be anything like it again.
Worship
Same here....
I am so happy to finally have the studio version of this. I know next month when I see them live that it will be a spiritual experience. I might have to fight back some tears when they play this T_T
Hey, at least we got 2 more absolute masterpieces. I cry at Euclid maybe more than this, somehow haha.
I went through the hardest part of my life so far last summer and this album has helped no end
Did you say summer? Same.
Have a nice life, stranger.
@@thecomebackkid1777 you two buddy. I have been through it and spent the whole winter rebuilding, this spring I feel like a caterpillar leaving it's cocoon and life is good.
I've seen people describe this band as "Chris Martin if he grew up listening to Deftones" as well "A Perfect Circle with Stephen Carpenter on guitar", but i'm gonna put my hat in the ring and say that they sound like if The Weeknd sang for Periphery
the 1975 if they grew up listening to sumerian records
@@rhcp357 amazing - ha :D
I also see some EDM influences with Sleep Token
More so Futurebass artists like Seven Lions or Illenium
Yes
if bon iver became a metal band instead
A voz do Vessel, causa um turbilhão de emoções ❤
I cry every time I sing this. Worship eternal ❤️
First - I find Sleep Token for myself a couple of weeks ago, already listen through most of their tracks. Second - I kind of having problems with communication and suicidal thoughts. Despite this shitty situation that I'm currently in, this isn't just music or even art. It is something more.
In the darkness, when almost all is lost, there is something to devote yourself to.
to Worship.
(english is not my native, sorry for possible mistakes)
✌️
I think this will always be my favorite song by them ❤️❤️ Worship❤️❤️
They are honestly one of the greatest bands to have come out in the last few years
Anyone else crying? 😭
Dixie Coil yup. The first few times.
Vessel
Every time I sing this...
Every time. Still.
I can´t possibly put into words how your music makes me feel. All I can say is that im grateful for finding out about you guys.
The Offering is what brought me in, but this one sold me.
Worship
This album is damn near perfection... Worship.
My God this fucking song. Is such a whole of feelings you can’t stop listen. It makes you cry, being happy with your humanity and peace with yourself.
These guys are something else
Heard this song thousand of times, never noticed the sobbing until the end. God damn that hit me so much.
For the longest time I was chasing after a guy that was originally my best friend. We would occasionally hook up and there were times I would seriously think we were going to be together. I literally moved halfway across my home state to be closer to him, giving up a lot. But in the end, he ghosted me and ended up being with a girl he met on TikTok. It’s taken me a long time to get back to myself, and I realize now just how unhealthy the situation was, but there are times I still miss him and wish he’d chosen me first…
This is heavy I can feel it in every breath.
I have full body chills this song is so SO insanely underrated holy hell
Goosebumps...again!! This music resonates somewhere so deeply inside me that it shakes my core. Love you guys, thank you,
Sleep Token adopted the bastard child of my anger and sadness.
What an utter masterpiece...
Just came back from a year ago to say this is still the most beautifully heart breaking song I've ever heard.
Sleep token caught me off guard. For the past few days I haven't been feeling like myself. This helped me and I fell in love with you guys.
Worship
i havent been feeling like myself because I discovered them. I found them 5 days ago. They are currently my favorite band of all time. I dont see that changing anytime soon either. I
@@BullCityCocktails hell yeah bro. How u liking the news songs?
I love you guys. Thank you for this gift.
What a perfect end to an incredible album. I'm gonna miss waiting for a new song every two weeks.
i can´t ask for anything more this year, my life has been better than ever and enjoying every step i took while i listened to sleep token it was all like and endless dream.
WORSHIP
sleep token is a sacred bleeding hole deep into my heart and id be nothing without it. worship!
