This song is for everybody who ever dealt with toxicity in a relationship and got told "if you love me, you'll understand and work through this with me". That's the "debt". Needed this song 13 years ago badly. Lol
Yeah we all pretty much feeling that! Keep ascending!
Was that the first scream we’ve heard?
*waits patiently for Gods* 😁
the fire" for those who wait?
It was very well timed!
Scarlet and Ultraviolet are on opposite ends of the visible light spectrum. I interpret that as they have vastly different needs, wants and perception. As you mentioned the scheme continues with the silence/melody line. Great videos, guys!
Fun little connection here - phosphorescence is the phenomenon where a substance absorbs light of shorter wavelengths (damaging to us) and re-emits it at a longer wavelength (safe for us). In this instance, absorption of ultraviolet light being re-emitted as visible light, like scarlet.
So, Vessel dreams in phosphorescence - I've thought this could be a reference to how he absorbs the toxicity from Sleep (ultraviolet) and turn it into something beautiful and visible (a specific color like scarlet). Idk, just random thoughts 😂
@@earthscorcher beat me to it
@thekrausey I can see this for sure!
@earthscorcher that was fire!!!🔥
Or just lamens terms, seeing scarlet shows the problems anyone can see in front of them. Wherein ultraviolet takes more effort to find things that nobody else sees. Basically bringing up old problems that were supposedly wiped clean.
Can't wait for you all to check out II playing his offerings. Dude is God tier.
I've already seen Drumeo... It was definitely insane!
i really enjoy watching the 2 of you listen to, react to and break down what the songs mean to you. I appreciate that how you guys hear and interpret stuff isn't always the same as me, but that is the awesomeness of art and how its different for everyone
We appreciate that a lot! Let's ride together and ascend together!
Its always a great day to Worship ❤
No doubt!
“The debt that I owe” your understanding seems right. You’re expecting and endless amount of arguments and flooding me with guilt from a mistake I made a long time ago. I’ve built my trust back but it’s never enough for you.
Perhaps he was the one who ended it....
Yep! Expectations have tripped humanity up for too damn long
Scarlet and ultraviolet are nearly opposite ends of the electromagnetic spectrum, with red being the first visible color and ultraviolet being just beyond the last visible color (violet). Same spectrum, opposite ends. Just like she needs the melody and he only needs the silence.
Actually... I don't think electromagnetic spectrum is the right spectrum here.
“Melody” may be that she needs a direction to follow, while his “silence” is his ability to carve his own path. It may also explain why he is the “fire” to her “dry as bone” or the “danger” to her “long way from home”, because he may try to push her past her comfort zone and disappoint/hurt himself when she cannot abandon her safety for him (“Most days you reach for safety. Remain calm, forget that you know me”). Upon the first few listen throughs it might feel like Vessel is laying the blame on the other person or being in this scenario, but the more I listen the more I hear and see the self loathing and self blame.
I really like that! I can see that!
I think he is saying I'm giving you more than is required to make up for my mistakes. I think his effort is surpassing what would be considered matched in what he owes in his mistakes. He is trying and trying and still isn't enough.
It never feels like enough...
I'm pretty sure that this song is from the opposite POV of most of the other songs. Most songs portray a one sided relationship between a devotee and an abuser, whereas this song tries to frame them as equals and both instigating the drama and toxicity. Also, "I am granting you more than the debt that I owe" is an iconic gaslighting line. She's giving him more than he deserves, she's not abusing him, he's abusing her time.
Also, I have a theory that only Sleep screams, never Vessel, if you know what I mean.
Damn! I havent seen this one in that light...
I interpret the i look for scarlet, and you look for ultraviolet and i look for fresh blood scarlet red blood while you look at the old hidden past dried blood thats revealed in the ultraviolet
I get to that same conclusion as well! I see the opposites argument too though... I love them both!
My interpretation:
Levitate “ we imitate a story of perfect days, a ballad we fabricate”
Here he says, “we are exhausted by all this pretending”
Scarlet is the important things like the heart and she’s looking at everything but that.
The melody is the arguing and he just wants peace. He’s a danger because he’s a fire and she’s dry as bone and she doesn’t want to commit so she keeps him at a distance.
In a song by his previous band he says she’s a legion but a beautiful passenger alone.
Here he says you are one among many but you’re now on your own.
This to me it’s the different substance usage personalities vs being sober. That’s also what I believe he means by only remembering when she’s alone or sober.
Granting you more than the debt that I owe to me means I owe you nothing and I’m giving you everything
They both feed off the toxicity
Oh yeah can see that!!
I've BEEN in this relationship. This song just guts me, and it touches a pit of anger that's deep in my chest. Two wrongs don't make a right. There's no forgiveness even with over the top effort, fighting for a love that you both thought existed but it was nothing but ideals. Expectations from false perspectives. Bending to the extremes of the others beliefs to be met by ridicul from both sides, yet holding on to the death of each others peace of mind,to scream at the end " I owe you my loss of self and hatred"
Oh for sure!!! This is great!
This song is from the perspective of sleep, which adds a whole new level of to it when you listen to the lyrics though that lens.
Oh for sure! 🤯
Love the breakdown !
Thanks for watching!
I've been through this before.
When i'm alone, I think about things. Alone =lonely.
So when i'm alone, I realize that he's granting me more than any debt he would owe to me. Maybe he's done stuff to me, and i've put him through hell for the things he's done , but he still goes above and beyond what he needs to, to get me back. Make sense? Like he may have done me wrong or pissed me off so I made him do things to make up for it, but it probably wasn't even that bad, and he's showing me that he'll do so much for those things he did, just o get me back with him.
Makes perfect sense! I lived that way for a long time...
This is my favorite ST song.
It's growing on me more and more!
THE MOST UNDERRATED SONG EVER!!!!!!!
Gotta be a Poppy song! LOL
Scarlet & Ultraviolet - opposite ends of the spectrum if you're talking about infrared, but scarlet isn't even a light frequency so it's even more disconnected
Why isn't scarlet a light frequency?
23:00 I like to think that him doing that breakdown of “The debt that I owe.” Is him realizing that it isn’t what he think it is and that’s why he gets pissed and starts screaming.
Facts!!
Love this song live...that ending always blows me away..Gods will melt your face off! Great reaction as always guys 👍🏻🫶🏼
Well you were right!! 🔥
Reset my patient violence along both lines of a pathway higher
We were struggling! lol
This one is my favorite of their's. I think anyone who's experienced a toxic relationship can relate to, "You can only remember when you're alone that I'm granting you more than the debt that I owe."
Also scarlet and ultraviolet are on opposite ends of the light spectrum ❤
Bruh you're a Deadshot with that one! Funny thing was I was thinking about that line yesterday and made the connection that the 2 lines went together!! I didnt catch it in the video... UGH!
Vessels ex and him sang together and he played piano which gave her the melody to begin singing. “You need the melody I only need the silence”
You do realise that she sometimes played piano, and he sometimes played guitar?
I personally don’t think Vessels lyrics have anything to do with Gemma
@@MrEcarlson462you could cut their tension with a knife lol. I believe there’s him, her and them all through this music. There’s also a reason he calls back to the band and certain lyrics in ST songs. Just my opinion 🖤
This discussion though!!
I definitely think they also use the music to express the emotion as well, not just the lyrics. The end is just pure anger.
Facts!! Thanks for watching!
I've always viewed this song from Sleep's point of view. Sleep needs the silence, Vessel needs the melody.
That would also be fitting! Thanks for being a great sub!
What's up gentlemen? I am enjoying watching you guys Sleep Token journey.
You have to remember that some songs are vessel talking to her, the goddess of Sleep. Some of the songs are her talking to vessel. Some of them are the two of them talking back and forth. I believe that this is either her talking to vessel or them talking back and forth. Something to think about. Enjoy!
I guess I jumped the gun on that comment because y'all are now discussing exactly what I said. My bad.
Hey at least you kept watching! Much love!
That ending just can’t resist the violence
Forreal! Nasty
Something to consider: The song is from “Sleep’s” point of view
I'm unclear if you know the Backstory of the group… their schtick is they worship/ are the mouthpiece of an Eldritch God named Sleep.
Yes we are aware of the lore behind the band. We definitely have it as a factor but we are letting the music direct us to the lore if that makes sense
Y’all gotta watch the drumeo video of II their drummer he talks about his style and drums some songs!!
Yeah I watched it a while back, but i may need to show my son
You should see II drumming on the drumeo version of the song he adds so many more fills 🔥🔥🔥
Oh I have!! Straight fire!!!
So this being the 5th song from the album if we take a linear path we can see Higher as Vessel trying to give into Sleep but in The Love You Want, Sleep has stepped away from Vessel and he's trying to get her back and ignite her fire again within him and in Ascensionism he says screw it, I'll become higher with or without you and I'll use the same tactics as you used on me. Also I've persevere "the debt that I owe" is that he had to give up himself to bring Sleep into this physical world so she can be worshipped, see auqa regia "and these days I'm a circuit board, integrated hardware you can not afford." But this is only I'm crazy thumbtack theory lol
Oh wow! That's actually pretty crazy
Check out II on the Drumeo channel. He is an amazing drummer. Love this video and your channel. Thanks
I actually watched it before I even started this channel... Dude is just insane!
7:24 When you owe someone something, it’s possible to do extra that has nothing to do with the debt.
Example: A woman’s husband owes her a car after he accidentally totals her car. In addition to trying to get her a new car he’s giving her extra gifts, extra love, extra attention. Technically all that is unrelated to actually getting her a new car but he’s still trying to use it in addition to the debt.
Also, it could just be he’s paying back more than the debt is worth.
Yeah i see where you went there... I can definitely agree with that on a personal level
Brothers?........yes.
💯
I also have a request I've allowed, listen to ultraviolent and ultraviolent [she sang] by crywolf. Both beautiful tracks to just fall into and listen
Adding that to the list
I think that Scarlett and UltraViolet means that they are in the same spectrum but opposite ends, with different color tones. So they want the same things in life, but each person is going towards the relationship differently.
Oh thats some education right here!! Love this!
as much as this hurts me to say..dontt smother the child..........dad? chill?
what you mean??? 😅
@@UncleTrebor i apoligize...sometimes i drink too much and comment . I literally have no answer. Love you fellas content still

@@UncleTrebor the fact that you even considered being nice to me after such a comment...Speaks volumes on how awesome you are as a person. Hugs ....if i wasnt poor as a sumbitch...id gladly donate
