LYRICS
I lost myself into the night
And I flew higher
Than I had ever
But I still felt small
I clipped my wings and fell from flight
To open water
And floated farther
Away from myself
And I swam in the wakes of imposters
Just to feel what it's like to pretend
There's no dreams in the waves only monsters
And the monsters are my only friends

They're all that I was
And never could be

Eyes in the dead still water
Tried but it pushed back harder
Cauterized and atrophied
This is my unbecoming
Knives in the backs of martyrs
Lives in the burning fodder
Cauterized and atrophied
This is my unbecoming

You found me drifted out to sea
It's automatic
It's telepathic
You always knew me
And you laugh as I search for a harbor
As you point where your halo had been
But the light in your eyes has been squandered
There's no angel in you in the end

And all that I was
I've left behind me

Eyes in the dead still water
Tried but it pushed back harder
Cauterized and atrophied
This is my unbecoming
Knives in the backs of martyrs
Lives in the burning fodder
Cauterized and atrophied
This is my unbecoming

Now I wait
This metamorphosis
All that is left is the change
Selfish fate
I think you made me this
Under the water I wait

Eyes in the dead still water
Tried but it pushed back harder
Cauterized and atrophied
This is my unbecoming
Knives in the backs of martyrs
Lives in the burning fodder
Cauterized and atrophied
This is my unbecoming

[Calebgoblin]

Both the smoothness and rawness of his voice is astounding, metal screamers would kill for that grit

[Dozeball]

I'm glad to see Dustin is relying more on his gravel growl, instead of attempting to carry a note he knows he couldn't without the help of electronics...It makes it more real and emotional!

[dauntlesswarriorproductions]

Me: Starset can NOT get any better than this!!!
Starset: *releases acoustic songs*
Me: *passes out from exposure to sheer awesomeness*

[BlackCoffeePlanet]

It's so weird how acustic versions have their own charm

[connorpike]

I used to be a fan of STARSET, but after this masterpiece, I’m a whole air conditioner

[selinnazsur]

His singing has become so much better over the years, I love it. Also he got the lyrics right this time! xD

[antonyjitto]

Starset's acoustic versions have a different beauty when compared to their regular songs.

Edit:...How did I end up with 1k+likes?

[cihanalpy]

I left my online lesson instantly to this and it's worth for this

[joeyverliesharen]

This doesn't sound nearly as polished as the studio version, but there's a certain charm to that.

I like it.

[flamefriends]

Unbecoming was the song that got me hooked on Starset and I've been in love for years now. Dustin sounds like he could have used a bit more warming up before this performance, but it's still ok

[HGMatrix]

Brock and Ron's vocals during that bridge was amazing! Of course so was everything else but I wanted to point out how in tune they were. Awesome.

[beauner]

Everyone talking about dustin's beard, meanwhile Ron be lookin like a beautiful wizard 👀

[DyingStar]

Hello person scrolling through the comment section!
You have a best taste in music, have a nice day!

[Queenslayer]

I love Dustin's voice. It's so raw and emotional. I really want to see them live.

[IronRAVENxvx]

Haven't heard any live versions from them since Transmissions was released. It's easy to say they really improved.

[berg]

This came in the right time to make my quarantine better

[LoanRepresentative]

I always wanted a acoustic unbecoming, glad to see it came out like 2 or 3 years after I asked for it :"D

[ToxicSkull]

No effects no nothing and he sounds almost exactly like the studio version!

Amazing

[danmew]

The way he transitions from heavy to soft is unique in its own. I’m not saying he has the best singing voice ever, but his is very eclectic and powerful. He definitely is one of the best songwriters ever though. I’ve never felt a connection and transcendence through music as I did with Transmissions and Vessels
