Oh, Sleeper - Decimation & Burial (Lyric Video)

___

The blind don't rely on the light, they just fight
I curse my sight

Embrace the cost
Welcome to the war

Strike deep or don't strike at all
Draw full or don't draw at all
If you’re to lead
Lead point or don't lead at all
We're destined to die
So make worthy your fall

The sun's abated
Light up the torches
Expect nothing to fuel your lamp
Nothing here wishes you another breath

Into the fray you watched me charge on
I cleared the way while you waded in thought
Your feet stuck sinking prints in the floor
What the hell were you waiting for?

The blind don't rely on the light, they just fight
I dug this bed, I'll lay down my head
Let my axe put me down instead
‘Cause they just can't kill what's already dead
Immortality belongs to the dead

You just can’t kill what’s already dead
The fame all goes to the claimer of the head

You just can’t kill what’s already dead

Deserters all
Lead point or don't lead at all
You're all gonna die
Make worthy your fall
Make worthy your fall

That deep, bellowed scream that smoothly slides into a high octave shriek at 0:42 is so beautiful. I listen to metal music daily and it’s been a long time since I’ve heard something and go “hold up a minute. That was legit sick.”

[shot]

"lead point or dont lead at all" damn. i love how metal music touches parts of my soul i had forgotten about lmao

[braydenpartridge]

Been a long time since I've heard Oh, Sleeper

[rdennis]

lyrics are very strong. Oh, Sleeper is back!

[brandonjmorris]

Mr Kinard's screams are insane. They've aged like fine Bourbon.

Oh my godd... This gave me the chills and this awe of gods beautiful wrath and love and how the unseen is the key to a true relationship with christ. Cursing ournsight. Living by faith.

We already died baby! We died with christ. All ego and sin is gone. You cant kill whats already dead.

[HailkidGames]

Wow! Awesome to see these guys back with Solid State. Would love to see Inhale Exhale return too. Loved their music!

[zac]

Honestly, such a change of pace song that i am not used to, from a person that is 31 that grew up with all their other songs and lyrics.
This "hits" heavier than most their other songs in a few different senses.

It's legit.
it shows a transitioning of emotions.. a story. a life. or lives..The depiction will be fully in the eyes of the beholder.
Mad fucking respect for this song.
Its DAMN good.
Also think this song, and fissure combined... but as a long song. yea. xD

[peterloveson]

Usually newer albums are iffy but the boys have hit the ball outta the park here. Salute to you!!

[JZirn]

Love these lyrics. Didn’t realized I needed a lyric video for this song until now.

[truth]

Damn, Micah's vocals have never sounded so good!!!

[jackhammer]

This song is one of my new favorites in the genre. Deserters all!

[Emita]

literally been waiting like 6 years for them to release new music

[Sosasoundstn]

Oddly, getting some hush yael vibes here. What a welcome vibe

[karlcrouse]

Missed these guys so much, damn they get things going!! Especially at 2:40

[natedavies]

Love the track, I'm just surprised Solid State didn't throw an epilepsy warning up first.
It's not exactly the kind of video I'd want my friend Chris to watch, as much as he used to dig these guys.

[totchichat]

I’m so glad you guys are back with such a heavy new song!

[randomuserame]

Summer 2019 huh.... some divine timing for a message like this.

[stephenkyrie]
