Hello my friends.. It’s been a minute, I know. Sorry. The truth is I have really not been okay. Life has been incredibly rough for a while and in some regards things are worse than ever. It was however, so important for me to finish this project and share it with you all. I started putting together the first ideas for this video while laying in a hospital bed. DYWTYLM had just been released and I remember listening to the song while staring up at the ceiling of this small sterile room, knowing a spark had been lit. Some time later, after the release of the full album, I isolated myself in a little house in the countryside. That weekend I wrote about 80% of the script. The time between then and now was bad.. To say the least. it really took everything out of me to finish it. But it’s here and I’m so happy and excited to finally share it with you all. I have to give a massive shoutout to Alex, who without hesitation agreed to help me when my health issues were slowing everything to a crawl. He was so patient and attentive to my directions and visions throughout the whole recording process and it’s safe to say he helped save the project. Please make sure to show him some love in the comments. I want to give a very very big shout out to the Sleep Token Discord. You have offered me so much love and support during the darkest hours. I’m forever grateful. Thank you. I also want to thank all of you for watching and supporting my channel. I absolutely never expected it to grow to becoming the largest ST fan channel on RUclips. You are amazing. Thank you!! Finally I want to ask you all for a favor. I never once asked for a like, follow or anything.. But I will ask you for something this one time. - Please share this video in all the ST fan spheres and with your ST friends! I’m not asking this because I want attention or exposure for myself. I am at peace with the fact that this long format video won’t perform very well number wise. I am asking because of the message in the video. If I can just reach one person that needs to hear it, It will all have been worth all the time and effort. I really hope you all like the video and I’m anxious to hear what you think. And once again.. From the bottom of my heart. Thank you all
Thank you for this beautiful video l, I truly hope you and anyone else struggling learn to heal and keep having hope. Thank you again and to Alex and to sleep token.
Luke, I’m sorry for the hardships you’ve been through whatever they may be. Thank you AND ALEX for taking the time to put out one last video for your channel. For now, perhaps. Please take care of yourself and until next time 💙
This video made me realize I had a lot of buried trauma and torment that was just waiting to burst. I don't think I've ever had such a visceral reaction like that to any other video. I'm actually still weeping as I'm typing this out... Thank you so much for producing this, Luke. It helped kickstart a healing process I never realized I needed, and made me realize why I'm so obsessed with this masterpiece of a band. And take care of yourself, Luke. We may all be strangers online, but I haven't felt a connection to any other community as this one. If you have no more supporters, it's because I'm no longer on this plane of existence. And I already know you have over 5,000 people here like me that are willing to be there for you. No matter what you're going through, you aren't alone, and you are appreciated. See you around💙
"You see, your Return to Eden was never about bringing back the past, but about loosening yourself from the vines that held you back from going into your future." What a beautiful way to explain this concept, bravo!
That mine made me burst into tears. I have gone through a lot with my mental health. Years of undiagnosed ocd and bipolar, horrible intrusive thoughts, broken family and more. That comment hit deep because I am healing now and learning how to live.
That was my first song, I've plunged head first into an ocean of amazing songs like I've been a fan since the beginning. I've only been listening to them a month and I've already booked tickets. They'll stay with me forever
@@Atlanticalkaline I'm the same way. I I haven't bought a new band t-shirt or anything for a band that I've liked and probably almost 5 years. I just got a hoodie and five shirts. There's just something magical about this band honestly right?
Euclid hurt me more than anything musically I have ever experienced. I don't normally feel emotion, but Euclid broke me. It unearthed things I had buried, murdered, ignored. It genuinely feels like Vessel is calling out to you, and "I must be someone new", killed me. You aren't your past, you aren't your trauma, you're much more, because of the pain. "The night belongs to you" felt like me personally letting go. I refuse to be in pain and despair anymore. I've always been a huge music person, but Sleeptoken breaks through all of your barriers and really SPEAKS to you. Unbelievable.
I feel this in my soul. Everytime Euclid begins to play, it's like my heart lights on fire and is beaming out of me. I feel SO MUCH emotion.. but in the best way. Sadness, longing, grief, joy, anger, regret, and peace. I'm so happy that this song has a similar effect on others. I've never had a song pull so much raw emotion out of me.. every time it plays. 🫶🖤
"I must be someone new" is just such a huge line for a lot of people. Either moving past pain, trauma, or guilt, or literally even becoming a new person. As someone who learned about sleep token during my transitioning Euclid is probably the most important song to me ever.
Okay so... I'm crying right now. Because for a long time I hadn't realized why I like sleep token so much. But now I see that... I found myself in Vessel and his songs. I felt and still feel understood with each line. Vessel claims he's not capable of saving anyone, but he has no idea how much he has changed me. Made me realize things about myself, awaken. I'm so happy that I fount this incredible band... WORSHIP
This right here. I knew I connected with the music and it made me feel things I hadn't felt in such a long time, but I never fully understood why it hit me so hard until now. I was sobbing through the whole thing because I could've written Vessel's story myself (I'm sure the circumstances are vastly different and what we experienced is not at all the same). The raw emotions, the depression, the pain, trying to reclaim something I'll never have again, it's all there. He may say he isn't capable of saving anyone, but he saved me. And I'm glad he's saving others, too,.
The change from "The Night Does Not Belong to God" appearing for the first time in their music when Vessel dedicates it to the person he loves, to the full circle moment where he sings "The Night Belongs To You" to himself at the end of "Euclid" is nothing short of music and songwriting genius. It made me cry the first time I heard it and still makes me cry today. The reclamation of his narrative and identity is one of the most beautiful journeys in music history.
I haven’t been attached to a singer telling his truth since Chester Bennington. I know about trauma. Chester never hid his pain. Vessel keep going we are all here for you.
I have been thinking this too! Linking Park was the band I listen too when I was first diagnosed with Depression, and now Sleep Token is getting me through my PTSD
Who knew they would someday open for linkin park. LP now with Emily is in my opinion a good representation of the fact that things will never be the same again, but life goes on and it can be great again. Maybe Sleep token will get at the same point some day
sitting here, typing this while ugly crying. This band is more than just a band, theyre the reason i'm starting to process m trauma and continue healing mentally. this band has genuinely pulled me from the pits of depression and C-PTSD and helped me find a new meaning to life. Never cried this hard to Euclid ever. *Worship.*
Hey Luke, Thank you so much for your kind words :) It was truly an honor to be a part of this amazing project, especially knowing the personal journey you went through to bring it to life. Your resilience and dedication are incredibly inspiring! I'm so glad I could help in any small way to make your vision a reality, and I'm here if you need anything, just drop me a line and I'll be more than happy to help :) To all ST fans - Luke has poured his heart and soul into this video, and it's a testament to his passion and strength. What an incredible video he has put out! Please share with your friends and in all the Sleep Token communities to help spread its powerful message. Luke, take care of yourself and know that we're all here supporting you. Your work means so much to us, and we're grateful for everything you do. Stay strong, my friend! Best, Alex Tamulis
It shows, all the work is totally worth it.. I mean what you've out together for us is a journey in a more easily understood way, deepening the appreciation. Thank you for making it for us all to enjoy. I'd say that this video us like a song in its own right.
I never thought that understanding someone else's pain and healing process would make me understand my own. I had never felt what I felt when I heard "The night belongs to you", a liberating feeling in some way. After finding Sleep Token, after wanting to understand and learn, hope returned to me, the desire to fight back, to seek help, to help myself. For a long time I had felt somewhat hollow, for not being able to cry when I felt I needed to, but listening to the final part of this video made me feel again like that emotional and sensitive teenager that I once was. Thank you.
I never really understood why, upon hearing Sleep Token for the first time yesterday, I felt a strong connection with this band. It is scarily accurate to what I have been going through the past 10 years.
I’m just sat here sobbing at the end of that. Euclid means more to me than I can articulate. This band saved me in more ways than I can express. Love your videos. Thank you for this.
I've always been quite emotional. Most people call me a crybaby. But I feel things deeply. I cannot separate myself from the pain of others. When I first heard Sleep Token, I cried for weeks. I have never been like this with a band before. I didn't understand why it affected me so much. But I've realized that Vessel represents humanity to its core. And it's incredibly beautiful how he has the ability to write songs about things we all feel at some point. He is just like me. He *feels* things deeply, just as I do. Just as we all do.
I've never understood how empathy became a weakness, I can care about you, and if you cross a line punch you in the face..it doesn't make me "manly" or some "tough guy"", I just understand how to navigate my emotions and react accordingly
Thank you for this video. I don’t like when people say “it’s just music. It’s all a gimmick. There is no deeper meaning. You read too far into it” etc. because even if Vessel didn’t actually go thru trauma, the message is deeper than that. It’s not JUST music, it’s not JUST words. Vessel put so much thought and work into these albums and I’m in awe every time I listen to an album or even a song. I have never had a band or artist effect my soul until Sleep Token. The message is life. It’s what people go thru daily. I hope you’re finding peace and healing. This was a beautiful video and message. I hope you get well soon 🙏🏻🖤
i don’t believe i’m the only one to say this, but sleep token has been and probably always will be the one band that has helped me grow by listening and embracing their songs.
Sleep Token is more than music. They are art! I discovered this band after a damaging emotional experience. I was scared of my own emotions and didn't know how to feel them. I heard one song and started my journey. What a journey it had been. They gave me the ability to feel and let my emotions flow. It didn't scare me any more. It let me go through everything. The trilogy absolutely broke me. I was able to be at the lowest of lows and be ok with it. This band saved my life and be able to accept and release everything. I still feel how I did that day that I broke. They have made me learn and not go to far into the deep. They will always be in my soul. Thankyou Sleep Token. All tho I am still damaged, I am not afraid any more!
casually sits down to watch this video after finally a good day at work, feelin good, proceeds to make it to the end of the video where i am stricken with emotion. good emotion. man i loved that ending.
Euclid is a masterpiece and the epitome of the process of letting go ❤ There are no words to express what this song is doing/has done for me/to me ~ NONE. I thank God for blessing Vessel with his experiences so he can express such beautiful poetry and that he found the strength and courage to stay. He IS Divinely guided! I'm not crying (crying) ❤
I discovered sleep token , Sundowning, just before i went through a extremely rough period in my life. Found a profound connection to the music. This Place Will Become Your Tomb; felt like the sound track to my life, it came out just as i was experiencing worst time of my life. This band will forever hold a special place in my heart.
Just another person crying because this video explained everything to me as far as why I can't stop listening to this band and why i need to keep hearing this music. Beautifully put and eloquent video truly in Sleep Token fashion. Thank you for another step towards hope.
I just found Sleep Token. I've been broken musically and emotionally since Chester died. Now that I've found you guys i feel whole again, musically, emotionally, and now spiritually. 🙏🏻
The pummeling breakdown outro of the song TMBTE coupled with its presentation of “I have traveled far beyond the path of reason” absolutely crushed / crushes me every single time I hear it.
I always thought that 'are you really okay' was sleep singing to him, being awoken by his suicide attempt and thats what began their toxic love affair. But hearing it explained in a different way that vessel is actually trying to help himself makes it a lot less depressing. The song itself saved my life, hearing vessel telling me not to hurt myself again when i had planned to end it all that day changed everything for me. So thank you for other explanations and for adding hope to the sadness. 🖤
Glad you're still with us (also to you, Luke!) 💜 On those days where you can't imagine seeing the next, I hope you'll remember the sheer stubbornness and strength that got you from the last day to your present one. Each day you experience is a gift to *yourself* above anything else. Please remember that you are worth every second of that gift you give yourself. Love and peace to you.
@EmoMona3 alot of his lyrics point towards either an accident or suicide attempt, lots of people have noticed large scars on his arms also which could be either an attempt or accident.
I discovered Sleep Token through TikTok when all those reaction videos for The Summoning were trending. I liked the song so headed to RUclips to check out more of their songs. Some random recommendations popped up and I kept clicking. It was Alkaline that hooked me. I listened to the entire discography from beginning to end by the time TMBTE album dropped. I adore this group in such a way I've rarely done before. They just get me in the feels and make me smile and cry. I'm forever grateful I found them. Worship
So, seeing this video has ignighted a spark in me i haven't felt in awhile. I'm usually a pretty reserved person and my feelings have never been something I could convey, but seeing this made all the strings of why i love Sleep Token connect. I want to heal from the pain that has been inflicted on me. I met someone around ten years ago, we shared a birthday, similar hobbies and interests, but the time wasn't right. We both moved on from eachother, found our own bumpy way, with plenty of ups and downs for both of us. About a year ago, on out birthday we started talking again and we ended up trying again. It was by far the highest point in my life, sharing moments with her, helping recover from our issues from parents to ex's, it felt good, it felt right. She had problems with having kids in the past and I i always wanted to be a dad, so we figured we would try and have a kid together. After trying for awhile she began to grow cold and distant, we went from living together to seeihg each other once or twice a week. She finally reached out and said we needed to talk and my heart sank, the only thought in my head was that it had happened again, instead of mourning, i had to grieve when she ended things between us. Me and her both loved Sleep Token, both discovering them shortly after we got back together, her favorite song was DYWTYLM, once the full release of Take me back to Eden was out, we were over. The only person i wanted to share the album with and bond over it didn't want to see my face again. I spent a few months going through the motions, barley existing and finding myself in the same rut that many have felt before. I lost my job, family members who didn't understand what was going on, and a group of friends that i met through her. Ive been dragging myself from day to day with her constantly in my mind, in my dreams and I was scared I'd get to the point that I've found myself at so many times where i didnt wish to keep going, but I got a second chance. For my birthday i got to see sleep token live and in combination with this video, i feel that i can truly start moving on. To those who took the time reading this, thank you. This community has opened my eyes and i feel more connected than i ever have before. I will be better, so that when i reach my Eden, i will be in the right mindset to claim it. For all of those that are at the bottom, know that the only way to go from here is up.
Thank you for taking the time to share your story. Sometimes the mere act of writing or speaking the things that trouble us, can lighten the burden a little and help us understand everything better. You are on the right path. Slowly work on building yourself up and be patient.. Trust the process. You will get there. I wish you all the best. Take care 🖤
I am so emotional after watching this… I did cry. I’ve gone through so much in just the past year and their music, Vessel’s lyrics, have validated me so much. All the grief, trauma, regret, anger, and loneliness I’ve felt after my former left me… is unexplainable. However, their music brings me that spark of hope, just like you said. They’ve ignited something in me, something feral, untamed, yet beautifully broken. Gives a whole new meaning to my favorite phrase: You’re Gonna Watch Me Ascend. You did an absolutely incredible job with this video. Thank you so much for your work and dedication!! 🫶🏻🙏🏻 Worship 🖤
I lost my dad to a car accident 5 days after my 18th birthday. No one understands the grief of losing a parent until it happens to them, especially in a way I wasn’t able to say goodbye to him. No words can explain how these albums make you feel on a deep level after experiencing trauma. It is crazy that Vessel can put into words what others cannot. Thank you so much for this piece, this is truly amazing. 🖤
I am extremely new to Sleep Token. I had heard of them over a year ago. I listened but their music didn't catch me up. I know now it was that I wasn't ready to receive it. I have grown a little since then. Life is ever changing and in my 60 years the changes go from the highest highs to the very bottom of the pit. I have experienced unimaginable emotional, physical and psychological trauma. I would like to commend you for a wonderful and enlightening video. I appreciate your interpretation of Sleep Token. And I am thankful and grateful that you and Vessel have shared so much with me. It is changing me in so many ways. I wish you healing and love always.
This was so incredibly beautiful and genuinely touched my soul. I am dealing with escaping after almost 12 years of narcissistic abuse. I found Sleep Token shortly before I escaped and since then their music, their story, the fan base and their stories has given me so much hope. Given me so much strength to survive something I honestly thought I couldn't. I know it may be a cliche at this point but this band, the fans... Have genuinely saved my life. I could never express enough words to how grateful I am for that. Time and time again i've been pulled back from what felt like drowning just by hearing a song or reading someone's story in the comments. Truly, together as fans, we have the best support system. I love you all so much and will eternally be grateful, to both the band and fans, for how you've changed my life. You are so, so very loved. Your light shines in the darkest of places, never forget that. ♥
Discovered this beautiful band 4 months ago and they have completely changed my life. I live and breathe Vessels words awake and in my dreams. They are a true gift to humanity and I’m grateful to be alive during their time. Worship. ❤
Thanks for your video. Amazing the way you connect with the art. It's deep. I wanna tell something. Now I'm an almost happy person, with some bad days which is normal. I'm a licensed psychologist myself. But I had a really hard past. I've suffered from Anorexia, self harm and major depression in my adolescence and early 20's. I've suffered from violence and bullying on my childhood. I wanted to leave this world many times. Then I felt better until my father died after battling cancer for years. Then I was broken and... top note, I started a relationship with a " Nice guy" who really was a covert psychopath. So I've been throught a HUGE amount of pain in my life. But I'm still here ❤ I'm doing therapy now, but I was not able to open the broken and saddest parts of myself. A gym friend showed me Sleep Token and instantly fell in love with the vocals. Then I connected with the art in a deeper level and was like an emotional catalyst. I worked in my own therapy with ST music throught a Lot of sessions. Vessel put words when I couldn't speak. Now the pain is gone. I'M ETERNALLY THANKFULL FOR THIS ART, AND THIS BEAUTIFUL COMMUNITY. WORSHIP ❤
I’m new to this band and the first song I ever heard was rain. It opened me up to all the albums I ended up exploring thereafter. I’ve endured trauma since I was a child and hearing his lyrics and raw emotions caused my own emotions and thoughts that I have buried or fought to ignore to resurface cause I had no knowledge of how to heal them and move on in life. A lot of this baggage I’m carrying is slowly melting away because I found an outlet to let me feel these emotions out. I have a history of self harm so when he describes his own struggles and how he feels lost is the same things I felt when that was my outlet to numb my pain. I turned to hiking and gravitated back to nature and it’s healed me up to a point that can only go so far. ST is another level of acknowledging and understanding and accepting and it’s healing the pain I can never speak of because it’s too painful. I’m so grateful for this band and this courageous person to put his own emotions and thoughts into these albums because people are afraid to feel, afraid to reach out and are dismissed for how they feel which ends up being another suicidal story. My life could have ended so many times and I’m glad I fought with each episode because now I have someone to relate to in these songs. I’m so grateful for Sleep Token.
I recently started listening to Sleep Token only within the past six months or so. I love how dynamic their music is, how they both defy and blend genres and the mystery of the band itself is entertaining to think about. Through more and more listens, I feel increasingly drawn to them. The combination of musicality and lyricism both envelopes me in a cocoon of self-reflection and has me just singing at the top of my lungs in the car. In the past two months, I have had really intense therapy sessions. A lot as come up from my past, my confusion about my present and concerns for the future. The beauty of any artform is our individual interpretations, and with Sleep Token's music, I've been able to hear myself for maybe the first time ever. The music reaches down deep and grabs hold, pulling the plug stopping up my emotional system. Euclid in particular brings tears to my eyes while slapping a smile on my face. I never thought musical analysis would leave me in puddle, but you just made that happen. Thank you for this video and your insight. I wish everyone reading love and light.💙
Coming into focus for me as someone who first found Sleep Token's music beyond incredible. But following on the amazement heels was a hunger for a better understanding. As the albums began to unfold in my life, an uncanny irony also set in, creating a very personal connection to their story that they would unfurl album by album. I really appreciate your perspectives and how on point you are for me, at least. A true pleasure to watch, thanks for sharing.
I can't express how beautiful this video really is. I bawled my eyes out singing along to Euclid at the end. I can't help but thank you for the insight you have given me regarding their music and breaking it down, because it has only made my love for ST so much more rooted. I remember when I first listened to them back when The Summoning blew up, and for the first time, I dug into an artist's discography beyond one song and I do not regret it one bit. Aqua Regia is the one that completely enveloped me in, but when I first heard Telomeres and Gods, I had even more reason to resonate with them. Not entirely understanding that each album represented a stage of trauma and healing, I ended up finding myself in it so quickly. Within every lyric and vein running throughout their music. I began to heal and navigate feelings within me that I couldn't locate or describe before and the reassurance it gave me is immeasurable. But having seen this video and you explaining everything has made this art so much more sentimental for me. And that, I appreciate you for. I hope things start lightening up for you and you recover quickly. You are incredible and I appreciate your work so much. - Regia
Thank you so much for this video! ST songs always make me feel a range of emotions. I don't think we're all innocent people, we've been hurt and have hurt others. But their haunting lyrics find resonance in all of the fans. And this video did the same! Maybe it's the depth of consept behind the albums, maybe it's the message of hope and love, but it's almost 3 am and I'm crying in my pillow. Wether because I'm sad or because I'm happy, I don't know. But I definitely feel lighter. So thank you!
This is a truly superb summary on the meaning of the songs. They're very very deep - thanks for this. I think many of us can relate to the pain depicted in their songs
i have a better understanding of why i'm so hooked on their music now, i see myself, i feel understood, i don't feel alone anymore, 21:14 i needed this today, thank you
I got to see Sleep Token earlier this year and i can truly and honestly say that my life had been changed for the better, it was like cleansing my soul
This explains exactly why I resonated with not only are you really OK but also do you wish that you loved me. I've listened to St so many times and could never resonate. It was never the right time. This much I understood. But never was I able to understand the albums or Vessel, this clearly before.
We and I are soooo blessed to have this amazing group share their poetry , music , tragedy and journey with us, I personally can’t and don’t want to ever not have Sleep Token. Thank you ❤️
Ive only gotten into sleep token when Chokehold was released in january of 2023. Despite being late to the party, I went through their entire discography and found a deep connection with TPWBYT. From the piano in Atlantic, the vocals of Fall For Me, to the heartbreak in Missing Limbs, I loved it all. Out of all the songs on that album Telomeres was the one that spoke to me the most. "And we go beyond the farthest reaches Where the light bends and wraps beneath us And I know as you collapse into me This is the start of something" 11:09 im glad to hear that someone else also holds that song as close to them as I do. Much love Luke 🩵🩵🩵
I discovered the band shortly after my dad passed 2 years ago. His heart failed him and he kept having repeat heart attacks. I had to tell him he wasnt coming home from the hospital (he lived with me and my hubby). It was the HARDEST goodbye ive ever had to make and i wasnt ready. And i had very little family support. Sleep Token helped me through All that
I think you put into words what I've been trying to say since I discovered Sleep Token. Their music and Vessel's voice and emotions have always hit me hard and I never fully understood why. I connected a few of the dots and started using their music to heal. But this... this is a whole other level. I couldn't stop crying throughout the whole thing because this is my story (as I'm sure it is many other's story, as well, and why their music touches so many people). I see all of that in me, the trauma, the pain, the consuming darkness, and now I know why it's so important to me. His music encompasses my internal struggle, my constant battle against myself. I didn't think Euclid could hit me any harder than it already does, but now I get it. I've said since I found them that sharing ST with others is like sharing a piece of my soul. I believe that's true now more than ever. Thank you. Thank you so much for doing this despite all your struggles. I hope you heal and Sleep Token carries you through it all.
Hi Luke - I'll admit I held off a little with seeing this video only because I feel in many ways super "protective" of Vessel's poetry in the sense that I feel it so personally and I want to keep that for just myself and my own journey and for him in honoring that it is uniquely HIS journey. I dont know if I'm expaining it very well. All this to say - now I've seen it - and I absolutely loved it. You did it so well. Kindly, lovingly, carefully - drawning the big lines and not getting lost in the details and overexplaining quauntum mechanics. I really appreciated that. Just the right touch and sentiment. And the end of the video was a real gut buster and I cried. Beautiful - I think even Vessel could not have written it bettter. Cannot wait for the next part of the journey and I''m just happy to be here and to witness. To worship.
The apparition. By far my favorite song from sleep token. I wasn’t ready for hard deep that song goes. Though, everything I’ve heard so far is amazing, it’s hard to pick just one but that’s definitely the one for me.
I found Sleep Token when I was at my lowest ( Alkaline had just been realeased). I related so much to his music that I finally felt seen. I was in and out of behavioral health units, lost my house, lost everything. I moved across the US and was working on myself, therapy, and found a career I loved. Eden was everything. "No amount of self saught fury will bring back the glory of innocence" truly helped me begin letting go. I was traumatized and abused from the time I was 4. I don't remember innocence and I never had it, it was stolen. I have always hated myself for being never enough and for the things I went through. I always blamed myself for the abuse that was done to me. I still do sometimes, but every day I try to remind myself " I must be someone new for me." I must now live and love myself. The love and attention and care I deserved as a child, I must now give to myself. This band has saved my life, truly. I saw them October last year at the House Of Blues in Anaheim, CA. I made a sign that said "you saved me". I hope he saw it, and he realizes he did save me and so many others by sharing his story. Thank you Vessel, for bringing hope and light to myself and others. "You Saved Me" 22:29
I distinctly remember the first time I heard a Sleep Token song. It was 2018 and RUclips recommended Jaws to me, they had just released it. As soon as the song started, I felt my entire world shift on its axis. Witnessing their growth and being able to heal from my own problems became such an important part of my life. I love them so so so very much This video was absolutely beautiful!!! Thank you so much!!!
This band . I honestly dont have the words other than i feel like vessel is singing from my soul , telling my story, exposing my thoughts and feelings to the world.
Just a week ago, I discovered Sleep Token-- ''Take Me Back To Eden" being the first song I heard by them and it felt like my soul has been wanting to claw its way out of my body since hearing the chorus. I went to quickly listen to their entire discography thereafter and while I love each and every single one of their songs, several have perpetually stuck to me like glue and I can only point out two or three as to why they invoke such strong emotions in me that I'm unable to clearly decipher. Since discovering them I've cried so much and I'm happy to be a part of the Sleep Token fandom, as late to it as I am. Babbling aside, your video is beautifully edited and perfectly explains the messages they convey in both their music. It has helped me further understand why I've so quickly latched on to them and their lyrics. Thank you so much for your hard work on this and hope you're staying safe and happy. { 🕯}
All the comments here are talking about Euclid, and Euclid is an amazing song, but the song that made me a true fan of Sleep Token was “Are You Really Okay?” That song resonates with me like no other song I’ve heard. And this video helped me get a better understanding of that song along with the entire discography, which helps to appreciate it more. Thank you
1: 7:04 *path of reason. Another interesting thing is that, in early sleep token, before they left gigging in london, Vessel was angry and bitter. Nazareth talks about shooting his ex, even. He was pissed and vengeful and angry. By the time of Sundowning, much of that anger had faded, relegated only to IV’s screaming vitriol, compressed into a single, sparing voice of screaming hate. Pressure increases, temperature increases. Pushing things down heats them up and forces them out more violently. IV became the bitter and angry one, or at least the voice in vessel’s head of anger and vengeance. Makes me wonder if he’s the angry one at vessel’s exes now. By TPWBYT, almost all the anger has left him and he is the ashes of a man, crushed beneath an ocean of pressure, guilt, crushing waves of angst. TMBTE is the healing certainly, but IV hasn’t lost the anger in his lyrics. He’s still got that bite that vessel lost, perhaps.
The song that did it for me was "Fall For Me". I listened through all songs on Take Me Back to Eden and I was loving it. But the first time I heard "And I feel like I'm losing touch with what I am again" I was SOBBING. Having Bipolar and experiencing different traumas, I'm constantly going through med changes every few months. Each time I start to slip and realize meds aren't working again, I spiral, and it feels like any progress I've made is slipping through my fingers. Slowly the other songs started hitting me deeper as well, but Fall For Me will resonate differently forever.
This video has been on my watch later playlist for a little while now and I finally had the time to really sit with it and I’m glad I did cuz WOW. This is such an amazing love letter to something you are clearly so passionate about and it just really resonates with so many people. Thank you for putting this together. I think it’s a beautiful interpretation of music that hinges on such heavy topics that lots of us struggle with but don’t always have the words for. ❤❤❤
From parts of The Night Does Not Belong to God being reused in Euclid, to the sheer power of Vessel screaming "I can't hold myself together" in High Water. Sleep Token has quickly become one of, if not my favourite bands of all time. Most songs pull me out of my own body and it gets even worse when you practise them and you feel what Vessel was feeling. Stay strong people and most importantly, Worship.
Ever since a loved one shared this band with me, I've been hooked. It's like a feeling of security and validation that you keep coming back to. When introducing others, I've described their music as "the only band that makes me feel intense emotions". For a while there, while I was stable, I binged only their music. Then, I quit and spiraled into depression for months; so much so, that I was hospitalized. Shortly before going in, while contemplating my next course of action, I was listening to them again. And, for that time, I got the motivation to fight, rather than harm myself again or die. Yesterday was my discharge. And here I am, listening to their music again with a new sense of direction in my journey. I'm done wasting years being suffocated and ruled by the traumas I carry. They've tormented me for long enough. I knew their music evoked something of a spark, but there wasn't a stable fuel in my system to take to flame. Now... *I must be someone new.*
I fell in love with Sleep Token because Vessel's story, while our paths are different, manifests feelings I can't really express externally. The depths of depression that are so dark and all-consuming that you feel there's no other option than to *let* it consume you. While I'm not as hopeful in my own escape from it, Vessel's hope for a brighter future for himself is infectious for me. A nice little reminder that there *can* be a way out. Somehow.
@@BastetMusic There absolutely is a way out! And even in your darkest hour, you still see that flicker of light in the distance.. Keep being patient and kind to yourself and slowly work yourself towards that light.. You can and will get there!
What a beautiful narrative, an epic story that Vessel has given us. It's such an important message that so many can relate to and that is just part of what makes Sleep Token such an incredible force. Thank you for taking so much of your time to relay this and to do so, so eloquently! Seeing this made me remember why I love them so much. Even through the tough times, there is a message of hope! Thank you for that reminder!
What an absolutely beautiful and raw video. I’m sitting here sobbing. I love this band so much. Thank you so making this video, I think a lot of us needed to see it. Sending so much love.
Sleep token seems to have captured the journey (and vessel is apart of) the specific collective that is going through spiritual/personal awakening, and ascending. I know I found sleep token exactly when my expected life path came crashing down in a tower moment-and I had to evolve in order to transform into the person I am today, and it was a soundtrack to this past year in which I accelerated in growth faster than I have the last 27 years of life on this earth.
this video is incredible and perfectly encapsulates everything i love, theme wise, about sleep token and that message at the end hit so hard for me and probably so many other people, god bless you man i wish i found this video sooner
This was a beautiful video and once again, it made me seeing things in Sleep Token’s music that I never considered, like the derealization and depersonalization. I really love your interpretations of the material as a whole and thought the message behind your vid was so heartwarming! Thank you for making this!
Just found this video and it broke me - it should be good knowing that there are others who feel the same. I am completely unable to explain how I am to my family and friends - I just feel so alone. I have to listen to Sleep Token every single day.
So I've fallen into this rabbit hole, it all began when I heard a snippet of a song somewhere I can't remember, only a few weeks ago, and I felt I had to find out what it was all about ...I ended up here with tears in my eyes. I'm amazed.
This is amazing. I never understood the true definition of what sleep token was saying. I knew it was a whole mystery. I fell in love with his songs and his songs attached to my life line by line. I agreed with every single line he wrote. It would tie into my own life. Almost like he knew what would go on in my life. This video forever changed the way I view this band. Such an amazing story.
A beautiful presentation of what Sleep Token is beyond the music. The depth of inner dialogue and the reach of audible entrances into our most vulnerable selves. The ability to understand feelings that we can’t put into words. Many of us struggle with trauma, regret, heartbreak, loss, and pain, but through the music, we've connected as one, and together, we will overcome. Stay strong, friends.
11:13 hell YES! Telomeres is one of my all times favorites from them with maybe the only song beating it is TNDNBTG! It’s definitely their most underrated song and I can’t believe they haven’t played it live yet! Every Sleep Token fan needs to know about it
Damn.. i have no word to describe what i feel right now but.. thank you! I felt like i was relating a lot to Vessel and Sleep Token music in general along with my own interpretation but what you bring into it was like missing puzzle to me that i needed so deeply and make me see it with a deeper meaning and finally be able to reflect better on myself. That was deep but truly needed, you have all my gratitude for that. Worship 4 ever ❤
Its just amazing how I discovered this band. I remember asking "why do you like this?", then Drumeo video appeared and it was perfection, then I listened to some songs and it was better, then I saw their lyrics and I fell in love, then I started looking for everything about them and I get to this video that shows exactly how I feel listening to them. This was very well done and Im glad I took the opportunity to listen to Sleep Token. I feel them like a band to grow personally and musically.
I stumbled across Sleep Token, after my partner of ten years had found love in someone else. I really felt these lyrics, songs and albums for exactly as to what you have described and put together in this beautiful masterpiece of a video. I’m privileged to have grown, developed and become the amazing person I am now. Alongside Vessel with his healing journey. I will forever love this band, everything they stand for and we are blessed to have such a beautiful entity be able to put into words and art what some of us cannot. Thank you Sleep Token, and thank you Luke for this incredible video 🙏🏼
I've never been so attached to music, I've normally listened to heavy stuff while growing up due to my brother. Sleep token touched me in a way i didnt think music could. I joined the bandwagon a little too late and missed their tour in north America, my wife and i are flying to Belgium to see them live for the first time in November, and i couldnt be more excited about the thought. Its going to seem unreal to me, but i know if i anchor myself into the moment, theres no doubt it will be the best experience ive had to this day
I LOVED THIS VIDEO. Thank you. I love Sleep Token and looking to this interpretation of the trilogy brought me to cry. Honestly, I needed. So thank you, sincererly
If I ever get asked to describe what the five stages of grief, the seven deadly sins, and the 10 commandments would look/sound like, I'll Answer with "SLEEP TOKEN " I'm a fairly new fan. Sleep Token spoke to me in ways I couldn't explain in mere words. I needed a way to understand why Vessel is the way he is, why his offerings in each ritual were like a grand calling. And then I found this video. I'm grateful for this and it only gave me more reason to love and support this group of broken souls. Thank you. WORSHIP.
I appreciate that intellectual breakdown. Most of my friends and family can’t appreciate some of the music I listen to, and Sleep Token is no exception. While I have a great appreciation for the music itself, I lack the ability to break down the imagery and poems behind the music. You did just that in this video.
It’s INSANE how much I needed this video. I’ve loved Sleep Token for almost 4 years now, & been in a tumultuous relationship for 5, & trying to reclaim myself in that, as well as in the throes of chronic illnesses that have taken everything in my life from me, leaving me unable to do anything anymore. Doctors appts, medication, PAIN, along with past traumas & depression ever-lingering, plus the heartache of the person I loved becoming someone that resents me for my suffering & traumas, & who worsens all of that physical pain with all of the emotional pain. I’m living alone again now, & it’s been *very* hard, not only just not having the person I once loved around anymore (although, I don’t know where that person went, bc it’s not the same person I know now) but also because I’m disabled, & I don’t have anybody. It’s been incredibly difficult trying to keep surviving through all of this, but this video shattered me. Made me kind of realize why I’ve cycled through which album is my favourite & the timing of them, & I’m just cycling back from Tomb to Eden lately. Thank you for this video (& the cry) & for anyone else out there struggling similarly as I am; we can break through & renew ourselves. It’s not easy, but the bough broke a long time ago. I do believe I might be able to muster up some more fight in me. All of us can. Worship 🖤 xx
@@NicciZelda Thank you for taking the time to share your story! I'm glad that the video connected with you. There is a quote that I think you will like.. "These mountains you are carrying on your back, you were only suppose to climb" I know you can and will overcome your struggles and find peace and joy in life again. Remember to be kind and patient with yourself.. Things will get better! Just keep going. Thank you again, I wish you all the best 💙
Sleep Token has inspired me deeply to continue doing the work I do and not in the physical manner. It brings me such joy and happiness because we have to start at the end (chaos) to get to the beginning (true enlightenment) this video and the artisan ship that ALL of these gentlemen put into their craft is awe-inspiring,humbling and amazingly beautiful. I’m so over joyed with tears. ST has made a huge impact on so many not just myself and I will continue to spread the love of this movement!!! Blessing to you, Alex & Sleep Token-EN SUIVANT LA VERITÉ (In following the truth)🫵🏻💯 thank you 🙏🏼
Hello my friends.. It’s been a minute, I know. Sorry.
The truth is I have really not been okay. Life has been incredibly rough for a while and in some regards things are worse than ever. It was however, so important for me to
finish this project and share it with you all.
I started putting together the first ideas for this video while laying in a hospital bed.
DYWTYLM had just been released and I remember listening to the song while staring up at the ceiling of this small sterile room, knowing a spark had been lit.
Some time later, after the release of the full album, I isolated myself in a little house in the countryside. That weekend I wrote about 80% of the script. The time between then and now was bad.. To say the least. it really took everything out of me to finish it. But it’s here and I’m so happy and excited to finally share it with you all.
I have to give a massive shoutout to Alex, who without hesitation agreed to help me when
my health issues were slowing everything to a crawl. He was so patient and attentive to my directions and visions throughout the whole recording process and it’s safe to say he helped save the project. Please make sure to show him some love in the comments.
I want to give a very very big shout out to the Sleep Token Discord. You have offered me so much love and support during the darkest hours. I’m forever grateful. Thank you.
I also want to thank all of you for watching and supporting my channel.
I absolutely never expected it to grow to becoming the largest ST fan channel on RUclips.
You are amazing. Thank you!!
Finally I want to ask you all for a favor.
I never once asked for a like, follow or anything..
But I will ask you for something this one time.
- Please share this video in all the ST fan spheres and with your ST friends!
I’m not asking this because I want attention or exposure for myself. I am at peace with the fact that this long format video won’t perform very well number wise. I am asking because of the message in the video. If I can just reach one person that needs to hear it, It will all have been worth all the time and effort.
I really hope you all like the video and I’m anxious to hear what you think.
And once again.. From the bottom of my heart.
Thank you all
We are forever grateful for the work you have put in to this project! Hope everything gets better 🩵
Thank you for this beautiful video l, I truly hope you and anyone else struggling learn to heal and keep having hope. Thank you again and to Alex and to sleep token.
Luke, I’m sorry for the hardships you’ve been through whatever they may be. Thank you AND ALEX for taking the time to put out one last video for your channel. For now, perhaps.
Please take care of yourself and until next time 💙
@@DanSkinny Thank you again my friend. It means a lot to me ❤
This video made me realize I had a lot of buried trauma and torment that was just waiting to burst. I don't think I've ever had such a visceral reaction like that to any other video. I'm actually still weeping as I'm typing this out...
Thank you so much for producing this, Luke. It helped kickstart a healing process I never realized I needed, and made me realize why I'm so obsessed with this masterpiece of a band.
And take care of yourself, Luke. We may all be strangers online, but I haven't felt a connection to any other community as this one. If you have no more supporters, it's because I'm no longer on this plane of existence. And I already know you have over 5,000 people here like me that are willing to be there for you. No matter what you're going through, you aren't alone, and you are appreciated.
See you around💙
"You see, your Return to Eden was never about bringing back the past, but about loosening yourself from the vines that held you back from going into your future."
What a beautiful way to explain this concept, bravo!
Thank you ❤ I'm glad that you liked it! 😊
HE NAILED IT, this video is pure art
The call back to Chokehold in TMBTE are sung like memories
That mine made me burst into tears. I have gone through a lot with my mental health. Years of undiagnosed ocd and bipolar, horrible intrusive thoughts, broken family and more. That comment hit deep because I am healing now and learning how to live.
@@pickelsvonbrine I wish you all the best on your journey. Take your time, things will get better ❤
There is something genuinely satisfying that it was a song called "The Summoning" that got so many new fans.
That was my first song, I've plunged head first into an ocean of amazing songs like I've been a fan since the beginning. I've only been listening to them a month and I've already booked tickets. They'll stay with me forever
@@Atlanticalkaline I'm the same way. I I haven't bought a new band t-shirt or anything for a band that I've liked and probably almost 5 years. I just got a hoodie and five shirts. There's just something magical about this band honestly right?
Euclid hurt me more than anything musically I have ever experienced. I don't normally feel emotion, but Euclid broke me. It unearthed things I had buried, murdered, ignored. It genuinely feels like Vessel is calling out to you, and "I must be someone new", killed me. You aren't your past, you aren't your trauma, you're much more, because of the pain. "The night belongs to you" felt like me personally letting go. I refuse to be in pain and despair anymore. I've always been a huge music person, but Sleeptoken breaks through all of your barriers and really SPEAKS to you. Unbelievable.
I feel this in my soul. Everytime Euclid begins to play, it's like my heart lights on fire and is beaming out of me. I feel SO MUCH emotion.. but in the best way. Sadness, longing, grief, joy, anger, regret, and peace. I'm so happy that this song has a similar effect on others. I've never had a song pull so much raw emotion out of me.. every time it plays. 🫶🖤
"I must be someone new" is just such a huge line for a lot of people. Either moving past pain, trauma, or guilt, or literally even becoming a new person. As someone who learned about sleep token during my transitioning Euclid is probably the most important song to me ever.
Cannot listen to that song I cry every time and I don't usually cry
Bro the send off at 22:22 destroyed me ❤😭🫂💯
“I must be someone new” was the line that got me as well.
Okay so... I'm crying right now. Because for a long time I hadn't realized why I like sleep token so much. But now I see that... I found myself in Vessel and his songs. I felt and still feel understood with each line. Vessel claims he's not capable of saving anyone, but he has no idea how much he has changed me. Made me realize things about myself, awaken. I'm so happy that I fount this incredible band...
WORSHIP
This right here. I knew I connected with the music and it made me feel things I hadn't felt in such a long time, but I never fully understood why it hit me so hard until now. I was sobbing through the whole thing because I could've written Vessel's story myself (I'm sure the circumstances are vastly different and what we experienced is not at all the same). The raw emotions, the depression, the pain, trying to reclaim something I'll never have again, it's all there. He may say he isn't capable of saving anyone, but he saved me. And I'm glad he's saving others, too,.
He has saved alot of us! I hope he realizes how much he is loved!
Same feeling!! I understand You perfectly. You are not alone. You are so loved. Worship ❤
Fuck me I got tears now😓😓
@@ivamlekarova4200 It means for me that I adore this band and I connected deeply with the messages. I'm not religious neither
The change from "The Night Does Not Belong to God" appearing for the first time in their music when Vessel dedicates it to the person he loves, to the full circle moment where he sings "The Night Belongs To You" to himself at the end of "Euclid" is nothing short of music and songwriting genius. It made me cry the first time I heard it and still makes me cry today. The reclamation of his narrative and identity is one of the most beautiful journeys in music history.
100% - it’s a stunningly magical, yet also fraught, musical journey.
I haven’t been attached to a singer telling his truth since Chester Bennington. I know about trauma. Chester never hid his pain. Vessel keep going we are all here for you.
I have been thinking this too! Linking Park was the band I listen too when I was first diagnosed with Depression, and now Sleep Token is getting me through my PTSD
Who knew they would someday open for linkin park.
LP now with Emily is in my opinion a good representation of the fact that things will never be the same again, but life goes on and it can be great again. Maybe Sleep token will get at the same point some day
sitting here, typing this while ugly crying. This band is more than just a band, theyre the reason i'm starting to process m trauma and continue healing mentally. this band has genuinely pulled me from the pits of depression and C-PTSD and helped me find a new meaning to life.
Never cried this hard to Euclid ever.
*Worship.*
I wish you warmth and good healing 🖤❤ Take care
Wish you good health brother, take care of yourself❤

Hey Luke,
Thank you so much for your kind words :) It was truly an honor to be a part of this amazing project, especially knowing the personal journey you went through to bring it to life. Your resilience and dedication are incredibly inspiring! I'm so glad I could help in any small way to make your vision a reality, and I'm here if you need anything, just drop me a line and I'll be more than happy to help :)
To all ST fans - Luke has poured his heart and soul into this video, and it's a testament to his passion and strength. What an incredible video he has put out! Please share with your friends and in all the Sleep Token communities to help spread its powerful message.
Luke, take care of yourself and know that we're all here supporting you. Your work means so much to us, and we're grateful for everything you do. Stay strong, my friend!
Best,
Alex Tamulis
Thank you so much Alex!
I appreciate your help and all your kind and warm words.. You have a good soul 🙏
You did a beautiful job
It shows, all the work is totally worth it.. I mean what you've out together for us is a journey in a more easily understood way, deepening the appreciation. Thank you for making it for us all to enjoy. I'd say that this video us like a song in its own right.
I saw ST last night :) Manchester was amazing!
I never thought that understanding someone else's pain and healing process would make me understand my own. I had never felt what I felt when I heard "The night belongs to you", a liberating feeling in some way. After finding Sleep Token, after wanting to understand and learn, hope returned to me, the desire to fight back, to seek help, to help myself.
For a long time I had felt somewhat hollow, for not being able to cry when I felt I needed to, but listening to the final part of this video made me feel again like that emotional and sensitive teenager that I once was. Thank you.
@@zoepaillalef And thank you for watching 😊🙏 I wish you all the best in your future 💙
I never really understood why, upon hearing Sleep Token for the first time yesterday, I felt a strong connection with this band. It is scarily accurate to what I have been going through the past 10 years.
@@F0xHasS0x I'm glad that you discovered the band! I wish you all the best.
I’m just sat here sobbing at the end of that.
Euclid means more to me than I can articulate. This band saved me in more ways than I can express.
Love your videos. Thank you for this.
When Vessel says “this bough has broken through” I always lose it because I can feel him starting to heal and it’s allowed me to heal
Bro the send off at 22:22 ❤️😭💯🫂
I've always been quite emotional. Most people call me a crybaby. But I feel things deeply. I cannot separate myself from the pain of others. When I first heard Sleep Token, I cried for weeks. I have never been like this with a band before. I didn't understand why it affected me so much. But I've realized that Vessel represents humanity to its core. And it's incredibly beautiful how he has the ability to write songs about things we all feel at some point. He is just like me. He *feels* things deeply, just as I do. Just as we all do.
I've never understood how empathy became a weakness, I can care about you, and if you cross a line punch you in the face..it doesn't make me "manly" or some "tough guy"", I just understand how to navigate my emotions and react accordingly
Thank you for this video. I don’t like when people say “it’s just music. It’s all a gimmick. There is no deeper meaning. You read too far into it” etc. because even if Vessel didn’t actually go thru trauma, the message is deeper than that. It’s not JUST music, it’s not JUST words. Vessel put so much thought and work into these albums and I’m in awe every time I listen to an album or even a song. I have never had a band or artist effect my soul until Sleep Token. The message is life. It’s what people go thru daily.
I hope you’re finding peace and healing. This was a beautiful video and message. I hope you get well soon 🙏🏻🖤
Everyone, absolutely everyone, has experienced trauma. That's not in question.
@@Ty91681 you’re absolutely correct.
People without trauma cannot write like this
@@Atlanticalkaline I’m not saying he didn’t by any means. But some people can write beautiful things by understanding others pain.
i don’t believe i’m the only one to say this, but sleep token has been and probably always will be the one band that has helped me grow by listening and embracing their songs.
100%, this is a community I am proud to be a part of .🫶🏻
Sleep Token is more than music. They are art! I discovered this band after a damaging emotional experience. I was scared of my own emotions and didn't know how to feel them. I heard one song and started my journey. What a journey it had been. They gave me the ability to feel and let my emotions flow. It didn't scare me any more. It let me go through everything. The trilogy absolutely broke me. I was able to be at the lowest of lows and be ok with it. This band saved my life and be able to accept and release everything. I still feel how I did that day that I broke. They have made me learn and not go to far into the deep. They will always be in my soul. Thankyou Sleep Token. All tho I am still damaged, I am not afraid any more!
Euclid is such a masterful and epic ending to this trilogy. It really sums up everything that an ending to that has to have.
casually sits down to watch this video after finally a good day at work, feelin good, proceeds to make it to the end of the video where i am stricken with emotion. good emotion. man i loved that ending.
@@toxicidy8191 I'm glad you liked it! ❤
This band is so much more than just the music
Euclid is a masterpiece and the epitome of the process of letting go ❤ There are no words to express what this song is doing/has done for me/to me ~ NONE. I thank God for blessing Vessel with his experiences so he can express such beautiful poetry and that he found the strength and courage to stay. He IS Divinely guided!
I'm not crying (crying)
❤
I discovered sleep token , Sundowning, just before i went through a extremely rough period in my life. Found a profound connection to the music. This Place Will Become Your Tomb; felt like the sound track to my life, it came out just as i was experiencing worst time of my life. This band will forever hold a special place in my heart.
Just another person crying because this video explained everything to me as far as why I can't stop listening to this band and why i need to keep hearing this music. Beautifully put and eloquent video truly in Sleep Token fashion. Thank you for another step towards hope.
When Euclid started playing, i broke. What a fabulous video. Thank you 🙏🏼😭
I just found Sleep Token. I've been broken musically and emotionally since Chester died. Now that I've found you guys i feel whole again, musically, emotionally, and now spiritually. 🙏🏻
Thank you. Just thank you
The pummeling breakdown outro of the song TMBTE coupled with its presentation of “I have traveled far beyond the path of reason” absolutely crushed / crushes me every single time I hear it.
I always thought that 'are you really okay' was sleep singing to him, being awoken by his suicide attempt and thats what began their toxic love affair. But hearing it explained in a different way that vessel is actually trying to help himself makes it a lot less depressing. The song itself saved my life, hearing vessel telling me not to hurt myself again when i had planned to end it all that day changed everything for me. So thank you for other explanations and for adding hope to the sadness. 🖤
Glad you're still with us (also to you, Luke!) 💜 On those days where you can't imagine seeing the next, I hope you'll remember the sheer stubbornness and strength that got you from the last day to your present one. Each day you experience is a gift to *yourself* above anything else. Please remember that you are worth every second of that gift you give yourself. Love and peace to you.
Is his attempt a fact, or just a guess?💔
@@OrionsChild thank you so much 💜
@EmoMona3 alot of his lyrics point towards either an accident or suicide attempt, lots of people have noticed large scars on his arms also which could be either an attempt or accident.
I discovered Sleep Token through TikTok when all those reaction videos for The Summoning were trending. I liked the song so headed to RUclips to check out more of their songs. Some random recommendations popped up and I kept clicking. It was Alkaline that hooked me. I listened to the entire discography from beginning to end by the time TMBTE album dropped. I adore this group in such a way I've rarely done before. They just get me in the feels and make me smile and cry. I'm forever grateful I found them.
Worship
So, seeing this video has ignighted a spark in me i haven't felt in awhile. I'm usually a pretty reserved person and my feelings have never been something I could convey, but seeing this made all the strings of why i love Sleep Token connect. I want to heal from the pain that has been inflicted on me.
I met someone around ten years ago, we shared a birthday, similar hobbies and interests, but the time wasn't right. We both moved on from eachother, found our own bumpy way, with plenty of ups and downs for both of us. About a year ago, on out birthday we started talking again and we ended up trying again. It was by far the highest point in my life, sharing moments with her, helping recover from our issues from parents to ex's, it felt good, it felt right. She had problems with having kids in the past and I i always wanted to be a dad, so we figured we would try and have a kid together. After trying for awhile she began to grow cold and distant, we went from living together to seeihg each other once or twice a week. She finally reached out and said we needed to talk and my heart sank, the only thought in my head was that it had happened again, instead of mourning, i had to grieve when she ended things between us. Me and her both loved Sleep Token, both discovering them shortly after we got back together, her favorite song was DYWTYLM, once the full release of Take me back to Eden was out, we were over. The only person i wanted to share the album with and bond over it didn't want to see my face again. I spent a few months going through the motions, barley existing and finding myself in the same rut that many have felt before. I lost my job, family members who didn't understand what was going on, and a group of friends that i met through her. Ive been dragging myself from day to day with her constantly in my mind, in my dreams and I was scared I'd get to the point that I've found myself at so many times where i didnt wish to keep going, but I got a second chance. For my birthday i got to see sleep token live and in combination with this video, i feel that i can truly start moving on.
To those who took the time reading this, thank you. This community has opened my eyes and i feel more connected than i ever have before. I will be better, so that when i reach my Eden, i will be in the right mindset to claim it. For all of those that are at the bottom, know that the only way to go from here is up.
Thank you for taking the time to share your story. Sometimes the mere act of writing or speaking the things that trouble us, can lighten the burden a little and help us understand everything better.
You are on the right path. Slowly work on building yourself up and be patient.. Trust the process.
You will get there.
I wish you all the best.
Take care 🖤
I am so emotional after watching this… I did cry. I’ve gone through so much in just the past year and their music, Vessel’s lyrics, have validated me so much. All the grief, trauma, regret, anger, and loneliness I’ve felt after my former left me… is unexplainable. However, their music brings me that spark of hope, just like you said. They’ve ignited something in me, something feral, untamed, yet beautifully broken. Gives a whole new meaning to my favorite phrase: You’re Gonna Watch Me Ascend.
You did an absolutely incredible job with this video. Thank you so much for your work and dedication!! 🫶🏻🙏🏻

I lost my dad to a car accident 5 days after my 18th birthday. No one understands the grief of losing a parent until it happens to them, especially in a way I wasn’t able to say goodbye to him. No words can explain how these albums make you feel on a deep level after experiencing trauma. It is crazy that Vessel can put into words what others cannot. Thank you so much for this piece, this is truly amazing. 🖤
Thank you for the kind words.
I'm so sorry for your loss ❤

I am extremely new to Sleep Token. I had heard of them over a year ago. I listened but their music didn't catch me up. I know now it was that I wasn't ready to receive it. I have grown a little since then. Life is ever changing and in my 60 years the changes go from the highest highs to the very bottom of the pit. I have experienced unimaginable emotional, physical and psychological trauma.
I would like to commend you for a wonderful and enlightening video. I appreciate your interpretation of Sleep Token. And I am thankful and grateful that you and Vessel have shared so much with me. It is changing me in so many ways. I wish you healing and love always.
Thank you for your kind comment, I really appreciate it. I wish you healing and warmth as well 🙏😊
This was so incredibly beautiful and genuinely touched my soul. I am dealing with escaping after almost 12 years of narcissistic abuse. I found Sleep Token shortly before I escaped and since then their music, their story, the fan base and their stories has given me so much hope. Given me so much strength to survive something I honestly thought I couldn't. I know it may be a cliche at this point but this band, the fans... Have genuinely saved my life. I could never express enough words to how grateful I am for that. Time and time again i've been pulled back from what felt like drowning just by hearing a song or reading someone's story in the comments. Truly, together as fans, we have the best support system. I love you all so much and will eternally be grateful, to both the band and fans, for how you've changed my life. You are so, so very loved. Your light shines in the darkest of places, never forget that. ♥
Thank you for the kind words and thank you for sharing your story 🙏🖤
Thanks for that. Your story hasn’t fallen on deaf ears
You are not alone. I released myself from 13 years of it myself at the end of February. Stay strong. Never go back ❤️🩹🫂💪🏻 I am so proud of us both 🎉
Discovered this beautiful band 4 months ago and they have completely changed my life. I live and breathe Vessels words awake and in my dreams. They are a true gift to humanity and I’m grateful to be alive during their time. Worship. ❤
Thanks for your video. Amazing the way you connect with the art. It's deep.
I wanna tell something. Now I'm an almost happy person, with some bad days which is normal. I'm a licensed psychologist myself.
But I had a really hard past. I've suffered from Anorexia, self harm and major depression in my adolescence and early 20's. I've suffered from violence and bullying on my childhood. I wanted to leave this world many times. Then I felt better until my father died after battling cancer for years. Then I was broken and... top note, I started a relationship with a " Nice guy" who really was a covert psychopath.
So I've been throught a HUGE amount of pain in my life. But I'm still here ❤
I'm doing therapy now, but I was not able to open the broken and saddest parts of myself.
A gym friend showed me Sleep Token and instantly fell in love with the vocals. Then I connected with the art in a deeper level and was like an emotional catalyst. I worked in my own therapy with ST music throught a Lot of sessions. Vessel put words when I couldn't speak. Now the pain is gone.
I'M ETERNALLY THANKFULL FOR THIS ART, AND THIS BEAUTIFUL COMMUNITY.
WORSHIP ❤
Thank you very much for the kind words 🖤 And thank you for sharing your story.. I'm proud of you. You are on the right path ❤

Sleep Token’s music made such a difference in my life and this video was so beautiful in encapsulating its power
These guys saved me. And they saved my daughter. They will always be a very special part of our lives and i cannot wait for his next chapter.
I’m new to this band and the first song I ever heard was rain. It opened me up to all the albums I ended up exploring thereafter. I’ve endured trauma since I was a child and hearing his lyrics and raw emotions caused my own emotions and thoughts that I have buried or fought to ignore to resurface cause I had no knowledge of how to heal them and move on in life. A lot of this baggage I’m carrying is slowly melting away because I found an outlet to let me feel these emotions out. I have a history of self harm so when he describes his own struggles and how he feels lost is the same things I felt when that was my outlet to numb my pain. I turned to hiking and gravitated back to nature and it’s healed me up to a point that can only go so far. ST is another level of acknowledging and understanding and accepting and it’s healing the pain I can never speak of because it’s too painful. I’m so grateful for this band and this courageous person to put his own emotions and thoughts into these albums because people are afraid to feel, afraid to reach out and are dismissed for how they feel which ends up being another suicidal story. My life could have ended so many times and I’m glad I fought with each episode because now I have someone to relate to in these songs. I’m so grateful for Sleep Token.
I recently started listening to Sleep Token only within the past six months or so. I love how dynamic their music is, how they both defy and blend genres and the mystery of the band itself is entertaining to think about. Through more and more listens, I feel increasingly drawn to them. The combination of musicality and lyricism both envelopes me in a cocoon of self-reflection and has me just singing at the top of my lungs in the car.
In the past two months, I have had really intense therapy sessions. A lot as come up from my past, my confusion about my present and concerns for the future. The beauty of any artform is our individual interpretations, and with Sleep Token's music, I've been able to hear myself for maybe the first time ever. The music reaches down deep and grabs hold, pulling the plug stopping up my emotional system. Euclid in particular brings tears to my eyes while slapping a smile on my face.
I never thought musical analysis would leave me in puddle, but you just made that happen. Thank you for this video and your insight. I wish everyone reading love and light.💙
@@taylordstories Thank you for sharing your story! And I appreciate the kind words, I'm happy that the video moved you 😊🙏
Coming into focus for me as someone who first found Sleep Token's music beyond incredible. But following on the amazement heels was a hunger for a better understanding. As the albums began to unfold in my life, an uncanny irony also set in, creating a very personal connection to their story that they would unfurl album by album. I really appreciate your perspectives and how on point you are for me, at least. A true pleasure to watch, thanks for sharing.
@@kalbaniskickdrum Thank you for the kind words! I'm glad you enjoyed it ❤
I can't express how beautiful this video really is. I bawled my eyes out singing along to Euclid at the end. I can't help but thank you for the insight you have given me regarding their music and breaking it down, because it has only made my love for ST so much more rooted.
I remember when I first listened to them back when The Summoning blew up, and for the first time, I dug into an artist's discography beyond one song and I do not regret it one bit. Aqua Regia is the one that completely enveloped me in, but when I first heard Telomeres and Gods, I had even more reason to resonate with them. Not entirely understanding that each album represented a stage of trauma and healing, I ended up finding myself in it so quickly. Within every lyric and vein running throughout their music.
I began to heal and navigate feelings within me that I couldn't locate or describe before and the reassurance it gave me is immeasurable. But having seen this video and you explaining everything has made this art so much more sentimental for me. And that, I appreciate you for.
I hope things start lightening up for you and you recover quickly. You are incredible and I appreciate your work so much. - Regia
Thank you for your kind words, and thank you for taking the time to share your experiences and thoughts. I really appreciate it

@@SleepTokenLuke Absolutely. Again, excellent work. I feel your passion and I completely support you all the way.
Thank you so much for this video! ST songs always make me feel a range of emotions.
I don't think we're all innocent people, we've been hurt and have hurt others. But their haunting lyrics find resonance in all of the fans. And this video did the same! Maybe it's the depth of consept behind the albums, maybe it's the message of hope and love, but it's almost 3 am and I'm crying in my pillow. Wether because I'm sad or because I'm happy, I don't know. But I definitely feel lighter. So thank you!
@@Julia-y3l5e And thank you for watching! I'm glad that the video connected with you ❤
This is a truly superb summary on the meaning of the songs. They're very very deep - thanks for this. I think many of us can relate to the pain depicted in their songs
i have a better understanding of why i'm so hooked on their music now, i see myself, i feel understood, i don't feel alone anymore, 21:14 i needed this today, thank you
I got to see Sleep Token earlier this year and i can truly and honestly say that my life had been changed for the better, it was like cleansing my soul
This explains exactly why I resonated with not only are you really OK but also do you wish that you loved me. I've listened to St so many times and could never resonate. It was never the right time. This much I understood. But never was I able to understand the albums or Vessel, this clearly before.
We and I are soooo blessed to have this amazing group share their poetry , music , tragedy and journey with us, I personally can’t and don’t want to ever not have Sleep Token. Thank you ❤️
Ive only gotten into sleep token when Chokehold was released in january of 2023. Despite being late to the party, I went through their entire discography and found a deep connection with TPWBYT.
From the piano in Atlantic, the vocals of Fall For Me, to the heartbreak in Missing Limbs, I loved it all. Out of all the songs on that album Telomeres was the one that spoke to me the most.
"And we go beyond the farthest reaches
Where the light bends and wraps beneath us
And I know as you collapse into me
This is the start of something"
11:09 im glad to hear that someone else also holds that song as close to them as I do. Much love Luke 🩵🩵🩵
I discovered the band shortly after my dad passed 2 years ago. His heart failed him and he kept having repeat heart attacks. I had to tell him he wasnt coming home from the hospital (he lived with me and my hubby). It was the HARDEST goodbye ive ever had to make and i wasnt ready. And i had very little family support. Sleep Token helped me through All that
@@ThicNWOChels21 I'm so sorry to hear that :( I wish you all the best ❤
I think you put into words what I've been trying to say since I discovered Sleep Token. Their music and Vessel's voice and emotions have always hit me hard and I never fully understood why. I connected a few of the dots and started using their music to heal. But this... this is a whole other level. I couldn't stop crying throughout the whole thing because this is my story (as I'm sure it is many other's story, as well, and why their music touches so many people). I see all of that in me, the trauma, the pain, the consuming darkness, and now I know why it's so important to me. His music encompasses my internal struggle, my constant battle against myself. I didn't think Euclid could hit me any harder than it already does, but now I get it. I've said since I found them that sharing ST with others is like sharing a piece of my soul. I believe that's true now more than ever. Thank you. Thank you so much for doing this despite all your struggles. I hope you heal and Sleep Token carries you through it all.
Thank you so much.. I truly appreciate it. And thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts and story ❤
I wish you healing and warmth 🙏
Hi Luke - I'll admit I held off a little with seeing this video only because I feel in many ways super "protective" of Vessel's poetry in the sense that I feel it so personally and I want to keep that for just myself and my own journey and for him in honoring that it is uniquely HIS journey. I dont know if I'm expaining it very well.
All this to say - now I've seen it - and I absolutely loved it. You did it so well. Kindly, lovingly, carefully - drawning the big lines and not getting lost in the details and overexplaining quauntum mechanics. I really appreciated that. Just the right touch and sentiment.
And the end of the video was a real gut buster and I cried. Beautiful - I think even Vessel could not have written it bettter.
Cannot wait for the next part of the journey and I''m just happy to be here and to witness. To worship.
Thank you so much for the very kind words. I'm honored that you would give my project such high praise! It means a lot to me, truly🙏
The apparition. By far my favorite song from sleep token. I wasn’t ready for hard deep that song goes. Though, everything I’ve heard so far is amazing, it’s hard to pick just one but that’s definitely the one for me.
Thank you for making this video. You've made a bigger impact than you could imagine.
I found Sleep Token when I was at my lowest ( Alkaline had just been realeased). I related so much to his music that I finally felt seen. I was in and out of behavioral health units, lost my house, lost everything. I moved across the US and was working on myself, therapy, and found a career I loved. Eden was everything. "No amount of self saught fury will bring back the glory of innocence" truly helped me begin letting go. I was traumatized and abused from the time I was 4. I don't remember innocence and I never had it, it was stolen. I have always hated myself for being never enough and for the things I went through. I always blamed myself for the abuse that was done to me. I still do sometimes, but every day I try to remind myself " I must be someone new for me." I must now live and love myself. The love and attention and care I deserved as a child, I must now give to myself. This band has saved my life, truly.
I saw them October last year at the House Of Blues in Anaheim, CA. I made a sign that said "you saved me". I hope he saw it, and he realizes he did save me and so many others by sharing his story.
Thank you Vessel, for bringing hope and light to myself and others.
"You Saved Me"

I distinctly remember the first time I heard a Sleep Token song. It was 2018 and RUclips recommended Jaws to me, they had just released it. As soon as the song started, I felt my entire world shift on its axis. Witnessing their growth and being able to heal from my own problems became such an important part of my life. I love them so so so very much
This video was absolutely beautiful!!! Thank you so much!!!
God this band is so surreal and amazing from lyrics to music to lore once you learn this it makes the sleep token experience so much better

Just a week ago, I discovered Sleep Token-- ''Take Me Back To Eden" being the first song I heard by them and it felt like my soul has been wanting to claw its way out of my body since hearing the chorus. I went to quickly listen to their entire discography thereafter and while I love each and every single one of their songs, several have perpetually stuck to me like glue and I can only point out two or three as to why they invoke such strong emotions in me that I'm unable to clearly decipher. Since discovering them I've cried so much and I'm happy to be a part of the Sleep Token fandom, as late to it as I am.
Babbling aside, your video is beautifully edited and perfectly explains the messages they convey in both their music. It has helped me further understand why I've so quickly latched on to them and their lyrics.
Thank you so much for your hard work on this and hope you're staying safe and happy.

Hey Luke, Thank you for the mention in this video and supporting the project - you rule.
You know we will always love and support your work 🖤 Thanks for stopping by and dropping a comment! I appreciate it :)
All the comments here are talking about Euclid, and Euclid is an amazing song, but the song that made me a true fan of Sleep Token was “Are You Really Okay?” That song resonates with me like no other song I’ve heard. And this video helped me get a better understanding of that song along with the entire discography, which helps to appreciate it more. Thank you
Same, are you really okay hits home that and DYWTYL.
1: 7:04 *path of reason. Another interesting thing is that, in early sleep token, before they left gigging in london, Vessel was angry and bitter. Nazareth talks about shooting his ex, even. He was pissed and vengeful and angry. By the time of Sundowning, much of that anger had faded, relegated only to IV’s screaming vitriol, compressed into a single, sparing voice of screaming hate. Pressure increases, temperature increases. Pushing things down heats them up and forces them out more violently. IV became the bitter and angry one, or at least the voice in vessel’s head of anger and vengeance. Makes me wonder if he’s the angry one at vessel’s exes now. By TPWBYT, almost all the anger has left him and he is the ashes of a man, crushed beneath an ocean of pressure, guilt, crushing waves of angst. TMBTE is the healing certainly, but IV hasn’t lost the anger in his lyrics. He’s still got that bite that vessel lost, perhaps.
This video is simply amazing. Thank hou for your work.
@@nitecore1748 And thank you for watching! I'm glad you likes it 🙏
The song that did it for me was "Fall For Me". I listened through all songs on Take Me Back to Eden and I was loving it. But the first time I heard "And I feel like I'm losing touch with what I am again" I was SOBBING. Having Bipolar and experiencing different traumas, I'm constantly going through med changes every few months. Each time I start to slip and realize meds aren't working again, I spiral, and it feels like any progress I've made is slipping through my fingers. Slowly the other songs started hitting me deeper as well, but Fall For Me will resonate differently forever.
Thank you for sharing your story.
I wish you all the best. You will get there, stay strong 🖤
This video has been on my watch later playlist for a little while now and I finally had the time to really sit with it and I’m glad I did cuz WOW. This is such an amazing love letter to something you are clearly so passionate about and it just really resonates with so many people. Thank you for putting this together. I think it’s a beautiful interpretation of music that hinges on such heavy topics that lots of us struggle with but don’t always have the words for. ❤❤❤
@@Twylitegalaxy Thank you very much for the kind words!! I'm happy that you enjoyed the video 😊🙏
From parts of The Night Does Not Belong to God being reused in Euclid, to the sheer power of Vessel screaming "I can't hold myself together" in High Water.
Sleep Token has quickly become one of, if not my favourite bands of all time.
Most songs pull me out of my own body and it gets even worse when you practise them and you feel what Vessel was feeling.
Stay strong people and most importantly,
Worship.
Ever since a loved one shared this band with me, I've been hooked. It's like a feeling of security and validation that you keep coming back to. When introducing others, I've described their music as "the only band that makes me feel intense emotions". For a while there, while I was stable, I binged only their music. Then, I quit and spiraled into depression for months; so much so, that I was hospitalized. Shortly before going in, while contemplating my next course of action, I was listening to them again. And, for that time, I got the motivation to fight, rather than harm myself again or die. Yesterday was my discharge. And here I am, listening to their music again with a new sense of direction in my journey. I'm done wasting years being suffocated and ruled by the traumas I carry. They've tormented me for long enough.
I knew their music evoked something of a spark, but there wasn't a stable fuel in my system to take to flame. Now... *I must be someone new.*
I fell in love with Sleep Token because Vessel's story, while our paths are different, manifests feelings I can't really express externally. The depths of depression that are so dark and all-consuming that you feel there's no other option than to *let* it consume you. While I'm not as hopeful in my own escape from it, Vessel's hope for a brighter future for himself is infectious for me. A nice little reminder that there *can* be a way out. Somehow.
@@BastetMusic There absolutely is a way out! And even in your darkest hour, you still see that flicker of light in the distance..
Keep being patient and kind to yourself and slowly work yourself towards that light.. You can and will get there!
Same here
Same here

Holy crap, Derealization. I've felt that so often in my life but had no word for it.
What a beautiful narrative, an epic story that Vessel has given us. It's such an important message that so many can relate to and that is just part of what makes Sleep Token such an incredible force. Thank you for taking so much of your time to relay this and to do so, so eloquently! Seeing this made me remember why I love them so much. Even through the tough times, there is a message of hope! Thank you for that reminder!
What an absolutely beautiful and raw video. I’m sitting here sobbing. I love this band so much. Thank you so making this video, I think a lot of us needed to see it. Sending so much love.
Sleep token seems to have captured the journey (and vessel is apart of) the specific collective that is going through spiritual/personal awakening, and ascending.
I know I found sleep token exactly when my expected life path came crashing down in a tower moment-and I had to evolve in order to transform into the person I am today, and it was a soundtrack to this past year in which I accelerated in growth faster than I have the last 27 years of life on this earth.
this video is incredible and perfectly encapsulates everything i love, theme wise, about sleep token and that message at the end hit so hard for me and probably so many other people, god bless you man i wish i found this video sooner
@@CJ-po2nq Thank you for the very kind words! I really appreciate it. I'm glad that the video connected with you

So I've fallen into this rabbit hole, it all began when I heard a snippet of a song somewhere I can't remember, only a few weeks ago, and I felt I had to find out what it was all about ...I ended up here with tears in my eyes. I'm amazed.
This is amazing. I never understood the true definition of what sleep token was saying. I knew it was a whole mystery. I fell in love with his songs and his songs attached to my life line by line. I agreed with every single line he wrote. It would tie into my own life. Almost like he knew what would go on in my life. This video forever changed the way I view this band. Such an amazing story.
A beautiful presentation of what Sleep Token is beyond the music. The depth of inner dialogue and the reach of audible entrances into our most vulnerable selves. The ability to understand feelings that we can’t put into words. Many of us struggle with trauma, regret, heartbreak, loss, and pain, but through the music, we've connected as one, and together, we will overcome. Stay strong, friends.
@@darkbloomgaming And you too! 🙏
Simply beautiful ❤
11:13 hell YES! Telomeres is one of my all times favorites from them with maybe the only song beating it is TNDNBTG! It’s definitely their most underrated song and I can’t believe they haven’t played it live yet! Every Sleep Token fan needs to know about it
Damn.. i have no word to describe what i feel right now but.. thank you! I felt like i was relating a lot to Vessel and Sleep Token music in general along with my own interpretation but what you bring into it was like missing puzzle to me that i needed so deeply and make me see it with a deeper meaning and finally be able to reflect better on myself. That was deep but truly needed, you have all my gratitude for that. Worship 4 ever ❤
While I'm a newbie ST fan, i was instantly enthralled. Every song is a masterpiece.
Its just amazing how I discovered this band. I remember asking "why do you like this?", then Drumeo video appeared and it was perfection, then I listened to some songs and it was better, then I saw their lyrics and I fell in love, then I started looking for everything about them and I get to this video that shows exactly how I feel listening to them. This was very well done and Im glad I took the opportunity to listen to Sleep Token. I feel them like a band to grow personally and musically.
I stumbled across Sleep Token, after my partner of ten years had found love in someone else.
I really felt these lyrics, songs and albums for exactly as to what you have described and put together in this beautiful masterpiece of a video.
I’m privileged to have grown, developed and become the amazing person I am now. Alongside Vessel with his healing journey.
I will forever love this band, everything they stand for and we are blessed to have such a beautiful entity be able to put into words and art what some of us cannot.

I've never been so attached to music, I've normally listened to heavy stuff while growing up due to my brother. Sleep token touched me in a way i didnt think music could. I joined the bandwagon a little too late and missed their tour in north America, my wife and i are flying to Belgium to see them live for the first time in November, and i couldnt be more excited about the thought. Its going to seem unreal to me, but i know if i anchor myself into the moment, theres no doubt it will be the best experience ive had to this day

I appreciate that intellectual breakdown. Most of my friends and family can’t appreciate some of the music I listen to, and Sleep Token is no exception. While I have a great appreciation for the music itself, I lack the ability to break down the imagery and poems behind the music. You did just that in this video.
This was beautiful, at the moment I cant find more words to add. Thank you
It’s INSANE how much I needed this video. I’ve loved Sleep Token for almost 4 years now, & been in a tumultuous relationship for 5, & trying to reclaim myself in that, as well as in the throes of chronic illnesses that have taken everything in my life from me, leaving me unable to do anything anymore. Doctors appts, medication, PAIN, along with past traumas & depression ever-lingering, plus the heartache of the person I loved becoming someone that resents me for my suffering & traumas, & who worsens all of that physical pain with all of the emotional pain. I’m living alone again now, & it’s been *very* hard, not only just not having the person I once loved around anymore (although, I don’t know where that person went, bc it’s not the same person I know now) but also because I’m disabled, & I don’t have anybody. It’s been incredibly difficult trying to keep surviving through all of this, but this video shattered me. Made me kind of realize why I’ve cycled through which album is my favourite & the timing of them, & I’m just cycling back from Tomb to Eden lately.
Thank you for this video (& the cry)
& for anyone else out there struggling similarly as I am; we can break through & renew ourselves. It’s not easy, but the bough broke a long time ago. I do believe I might be able to muster up some more fight in me. All of us can.

I’m so over joyed with tears. ST has made a huge impact on so many not just myself and I will continue to spread the love of this movement!!! Blessing to you, Alex & Sleep Token-EN SUIVANT LA VERITÉ
(In following the truth)🫵🏻💯 thank you 🙏🏼
