Lyrics:
AND I KNOW WE DON’T SEE EYE TO EYE NO MORE, WE TRIED A THOUSAND TIMES OR MORE
AND NOW IT’S ALL BEEN SAID AND DONE. I’M HOLDING ON UNTIL IT’S GONE.
I FOUND PEACE IN MY OBLIVION. DON’T SAVE ME, MY MIND HAS ALREADY WON.
THE INEFFABLE BREAK WITHIN OUR TENSION. TRY TO SHAKE IT, DON’T LET IT WIN.
DO YOU SEE IT, THE BLIND CONVICTION?
WHAT A SORRY STATE OF AFFAIRS. DON’T BE FOOLED, IT’S ALL FOR SHOW.
WE KNOW WE’RE ONE OF MANY,
THINK YOU SEE RIGHT THROUGH ME.
BEYOND THESE WALLS OF BELIEF THERE’S A PLACE THAT WE CALL HOME,
DON’T LET THE POISON IN. I FOUND PEACE IN MY OBLIVION.
DON’T SAVE ME, MY MIND HAS ALREADY WON.
WHEN HATE RESIDES, WHEN HATE RESIDES IT’S TOO LATE. CUTTING IT FINE, LIKE DUST FOREVER DYING.
ONLY KNOW THAT YOU KNOW NOTHING, FROM NOTHING COMES EVERYTHING.
WE’RE NOT EXEMPT FROM THE INEVITABLE, LOOK AWAY DON’T LET THE OUTSIDE IN.
A VICIOUS CYCLE, A WORLD ON FIRE
LIKE A MOTHER'S PAIN IN A LABOUR OF LOVE.
SO OVER THE SAME FINITE LINES, WE’VE HEARD THE PAIN, WE’VE HEARD THE CHERISHING.
YOUR HURT LOCKER IN A SPHERE FULL, THE WORLD IS WATCHING.
NOWHERE TO GO, AS ABOVE A SOBERING LOW.
LIAR. YOU FUCKING LIAR. THIS PAIN WON’T LAST FOREVER, THIS CHANGE IS FOR THE BETTER.
i'm so emotionally attached to this MV because this is the most accurate representation of how living with depression feels like that i've never seen. It's raw, brutal, you feel stared at and judged by people all around you while you're just trying to survive your twisted mind. You become both your own puppet and worst enemy and you feel like there's no room left to be a fighter. I relate to this music video so bad. But today I can proudly say that I'm happy, even happier than ever. The message at the end is right : you are not your mind. Please, even if it seems impossible, try to fight. I promise this is a battle only you can win. I love you. Thank you While She Sleeps
Thank you
Mine was worse than this,I genuinely wanted to kill people for about 2 years,that was the hardest battle I’ve ever faced and I was literally minutes away from losing my wife and kids at any minute over those 2 years and so was some poor family losing a loved one,luckily I’ve found the right medication,severe depression and anxiety are literally one of the worst things anyone can go through
@@hashworld5492 im glad to know you survived, you're so brave 🖤
@@undercoveerse thank you,I don’t know how I did lol
@@hashworld5492there's ne defeat for the brave 🖤
an oscar for loz's acting, and a grammy for the song.
What about for the VFX? 😉
True
And a bum for your mum
Just nailed the feelings thousands of us have every single day. This band gets better every song
This... is a work of art.
Lenny du hier?
Moin Lenny
The production of this is like Triple A movie level. This perfectly represents the constant battle with your mind and personal issues many people struggle with daily.
This is why they got film industry professionals like us involved 😎
I’m crying. Literally.
I will never stop saying this band is all I need to live properly.
Loz, Sean, Matt, Sav, Aaran…you are THE men.
This is fucking insane , this is literally me fighting my demons every fucking day . Thank you guys for make that visible , your music speaks a different language wich make us all feel connected . Gracias for this Master piece
^ Exactly what this person is saying ^
@@Peteyzee98 I know I'm very late but if you're still interested yes it was all in his head. From my understanding the music video shows a battle with his mind. Basically "You Are Not Your Mind." Hope this helps
You are not your mind.
Fucking love this band......🔥🙏🙌
Absolutely agree with you!
Fun fact; my girl broke up with me 2 days ago... Its like this band knew and released this right on time.
You are not your mind. Keep saying it
@@Toby-lt2fp Sorry to hear that dude. Yes, I remember listening to them when my marriage ending. It's like they have our backs like we have theirs. Unity 🤝 🤟
@@Jennypegz unity.🙏🙌
@@Toby-lt2fp Take care of yourself brother. You got this 🤜 🌟
Loz acting his fucking heart out, wow what a video, what a message.. nevermind how much the song actually slaps. Can’t believe how much this band continues to blow my mind, the massive talent these lads have what! This is how it’s done! (Also flashbacks to the society open day 😭)
Who's here setting an alert/reminder??🔥🔥🔥
right here mate
me!
Dude, this fckin represents how I feel everyday, in a constant battle with my mind due anxiety. You did an amazing work as always in terms of understanding me with all of your songs. One of the reasons why I love you guys.
Absolutely in agreement 🖤
Hate to admit it but this world is cruel and sad and keeps pressing us to this point of feeling like this. Brother we will make it somehow we gotta!
@@christianruiz3058 spot on brother. Life will keep kicking our teeth in but we gotta keep trying. 🖤
i hope you do better with yourself i have a close friend that has hard problems with this and has with him and with you LOVE YOU GO FAR AND BEYOND
A true expression of what it feels like living with sever anxiety and suicidal thoughts. At least that’s how I interpreted it. I never thought of the battle being with another physical self but it makes so much sense. I needed this. Thankyou 🖤
You guys blow my mind every single time you drop a song: that was perfection I love this band so much😭
While She Sleeps makes the kind of music you want to hear when you see the first glimpse of sunlight after the hardest struggle imaginable.
Loz’s vocals have improved so much over the years.
This is such a dynamic track. It is incredible. Paired with the visuals and the message, it is the most intense/dynamic sound you have captured since the Brainwashed era. It is a phenomenal song. So authentic. I am blown away!
Can we all take a second to appreciate the cinematography? Incredible how much work must have gone into this.
Sean is such an underrated guitarist his writing is one of the best in the scene🔥
Ty guys for understanding what many of us in the scene struggle with on the daily💯
Cinematography 9/10
Acting 8/10
Story 10/10
Music 10/10
I want you to know how many times this has saved lives. Mine included. Multiple times.
Just make it to tomorrow.
You are not alone, there's fucking millions of us fighting for every breath.
❤
maaaan that sound that Sean or Mat does in mids of that breakdown at the end is killing me ☠️❤️, you guys are f insane and I love it
5:48 you mean? That sound is straight up fire!
@@Delok. 6:03 is what I ment, but Sean is always killing it with these dj type things (idk how to call it xd)
Celý je to skvělý! :D
@@aldusbrutus1401 WSS neumí vydat špatný song
@@vika7388 Je to tak
Bring it...Best band on the planet
This is how I exactly feel day by day
Will translate really well over audio. Video was amazing. Literally sums up the feelings of anxiety and paranoia perfectly. VMAs best music video...
this had me in tears. as I can see from the comments, there are so many of us who live in constant fight against ourselves... thank you for turning this feeling into this masterpiece, I love you guys ♥️
Grateful to be a part of such an incredible story. The message in the video resonates with us all, thank you for shining light on this topic. Beans on toast was top notch too! ♥️
Every While She Sleeps MV is a cinematic experience on a whole different level. Yes, I love the songs and the meaning too, but I'm a photographer and watching it is so satisfying. I'm never gonna shut up about this. Like how tf did they made him fight with himself? And the acting skills, THIS IS SICKKK.
If I won't be able to hear them live in my country this year, I'd consider it as one of the biggest mistakes I ever did.
Охренеть... когда-то группа начинала, как одна из многих в жанре, а теперь они немногие кто остались живыми и до мурашек пробирающими не только музыкальной составляющей, но и лирикой и идеями...
То что Вы делаете - это настоящее. Вы проделали потрясающую работу за все эти годы.
I always love the messages in their songs!
This is why I love this band, you guys speak to me on so many levels with this video the constant battle with our mental demons and knowing that we are all together, proud to be in the sleep’s society
The north stands for nothing
This is the six
Brainwashed
You are we
So what
Sleeps society
Thanks for everything ❤️
Definition of perfection
1: the quality or state of being perfect: such as
a: freedom from fault or defect : FLAWLESSNESS
b: this video
Wow… I’ve never heard of this band before, but this whole picture brought me to tears. The song, the raw visuals… Absolutely amazing… I guess I didn’t realize how badly I’ve been drowning until I seen myself in the mirror within this video…
Boy those guys are insanely talented ! What a banger
😍
That refrain gave me instant goosebumps. Not gonna lie...I definitely wished for a prolonged chorus at the end to sing along. What a banger.
I am suprised how well Loz suits to this music video
Song is fantastic but the video is just something else. Encapsulates the pain that so many mental illnesses can inflict on someone. Few can sing about it, fewer can put it across in a video so eloquently..but that's While She Sleep. They've always been top of their game with so much.
Absolutely nailed it guys! The acting, set designs, colour grade and cinematic tone are absolutely spot on!
Already best music video of 2022!!!
Part of this video was filmed in my (and Lawrence's) hometown of Doncaster and couldn't be more proud being a fan of this band for 10-years. Loz Taylor used to live just down the road from me. While She Sleeps for life! 🤘
Okay, greatest video ever made contender right here.
so grateful to have been a part of the music video, love this song sm
No tengo palabras, siempre mejoran con cada canción que sacan y le sacan a uno la lagrima de lo bien que transmiten, yo los amo, esto sí es hacer música carajo 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
no hablo bien español, pero estoy de acuerdo que mejoran con cada canción:)
Totalmente de acuerdo contigo
I struggle with depression and Loz represented this fucking disease perfectly. Thank you WSS never stop doing music! Your music only getter better :)
Jump, jump, jump, jump, jump, jump !!! 🤘🏽
that breakdown was fucking face melting. dare I say this is my favorite track you guys have ever made. chorus was so fucking catchy and the whole song was punchy af(pardon the pun). cinematography was beautiful too. Expect nothing less from you lads ❤
I’ve been a WSS dance since the NSFN and this is absolutely outstanding. Love this lads!!
It's not an acting but reality of how few people are being alive living this way. Appreciated 👍👍
Superman 2 Vibes in the diner.
I always love reading the description of their music videos to see who's done what. Not only do they credit everyone involved, its amazing just how much the band do themselves. Seriously talented bunch of lads!
this is insanely good. everything about this.
shoutout to Loz for the fantastic acting
I could sell my soul For YOU guys!!! What a Fcking Tune !!! WOoooOOOOW !!!!
What a song, what a message! Respect the work that you do & stand for… cant wait to hear this one live
Let's go boyssss!
FKN MASTERPIECE! NO WORDS!
I am completely in love with this song and video! INSANE! 🖤
Holy fuck that was incredible, massive respect for you for making mental health such a big part of your band and music, it’s really needed in these times ❤️
Thats the kind of the story, "Oain is the question of will". Sleeps society!
Without a doubt... everyone had one demon inside and it's nothing but ourselfs OMG what are we seeing best video so far
Already headbanging and it didn't even premiere yet
what a masterpiece! the song, the violence, the message.
the vibe…. the cinematography and man…. the lyrics are so strong …….❤️
This hits hard! My darkest days of depression and self harm are behind me (for now) and are fading in the rear view mirror. Even though I haven’t cut myself in 15 years, I live with self harm ideation almost every day. Sometimes, the only thing that gets me through and prevents me from breaking that 15 year triumph is knowing that I’m not alone. This song is already so important to me. Thank you!
This is incredible. Best band on the planet BAR NONE
10/10! Yeaaaah!
Grande danny!!!🤘
NO
Freaking anxiety. Whenever I think I have started managing it it comes back. Up until few weeks ago I was going outside almost daily and nowadays once every few days and its only manageable during the night because during the day I get close to panic attack each time when I try forcing myself. What a fun, party 24/7.
well, it's worth to be named THE Masterpiece.
BUZZING, CANT WAIT COME ON LADS
So stoked for this already
Unreal! Can't wait to see you at Malta Weekender 🤘🤘
Wow 🤩
Excellent music video and song i love it🤟🤟🤟🇭🇺🇭🇺🇭🇺
Waking up to “OUR NEW SONG EYE TO EYE OUT NOW” made my whole day. After hearing this song, made my whole week! WSS will forever be my favorite band love all you guys
We going old while she sleeps nice touch, video kinda reminds me of green streed, absolute banger!!!
I CAN'T FIND MYSELF IN THE VIDEO BUT BESIDES THAT IT WAS FUN BEING IN WITH THE CROWD. AND YES THIS SONG STILL HITS
Definitely the best video you guys have made. Loz is actually a pretty decent actor too.
Song is effing brutal and heavy as hell.
Nice work lads 🤘
YOU ARE WE. THANK YOU.
That vinegar slap!
Wie geil ist dieser Song bitte
My body is ready 😤
cant wait 🤘🏽
Absoultly amazing, I can literally feel this song. We’ve all got demons we fight everyday, just remember, you are not alone.
Aaran Mackenzie is on Fire!!!
Dajeeeee💥
That fucking breakdown
That's gonna be a slammer live
@@robbie3163 oh I cannot wait to see these guys
This is Tight!! 🤘
I find it fascinating and almost impossible as a band for pretty much 16 years to not release any slightly bad song. WSS is just something else, my favorite band ever ❤
So hyped!🔥 Can't wait
You never dissapoints.. thank you
Every song by WSS is an anthems.
Is it just me or does this song feel like a return to form for these guys?
You say that like sleep society wasn't great
@@saamo1423 it was fine but it wasn't even in the same conversation as Brainwashed or You Are We
@@cameronschiff132 Yeah strong disagree on that
@@saamo1423 to each their own
Insane story telling / cinematography & concept! That breakdown was hench!! Solid effort lads 🤘🏻
Podemos hablar de los guiños cinematográficos que tiene este video, y no solo eso, lo bien que se transmite el mensaje, me saco una lagrima por que es jodido luchar todos los días contra ti e ignorar ese otro tu que te intenta sabotear. Muy buen video
No espere encontrar a alguien que hable español
@@sntiqxzv aqui tienes uno :D

Mbooiiiss!! 🔥🔥
Absolutely insane! Thanks for having us on board to do the SFX Makeup guys!
Amazing truly amazing the jump cuts the cinematography the message behind this also really hits home also especially love how you set the scene by using an old bus and old vehicles
ABSOLUTELY SICK. The video gave me fucking chills, you guys nailed it once again 🔥
While She Sleeps = Best UK Band
Got a bit of In Flames nostalgia with this song 🔥
And I know we don't see eye to eye no more
We've tried a thousand times and more
And now it's all been said and done
I'm holding on until it's gone
I felt peace in my oblivion
Don't take me, my mind has already won
The inevitable break within our tension
Shattered shit, you'd tell anyone
Don't you take me apart, deflection
In a sorry state of affairs
Don't be fooled, it's all for show
We know we won't have anything, you see right through me
You know here's old, underneath there's a place we call home
Don't make a pose of me
Go!
I felt peace in my oblivion
Don't take me, my mind has already won
And I know we don't see eye to eye no more
We've tried a thousand times and more
And now it's all been said and done
I'm holding on until it's gone
Underneath it sucked
My name is on it too late
[?]
You know nothing, from nothing comes everything
We're not exempt, following an avenue
We walk away, don't let the outside in
The vicious cycle, a wood on fire
Like a mother's pain, with a lighter of love
And I know we don't see eye to eye no more
We've tried a thousand times
And now it's all been said and done
I'm holding on until it's gone
So over the same finite lines
We felt the pain, we felt it to escape
[?]
The world is watching
Nowhere to go
[?]
(And I know we don't see eye to eye no more
We've tried a thousand times
And now it's all been said and done
I'm holding on until it's gone)
Liar! Liar! Fuckin' liar! Fuck!
This pain won't last forever
This change is for the better
I THINK the first question mark is "Cutting inside, I'm just forever dying / Always know that [you know nothing...]"
And the last question mark is "The hands above assembling us"
