- the new album So What? out now whileshesleeps...
ELEPHANT
EVERYWHERE I TURN, THERE'S A LIFE ON THE LINE,
A CURE FOR A PRICE AND FUCK IT, THERE'S AN ELEPHANT IN THE ROOM.
TURN THE PAGE, ANOTHER HEADLINE THAT YOU ALREADY KNEW,
PAINT THE PICTURE OF A LIE BEHIND THE TRUTH.
WE'RE ON A FLATLINE IN A SORRY STATE OF AFFAIRS,
LOSING THE WILL TO LIVE, LIKE WE'RE GOING NOWHERE.
THEY PUT THE FRIGHTENERS ON US BUT WE ALL HIDE SOMETHING.
ENOUGH IS ENOUGH, I KEEP ASKING MYSELF WHY US?
ENOUGH IS ENOUGH, I KEEP KILLING MYSELF BECAUSE:
YOU SAID WE'RE ONLY AS STRONG
AS THE FEARS WE CONFRONT ON THE WAY.
THEY WON'T FIND ME PRAYING FOR A HERO
THAT HIDES LIKE OUR TEARS FROM THE PAIN.
WHILE THE ANGELS SING, 'EVERYTHING WILL BE OKAY’.
CROSS MY FINGERS, POINT THE BLAME,
I DON'T BELIEVE A WORD THEY SAY.
I'D LIKE TO THINK THAT I DON'T BELIEVE IN ANYTHING,
I'M JUST A HEATHEN IN DISBELIEF
AND I KNOW, WHEN I’M DESPERATE I STILL CALL, DON'T WE ALL?
ENOUGH IS ENOUGH, WE CAN'T SEE WHAT'S IN FRONT OF US.
ENOUGH IS ENOUGH, STOP THE WORLD I WANT TO GET OFF.
YOU SAID WE'RE ONLY AS STRONG
AS THE FEARS WE CONFRONT ON THE WAY.
THEY WON'T FIND ME PRAYING FOR A HERO
THAT HIDES LIKE OUR TEARS FROM THE PAIN.
EVERYWHERE I TURN, THERE'S A LIFE ON THE LINE, A CURE FOR A PRICE
AND FUCK IT, THERE'S AN ELEPHANT IN THE ROOM.
TURN THE PAGE ANOTHER HEADLINE THAT YOU ALREADY KNEW.
CLEAN THE SLATE WITH THE WATER WE POLLUTE.
HOW MANY TIMES DO I HAVE TO DISOBEY TO BE SAVED?
WE'RE ALREADY THE CAUSE BUT WE CALL IT A MISTAKE, I BELIEVED IT.
EVEN IF IT'S JUST A FIGURE OF OUR IMAGINATION,
THE GROUND WE WALK IS SACRED
BUT THE GRAVE WE MAKE IS CLOSER TO HELL.
WE ALL HIDE SOMETHING.
Video by AARAN MCKENZIE FILMS - Hudba
i love when the breakdown hits and instead of complete mayhem people are smiling and casualy enjoying their lifes and living in the moment. Gave me chills
Jlo YES
Maybe they pretended to??
Everytime I hear that breakdown it gives me chills. Fkin love it!
Just had exactly the same feeling bro!
@@Latu6666 That's exactly what "We all hide something" in the lyrics implies.
3:45 is one of the best thing that came to my ear in a long time !
Same here.
Same here. I love that riff
Damn right
Can we all just take a minute to appreciate the end riff please.
I like the lyrics as well. Noticed lot people saying it's clićhe, I think it's refreshing to hear bands still politically motivated and not just singing about pointless concepts.
Fit for a king and WSS have delivered with their albums.
With all the same metalcore bands these days While she sleeps still continue to sound unique and isnt boring. ❤️
Parkway Driver Architects
@@patrickdamacet6085 don't think so, they go in bad way, 1 riff-chorus-breakdown-chorus...
@@patrickdamacet6085 don't got me wrong, big love for Architects seriously but holy hell is not that good if we look on previous records.
@@DNed08 Way better than the album before IMO..
@@patrickdamacet6085 100% screamo isn't my thing to be honest, some clean vocals are apreciated
Believe me, I loved this song when it first came out, but you can't deny that this goes UNBELIEVABLY hard in 2023.
I went to bed 20 Minutes ago... looks at mobile... see WSS uploaded new video... went up.. headbang for 20 minutes now... can't sleep anymore..
Same here xD
Been there done that!
proper metalhead then haha
Headbang in bus, in work, in bed ! WSS !!!
lol
Man the first "we all hide something" scream... Gives me goosebumps.. This scream felt so real! Fucking hyped on this album.. 4 days left...
That's what I missed from the band. The political lyrics, the heavier sound, everything.
This song is perfect
That sound didn't go anywhere though?
1. You Are We was political as fuck.
2. You Are We is heavier than this.
You Are We is heavier? Hurricane, In Another Now, and Silence Speaks sure as hell weren't. And those were 3 of the best.
It’s good to encourage them... but ‘perfect’ seems a bit flattering
@@natedavies954 But best doesn't mean heavier. They may be the better songs on the album but that doesn't mean they're the example for that album being heavy.
So hyped for the new album 😍🤘🏻
Pietus this Friday!!!
Not sure if you're the type that digs leaks but it leaked yesterday.
Leaked the other day
@Ø whats ur problem with their new songs?
@@Pietus a common criticism, especially on Anti-Social, is that the lyrics sound like they've been written by a 14 year old boy. Plus it's not as heavy.
I personally think that it's not as good as You Are We, but it's probably more consistent. And there's emotion in it, so I'll be buying the album. But that's just me.
Why does that riff at 3:45 bring tears to my eyes??😭
Because it is so generic.
Akhil Suresh oui
The breakdown at 3:45 is T H I C C.
"But we all hide something" gives me chills o-o
yes yes yes. less than a week until album release and yet another insane single.
Joey Twinn leaked the other day
Is there a single bad song off this frigging album? Holy shit.
CollidedGeneration While She Sleeps doesn’t write or make bad music lmao
Can't wait for the tour with Architects. Two best band in UK.
What where is that?
Dude that was how I found this band! I went to see Architects and discovered my new favorite band!
Metalcore feels like such an overdone genre, I'm so glad there are bands like While She Sleeps to breathe new life into it even after all these years
Kalyan while she sleeps and fit for rivals keep the metalcore alive
@@MrDropA Fit for rivals? M8, that band broke up and hadn't released anything since 2015. They were also not metalcore, but punk-rock. What an odd choice to pick right there....
Kalyan sorry i mean fit for a king
@@MrDropA fit for a king is def one of the best, even though they're a Christian band. Bury Tomorrow are better than ever. But to me Our Hollow Our Home is the best metalcore band around. I don't hate on an old formula if it's done well and they do it exceptionally well.
@@MrDropA laughed hard on this one lmao
Another lyrical masterpiece from wss. Easily the best band on the planet...it's such a shame they don't get more "mainstream" coverage the messages they bring across is what the majority of society needs to hear! Can't wait for the new album.👌👍
While She Sleeps is one of the most inventive and passionate bands in the world. We sorely need bands like them.
This music has never been more relevant than it is these days.. The lyrics and atmosphere speak volumes about the chaos and hypocrisy reigning in today's society
Never loose your unique sound and never stop making impactful music WSS
These guys for sure are some of the most creative in the industry today
The people grooving out at the ending breakdown were perfect.
The best breakdown ever. I've listened to it hundreds of times - never enough. Still keep comming back for more. A masterpiece.
3:44 that part sent me on maximum overdrive into hyperspace!
I love this band..♡
One of few quality metalcore bands!
Wich are the others? (Just to check here hehehe)
@@LeftSoulz Architects are pretty good. They just released an album in I think November
@@LeftSoulz Im not totally sure if they can be considered metalcore, but Bury Tomorrow and Ice nine kills are really great, and both of them released awesome new albums last year :)
Yeah i've listened to architects and loved It and Also to i9k and loved so much more, but bury tomorrow i can check later...
@@LeftSoulz August Burns Red, Ever Time I Die, Norma Jean, Phinehas, Silent Planet and Counterparts.
This is important.
Especially weird times like rn..
Killing It guys, cant wait for The album 🤟🏻
Having listened to WSS since the beginning, yes some songs are beginning to sound similar but that’s because they have largely stuck to ‘their’ sound to date but have definitely evolved in certain ways. I dig their sound and hence there is always a space in my collection for this band. Of course if they drastically changed I’m sure people would call the ‘selling out card’ pretty quick
i find their newer stuff to be largely more unique and broader. But overall WSS has their own style which i think we all appreciate.
03:45 🔥♥️🤯🙌 Mad love and respect for this band! Your raw and undiluted lyrics gives me chills!! Going against the tide of norms isn't easy at all but you guys are 🔥! Keep it up fellas! ♥️🔥🙌
Holy shit. These lads are blowing me the fuck away. The production value of the videos, the live performances, and most of all the quality of lyrical content is so high. There's not many artists these days who refuse to sell out and make easy listening songs. These guys are so passionate about their art and it really shows. You Are We was imo the AOTY of 2017 and So What? is looking to be AOTY 2019. Cannot fucking wait for this album to drop. Added bonus is that it drops on my birthday and what better present is there than a brand new While She Sleeps album? Fucking Kudos Lads
I feel bad for any other bands trying to make waves in this genre right now, these guys are absolutely killing it, watched the so what documentary for the 4th time today, love these guys and all of their songs 🤘🏽🤘🏽
3:45 blessed my ears
3:45 is my personal favorite part of the song. this fucking gives me ungodly amount of chills
Love the outro, very touching
This isn't a lyric video, this is a video, and its awesome.
Well, this is some edited stock footage material. It's sufficient for a lyric video, but I wouldn't consider it a proper music video.
Make Metalcore Great Again
Got an advert for medicine before watching this 😫 cant believe bmth sound like generic shit rock fuck 2019
@@SkillsForKills89 there was an advert like that for the guilty party tho
New As I Lay Dying album this year 💪💪💪
mefearp metalcore has always been great
The first adjective that comes to my mind is “shocking”...not a single bad song, not a single “not so good” song...,every album’s better than the previous one, each song is simply amazing
One the best metalcore bands ever, thanks guys, keep killin it
Friday is gonna be a good day for music!
The metalcore still alive for 2 great reasons WSS and Architects
It's like you're music is pure energy... just truth from the heart. Thank you and just keep doing what you do, the way you do it
This is My Energy what keeps me running in this Shity World !!! Thank You WHILE SHE SLEEPS And See You in LEEDS !!!
oh come on, 'shitty world' please stop complaining about the world, it isn't really that bad to live in is it?
@@theodepleo Well, is not like '' Shity '' means to me that the whole world is bad i just wanted to say , that their music is for me something more, something what makes me feel that i am away of these all daily problems , this all political shi* , Greediness, Selfishness, hatred. Peace brother!
This ending with "We all hide something!" is amazing!!! Love it!
For the first time in my life, I'm glad that there's an Elephant in the room.
This is why WSS is one of the best bands out there. Lyrics too close to home, feeling so real it's painful, video that fits with the message. Did not expect they'd match the level of You Are We but man they did and went beyond!
3:45 so sexy part. Definitely AOTY for me. So happy that pre-ordered :)
That riff man
Vladislav DrunkGod What about As I Lay Dying’s new anticipated album coming out?
That breakdown is 🔥
Some Kind of Master I know what AOTY stands for, wtf
Some Kind of Master Why did you feel the need to indicate that
This break down should have been longer, I'm tired of putting it back all over again and again.
03:55 Thats true, my favorit part
While She Sleeps redefine metalcore with their own way, making it more fun and unique. THIS BAND NEED TO HIGHLIGHT EVERY MUSIC FESTIVAL.
Surely one of their best songs, and imo the best in the album so far
So awesome, cannot wait for the new album and to catch you guys at a gig!!!
Both the video and the song are masterpieces on their own.
Well done !
best single so far in my opinion
A band that the world need to hear......
These guys just keep surprising me. They just know how to keep it fresh and sound new
My favorite song in new album ❤️
Loz singing melody is improve a lot
Can't wait for new album
Never click on notification faster than now.
WSS never disappoint
I just can't find the words to express how I feel about this video. Just beautiful. And like any of So What? songs this one doesn't disappoint.
This will be one of the best album releases in a LONG time...
Metalcore never dies
See you all March 1st :)
Adam Trout leaked the other day lmao
@@tye2326 Pardon?
I'm going to see them march 1st
The 1st can't come round quick enough, ganna be a good show
I haven't felt soo impacted by a song.. Me grown ass man, tearing in my car. This song moves...
And the documentary was just the cherry on top. 🖤🙌
Over a hundred times I've seen this video. Amazing (absolute) 💥💥💥
3:46 - 4:41 gives me goosebumps
Excelenteee tema, el vídeo me hizo recordar a "these colours don't run" y "even if you win, you' re still a rat", ambas de architects
Yes, ever since I came across You Are We, I was convinced that you need more recognition and you need it now more than ever. Love you stuff to the core.
The comments are proof that it’s almost impossible to make everyone happy. Got ppl saying this band sounds like they need to change up their sound, saying they are kind of the same as before.. yet.. when a group does change their sound & approach, everyone loses their shit. Like Linkin Park with One More Light & Bring Me The Horizon with AMO. it’s like how we all act differently towards the comfort of ppl we know, each album is different in its own way & the comfort we feel towards it varies.
This band is one of the best out there
March the 1st has the POWER !
The Final Boss Metalcore Band. Nice lyrics, nice message, Nice Band. It's not mainstream. Its Great !
This should have been the first single to be honest. B A N G E R
The double kick at 3:32
Wss by far my favourite band for a long time now ... They never disappoint in making their songs unique and epic in a genre where u get the same old stuff time and time again ...I so can't wait for my preorder to come in the post. So pumped for the album
Your words are so strong guys. We need more band like you.
They are following the path that Architects set with These Colours Don't Run. Good song btw!
Heard it on radio one, amazing 🔥😍
3:46-4:12 eargasm
Tears
WHILE SHE SLEEPS🤘💕
These riffs are fucking INSANE
absolutely amazing guys
Is it just me that got goosebumps after watching and listening to the entire thing?
While She Sleeps is so fuckin catchy, jesus
One does not simply dance to a While She Sleeps song
Absolute amazing🖤
2:32 Almost seems like the baby is singing "Waaaay!"
Holy shit. Real tears.
Not only a great song but a great message too 🤘🏻🤘🏻
My favorite so far. Definitely not regretting pre-ordering this one. Never change
The fucking chills dude...
WSS never ever dissapoints. If anything, they keep surprising in a good way.
This is so amazing, they're so lyricist. I love them and their songs!
I discovered this band yesterday... WAIT, THIS WAS RELEASED TODAY??
MAN THIS MUSIC IS AWESOME
The new album is perfect! I am so looking forward to seeing them tour with Architects!
While She Sleeps - Good Music as always! Great Band!
An elephant never forgets
Getting a huge blessthefall vibe from this jam and never heard that from WSS before love it!! Another banger!!
I'm a simple guy, i hear the riffs i intaclick LIKE
oh this feels like the sleeps we all know
This. This is why I love metalcore
Really good they bring out our problems , more messages like this should be spread to awaken more awareness in people !
