@@truthBtold-ip2ur I like john Cooper as well but I don't think they around alike at all. John's voice is a lot gritter and Brandon's is smoother. That's how I hear them. It's all personal opinion.
When I worked a job and a half and closed down the bars I would go for days without sleeping. “It’s like the days pass slower than the nights last” is a perfect description of insomnia. Rock on Atreyu!
I definitely miss the screaming from previous albums but damn this is awesome. Brandon’s singing parts were always my favorite, his voice is unique. It’s not old Atreyu, im glad they’re still making music. Just need some guitar solos then it be 🔥🔥🔥
This song is so true. Right now in my life I feel like there is a lot of pressure on me. As an individual you have no one to depend on but yourself. Life is quickly passing us by, it’s like I work to live and live to work. Let’s not forget about the time we have now and everything in between. We are the ticking of the clock as time passes us by…
I remember 20 years ago the first time I listened to Atreyu I thought to myself: This band describes all the things I'm feeling, is awesome. Now, 20 years later, still hits that spot. Thank you for your art.
Man, saw these guys in Bozeman, MT a couple months before they finalized The Beautiful Dark of Life album. Would love to see them again in Montana since the first was an entire show of goosebumps and chills from a band that I’ve been rocking to for all of my adult life. Love seeing the success and expanding popularity while not losing who they truly are. 10/10 gentleman. Thank you for your music.
Lyrics: I wish I could fall asleep Thoughts of peace are haunting me Begging for a lucid dream My mental state is crushing me TV static, blinking eights Eyes wide open, can't escape I'm not breathing but it's all the same Is living just a losing game? Can't keep my head up I'm drowning underwater Life is getting harder Will I sink or swim? It's like the days past Slower than the nights last I just need a break, man Will I sink or swim? Insomnia Insomnia Will I sink or swim? Insomnia Insomnia Will I sink or swim? Insomnia I wish my brain could simply change like the weather But here I am, it's pouring rain without a fucking umbrella Strangers are screaming but I'm here all alone The walls come crashing down on me As I Echo my heart beat Shatter my lungs I can't escape my thoughts So I'll just swallow my tongue Spilling these words in blood onto a blank page I swear, I didn't feel this way back when I was young I swear, I didn't feel this way back when I was young Can't keep my head up I'm drowning underwater Life is getting harder Will I sink or swim? It's like the days past Slower than the nights last I just need a break, man Will I sink or swim? I'm taking my chances I'm leaving my sanity Buried it down in this hole in me (buried it down) I'm losing the battle I start to unravel Until there is nothing that's left in me Can't keep my head up I'm drowning underwater Life is getting harder Will I sink or swim? It's like the days past Slower than the nights last I just need a break, man Will I sink or swim? Insomnia Insomnia Will I sink or swim? Insomnia Insomnia Will I sink or swim? Insomnia
I hope they open a small space of their heart for us in Mexico and can come to Guadalajara Jalisco, as well as Monterrey and Mexico City, other bands, like underoath, alesana, Memphis may Fire, slipknot who return on their anniversary again and have delighted us with their music, so we are looking forward to you coming
Absolutely love this band for life! ❤ my 10 year old and 13 year old want so badly to see you guys live, but not sure that I’ll get to make that happen. Maybe one day
New fan, due to this song absolutely jumping out and smacking me accross the face in the first 30 seconds. thank you youtube algorithm. Now to go down a rabbit hole with them!
One of the most favorite songs on this album🖤I was really waiting for the video for this song to be released. I would also like to see the video for the title song of this album!!

I really liked this! I know everyones complaining about them not being as heavy anymore but they made songs like this before.. the first song I heard from Atreyu back in the day was "Falling Down" and it's a lot like this in my opinion. They make good music regardless
Go see them live. Oh, wait. Shit, sorry. That would be more expensive than watching this shit for free on CZcams. You know that song? Still exists. This shit doesn't change that.
MAN how cool would it be if Atreyu recovered "When Two Are One" from their Lead Sails | Paper Anchor album!?! 🔥🔥 Just winged it again and put their own unique spin on it?? Yeah. They could totally pull it off. ❤️🔥
If you help him stand up as high as hes ever been you can listen to a voice you'll hear again chin up chin up hes sad back then all the way back hurts him I think hes pretty and brave lives in. Roooar yep I heard him he just roared agaiiin
As someone’s been a long time fan but as a massive death grip from yesterday fan boy this song wouldn’t look out of place on that album it’s a really good song
It's Atreyu, not one album I can't start on song one and finish all the way through. When I'm asked what my favorite of something is I usually have a few that I juggle with. But with bands never been a problem Atreyu is my first answer always. Then I struggle with 2nd.
![The Devil Wears Prada - Reasons (feat. LØLØ) [Official Visualizer]](/img/n.gif)
Brandons voice is definitely one of a kind.
Great voice, mid song.
Definitely 🔥👏
sounds like the lead singer of skillet.
skillet singer??? almost identical
@@truthBtold-ip2ur I like john Cooper as well but I don't think they around alike at all. John's voice is a lot gritter and Brandon's is smoother. That's how I hear them. It's all personal opinion.
That first wig on Brandon got me 💀. His hair used to look just like that way back when I first started listening to Atreyu 😂
Best atreyu song i’ve heard since high school (12yrs ago). Absolutely love it

My favorite track on the album!
Absolutely
Me too!
The opening sounds like a song that belongs on the movie A Nightmare Before Christmas. Love this song

You have no idea how many times I've played this song since the album came out!!!!!!
I remember 20 years ago the first time I listened to Atreyu I thought to myself: This band describes all the things I'm feeling, is awesome. Now, 20 years later, still hits that spot.
Thank you for your art.
Good lordt that chorus is chefs kiss the tone is just 🫠🫠
Auto tune turned up to 11.
@@Sailor1010 auto-tune creates a pitch-shifting robotic effect, this is NOT what's happening here.
That's what friends are for!
I really love the pounding drum on this in particular. So good.

Incredible vocals ❤
I’m new to the band and absolutely in love. You guys are great. Keep up the good work. ❤️
wow Atreyu made a video for my sleepless nights this song is fire
song of the year
Well, my life now has a theme song. Thanks!
Bro wtf did I stumble upon
I love it
One of the most underrated bands of all time is what
Their old albums are way better
@@gtamike_TSGK Both their old and new albums are good but okay
Found this band in 2001. The Curse was their cleanest album to listen to from beginning to end. They're missing the key component which was Alex
Now that's what I call Let's stay awake and make music.
And the video was amazing.
Lyrics:
I wish I could fall asleep
Thoughts of peace are haunting me
Begging for a lucid dream
My mental state is crushing me
TV static, blinking eights
Eyes wide open, can't escape
I'm not breathing but it's all the same
Is living just a losing game?
Can't keep my head up
I'm drowning underwater
Life is getting harder
Will I sink or swim?
It's like the days past
Slower than the nights last
I just need a break, man
Will I sink or swim?
Insomnia
Insomnia
Will I sink or swim?
Insomnia
Insomnia
Will I sink or swim?
Insomnia
I wish my brain could simply change like the weather
But here I am, it's pouring rain without a fucking umbrella
Strangers are screaming but I'm here all alone
The walls come crashing down on me
As I
Echo my heart beat
Shatter my lungs
I can't escape my thoughts
So I'll just swallow my tongue
Spilling these words in blood onto a blank page
I swear, I didn't feel this way back when I was young
I swear, I didn't feel this way back when I was young
Can't keep my head up
I'm drowning underwater
Life is getting harder
Will I sink or swim?
It's like the days past
Slower than the nights last
I just need a break, man
Will I sink or swim?
I'm taking my chances
I'm leaving my sanity
Buried it down in this hole in me (buried it down)
I'm losing the battle
I start to unravel
Until there is nothing that's left in me
Can't keep my head up
I'm drowning underwater
Life is getting harder
Will I sink or swim?
It's like the days past
Slower than the nights last
I just need a break, man
Will I sink or swim?
Insomnia
Insomnia
Will I sink or swim?
Insomnia
Insomnia
Will I sink or swim?
Insomnia
this song gives me chills everytime I hear it, it's goddamn amazing 😍
Great song
long time atreyu fan, i love the vibes and sound of this
I love you Brandon Saller.
But I also miss Alex Varkatza
Brandon should take notes from All That Remains
@bobjenks8642 all that remains turned trash with overcome. Their latest single is the best thing they've done in a decade
I hope they open a small space of their heart for us in Mexico and can come to Guadalajara Jalisco, as well as Monterrey and Mexico City, other bands, like underoath, alesana, Memphis may Fire, slipknot who return on their anniversary again and have delighted us with their music, so we are looking forward to you coming
thank you for sharing i really like this song
Havent listened to Atreyu in years, this is a banger tho, gonna started listening to some more
Absolutely love this band for life! ❤ my 10 year old and 13 year old want so badly to see you guys live, but not sure that I’ll get to make that happen. Maybe one day
Whoever read this comment. I wish you all the best, may the light be with you
The band that got me into heavier music back in 2011-2012 GG guys stoke to see content still \m/
this needs more views. Y'all still going strong
Dude the chorus what a surprise
Cool tune
I've had insomnia the past year. I haven't heard Atreyu since high school. This is an unexpected and eerie coincidence, however, amazing song.
Hell yeah
I've been a huge fan of Atreyu since I first heard the song Bleeding Mascara, This album shines as the top album for me. it's perfect.
I'm scrolling thru insomnia related videos and i accidentally stumbled here and discover a gem ✨🔥
Absolutely amazing. ❤
🚨This whole album is a banger !!
god i miss alex varcats vocals :(
Miss him so much you don't even know his name
Didn't he take over on main vocals? Like isn't that him singing rn?
Nevermind I thought the drummer was Alex mah bad.
Me too. Brandon is fantastic (his voice's so fuckin perfect), but I fell in love with old Atreyu with Alex.
@@Smokie1523😂😂😂
Good song ,Love it! Long live atreyu..
Atreyu dropp a new song? Hot damn time to dig out the ol skinny jeans.

Banger. I made it here after riding the nostalgia trip
About MF time! missed you guys bad!
The twerking at 2 min 4 seconds though 😂
Sometimes my head feels just like this 😅
I still absolutely adore how all of these new videos are just weird as hell
HERE SINCE 2004 RESPECT ATREYU!!!!!!!
Brandon's voice is what made (and still makes) Atreyu great! Period!
Alex was the man.. The two combined made them great
Period
One of the most favorite songs on this album🖤I was really waiting for the video for this song to be released. I would also like to see the video for the title song of this album!!

I know what the problem is, it’s not insomnia, you tried sleeping at a slumber party

I just seen them and they don't sound the same without Alex..😭 come check out videos
bring back Her Portrait in Black
Go see them live.
Oh, wait.
Shit, sorry.
That would be more expensive than watching this shit for free on CZcams.
You know that song? Still exists. This shit doesn't change that.
MAN how cool would it be if Atreyu recovered "When Two Are One" from their Lead Sails | Paper Anchor album!?! 🔥🔥 Just winged it again and put their own unique spin on it?? Yeah. They could totally pull it off. ❤️🔥

Atreyu = 🐐. Even back 12-13 years ago ❤️🔥
12-13 years ago?! Das it?! 2000's Atreyu or nothin!
@@nickg2308True! 🔥
Saw atreyu open for Ink on the Trinity of terror tour kick ass opening act
I miss the old Atreyu.
Dad rock!!!
thats a tasty little hook
Major Falling In Reverse vibes on this song.
great
If you help him stand up as high as hes ever been you can listen to a voice you'll hear again chin up chin up hes sad back then all the way back hurts him I think hes pretty and brave lives in. Roooar yep I heard him he just roared agaiiin

Whoa Nice to see you Guys 😅
👌🏻✨
Anyone else find it ironic CZcams recommended this for me as I was scrolling at 3am and couldn't sleep?
As someone’s been a long time fan but as a massive death grip from yesterday fan boy this song wouldn’t look out of place on that album it’s a really good song
Just doesn’t feel the same

I still listen to untitled finale cause of your drums and angelic voice
