Biffy Clyro - Victory Over The Sun Lyrics






Trees will speak before you listen
Oh my God, no one knows that
We can barely stand each other
It's not right, no it's not fair
Cause I'd wait anywhere for you
Would you wait for me?

Bleeding tears is the least of our problems here
We can moan our family's gone, blistered feelings
All we have's diseased organs
And I'd die anytime for you
Would you die for me?

Keep digging for the rest of your days
Say something please it's time to pay
Smoke crack for me, read jack for me,
At this time I'd let you spit in my face

I can only make you see the moon,
You can touch it but that's up to you
This is happening because of you
Stay special brother you stay true

We can change the world despite all our enemies
We're fighting on, listen to your heart and sing
Pray for love, it feels like a memory
If we hold on, there's a victory over the sun

Collapse in front of all of your peers
Stop bleeding, keep blocking your ears
Eating babies, drinking black brandy,
Squinting all night through your demonic haze

I can only make you see the moon,
You can touch it but that's up to you
This is happening because of you
Stay special brother you stay true

We can change the world despite all our enemies
We're fighting on, listen to your heart and sing
Pray for love, it feels like a memory
If we hold on, there's a victory over the sun
Victory over the sun
Victory over the sun
Victory over the sun
There's a victory over the sun

    I get a clan vibe off of this like simon is trying to form an army of weak people and make them really strong but im not sure

  34. H.... ....

    Heard this on the radio for the first time the other day. Pretty good song 👍🏼👌🏼

  35. E.... K....

    i like the way, how the ordinary rock instruments are in harmony with classical music instruments - how they sound together, it add an other meaning of the whole song ,
    nice work (y) :) :D :P

  36. M.... S....

    Best song ever

  39. d.... ....

    been binging on this band since friday, havent found a single song that is "okay", each one is either good or great.

  40. D.... R....

    this song is f**king quality 👌👌

  41. F.... C....

    This song always gives me goose bumps every time

  42. E.... ....

    i always loved guitar hero games because there were songs and bands i hadn't discovered like this one :) don't hate on people who came here because of GHL. I have discovered one of my top favourite bands - tool- thanks to GH games!

  43. K.... ....

    Is this an homage to the Russian futurist opera?

  44. R.... S....

    Guitar Hero Live ;)

  45. A.... J....

    best part is when they are all getting delivered. Wabam! AhAHh

  46. C.... ....

    I love the fact that he doesn't totally edit out his accent.

    C.... ....

    cos they are jocks and proud :D c`mon tha BIFF they also have such a strong fan-base with us back home :) theyve worked their backsides off in gigs in Scotland for years to get where they are, nicer bunch o lads you'll na`er meet!

  47. K.... 6....

    See them tomorrow, Oct 23. in Munich Zenith ;-)

  48. A.... ....

    Can someone please explain what the video is about.

    A.... ....

    This is really a good question! I love the sound of this song... but I still wonder what the video tries to show me. Is it a story about a a sect? A cult ? A philosophy? A way of life?

    A.... ....

    I think it's meant to be a cult

    "We can moan our family's gone, blistered feelings
    All we have's diseased organs
    And I'd die anytime for you
    Would you die for me?" - reference to cult all killing themselves?

    "Stay special brother you stay true" - like the members of the cult?

    "Collapse in front of all of your peers
    Stop bleeding, keep blocking your ears
    Eating babies, drinking black brandy,
    Squinting all night through your demonic haze" - like the cult is saving people from satanism?? and if you turn way you go towards satan??


    just guesses

    A.... ....

    Romy Nicol Great Point! That might be it but i dont understand everyone dropping on the floor and looking possesed. 😂

    A.... ....

    The song was written about/for Ben and his alcoholism, I believe, so perhaps the video is portraying being completely consumed by something (symbolised in the video as being possessed) and the people running away are perhaps symbolic of escaping a problem which would really be Ben overcoming drinking. The fact Simon is there waiting at the end could perhaps be linked to the lyrics,
    'I would wait anywhere for you, would you wait for me?'
    suggesting he is always there for Ben. That's pretty much my conclusion of the video, anyway.

  49. b.... ....

    best song on the double album for me. Love the guitar melody, dual vocals, orchestration, guitar riff, build up and epic chorus.

    b.... ....

    billyblackburn87 I'm totally with you, this song is all around perfect. The build up makes you expect a big chorus, and you certainly get it!

    b.... ....

    billyblackburn87 One of my favourites on the album. I don't really enjoy the buildup but I love the rest of the song so much.

  50. M.... ....

    That tempo cx if I ever play the drums I can easily go off track 😂

  51. B.... s....

    I love the rifts in this song

  52. j.... 2....

    vine aqui por guitar hero

  53. F.... G....

    This the best song on guitar hero

  54. A.... ....

    please all you guitar hero dweebs fuck off! no one cares that you play guitar hero! or that you learned this song from guitar hero! if you had to learn who biffy clyro are through guitar hero then you live under a fucking rock!

    A.... ....

    Dude, people discover music at diffrent times and diffrent ways. calm the fuck down

    A.... ....

    +SilverDust Thank you. I'm glad I found this song on Guitar Hero. Now I know who they are. I want to learn more about them and listen to more of their music. Older fans should encourage us to listen to more of their songs not critize us for not knowing about it sooner or the source from which it came. Everybody finds music differently old or new

    A.... ....

    so what if people learned the song through guitar hero. Get a grip child

    A.... ....

    so what if people learned the song through guitar hero. Get a grip child

    A.... ....

    AdmiralOddSock so ur saying it's bad for a underated artist that deserves way more popularity to be featured on a AAA title game to Give it exposure to people that don't know him, you are retarded. that's how new fans are born. the start of becoming a fan is liking a song they made and then checking out his other songs.

  55. N.... T....

    Anyone else going to the concert in Glasgow on Saturday

    N.... T....

    BELLAHOUSTON!!!!!!!!!!

    N.... T....

    On the megabus now!;)

  56. J.... L....

    No f**k!! Only million views!!!!

  57. H.... ....

    my favourite biffy clyro song

  58. A.... S....

    beautiful song

  59. A.... ....

    Going to see them in November in Ireland!!! Can't wait. That line "Smoke crack for me" makes me so happy o.o

    A.... ....

    Belfast November 27th? I'm going too.

    A.... ....

    Same here!

    A.... ....

    Yep! :D

  60. S.... L....

    If only I could enter a room and Simon be sitting there waiting for me.

  61. M.... S....

    beseks brah

  62. B.... ....

    Guitar hero live 🤘🏻

  63. r.... ....

    this was in guitar hero? mon the biff

    r.... ....

    it's in the new Guitar Hero Live, yes...

    r.... ....

    I can play that stuff on a real guitar. :D

    r.... ....

    KlausDoitschlaaand i can do both :D

  64. m.... ....

    I'm here cos a p4 or primary 4 or 4th grader basically a 8 year old gave an amazing performance on my last day of primary school ( I think it's elementary in usa)

  65. S.... ....

    at 0:26 is it Yara from Game of thrones?

    S.... ....

    Doesn't even fucking look like her

  66. J.... G....

    I'm here because Biffy Clyro, fuck GH Live. 😊

    J.... G....

    Chef Gordon standing up for people who might not know much about Biffy Clyro by referring to the band as "him" doesn't help anyone lol

    J.... G....

    Ryan McGuigan I refer all bands that have the lead singers name I refer to them as he or she, it's just easier That way to me

    J.... G....

    Well one of the greatest things about Guitar Hero as a franchise is it helps bands reach new audiences, and instead of hating on it maybe be grateful that the game allowed this great song to reach a larger audience. I'm sure Biffy Clyro are pretty happy that so many people like to play their songs in the game

    J.... G....

    Joe Guiney same

  67. C.... ....

    9/8 time signature sounds fucking awesome.

    C.... ....

    I think it's alternating 5/4 and 4/4 bars rather than 9/8 :)

    C.... ....

    +Charlie Penny either way, sounds fucking awesome.

    C.... ....

    thought it was just a shifting time signature from 9/8 to 8/8 to 7/8, makes a little more sense to me musically like that, but i dunno im not biffy

  68. L.... B....

    Wats with all the damn hippies around him

  69. L.... B....

    and like bones exposed by of mice and men

  70. g.... ....

    Who's here because of an art research in their free time for mental lulz, only me I guess.

    g.... ....

    @Anny Jamrock Finally another slightly weirder soul.

  71. T.... R....

    THAT riff gets me every time. Sexy biffy is sexy.

    T.... R....

    oddly enough most sexy stuff is sexy.

  72. S.... B....

    Civil Youth brought me here. I dig this so much!

  73. J.... D....

    Every song they gave "Broken Tide" on the game was just Amazing.

    J.... D....

    Hi.I'm.Jackie Nalls Guitar Hero Live? If so, then I agree!

  74. P.... ....

    I probably am responsible for half of the views on the song.

    P.... ....

    watching this video 500,000 times would take over 92 years, so I'm impressed with your dedication.

    P.... ....

    +ThePoodlenoodler do you even math? 500000 times would be 2million minutes = 33,333 hours, 1388 days = 3.8 years

    P.... ....

    @Giancarlo Matzumura Gonzáles "Do you even math?"

    No.

    P.... ....

    Me the other half

    P.... ....

    Who even are u

  75. r.... h....

    finally finished this song on guitar hero live expert mode :D

    r.... h....

    lol u cant even lose

    r.... h....

    like, no misses bruh ;)

    r.... h....

    +Robin Haring nice bro

  76. I.... T....

    Guitar Hero Live all the way i play on expert i mostly get 100 percen on all songs what difficulty do u play on

    I.... T....

  77. A.... ....

    Who's here because Gutaur Hero Live

    A.... ....

    +Obliteration Falls HD I did. Sort of. I first listened to the song on GHL, downloaded the song on my phone, and then found this.

    A.... ....

    +Axis Gaming Oh ok

  78. M.... ....

    This is so beautiful!

  79. C.... P....

    Its sad how i only discovered this song through guitar hero 2 years later... Such a sick tune!! :))

  80. A.... G....

    My favourite from Biffy Clyro so far ..

  81. t.... ....

    this song is so good. it sounded very positive and uplifting, until I saw the video. the video is awesome as well, but paired with the song, it makes me cry.

  82. S.... ....

    Great song but it's disappointing that this bands music is so preachy and religious infused. Big turn off. Can't really take a religious band seriously. Cults aren't really my thing. Sorry. Still a good song and I gave it a thumbs up. I always assume European bands aren't religious since generally the European population are highly intelligent people hence why their religiosity percentages are so low. Oh well.

    S.... ....

    +Sheppy99 Biffy Clyro aren't a religious band. Your post is so full of ignorance. Please go back to your American cave and go eat a double cheeseburger. Where'd you even hear that Europeans are by definition not religious? Do you have any knowledge of world history AT ALL?

    S.... ....

    +Sheppy99 I don't understand why you think they are religious. If you listen to the actual lyrics you would hear that they are sometimes mocking of religion and sometimes on the fence. The whole video is about how dangerous evangelism and cult like behaviour can be. It's literally anti organised religion.

    S.... ....

    +Sheppy99 Reminds me of that age-old riddle. An athiest, a vegan, and a crossfitter walk into a bar. Which one will tell you about their superiority first?

    You must be ridiculously insecure about yourself to post a comment about how intelligent you are. Are you that desperate for validation from strangers on the internet? If you were really as enlightened as you think you are, you wouldn't feel so threatened by religion.

    I mean, you claim you listened to the full album and couldn't make it to the third song? Dude, Different People and Black Chandelier are both about darker sides of personal relationships. Not religious in the slightest. Which you would know and understand if you actually took some time to listen. Victory Over the Sun is about the band nearly falling apart because of the drummer's alcoholism. I mean, for a guy who seems so opposed to religion, you seem awfully obsessed with seeing it where there is none... Almost like... A very religious person. Man, I hope you appreciate irony.

    The band aren't religious at all. And they've said so many times. But here's a dirty little secret for you: it's perfectly fine to be interested in religious iconography and mythology without being religious. Just like it's okay to be interested in any fictional iconography and mythology. Now take this message, and go tell all your fedora-wearing, neckbeard-growing, compulsive-masturbating internet friends.

    S.... ....

    You don't know the band, they have always been so ironic when it comes to religious topics. They don't believe in religion, Simon says that in a lot of interviews, and just pay attention to songs like God And Satan, and some others, he's always criticizing religion.

    S.... ....

    Sheppy99 I know this is an old comment section but what the ever living fuck the same band that has lyrics that call God a cunt are fucking religious

  83. J.... M....

    This isn't Malevich and Matyushin's 1913 Cubo-Futurist Opera...

  84. V.... ....

    what"s the voice effect called he"s doing? Like doubling or something with an octave in between? That scottish band with a girl singer did that too a while ago, cant remember the name, they had titles like 'soak up the sun" Not saying his voice sucks, but double layering it makes it sound better in fact.

    V.... ....

    It's just a harmonic echo

    V.... ....

    And yes it sounds amazing

    V.... ....

    Can't think what Band you mean, maybe Garbage "soak up the Sun" was by Sheryl Crow

  85. T.... K....

    I can't find the end time of this song.

    T.... K....

    +Thomas Kiernan 4.03

    T.... K....

    +Thomas Kiernan 9/8 if you're looking for time signature

  86. �.... ....

    Beautiful song, i know this in Guitar hero live.

    Grande! Pure io!

  87. L.... S....

    Who else came here from guitar hero live?

    L.... S....

    I came from victory over the sun futurist opera

    L.... S....

    I'm here because I've supported this band for a decade now

    L.... S....

    fuck off!

    L.... S....

    Me bruh😅

  88. G.... S....

    When the Canary Island Volcano erupts. What will you be doing, getting the hell out of dodge, or go to church or temple and pray to "God" that things will be alright?

    G.... S....

    I'll be running straight into it with my best suit and a murderous grin. My end will be on my terms.

    G.... S....

    +Samuel Sheridan Good answer!

  89. J.... ....

    I like the time signature and arrangement, but I think it's a bit cheesy... The vocals are not my cup of tea.

  90. A.... ....

    at 0:26 is mayim bialik????? º__º???

    A.... ....

    I hope so

  91. T.... W....

    This song is going to be in Guitar Hero Live!

  92. A.... B....

    How the fuck this has just 900 k views and the likes of Taylor Swift over 100 m??

    A.... B....

    @ohalistair bro that real music is not just concerts, its the lyrics and the stories behind the music

    A.... B....

    if u like this u should check out puzzle. an amazing album by them

    A.... B....

    Biffy don't need that ballshit. They've probably been in the top 5 live bands over the last 5 years!

    A.... B....

    I agree Biffy should have more but seriously Taylor Swift is actually pretty good. I mean boo music I am not meant to like because I like other music.

    A.... B....

    Abhishek Basnyat I

  93. g.... ....

    I am airdrumming the hell out of this amazing song! \m/

  94. M.... ....

    This song is seriously one of the best ever made. This is what Rock music should look like. Biffy Clyro is GOD.

  95. A.... C....

    I've been a fan since coming across their album" puzzle" around five years ago, if you haven't listened to that album yet I strongly recommend it, it's an incredible album. their albums" vertigo of bliss" and" blackened sky" are both equally good albums, their early albums are very experimental both in their competition and vocals.

  96. A.... S....

    i am aaron

    A.... S....

    Well done.

    A.... S....

    @Aaron Storey No, you're Aaron. Not aaron.

    A.... S....

    So am I.
