Dayseeker - Sleep In The Sea Lyrics






Darling, are you lost, adrift at sea?
There is an anchor tied to your ankle that begs to watch you sink
Is the bottom of the ocean where you want to make your bed?

I could feel you slip through my fingers and sink towards the abyss
But nothing that I did could ever keep you safe from the ocean that's filling your lungs

There is an anchor tied to your ankle that begs to watch you sink

Effervescent mind, sinking so fast
You could have been just fine if you had listened when I cried out
Stray from the tide or my words will become a distant sound
Separate from the shore and you will surely drown

My heart never felt so full, when you would wake in my bed
You made a choice to return to the waves, and now it feels like a part of me is dead
I would give anything to bring you back
But you're gone, and you sleep in the lowest depths of the sea

There is a hole in my heart
A fragment remains but never the same
You filled the space until you gave up on me
With my feet stuck in the sand and just out of reach of grabbing your hand
Your mind will sift through the past, your heart torn in half, this breath will be your last

Sleep in the sea as the anchor becomes your destiny

    Darling, are you lost, adrift at sea?
    There is an anchor tied to your ankle that begs to watch you sink
    Is the bottom of the ocean where you want to make your bed?
    I could feel you slip through my fingers and sink towards the abyss
    But nothing that I did could ever keep you safe from the ocean that's filling your lungs
    There is an anchor tied to your ankle that begs to watch you sink
    Effervescent mind, sinking so fast
    You could have been just fine if you had listened when I cried out
    Stray from the tide or my words will become a distant sound
    Separate from the shore and you will surely drown
    My heart never felt so full, when you would wake in my bed
    You made a choice to return to the waves, and now it feels like a part of me is dead
    I would give anything to bring you back
    But you're gone, and you sleep in the lowest depths of the sea
    There is a hole in my heart
    A fragment remains but never the same
    You filled the space until you gave up on me

    Your mind will sift through the past, your heart torn in half, this breath will be your last
    Sleep in the sea as the anchor becomes your destiny

  26. J.... T....

    why this nigga look so much like glenn?

  27. v.... p....

    It's kinda sad they didn't include Garret's feature anywhere in the title or the description, he played a big role in the ending sound of this song

  28. O.... K....

    so hype for sleep in the sea part 2

  29. J.... C....

    Silent Planet didn't give Rory any credit for his feature either, I don't know what is up with these bands not giving any credit but I enjoy when bands give other vocalists credit for their features

    J.... C....

    Jake Caron they sort of did on the lyrics.

    J.... C....

    Nathan Gonzalez I don't really see Garretts name anywhere in the lyrics or description

    J.... C....

    What song was Rory featured in by Silent Planet?

    J.... C....

    Nathanael Le First Mother

  30. E.... C....

    Am I the only one bothered by the extra space in the title?

  31. C.... G....

    Who is she? She's so pretty! Anyone knows?

  32. Z.... Z....

    I may stand corrected

  33. Z.... Z....

    no Jimmy lynch

  34. J.... L....

    Hey that's the dude from Silent Planet right?

    J.... L....

    no...wait... yup!

    J.... L....

    Yeah, Garrett Russell!

  35. L.... T....

    I love the location they chose for this, it's beautiful and a change from the usual settings in metal music videos

  36. B.... G....

    Too bad you ruined it with that horrible nagging scream!

    B.... G....

    too bad your president is donald trump

  37. G.... T....

    this is so good I love this song

  38. X.... ....

  48. M.... E....

  49. M.... R....

    M.... R....

    Garret Russle of Silent Planet

  50. C.... S....

    Rory is amazing.
    A true singer.

  51. d.... ....

  52. A.... ....

    Post-Hardcore has been a dying genre for a while, but I can see this band bringing it back. Such a good song

    A.... ....

    +ASpieth19 Can't let it die man :(

  53. J.... C....

  60. T.... G....

    this band is absolutely AMAZING!!!!

  61. L.... G....

    featuring ***** Silent Planet.

  62. M.... H....

    I like his cleans but he needs to learn different types of screams and add some stuff to it, the screaming just seems bland. Other than that the cleans are amazing.

  63. G.... ....

    Why isn't there anything mentioned about the guest vocalist in the description? Who is he?

    G.... ....

    Garrett from Silent Planet. they are unbelievably rad as well.

    G.... ....

    Ive eaten cookout with Garrett Russel and the rest of silent planet twice now. Rad is a total understatement.

    G.... ....

    Vocalist for silent planet

    G.... ....

    GRIM029 the lead singer of Silent Planet

    G.... ....

    He's really smart, he use to be a professional therapist, I think he's one of the best lryicist in metalcore.

  64. T.... ....

    was the guy with the long hair inhale screaming?

  65. T.... ....

    was the guy with the long hair inhale screaming?

    T.... ....

  70. L.... ....

    g.... l....

    @glenn lawless i...definitely...AGREE. 100%. love it.

  72. T.... R....

    THIS Song :3 two words* so beautyful*

  73. A.... M....

    Them and Silent Planet sound quite similar

  74. J.... R....

    I think the main reason I like this band is because it seems to be one of the most real, considering the screams and lyrics are so raw and powerful. I love it!

  75. M.... ....

    That girl is gorgeous ❤️❤️ This band is fucking awesome too ❤️

  76. A.... P....

  86. P.... D....

  89. K.... S....

    So you guys have a new album coming out this week?

  93. J.... C....

    mannnn the lead vocals (not sure his name) but he absolutely amazing for this music style. those cleans are also suuuucch a relief.

  95. d.... m....

    wish that dayseeker would be more famous, not the best band that i know, but they surely deserve to be noticed.. fuck my life, i'm just sitting at home in a shit country named Latvia can't even give a high five to Rory and other band members..

  96. 1.... ....
