Metal scholars, today I delved into the world of DARK SIGNS, from Sundowning. My goal is to transport you to those dark streets, through a visual narrative that mirrors the lyrical themes of longing, nostalgia, and emotional turmoil. I used my synth and acoustic guitar to illustrate parts of the song without having to use copyrighted material. The song is 100% live and with no autotune whatsoever. The lyrics are set against a backdrop of darkness and fleeting glimpses of light, we accompany the journey of two individuals navigating the complexities of a troubled relationship, I'm not saying it's like a love relationship, it could be parental, etc. Through symbolic imagery and evocative storytelling, the song captures the raw emotion and introspective journey depicted in the lyrics, offering fans a captivating story of the song's poignant message. What do you think about this song?

The DARK SIGNS of Sleep Token

lyrics

Where I was raised, there was no street lights
Just pitch black and passing headlights
And where we met, there must have been dark signs
Omens in your skies
Most days you reach for safety
Remain calm, forget that you know me
And when we met I could see dark signs
Alarm bells in your eyes
And I miss the man I was the moment we left off (I might break and bend to my basic need to be loved and close to somebody)
(I might break and bend to my basic need to be loved and close to somebody)
And I hate who I have become (I might break and bend to my basic need to be loved and close to somebody)

Every time I wake up (I might break and bend to my basic need to be loved and close to somebody)
And if you saw the marks on my dashboard
The new scars that I didn't ask for
Would you call, asking for answers?
Tear my arms off
Most days you reach for safety
Remain calm, forget that you know me
When we met I could see dark signs
Alarm bells in your eyes
And I miss the man I was the moment we left off (I might break and bend to my basic need to be loved and close to somebody)
(I might break and bend to my basic need to be loved and close to somebody)
And I hate who I have become (I might break and bend to my basic need to be loved and close to somebody)
Every time I wake up (I might break and bend to my basic need to be loved and close to somebody)
And I miss the man I was the moment we left off
And I hate who I have become
Every time I wake up
When we met, I could see dark signs, oh
When we met, I could see dark signs, oh
When we met, I could see dark signs, oh
When we met, I could see dark signs, oh no
When we met, I could see dark signs, no
When we met...
