I can't stress enough how you need to watch the music video for fall for me but still have the lyrics next to it. The lyrics are amazing but the video adds a whole new layer of soul crushing.

I just knew "Seems your heart is locked up and I still get the combination wrong; Or are you simply waiting to save your love for someone I am not?" would hit hard. It's some of the best Vessel has written and that's saying a lot

"i know i say this alot but this might be my favorite one" yeah..sleep token does that to you. every song just grabs you and pulls you in, even when you think it cant happen to you. Vessels voice is just amazing. like a warm hug.

I predict Kyle will cry through “Fall for Me” and “Missing Limbs”They are gut wrenching, but so damn good.

The perpetual agony of unending loop. Trying to reach the unreachable.

Nice reaction guys. My interpretation is that the dancers represent Vessel's feelings - his unrelenting love - for the woman who doesn't love him back. He wants to stop loving her, so he tries to kill his feelings (the dancers) with the sword. But his feelings are too strong, and they overpower him instead. Every time he fails to numb his heart, he gains another ribbon to tie on the tree. (Only 1 dancer has a ribbon because he's already tried multiple times and failed; the other dancers have already given up their ribbons). I read somewhere else the suggestion that the setting of the video could be inside Vessel's heart.

The first time I got to see them in NYC last year, our friend from the UK (who flew in for the show) made bracelets for all of us with "TLYW" and a white ribbon tied around it, since it's her favorite song. It was just a small sea of white ribbons at barricade and Vessel came over and acknowledged the ribbons 🥹 it was wonderful, and the bracelet sits on my steering column in my car.

First time I've seen Eric truly shaken up. Looked like he was fighting a tear at the very end there. Love it

Eric's reaction at "seems your heart is locked up and i still get the combination wrong" is so real, that line gets me EVERY time, gosh i just love the way vessel words things

This song has one of my absolute favorite lines. "Seems your heart is locked up and I still get the combination wrong. Or are you simply waiting to save your love for someone I am not. Too many swallowed keys will make you bleed internally some day" The idea that this person is taking all of these peoples' love, but is refusing to give it back. The idea that accepting all of this without giving it back will kill you speaks so many volumes about his view of loneliness. Also this song live is devastating, and seeing this being sung by 12000 people at wembley when he lost his voice??? Gods... It was emotional.

I've always interpreted the line "too many swallow keys will make you bleed internally some day" to be a play on the phrase "lock your heart and swallow the key". Like, the person Vessel is speaking about constantly locks their heart up and swallows the key, but Vessel is trying to convince them that by doing that they're just harming themselves. Another note, the line "Are you simply saving your love for someone I am not" is THE most heartbreaking lyric ever.

"Im still you favorite regret your still my weapon of choosing" from bloodsport

i have a feeling theyre gonna love descending

Eric’s eyes…. That is a man who has been through some shit…. Excited to see “Fall for Me” next!!!!!

My interpretation of the video is that it's Vessel's struggle with Sleep. This is like him being "inside" the trance and the red scenario always seems like the insides of a creature. He has a weapon. He can fight back. He tries. But he fails, the woman overpowers him and his fight ends. He loses. Then he starts over again because he's still struggling. Alkaline seems like he's deeper into it and starting to push away people, maybe that are trying to rescue by killing "vessel" so the human he was can be free. There's just so many layers and still leave it oven to interpretation. This band is just something else

This music video is the MAIN one I was waiting for you to watch because mixed with the lyrics you end up relaizing more and more each time. - My view of this song with the music video is that the dancers represent the same woman in different forms. (You have a type kind of thing) - He sees this 'one' girl and follows her and she ends up leading him to every 'version' of her he has encountered. - He is constantly trying to kill his love for this person through others (who are like her) over and over and ultimatley in the end he ends up hurting himself, over and over. - When he takes the sword out I believe its metaphorical for killing his love for this person. During that portion he sings 'and I'm still full of the love you want' repeatedly. - When he is defeated he starts the song over. Like how many people will start over with someone who is like the last person they were with or they keep going back to the same person.

This song live is truly something else! When I saw them for the second time, when he sings “and I still get the combination wrong” he screamed it and it was heart shattering😭😭

I can't tell you how much this moved me live when I saw them in Detroit September 2023, I don't think I've ever cried like that at a concert in my entire life. 6,000 people all singing this like a choir with Vessel, it was a spiritual experience.

The drums and piano coming in is my favorite part, and then complete with the lyrics “seems your heart is locked up and I still get the combination wrong, or are you simply waiting, to give your love to someone I am not? Too many swallowed keys will make you bleed internally someday. And maybe you believe that in the end you will be better off that way” fucking cuts so deep. This is my favorite Sleep Token song hands down

Just my own interpretation of the sword scene; I think Vessel's aim isn't to kill the girls but to cut his attachment to them. They're frozen until he swings his sword at them and 'cuts' the invisible strings/ties binding them. But then the leader overpowers him and he falls to - and for - her again as he stabs himself in the heart. Thereby repeating the same cycle over and over.

I don’t know what makes me more emotional, this song, your reaction or knowing Fall For Me is next

He kills himself at the end of the video but ends up in the same place where the video began. He can't escape in some way. I kind of love this video. “swallowed keys” keys to escape the situation?! I never really put this video into the lore. I'm just realsing this. Damn 😂 I just really love this one ♥

Every one has said it and I'll say it again, too. The fall for me video is an absolute must! There's text that add to the Sleep Token journey.

Not only do I puzzle over where all the big drinking vessels come from, but where on earth they can be stored??! You must have mighty shelves! Great reaction and it does hit hard. They had some dancers on stage with at least 2 of the London concerts that I’m aware of. At Wembley they also joined in with Ascensionism and Rain.

Please make sure you fully watch the video for fall for me and have lyrics up. The video is amazing

It only gets more emotional from here dudes.. I'm glad you showed how it makes you feel.

I literally cry every time I hear TLYW, and watching Vessel & Co perform it live last in Anaheim was one of the most magical moments of my short 30 years on this earth.

This is inside his heart. He's battling his emotions. There is only one he can't defeat; love. No matter how many times he tries, he can't kill the love in his heart.

Thank you Kyle for letting me re-experience the emotion of seeing this for the first time. Gorgeous visuals and soundscape, this is one that my daughter and I both love.

This has been my constant favourite ever since the album came out. "Too many swallowed keys will make you bleed internally someday" - what amazing writing.

Best sone on the album. It, Fall For Me and High Water and Missing Limbs have been my theme songs for the last year

This is my favorite Sleep Token song. It hits so deep.

Love the Sleep Token journey you have been on! And I just have to say, I live for Eric's comments at the very end of the video lmao, you guys are awesome keep it up!!!!!

I've been waiting for you guys to react to this one, it's different (Obviously) but more so than the rest, and the video is amazing. The message of knowing he's in a situation where he isn't being let in to the one he desires, and he continues trying, even though it kills him inside. I remember seeing a comment that each of the ribbons he ties is an attempt, and the main dancer is the only one wearing the ribbon, while the other dancers are he emotional layers.

We need a compilation of Eric's "And remember..." quotes ASAP 😂😂😂

I will have to send it to your instas but I was fortunate enough to catch them last September. This song left a lot of us, myself included, ugly sobbing. It is perfection live. Loved this one the most guys. Thank you!

I am so excited for you listen to Fall For Me!!

FALL FOR ME MUSIC VIDEO! incoming! Love the reactions guys!

I love how everyone is eager waiting to see you reacting to the Fall For Me music video/song, because they know how deeply emotional it's going to be. I love how you value all the little details lyrically and also visually in the music video. Can't wait for the next songs ❤

I feel like Kyle is on the verge of crying in every reaction

So glad you guys finally got to this song. Absolute perfection, there isn’t a single thing wrong with this song. I did see comments saying Eric cracked, and it’s no joke, thank you for opening up and being brave enough to even experience the emotion for yourself personally, let alone doing it on camera for us. The both of you of course, no shade to Kyle brother, you’ve probably seen it before since he’s your brother, but he’s felt like the ‘hard egg’ to crack in terms of being so overwhelmed on camera, it’s just a special moment as a fan that’s been on the journey with you guys. This was seriously my most anticipated song for you guys to react to when I first found you guys, and I’m so thankful to have watched it with you. Stay safe and much love guys

This one was the first song on Tomb that hit my emotions like a Zamboni. It truly is heartwrenching 😭 Great reaction as always guys!

I'm Continously blown away by ST! Wowww. It's like we're watching a mystery with no ending, but it's painfully beautiful 💜💔

Even with not being a big ST fan myself, I have to admit watching you guys react to it makes me smile every time!!!💯❤️🤘😎

And thus, we begin with the long journey. Indeed best song of the album (in my opinion), after all, this song just broke me entirely and gave me tons of ideas and inspirations in my writing...ans it still hurts.

Sleep Token / Vessel ALWAYS make you FEEL - it’s incredible music

this song has really grown on me. its so beautiful. i believe its either his battle with sleep, or a battle within himself? the rest of this album just gets better honestly lmao

I absolutely adore this video. Beautifully done yet deadly poetic. Sleep Token aren't just a band anymore, they are an experience and your emotional reaction to it was just that. I can't wait for you guys to react to the video "The way that you were" it's so beautiful ❤️ and I have to ask but will you be catching them live at all in a few months? Seeing them in the flesh is just somethin else!! #worship 🫶🏻

This one hurts for real… arguably the best song in their discography. And the video adds great depth to the context of the lyrics. The relationship or the state of mind he cannot separate himself from no matter how hard and how much he tries… just gives me chills down my spine everytime

This is by far the best video and song I have heard in so long. I cried watching this damn video. You can feel his pain and love so much. Ugh absolutely soul crushing and beautiful.

I love how we see a battle he keeps fighting but, keeps losing. So much there. But, that's Sleep Token.

I knew the tears would be flowing. Crying with ya what a fantastic band

This was the song/music video that made me fall in love with Sleep Token. So happy to see you reacting to it

“It’s the curse of an addict to chase the thing that destroys you.” A perfect description of what Vessel must feel here

You guys are so real for that moment of silence after the video ends

Also worth considering, as we watch Vessel swinging a sword while saying "I'm still full of the love you want" - the line from Take Aim "It sends me shivers, how you love like weapons kill"

I am so glad you did this reaction, finally. I adore this song so much. It hits hard.

You can say it's your new favorite all you want!!! I'm pausing this to go download this!!!

Top-5 greatest song all time. Been waiting for you guys to get here forever!

Sweet, all-consuming, emotion. This song cuts exquisitely, thanks for sharing.

I find it crazy how much you guys spot on first listen, always takes me 2 or 3

This was and still may be my favourite Sleep Token song. 😍

Thank you for introducing me to so much amazing music. I would never have found some of this bands on my own.

This one is so personal for me - as it’s a feeling I’m currently having. The idea of loving someone you know you can never have, and being unable to cut yourself away from those feelings is just hard. And in the end it keeps hurting you over and over again. This song articulates it so well

Kyle’s face from 6:25 onward is just how I look every time I watch this music video.

The fact that I had to watch this video twice...guys... I didn't think I'd be choked up this early. And I already know the song and lyrics....💜💜

The line "Too many swallowed keys..." Is so criminally underrated. Its literally saying if you keep shutting people out of your life you're going to destroy yourself.

Seeing Kyle’s reaction to this song/video was awesome. You can tell it really hit him! This was the song that actually began my journey down the rabbit hole, after hearing the summoning. It’s still top 3 for sure. The revelatory reaction when he saw the ribbons sort of mirrored my own, but it took a couple additional watches on my part to catch 😂. Another great reaction fellas.

I was waiting for this. So happy that you watched the video. Trying to love someone over and over and it doesn't work is very basic meaning i get from this one. I love it so much and really wish Sleep Token would make more videos

Lyrically, I think this is one of my favorite songs of theirs, especially the second verse. Talking about trying combinations to unlock her heart and still not getting it wrong hurts too. He's tried everything and is still coming up short and that's just how life is. The next lines about swallowing keys gives me the feeling that he knows that the ways he's trying to appeal to her/Sleep is the wrong approach to unlocking their affection, knowing that no combintation will unlock a lock that requires a key. Visually, I really like the scene at 06:59 where she is leaning back to dodge his sword swipe. The imagery of them almost looks like opposite sides of a coin, which for me really drives home the idea from the intro line about lying an inch apart on their own continuum. So close, but so far.

Yay for Saturday sleep token reactions! I don't have a well-thought-out reason but I always got the vibe that tlyw is about vulnerability. In my opinion, Vessel is basically showing his hand and being vulnerable by letting them know he is still willing to give the relationship a fair shot (I'm still full of the love you want). He is hoping that by showing vulnerability will unlock the other's real feelings and unveil what's beneath the *freakshow talk*. *The love you want* is a weird phrase for me and always made me question if he feels this other person needs this love but they're afraid to admit it and are putting a front. In a way, it seems to me like a friends-with-benefits kind of deal that always evolves in something more and then one of the two retreats behind a closed door (swallowed keys), maybe unconsciously hurts the other and they end up breaking up but then they can't stay apart and the cycle repeats. Even though he is attempting to hurt the other person, he can also get hurt, as he's still willing to put himself out there, bare chest if you will, to stop this cycle and know once and for all if the other person is on the same page or not. Seems fitting to me for how the video ends and the cycle starts again.

You know it’s deep when the song ends, and there’s a loud moment of silence and Eric is taking a drink….

I can’t tell you how long I have waited for y’all’s reaction to this. Kyle as always I love your raw reactions.

love you guy so much! you brought me closer to sleep token. and Kyle you are killing me EVERYTIME with your reactions, just how deeply you feel everything is a gift❤

i love this somg sm man

Everything! Yes!! Thank you

I don't know why, but my interpretation of the song changed recently. I thought it was about loving someone else who doesn't love you back , but now when I hear it it's about finding love for oneself and looking for it in other people. Placing your anchor in different harbors-never setting sail, never having the combination - waiting for someone with it, swallowing other people's keys but it's only causing pain, "an inch apart from your own continuum" falling short of finding it being trapped in that cycle, "freak show talk" cutting down the hurtful words someone tells themselves.

Killer reaction guys! Loved it! It was pretty much my reaction the first time I watched it. Such a powerful video.

You guys are absolutely my favorite reaction channel. I love the emotions youe feel as you watch and listen, because mine are the same. I am so excited to see you get into TPWBYT.

It's symbolism, and beautifully shown. He's on a loop, trying to constantly fight away his love for the girl, but he can't "cut" it out, so she becomes a damaging thing and makes him harm himself over and over, repeating the same process constantly.

My take is that the red tree is a giant visual representation of Vessel's heart, and he ties a ribbon every time he tries to form a new relationship. The dancers have ribbons tied around their wrists too. He does battle with memories of past relationship(s) and in the end he can't win, he is back where he started and tries again and again. Tries to defend himself but his own weapon is used against him and he can't fight back so the cycle repeats

Please ensure you watch the "Fall For Me" video in its entirety and read the lyrics displayed on screen. Afterward, watch it again while following along with the song lyrics. Since it's only a 2-minute song, you can easily watch it twice. Get your tissues ready 💔

i cried the 1st time i heard and saw this. i love this song.

This is such a beautiful video, I love that y'all are getting to discover this album!

Damn I've never seen these guys so speechless after a song 😂

I was literally just thinking about you guys, wondering when an upload would drop. I love this song, glad tou liked it too!

This song only gets better the more you listen to it, you will catch more and more little things. Its hard to believe hes making that high pitch noise in the bridge with his voice.

Cried the first time I heard this song and the chorus cut me in half 😮😭

Kyle is crying........ OMG, He´s so pure that we need to protect him!

currently binge watching your sleep token reactions

It's so hard to decide on what song is my favorite amongst the Sleep Token discography but this album really hits home for me on most songs and it has so many great lyrics that people can relate to. I can't wait for High Water, that is definitely my favorite song off of TOMB

being a sleep token fanatic, this is one of my top 5’s

I read an interpretation for the video and thought it made a lot of sense. He is haunted by a love he had, and he's trying to kill it/her. He continues to fail, proving her hold on him is stronger.

wait until you catch up fall for me dude, mental!

I don’t know for sure but I always thought those weird red fuzzy branch looking things, to me, look like broken capillaries that are trying to heal themselves. Healing “internal damage”.

Ok so of the “tree limbs” are suppose to be veins in a body and he’s tying white ribbons around them… white ribbons are meant to be used as a representation of purity or beauty, like a white wedding dress. The ribbons also represent wishes, but you find out he keeps repeating the whole video over and over so he’s essentially making the same wish. I also think the branches look like ruptured capillaries or veins, “too many swallowed keys will make you bleed internally someday.

My interpretation of this video is this: It looks like it's taking place inside Vessel cause the walls and branches look like they are covered with viscera and blood. Also, there are red blood cells floating through the air. He's tying ribbons to the trees because they are reminders of the battles he's lost with himself. The women represent his love for the person he's singing about which is a one sided love that's causing him pain. He repeatedly battles these feelings only to lose and end up hurt again and again. That's just my thoughts. I love this song. Vessel's lyrics are so beautiful and clever.

it’s an hour long, but you guys should check out ii’s interview with drumeo. not only do you get to re-listen to a lot of great songs, but he goes into detail on how he sets up his drum parts and expresses himself in the music with all of his influences. also, it was just flat out incredible to watch him play along. it truly was mesmerizing. he is truly a world class musician. i hope you guys can check it out!!!

Been watching you’re videos for a good bit now, absolutely love seeing what Eric uses for his drinks every video 😂 It’s been an amazing time so far watching you guys experience Sleep Token’s albums and the like. Keep up the good work! ❤

The smile on my face could not be any wider tonight, seeing you guys finally experiencing this beautiful song! It's my favorite too ❤
