Lyrics: "To your eyes, I might seem half alive But to me, fiction swirled and wrote my story -Possibly told allegory In hindsight, I should have stepped light But it's too late Deception had no meaning-the mask was torn I charged, for I'm no coward! But I suppose I failed I tried to take this hour! But I suppose I failed There's only so much amends can change Before boiling over And all that I'd gained meant nothing to me For I was left field Wanting to rid me of her haunting And nothing real could stop me! But the faster I'd run, The tighter the fangs of the crest took hold Wide-eyed and turned around A stone pound in the chest-denied and downed But I still wore my crown When all odds are stacked against me And all courage split, I’ll stand my ground with a prideful prowess -Heavy is the crown I thought that I was bleeding virtue Bakarum, bakarum But all I ever did was hurt you Bakarum, bakarum And as she plays her heart before me, Put to sleep by her song I promised never to desert you… Bakarum, bakarum! Still lying to myself Come join my treasured collection of tales Beneath the onus upon my height, Was there a sliver of the man I used to be? Wide-eyed and turned around A stone pound in the chest-denied and downed But I still wore my crown When all odds are stacked against me And all courage split, I’ll stand my ground with a prideful prowess Heavy, the sucker’s crown"

This is not a song, this is an epic. Justin isn't a lyricist, he is a poet

You can absolutely tell how much emotion and heart this man pours into his art. This plus the powerful vocals creates a beautiful and intense sound that's totally astounding. Keep up the good work

The end break down of this song has got to be one of the best in all of music.

Holy shit, dude! The intention, the presence, the vocals, and the book. This is flat-out amazing, and I'm going to buy your albums first-thing next payday.

fucking right!

honestly, this is some of the most inspirational stuff i have seen, the fuckiing creativity and vocal capabilities are amazing

You play and sing with your heart. This is an important part that is often overlooked. Subscribed for that.

The last 4 "Heavy the sucker's crown" are fucking legit..Jeez.

Loved this, especially the build up at 4:40 totally expected a roar, then you let me down... Then you came back and made Chester dance in his grave. Masterpiece

can't wait to buy the third album and the book. been addicted since the amnaeon days

Danila Yakushev The Hungry Lights albums are based of a book series Justin is writing called 'From Windfall to Hell'

FINALLY. Now I can tell you how amazing your songs are. And your performances on the vídeos are great. Don't stop doing this!

imo the 2nd album was actually an improvement over the 1st. Awry Ascent was SO good and I didnt think improving over that was possible. But you did it! DUDE I LOVE YOUR MUSIC

this is too fucking amazing. i showed my mom and she asked "why is this person not famous?" and i asked the same thing, your honestly the most easily talented and most beautiful voices to listen to man. if i was rich, you best know id give you as much as i could. seriously your amazing dont think any less than that. :edit: i really hope you see this i truly mean it man much love

I fucking love you man. Every time, every song, every story. There's so much pain inside of me that resonates with it.

Found this project in 2016 and I’m just as obsessed today, maybe even a greater appreciation. Justin you’re so fucking talented it’s unreal never stop creating this spectacular art. All around perfect

Sometimes I just click on one of your songs and leave it onKZread auto-play and I hear songs that I have heard on the album but never on their own! I never realised how much I loved this particular one until just now :3 you performance as always is incredible! Cannot wait for the 4th album XD

How do you say "Downed" in 5:18 ??? That is the greatest voice I've ever heard

Some of the singing reminded me of coheed..you do it all

This is my favourite, it Angers me that it doesn't have more attention😠👿👹🔫

i admittedly havent even heard the official version of this song but this vid is one of my fav vocal performances ever .. so much perfection so much emotion & theatrics i LOVE ITTT

Found this cause of his friends page....he was goofy there and a bada** here. I was pleasantly surprised. #subbedsohard

i friking love the intro! you re the best dude! greetings from Argentina :D

At 4:18 you can see all of Prill's helplessness and longing die as he accepts his reality and soldiers forward into whatever oblivion may await. If he's a sucker, then a sucker he will be.

woow Amazing song

love your albums!

Insane vocals. It speaks to the soul

Incredible control!

Why aren't the songs in movies yet? Damn Justin this shit is still mind-boggling years later

This is my song for this album. Something crawled out of you and died on this track and I fell in love ❤❤❤

Havnt related to music this much since the days of Korn and machine head

This chorus is gonna be stuck in my head for days and I’m not complaining about it 💙

Justin you're such an inspiration to me

You are amazing man!!! Keep doing this music 🤘🤘

Some of your songs should really get a music video

I love this man amazing beautiful and unmatched

SH!T BRO..... This seem more like a war cry..... EPIC, SAVAGE, HEART....TRUTH 🤘🤘

wow gr8 voice awesome

Still wishing this had way more views.. Such a talented person people need to see!

At the 2 minute mark he sounds just like Coheed.

Wow. I’d have to think about this more before I made any intelligible statement other than that may be the most dynamic use of vocals to tell a story I’ve ever heard. That was badass.

Unbelievable your a fucking genius thank u for being on this earth u are extraordinary...wow...great performance

Man sometimes you sound like rush, and it gives me chills. So sick.

The intro looks like fothcrah :3 great song ❤

Mohamed Alshekh I'm slightly triggered that you haven't seen his intention... if you had maybe you wouldn't have made the comment

All I have to say is, you are offically my new favorite artist. You have now beaten out Black Veil Brides in my eyes, who I've been listening to since i was 12.. Damn dude, youre amazing.

i love improvising on my guitar along with your music, ....depending on my mood I can go way off script or stay super melodic ;●)

I fucking love this song. If I could see my most watched videos, this and constancy would be number one and two.

Impressive. Only heard your stuff yesterday, and you've topped a couple of bands I considered my favourite .. Very good.

Noice

I see a lot of Maynard influence

My nipples went hard. That orchestral sound combined with the raw power of the vocals hits the spot.

EPICCCCC....."I thought that I was bleeding virtue Bakarum, bakarum But all I ever did was hurt you Bakarum, bakarum And as she plays her heart before me, Put to sleep by her song I promised never to desert you… Bakarum, bakarum!

Wow. I'm gonna completely honest, I'm not sure how I feel about this yet, I liked it but I disliked it at the same time but I am definitely in awe at the effort and talent uve witnessed, I will definitely be binging your music as I'm very intrigued by your style. Props brother 🤙

my tshirt just got here paid for avenged sevenfold's

I wish so much the lyrics from "second best"

If tool, lamb of god and coheed and cambria had an orgy, this is what is would sounds like.

this awful feeling when you wanna sing on the same style but actually got a kitty - like voice :(

I enjoy all your music. But this song....this song....if I randomly heard it on the radio not knowing you..I would think it’s a legit band. Not saying you aren’t legit just saying this ranks with famous acts. This song is killer. 🤟🏼

Why do I keep hearing "Macaron"...

I lost my virginity after performing this song

If you could add subtitles for your non-english native supporters

Can I be you
