Dayseeker - The Color Black Lyrics






Bruised and bleeding the embers glow
You couldn't cover her shade of gold
The victim of your own attack
A waste of breath, distorted past
Your soul forever remains the color black

Wounded and scarred
Open your arms
So apathetic when you let it leave a mark
Spineless, you're violent
When you can't get away from yourself
You treat your closest like wasted moments
(Bruised and bleeding)
So blame your father
When you are the cancer
She can't get out of bed, how could she leave
Too scared to face reality
If you could think without your fist
And feel the pain that you inflict
Surely you would have to cut your limbs
But your soul is the color black

Spineless, you're violent
When you can't get away from yourself
You treat your closest like wasted moments
(Bruised and bleeding)
So blame your father
When you are the cancer
She can't get out of bed, how could she leave
Too scared to face reality
If you could think without your fist
And feel the pain that you inflict
Surely you would have to cut your limbs
But your soul is the color black

Bruised and bleeding
The embers glow
You couldn't cover her shade of gold
The victim of your own attack
A waste of breath, distorted past
Your soul forever remains the color black

Bleeding but the embers glow
Reflecting her shade of gold
Watching her as she turns her back
You remain the color black
Bleeding but the embers glow
Reflecting her shade of gold
Watching her as she turns her back
You remain the color black

  2. m.... m....

    This album is amazing just picked it up today and every song is deep and rorys voice is amazing as well this band needs more recognition because they have a lot more talent then a lot of big bands out there

  3. M.... C....

    I discovered this band a few days ago. Holy fuck i was missing out and holy fuck they are underrated. This song and gates of ivory stay on repeat.

  4. M.... ....

    More rock music like this whole album pls

    M.... ....

    Amazing album right?! You might want to check out I Prevail's Trauma. Cheers.

  5. s.... g....

    You guys are amazing, better than some bands that have been around for a while in my opinion. Keep doing what y’all are doing! I’ve just subscribed and bought the album

  6. V.... U....

    What is he saying at 3:11?

    V.... U....

    Wounded and scarred, held in your arms. You feel the pain that you inflict.

  7. E.... E....

    If y'all ever wanted to know what it's like to be married to a narcissistic asshole ^^^^^^ there ya go.

  8. C.... H....

    Y’all check out my guitar cover to this I just posted! This is by far one of my favorite songs this year🤘

  9. R.... ....

    Perfection

  10. c.... ....

    What is he singing before the outro? Been trying to find them but they're not anywhere

    c.... ....

    callmefool187 yea me to man he sounds so cool but it’s not anywhere on the internet

    c.... ....

    "Wounded and scarred, held in your arms. You feel the pain that you inflict"

    c.... ....

    @AcrossOceansOfficial how did you find them!? Or did you listen super carefully lol

    c.... ....

    I had to ask Rory but he told me at a show

  11. A.... N....

    YO! I get an insane Architects vibe off this. God damn guys you are crazy and honestly never disappoint

  12. L.... V....

    It sounds like ice nine kills fused with three days grace

  13. S.... U....

    What is the tuning aaaa

    S.... U....

    7 string, tuned to F#

    S.... U....

    @Unicorn Poo that's pretty fucking low for a metalcore band that doesn't really djent (not like it's a bad thing)

  14. s.... ....

    This is really fucking good. Dayseeker deserves more than a measly 20K views.

  15. A.... N....

    THE FACT THAT DAYSEEKER ISN'T A COMMONLY KNOWN BAND NAME REALLY PISSES ME OFF

  16. M.... R....

    Tune fellas 🤘🏻🤘🏻

  17. D.... B....

    Just found you guys and honestly your music is amazing... Thank you

    D.... B....

    Check out their other albums man, you will be blown away!

  18. m.... m....

    damn this sounds clean!!!! godd jobs guys, keep up the good work

  19. C.... V....

    Wonderful album so far you guys have found your sound!

    C.... V....

    Your a pussy 😂

  20. H.... D....

    Unpopular opinion but I think while Rory's clean vocals are phenomenal his uncleans are mediocre at best. I feel like they should just ditch them completely and capitalize more on his singing voice.

    H.... D....

    Because you haven't heard the older albums. I believe the advances in studio technology increase the beauty of Rory's cleans and at the same time slightly stifle his amazing uncleans. I do understand what you say but as a metalcore lover I like both in a song. I try to move away from Time the Valuator. But even that wonderful band got a clean singer that does uncleans. Maybe Dream on Dreamer is a better example what I personally try to stay slightly right of. But that album they made was so good even without uncleans. It's kind of a matter of preference. Hope this helps.

    H.... D....

    Nah Gates Of Ivory has some good screams and it's Rory. I honestly love his screams, nothing special, but the way their music sounds are perfect for his voice.

    H.... D....

    I think that's what they were going for in this album. It's way softer than their previous efforts, but yeah I think his cleans are the main selling point, while at the same time his screams are also good to listen to.

    H.... D....

    @pickatchew I believe this approach will sell them more albums. As much as I'd like a harder album, these guys got families to feed. And i will support that.

  21. D.... ....

    And i thought this album was too Soft FFS i love you guys

    D.... ....

    It's definitely softer than the other albums. The breakdowns in this, Gates Of Ivory, Crash And Burn and Crooked Soul hit hard tho

    D.... ....

    Despite I’m happy someone made a soft album this year :)

  22. _.... J....

    One of my favorites on the album it has such a deep meaning behind it

  23. C.... H....

    This song alone is worth the album purchase.

    C.... H....

    Fucking right!!!
    this dudes voice! The guitars! The drums!
    SOLD!

    C.... H....

    Yesssss

  24. C.... V....

    The lyrics make every song even better. Because they make sense. I like reading them as I listen.

  25. R.... S....

    [Chorus]
    Bruised and bleeding
    The embers glow
    You couldn't cover her shade of gold
    The victim of your own attack
    A waste of breath, distorted past
    Your soul forever remains the color black

    [Verse 1]
    Wounded and scarred
    Open your arms
    So apathetic when you let it leave a mark
    Spineless, you're violent
    When you can't get away from yourself
    You treat your closest like wasted moments
    (Bruised and bleeding)
    So blame your father
    When you are the cancer
    She can't get out of bed, how could she leave
    Too scared to face reality
    If you could think without your fist
    And feel the pain that you inflict
    Surely you would have to cut your limbs
    But your soul is the color black

    [Verse 2]
    Spineless, you're violent
    When you can't get away from yourself
    You treat your closest like wasted moments
    (Bruised and bleeding)
    So blame your father
    When you are the cancer
    She can't get out of bed, how could she leave
    Too scared to face reality
    If you could think without your fist
    And feel the pain that you inflict
    Surely you would have to cut your limbs
    But your soul is the color black

    [Chorus]
    Bruised and bleeding
    The embers glow
    You couldn't cover her shade of gold
    The victim of your own attack
    A waste of breath, distorted past
    Your soul forever remains the color black

    [Outro]
    Bleeding but the embers glow
    Reflecting her shade of gold
    Watching her as she turns her back
    You remain the color black
    Bleeding but the embers glow
    Reflecting her shade of gold
    Watching her as she turns her back
    You remain the color black
