Dillinger Escape Plan, The - Setting Fire To Sleeping Giants Lyrics
First off
Let me say you look so tired...
Rest your head and shut your eyes
Empty... ambition
Blankets the sky
Yeah right
Yeah right
Yeah right
So drop the gown
The game's over
Just push your face into the fight
And it breaks my heart
Like dancing up all night
And it feels so wrong
Like nothing we've ever... felt before-ore-ore-ore
Yeah right
Yeah right
Yeah right
The stranger's candy takes you where you ought to be
In broken alleys in the back of every street
Tonight!
Baby you can have it
Baby... you can... have it
Oh, baby gnaw me
Down to the bone
Soon you'll find I'm never gonna take you back home
Well, there's so much you never told me
And there's not much I want to know
'Cause your pretty face will do just fine
You'll be the star...
Let's go for a long ride
I'll show you places you won't ever want to leave
The stranger's candy takes you where you ought to be
In broken alleys in the back of every street
Stranger's candy...
Broken alleys...
Yeah...
Tonight!
We could... bring it all down
We could... bring it... all down
They think this body's a dead... note
Dancing... to the beat
But they'll never see this corpse
Coming... 'til it... kills them

Dillinger Escape Plan, The Setting Fire To Sleeping Giants Comments
THIS BAND IS STRAIGHT TRASH NOW. THIS SINGER TRIES TO B MIKE PATTON MIXED WITH DISTURBED OR SOMETHING NOW??😂😂😂.....hardcore is dead I'm glad I was there for the beginning and now the sad sad ending R.I.P. D.E.P
Дядя Пэттон повлиял на буззанов!)
Jazz insanity metal
Can anyone tell me if M Shadows from AX7 was featured on this song?
Quick crutch field tongs at the end! 3:34
Listening 2 this now its obvious why mike patton was the singer 4 this band 4 some time
Is that fucking José Mangin??
this is so 2004
greg looks like a nerd from the suburbs who has to be home by 6 and then one day got buffed and started screaming in some band and stuff
Mike Patton rip-off
that chorus part though, The vocals are more raspy with Low and High notes. Sounds like LINKIN PARK to me, this Nu metal song is awesome if you agree!
The thumbnail for this and Milk Lizard almost look the same lmao
is jose mangin in this?
Is that Jose mangin from liquid metal SiriusXM?
MrLDub4589 I was wondering the same thing
Is that Jose mangin?
Dude I just asked the same thing!! I think so, sure looks like it to me man
I legit thought the singing on here was from Brandon Urie. They had very similar voices.
Their own record label didn't know the lyrics?
And it's "gnaw". That's the incomprehensible part.
Wherever you are now Greg, plz bang me
Oh, this song was about rape. Oh...
absolute pile of shit. calculating infinity should be used as inspiration to murder anyone who likes this track
I bet you think Battles In The North is for posers too, huh?
Is that Jose mangin!
Relapse records more like anal prolapse
Chris Pennie brought the foundations. Gil Sharone brought the groove. Billy Rymer brought the j a z z.
Greg looks like George st. Pierre with hair
2018.... Casi 2019..... From the best album of DEP
"there's no way to replace the absence that you called. Finally, there's a light over the dark one's illuminated."
Think about that from a Christian perspective. What a powerful lyric. Whether or not he meant it this way.
God I fucking love The Dill Pickle Escape Van
Greg looks like Sam Hyde in this video.
Was that Jose Mangin?
Lol its metal Tom hardy lol
The video is so boring compared to the music. I guess they are hard to match with a decent film maker, since DEP go beyond!
Watch the vid for "When I Lost My Bet"
You know? I usually don't like metalcore. But this band kicks ass!
Good sounding music.
1:20 idk but this reminds me of that band panic at the disco if im right
Wow...does this song have a Faith No More vibe to it!
I love these guys. It's not often you can elbow some stranger in the face and he hugs you afterward. Weird energy. I love it.
who gave greg the 5th grade yearbook hair cut ?
stop screaming ! god dam it! live its even worst!!
Mike patton style
popoleka :D
i forgot how much the singer resembles pie f#cker when he was younger.
OMG it's Jake Peralta from Brooklyn Nine Nine season 1
I had never heard of these guys, and I saw them at a metal festival in Europe last month. I couldn't last more than 15 min. This poppy shit is painful to watch, especially when you have the likes of bands like Emperor. It definitely killed my mood. It doesn't belong at a prestigious metal fest.
Oscar Duarte listen to 43 percent burnt
If its so prestigious then why did that Disney ass Emperor get to play? Who the fuck wants to listen to symphonic black metal? Just go watch Beauty And The Beast if you want a fucking orchestra. Not kvlt enough.
This poppy stuff! Lol! If I played this for my dad he would be terrified. It's not like this is "acceptable mainstream" music.
I hope their plane crashes and the whole band burns to death...poor excuse for music...
The amount of childish hostility in this comment is baffling.
Not true. Now, if he'd've added "...and then jackals should piss on their charred remains", THAT would certify as baffling childish hostility.
Well, guess what. They've disbanded. Are you happy now?
How can you call this trash
..... I don't know my wife my friend was hyping this band it sounds like a poor man's Avenged Sevenfold desperate to squeeze in as much Jazz as they can.....
I'm going to have to ask my friend if he needs to come out of the closet because I can only see one redeeming thing and I can see it with my eyes I'm not hearing it with my ears...
These guys aren't as gay as A7X, your ears are just so full of gay shit, you wouldn't know good shit if it cucked you.
i love the fact it says [Incomprehensible] me when its clearly gnaw me
porca troia che massacro
And it is also "you will be the star of my very last show" not every. just a heads up for you.
Oh baby (incomprehensible word is gnaw)
So underrated
Fall of Troy does the jazz break better but Fucking great song.
metal come in very different forms, Black Metal, Super Black Metal, Progressive Vegetarian Scandinavian Grindcore, and... Lounge uwu 1:47
jajaajajaa Cierto pelo!!
If nothing else, you can’t say they were ballsy in experimentation.
dang dude puciato always looks jacked....like the hulk lol
Going to see them for the first and last time.... TOOONNNIIIIIGGGGHHHTTTTTT!
Thinchap lol
I got such a good LOL out of this as I read it in my head with the scream
I never understood the Greg/Mike Patton comparison, I don't here it generally.
It's only because Mike Patton released an ep with this band. This song doesn't sound like Faith No More like some people think it does.
for the lyrics in the description he says gnaw me down to the bone
This song is like Panic! at the Disco/Fallout Boy with balls. xD
I thought the same
TDEP transcends all classifications with their overall product/ sound being an ever changing thjng
_soqotra well he said " with balls" for a reason.
I did only say _this_ song. Obviously DEP is a much more chaotic band with crazy jazz-infused mathcore stuff that completely knocks this song out of the park. Been a fan for a couple years now.
This is hardcore punk and patd! And Fob are gaycore.
The strangers cannnddyyyyyyyy takes you where you oughta be!
1:10 that's the face I make when I jizz
sucks ass
cade os Br ? será q tem
There's only about 3 Dillinger songs that I hate and this is definitely one of them.
Kill Trump This, one of us is the killer and black bubblegum?
This song is so good though!
pressed replay !
The world never deserved a band this amazing
A-fuckin'-men
Greg looks like a ripped version of that guy from Lonely Island in this video
If you did an album of all the songs they played straight forward you would still have a better album than most metal bands out there!
Don't you tease
I think the [incomprehensible] lyric is gnaw, "oh baby, gnaw me to the bone". Come on Relapse youre slackin
my favorite dep song
DEP are one of my all time favorite bands but I'd say this was my favorite album.
Me too. It's just SO solid the entire way through
DAT MUSHROOM CUT THO
I always thought Greg was channeling Mike Patton on this song :/
honestly, that dude is ALWAYS channeling patton. not that its a bad thing.
I thought 2:09 was Mike Patton guesting on the song the first time I listened, sounds so like him
linguo76 That's because this was the first album that came after the godly Mike Patton ep, give it a listen or 2000000, it's great.
@Owen Mordid He was channeling frank zappa
I love the Mike Patton influence of this song
Greg is the man!
puciato's head wasn't really designed to have hair on it
a new type of really great hair metal?
Can anybody tell what happens to that woman?
jemimallah in the one video he looks better with the hair and nose ring, here he looks like dexter the serial killer
like any italian
It's funny. In the chorus, it sounds like a Panic At The Disco/Fall Out Boy's song.
Nah, Panic and FoB aren't shit. Their newer albums are just not nearly as good as their first ones.
@Pseudo Wounds nah they have never been musically technical and never really pushed any boundaries. They are just mainstream bs but if that what u like, dont stop me from having u listen to it
@Kezia Naomi Technicality and boundaries don't mean anything when it comes to quality, and being mainstream doesn't necessarily mean it is bad. Metallica are pretty mainstream, and they were insanely good during their first 4 albums. Besides, you wont find anything that sounds quite like them that hasn't come after they showed up. I'm pretty sure me telling you to check their first 2 albums would be useless, since you're so stuck in this notion that something has to be technical or innovative to be good, but the wittiness in their lyrics and the melodies they've crafted *in those 2 albums* can speak for themselves. I'm not saying they are Dillinger-Escape-Plan-Good, but they shouldn't be labeled as "mainstream BS". They were much better than that.
Pseudo Wounds you kind of shot yourself in the foot by using an example that demonstrates the exact opposite of what you were trying to prove lol. Metallica WERE amazing in their first four albums precisely because they WEREN'T mainstream then and those albums pretty much set the blueprint for thrash metal (aka were innovative). After that they got more simple and mainstream and began to suck. You clearly don't know a lot about music/metal history. I don't understand how so many people who listen to bands like PATD like Dillinger, it's just inconceivable to me. I mean this song, sure, but they have about 5 like this in their entire catalogue, the other 95% is incredibly abrasive, technical math metal. Are you lost?
Kezia Naomi I know your comment is old but technicality does not equal quality, The Ramones were incredibly simplistic, untalented musicians that still made great music and kickstarted one of the most influential genres in the history of music.
Guitar hero? :D
When good songs do.shit videos.
This video is fuckin sweet!
oh god. jose, is that you?
it does look like Jose Mangin
It's him dude, I read it somewhere. haha
are you getting in the mood for the new record?
Has anyone pointed out that the part in the lyrics that says 'incomprehensible' is naw...
+Tim Racadio Gnaw*
Best song about rape. I love it 😍😍
+BLACK HAT I did after this comment and I can see your point thank you sir
Carlos Lira think date rape by sublime might be better but maybe the second best song about rape?
Carlos Lira i play this song on my 1st dates no wonder they dont turn out so great
adam sandberg singing xD
The Kadju who the fuck is sandberg?
these guys tryin to copy simple plan
+Yi Hyung Lee manure smells bad indeed :)
+tae smellsbad Are you pure retarded?
Are you an ISIS member?
+tae smellsbad Are you hilarious?
Who cares?
Ooh baby, *GNAW* me down to the bone
Like chewing
DJ Soundwave that's the exact one dude.why couldn't they figure it out and its not every last show it's my very last show. Duh sum people haha
That fucking jazz break though
+David Wilson i call it the "hawaiian shirts on the beach" break, coined by some dude/girl who tabbed it and titled that section thus
With that hair he looks like Adam Sambert
+Nino Falletta That's what he said. Adam Sambert.
+Kurt Thompson Id like to see them arm wrestle though!
+Kurt Thompson Sorta looks like Bryan Danielson here.
+Kurt Thompson I read it as Adam lambert and thought no no NO that is wrong!!! :P
All I see is Urijah Faber, the former UFC fighter
Yo, is that Jose Mangin?
+Burnt Toast Yeah! I was like whaaaaaa??
At the one part, he says "Ooh baby you gnaw me right down to the bones"
My mistake, it's "you gnaw me down to the bone" not right down lol
I love those mathy breakdowns after the chorus. I normally don't like their more straightforward rock songs but this one is pretty good. Although they're pretty hit and miss overall; they're no converge
+thomasthecricketlege I really like Converge and have nothing but respect for them and I know they have been around about as long as Dillinger, but they are no Dillinger. That is my subjective opinion of course. Cheers!
Converge ? Really? Tired of their music alteast dep tried different elements while converge will always be stuck on metalcore shit, no one listens to metalcore these days
I love Converge but I would take Dillinger over them in a heartbeat.
I wish they made more songs like this
Agreed, This song really hook me up to them from the first time i heard.
Rittiron Sontimaung agreed
If you have to do this song on guitar hero you'll think it is made by satan ghehe
We have Clone Hero now
genre???
@YASHER Encore the band is usually a genre known as "mathcore", however this song would be more like alternative rock and post-hardcore, with a LITTLE bit of their mathcore/math rock sound in there.
That's what I love about this band. They experiment, but can still bust out some crazy shit when needed. I get bored real quick of straight core bands. They put me to sleep.
Baripapa baripiri
.?? I Primi !
....this song is about a pedophile murdering children, right?...
@ganondorfchampin Not even gonna read it... here's your candy, dont talk to strangers.
@sukitta2 Yeah, because you're a fool whose only refuge is your own ignorance. The fact you said such an asinine thing that people don't talk to kids they kidnap makes it clear you don't even understand the whole "stranger" and "candy" association with pedophiles, further emphasized by you saying "here's your candy, dont talk to strangers". Guess what, genius, children wouldn't be taught not to talk to strangers if strangers didn't talk to children when they try to kidnap them.
@ganondorfchampin "you clearly know nothing about child abduction" you're right I leave this one to you, person who is weirdly obsessed with child abduction
@Owen Horecny lol
@Owen Horecny Hey, it's not MY obsession, it's America's. It wasn't my choice to watch all those videos and read all those PSAs. The rest I know is mainly for various articles I've read on different topics that clarified some of the misconceptions the public has.
Definitely one of my favorite songs by The Dillinger Escape Plan.
