I See Stars - Yellow King Lyrics






I've had this dream before
It's just the ghost of the once was
A fool just like before
The same exact sad outcome

I've meant my enemy
And it seems we tried to work it out
You're just the ghost of the once was

But the stars aren't far enough
For you to grab them
Right out of the sky
There ain't no doubt about it

You ain't no child trying to drive a fast car, no
You ain't no friend of mine

Nobody seems to fear the truth more than me
It seems I have a darkness
But I can leave it all behind if you let me
Only if you let me
Only if you let me

So lay it on me
So lay it on me
It seems you're so scared of taking chances I'm not
So lay it on me
So lay it on me
I feel the rain

Reoccuring dreams
Pulling out my teeth
In a crowded white room

I try to run or yell
This is my hell
My legs won't move

I've had this dream before
It's just the ghost of the once was
A fool just like before
The same exact sad outcome

I've had this dream before
You're just the ghost of the once was

But the stars aren't far enough
For you to grab them
Right out of the sky
There ain't no doubt about it

You ain't no child trying to drive a fast car, no
You ain't no friend of mine

Nobody seems to fear the truth more than me
It seems I have a darkness
But I can leave it all behind if you let me
Only if you let me
Only if you let me

All this time
I've been waiting to let you go
All this time
I've been waiting to let you go
All this time
I've been waiting to let you go
All this time
I've been waiting to let you go

So lay it on me
So lay it on me
It seems you're so scared of taking chances I'm not
So lay it on me
So lay it on me
I feel the rain

    n.... ....

    Alex Rede hi brother

  67. J.... G....

    I love this album like wtf

  68. M.... G....

    honestly I saw them at warped 2016, he sings so damn good, I could live without a screaming heavy ISS.

    M.... G....

    and btw, mobbin out is damn good live.

  69. R.... M....

    this sounds more like I see stars. idk I like the screaming and hard guitar they are so awesome putting the two types of music together but alot of tracks on this album are very different. still have alot love tho.

  70. D.... V....

    I feel like this song is either about creative differences between Devin and Zach and an inability to work it out OR a desire in Devin to continue to pursue this new style of ISS. No more "darkness," getting rid of the "what once was," and the passion to take chances; like he's asking for our opinions, if it's okay with us that he goes in this new direction, to "lay it on" him, if you will. Maybe I'm way off, who knows. But if this IS the case, then YES Devin, I think most of your fan base wants you to continue down this road. And this is coming from someone who first listened to them with New Demons, a dedicated follower of metalcore, and someone who thought the "electronicore" could only be successful if ISS wrote it. But this album...straying from this style is a blatant waste of some of the best musical talent and writing I've ever heard from a 21st century band. No exaggeration.

    D.... V....

    Daniel Varney very nice way of saying they are a good band.

  71. A.... ....

    Its like they made videos for the bad songs and left the unique and amazing songs alone from this album.

  72. A.... T....

    Awesome new band check them out!

  73. P.... C....

    This song does something to me, i can't even explain the feeling

  74. G.... V....

    This album definetly is a beatiful master peace.

  75. T.... ....

    Best closer ever

  76. m.... ....

    new demons PT. 2 plz

  77. T.... A....

    I see star cool...

  78. M.... C....

    I feel like this song and album cover are a reference to True Detective season 1

  79. �.... ....

    I like this song!

  80. V.... ....

    No mames estos i see stars están super volados con su nuevo álbum tan delicioso!!! 😎

  81. k.... ....

    0.44 - 1.04 sooooo heaven :)

  82. T.... ....

    Yellow King. King Of Amarillo.. What is this.

  83. W.... B....

    I don't know why people hate them now. Treehouse is an amazing album.... I'm fan of their old stuff too but It's amazing how ISS found new direction & still kept a flow of their old style too. Worth the long long wait since New Demons

    W.... B....

    Waleed Bin Alim the new album is fucking amazing they are one of top bands thanks to tree house.

    W.... B....

    you forgot about phases it was the last album

    W.... B....

    @Tristan Barnes It only had 4 new songs and the rest were reimagined versions, so I never considered it an album

  84. G.... S....

    I See Stars has went to shit. :( makes me sad..

  85. m.... ....

    it sounds a lot like sleeping with sirens, but better. <3

  86. J.... ....

    This album uses popular styles of music in such a tight, enjoyable and catchy fashion its impossible to resist even for some who to listens predominantly "underground" metal

  87. L.... ....

    been watching comments on every song on this album so far :) this is my favorite though

  88. R.... F....

    this new album doesn't have the same feel as there other albums, i mean there still brilliant, just not the same.

  89. M.... ....

    <3333333333333

  90. N.... ....

    I get an Issues vibe from the start for some reason.

  91. L.... i....

    Iv had this dream before

  92. M.... o....

    I love the lyrics of this song <3

  93. Z.... N....

    Yellow King is a True Detective reference :)

  94. S.... F....

    favorite song by far

  95. A.... R....

    I liked 4/12 songs they became more like Issues djent which makes me sad

  96. J.... P....

    God I love ISEESTARS Sooo much. From the time their music was introduced to me, to their first concert I saw live when I touched Devin's hand, to this brand new album. I love you guys so much! Thanks for making beautiful amazing music. <3
