Starset - Unbecoming Lyrics






I lost myself into the night
And I flew higher
Than I had ever
But I still felt small
I clipped my wings and fell from flight
To open water
And floated farther
Away from myself

And I swam in the wakes of imposters
Just to feel what it's like to pretend
There's no dreams in the waves, only monsters
And the monsters are my only friends

They're all that I was
And never could be

Eyes in the dead still water
Tried but it pushed back harder
Cauterized and atrophied
This is my unbecoming
Knives in the backs of martyrs
Lives in the burning fodder
Cauterized and atrophied
This is my unbecoming

You found me drifted out to sea
It's automatic
It's telepathic
You always knew me
And you laugh as I search for a harbor
As you point where the halo had been
But the light in your eyes has been squandered
There's no angel in you in the end

And all that I was
I've left behind me

Eyes in the dead still water
Tried but it pushed back harder
Cauterized and atrophied
This is my unbecoming
Knives in the backs of martyrs
Lives in the burning fodder
Cauterized and atrophied
This is my unbecoming

Now I wait
This metamorphosis
All that is left is the change
Selfish fate
I think you made me this
Under the water I wait

Eyes in the dead still water
Tried but it pushed back harder
Cauterized and atrophied
This is my unbecoming
Knives in the backs of martyrs
Lives in the burning fodder
Cauterized and atrophied
This is my unbecoming

    in the past few hundred years, Originium has become the lifeblood of the world
    it first gave birth to Greed, Power, Pain, Hatred
    And soon it breeds countless monsters -Us
    We were deprived of our identities, and were named
    The Infected


    -Dr. Kal'tsit

  38. �.... ....

    #亞次園

  39. O.... ....

    Arknights gang rise up.

    O.... ....

    @TheGamerPokemon the first I heard was Monster (from Arknights too), not bad, decent song, try to search Starset's other songs too...
    now they become my favorite band

    O.... ....

    @lee sasuki Fantastic! I've stuck with them since I heard Carnivore, and it's been great. If you haven't already, I'd definitely recommend you checking out their 3 new singles, and the album that releases on the 13th of September. The singles are stunning!

    O.... ....

    @TheGamerPokemon didn't reall like the new songs sadly, i mean, I have been loving all of their song until now(and this never happen to me on other band/singer), but I didn't really like their new style...
    but I'm still a big fan nonetheless~

    O.... ....

    @lee sasuki That's fine I guess. Which ones of the new ones have you heard?

    O.... ....

    @TheGamerPokemon all of them as long as on youtube

  40. M.... H....

    I am here because a mobile game called Arknights

    M.... H....

    Is that a game that uses this soundtrack?

  41. R.... G....

    Top 5 song, don’t get me wrong all of there sounds are good

  42. D.... R....

    The first starset song that i heard.
    I found it in the public about KOTOR

  43. H.... D....

    Suis-je la seule francaise ici??

  44. N.... G....

    Why was this unlisted?

  45. T.... O....

    This sounds like something that would fit so well into an epic final boss fight in an action hack-and-slash game.

  46. J.... H....

    haces cosas muy raras, peter

  47. �.... ....

    明日方舟簽到樓

  48. A.... N....

  65. J.... W....

    i love all of their songs

  66. b.... ....

    Still love how they referenced monster, telepathic and halo in this one song

  67. M.... B....

    All of Starsets music is basically a soundtrack to a thriller-action movie, and I LOVE it. I love them.

    I can relate to every one of their songs, even in just a small way.

  68. A.... W....

    Doctor: you have four minutes to live.
    Starset: hold my beer.
    Me: listening to this song.

  69. L.... A....

    This is pure art, my fave song from this album.

  70. S.... C....

    2:43 2:46

  71. B.... D....

    This song represents me on a spiritual level

  72. p.... ....

    Probably the best song from the album.

  73. D.... T....

  74. m.... n....

    best rock band i have ever heard

  77. M.... A....

    Starset

  78. E.... H....

    🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

  79. E.... P....

    Hey Starset! I made a Legend of Zelda Majora's Mask video for the game's 18th anniversary with your song Unbecoming, and I wanted to share it with you! I worked really hard on it so I hope you like it! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lXnNS-w2t9c

  80. M.... ....

    I love this

  81. D.... C....

    Starset is the new Linkin Park

  82. s.... ....

    Just when you thought you heard a really good song then the next track is even better!! Amazing fucking band ever STARSET#1

  83. P.... P....

    I love all ur songs 🎧

  84. J.... T....

    I love Starset so much! They make awesome songs, the songs have a meaning, and they not only have a meaning but they make you feel it so well! why isnt Starset famous yet? We love you, Starset! all your songs are absolutely amazing

  85. X.... X....

    Can't wait for the remix of this song, it's my personal favorite of this album.

  86. A.... J....

    Seems like a Supernatural song. Maybe Cas?

  87. s.... ....

    The only way this song could possibly be improved is by adding a 10-15 second instrumental outro with a punctuating bass line and piano playing in minor notes from the same minor key the song was written in. It's a great song, but the ending is a bit too abrupt to suit the rest of the composition.

  88. S.... M....

    Por qué es la canción con menos vistas s
    i está increíble.

  89. W.... S....

    I love this song, Recommend others to listen to our unbecoming.

    W.... S....

    Howl with us.

  90. A.... N....

    When first listening to this song I didn't pay too much attention to it. But after being lucky enough to see them live and and see this song on stage and in the proper volume it quickly became one of my favourite songs of theirs. The feeling was so amazing that I will never forget it.
    If they ever have a concert close to where you live I highly recommend going! It will be totally worth it
    Best band ever!

  91. B.... R....

    A passion called Starset

  92. M.... G....

    I cannot WAIT for the 2.0 for this.

  93. T.... C....

    My friends make fun of me for listening to music like this. :/

  94. I.... F....

    I love this song!

  95. I.... F....

    This band and it’s message is important. Technology will become our undoing.

  96. P.... L....

    Best song on the album.

  97. s.... ....

    so underrated :(
