LYRICS
I was born to break, shallow paradise
Consumed, I ignore meteoric rise
If the blade is dull, there is consequence
You displace the host, there is no defense
Tell me the waves won’t rise
And monsters will fade with time
To temper the blaze with the twist of a knife
A Sun Killer lullaby
They were born of dust, shallow parasite
Breakdown, destruction
Ocean floors collide
If the blade is dull, there is consequence
If I stay I know, I’ll be violent
Tell me the waves won’t rise
And monsters will fade with time
To temper the blaze with the twist of a knife
A Sun Killer lullaby
Sun Killer sing me to sleep

eternal blue is one of the best debut albums I’ve heard in years
-
My fucking god, what a way to start an album. Fucking beautiful!
-
"Sun. Kill. Er. Sing. Me. To Sleep." THEN finally followed up by that explosive "SUN KILLER SING ME TO SLEEP!!!" THIS is why metal is my favorite/go to music genre!
-
Listening to Courtney is like listening to a siren sing. It sounds so hauntingly beautiful.
-
This might be the best intro song I've ever heard. I literally cannot get past it to continue the album. Spiritbox you are legends
-
#3 on Billboard 200 in America. That's gotta mean something, right!? Metal/hard rock needs a resurgence. Big time. The new Spiritbox is amazing by the way.
-
How music like this isn't more popular, absolutely baffles me.
-
Courtney has one of most beautiful voices in music today.
-
Courtney's vocals are so hauntingly beautiful!
-
I was drifting off to sleep with Amazon music in my headphones. I guess it went from whatever I had on previously to this. Scream at the end WOKE MY ASS THE HELL UP!!! One of the best albums of the year
-
Getting some lacuna coil and evanescence vibes on this song. Well, It's Spiritbox, always 🔥🔥
-
Best song on this album. I love the buildup and then that massive ending breakdown. Fucking stellar.
-
Came here from Apricot's cover of this song, gotta say it's good
-
this whole album is incredible, but SUN KILLER is probably the most hauntingly Beautiful metal song i have ever heard. its so many eargasms rolled into such a tight package. the lyrics are so damn dark and haunting and that chorus sends a chill down my soul. This is a song that makes you feel alive, my favorite song from Spiritbox so far after Circle With Me and Constance.
-
1:26 Courtney's siren vocals piercing through the evil instrumental in the background gives me chills everytime
-
I know this isn't technically one of their heaviest songs on the album... but when the drums and bass come in in that first verse... it just sounds so fuckin menacing. This album is one of the best modern metal albums I've heard in a long long time.
-
Day 2: Twenty playthroughs later, and this still hits as hard as the first time. Day 7: Fifty playthroughs...still hits just as hard. I'm actually more emotional this time around. It'll be an album my friends and I will treasure and talk about forever.
-
This is killer and the whole album comes out on my birthday that's even more awesome
-
That beautiful vocal progression... Building up to the eerie whispers: "Sun Killer, sing me to sleep" "Sun Killer, sing me to sleep" SUN KILLER SING ME TO SLEEEEEEP!!!!
-
This song punched me in the throat and I loved it.
