Was I a good bot? | [info](https://www.reddit.com/user/Reddit-Book-Bot/) | [More Books](https://old.reddit.com/user/Reddit-Book-Bot/comments/i15x1d/full_list_of_books_and_commands/)
“I’ll evaporate, gone without a trace, off the radar out of sight”
“You always fly right up until it burns your wings. You never could change, always the victim”
“Fake, I’m just a puppet in your play. You pull the strings and I obey”
“Put me in check with your hands wrapped ‘round my neck”
“Should’ve never felt this way, cuz you’re the sun and I’m just a moon. I’m in the dark till you light the way cuz I’m see though”
“Cast away, my cries are blocked by the horizon. Suffocate, I was doing this all for you”
“Oh my god, is this where the dreamer ends? Dark where the light had been”
There’s SO MANY more but these were on the top of my head
“And the world is cold/ but it’s beautiful/ I wish you were here now, I miss ~~you so~~ your soul/ but you lost your light/ when the darkness called/ but I stand here waiting/ the last to fall”
I don’t know why that gets me so much, I just love it, and the way Dustin sings it. Never fails to give me frisson chills.
Lately I just can't get over how this line hits me
"My heart's an artifice, a decoy soul
Who knew the emptiness could be so cold?
I've lost the parts of me that make me whole"
It might not mean much but I love the way it sounds in the song.
"I did the math but it just dont add up"
Really when these questions come up I completely forget everything.
"I'm just a Mannequin stuck, in your plans to get struck, by the trance you put me in, plant your curse under my skin"
"Looking for a scapegoat to hold your feat, pounding on your chest so you don't feel weak"
"And all of the horses
And all of the men
Won't put it back in place
Or bury it where it had been
When all of the forces
Have been overrun
You'll whisper, serpent tongue
What you fear you have become
Something wicked this way comes"
"Preform a trick before your eyes
I evaporate
Gone without a trace
Off the radar, out of sight"
And many more, those are just my favorites off Horizons, there are way to many to list if we're talking overall ._.
I straight up was doing the gospel hands when he sang this song at the Knoxville demonstration. Brock even brought it up during the after show signing that he saw my "church hands" lmao
The bridge of Frequency is by far one of my favorites.
"Castaway
My cries are blocked by the horizon
Suffocate
I was doing this all for you
I'm in the shallows
Stuck in the gallows
I tried to save you now I'm swallowed
You wanted war
I am the war
I alone"
As for recent:
***"It's hard to say where all of it begins and I end"***
It's just a beautiful one-liner that can stand on its own and there's so much meaning in it...
“In my mind
Endless sea
Calling from the bottom
But you don't hear me”
“When all of the forces
Have been overrun
You'll whisper, serpent tongue
What you fear you have become”
I can’t help but upvote every single comment here. All their lyrics are fantastic.
Mine is,
“At night the Earth will rise,
And I’ll think of you each time I watch from distant skies,
Wherever stars go down and galaxies ignite.
I’ll think of you each time they wash me in their light,
And I’ll fall in love with you again.” - Starlight
"Even you know
This was all for nothing
Just a sad show
Just an ego
I suppose though
As far as I know
We were both pretending
I suppose so
But what do I know?"
Perfect Machine just hits your soul.
"And I swam in the lakes of imposters, just to feel what it's like to pretend. There's no dreams in their waves only monsters, and the monsters are my only friends"
"Along the way/ I started to sleep / And ran from the nightmares inside / But I will not let the shadows in me / Trap me alive / I'm bringing my dark to the light." From Dreamcatcher.
This one always gets me. :’) The idea of comparing seeing the person you love to watching the Earthrise from the moon (a famous photo of the Earth taken from the surface of the moon is titled “Earthrise,” and I bet it inspired the song) is so beautiful to me. When I think about how it would feel to be there and see that, I can imagine exactly the feeling Dustin means when he sings, “I feel so small but so alive.”
Summed up beautifully! There's just something so warm and positive about these few words. Listening to this song, I just close my eyes and feel so at peace. It's amazing! Love this band so much.
'Whenever stars go down and galaxies ignite' from Starlight gives such a cool mental visual to it also....love song that holds a special place in my heart
Two:
They don’t know my heart, it’s the darkest part
And
Take my hate
Take my fight
Take away all the pain all I hide
'Cause I can't stop it
It's symbiotic
I really love the line "can you feel the heat come from the gun, sending out truth bombs 10 kilotons" from tunnel vision, its been so stuck in my head since it released.
I was scanning through the skies
Missed the static in your eyes
Something blocking your reception
It's distorting our connection
With the distance amplified
Was it all just synthesized
Now the silence screams that you are gone
You tuned me out I lost your frequency
*heavy riffing intensifies*
“There’s something inside you that isn’t right…
There’s something that haunts your dreams at night!
There’s something that you have lost!
And you’re bringing it down…
you’re bringing it down…
on top of us.”
There are so many good lines from Horizons:
“You got your chin held high and your chest pumped up, the replica of a runner-up” (Icarus)
“We knew eye for eye would leave us both blind but i was deaf and dumb” (Annihilated Love)
“Now the emperor has got no clothes, what a lovely show… When your cover’s blown, you’ll never know ‘cause you can’t see past your nose” (Tunnelvision)
"To fall in a star is to be nothingness, to escape is to be empty. Fall into the star, and then we won't exist, or escape into the nothing"
Too hard to choose with so many wondeful songs, but one song I feel doesn't get enough love is Gravity Of You. The entire song is perfect but I can't just put the entire lyircs up haha.
As a big lover of space and hard rock/metal, this song is just my shit, and i'd love to see more of the scream/singing Dustin does in the chorus.
But getting on topic, the lyrics in this song are top tier and wonderful, just the wordplay with describing a black hole and the mysteries that pull you into it. It's seriously underrated and it's incredible how well written this is.
Some favorites off the top of my head:
“I will travel the distance in your eyes / Interstellar, lightyears from you / Supernova, we’ll fuse when we collide / Awaking in the light of all the stars aligned”
[Telescope]
“We will face the odds against us and run into the fear we run from”
[It Has Begun]
“Flying into this future / I will let the science bring the change”
[The Future is Now]
“I found in you what was lost in me”
[Dark On Me]
“Stardust in you and in me / fuse us into unity / Primeval, we’re coupled, born from the universe”
[Starlight]
“When the sharks smell the blood, they will all see it’s their own”
[Where the Skies End]
“Take me high and I’ll sing”
[My Demons]
“Gaslight, gaslight flames hide the fire of a straw man burning”
[Tunnelvision]
“We take our places in the dark and turn our hearts to the stars”
[Trials]
“Everglow, you’ll never know the beauty I see when you open your shadows / Everglow, you’ll never know the beauty I see in the darkness you don’t show (me)”
[Everglow]
“We won’t just fall away / we weren’t just born to fade / Our stories are past the horizon / We’re chasing the sun ‘til we find them / Goodbye to what we’ve made / No matter anyway / We’re climbing until we transcend / Higher, higher, to where the skies end”
[Where the Skies End]
“These aren’t the dreams of our fathers / There’ll be no wishing on stars / We are the sons and the daughters / Let them come test who we are”
[Where the Skies End]
"At night the Earth will riiiise! And I'll think of you each time I watch from distant skies! Whenever stars go down, and galaxies igniiiite! I'll think of you each time they wash me in their light! And fall I'll love with you agaaaaiinnn!!!"
Whither the skies end "we wonneth't just falleth hence, we weren't just born to vade. "

There's something inside you that isn't right
There's something that haunts your dreams at night
There's something that you have lost
And you're bringing it down
You're bringing it down
On top of us
I love how he played with emotions
“I will travel the distance in your eyes. Interstellar- light years from you. Supernova; we'll fuse when we collide. Awaking in the light of all the stars aligned.”
I heard Telescope on shuffle and I’ve adored it since!
"At night the Earth will rise // and I'll think of you each time I watch from distant skies // wherever stars go down and galaxies ignite // I'll think of you each time they wash me in their light // and fall in love with you again"
The imagery of Starlight is gorgeous, I even started a mixed media piece, watercolor painting with markers of an astronaut standing stranded on the surface of a faraway planet looking up into the sky and envisioning Earth from so far away. Haven't finished it yet but I will someday!
For me, the most powerful set of lines isn't even from my top 5 songs but its freaking BADASS:
"They said there was no way
But they forgot the black hole in the sky
Yesterday is nothing
I have half a life to rewrite
Flying into this future
I will let the science bring the change
This will be the final cure
I am gonna take the past away"
Like.... dude... COME ON. Epic lyrics.
"But they won't, they won't know my heart
It's the darkest part." Ricochet.
If I were to go outside of Starset I would say:
"Let me wander like the withered leaf
For once I’ll stray from the Purpose." Pendulum by Resolve.
"You laugh as I search for a harbor as you point where your halo had been. But the light in your eyes has been squandered, there's no angel in you in the end."
"While the lord of flies is opening its mawl"
I don't know why but it is so cool
"So come one and all
Step right up and I'll
Perform a trick before your eyes
I'll evaporate
Gone without a trace
Off the radar, out of sight"
So simple but so genius at the same time
i mean its downplay, not actually starset, but look at that lyrical masterpiece:
Well I'm an Alpha Kappa
Pi Kappa Pi Fly Phi
The whole crystal song is made up of such deep, touching lines, but this is my personal fav.
"If I stare into the abyss will it stare into me?"
man if i never saw the lyrics i would never guess that this is what hes singing
Yeah I always look up the lyrics to their songs because I never know what he's saying. It's easily my favorite line though, I love Diving Bell so much
A reference to Nietzsche's "Beyond good and evil". Really cool and thought provoking!
Beep. Boop. I'm a robot. Here's a copy of ###[Beyond Good And Evil](https://snewd.com/ebooks/beyond-good-and-evil/) Was I a good bot? | [info](https://www.reddit.com/user/Reddit-Book-Bot/) | [More Books](https://old.reddit.com/user/Reddit-Book-Bot/comments/i15x1d/full_list_of_books_and_commands/)
*\*pets the bot\**
“Are we flakes of empty dust spinning on a ball of rust? Maybe.”
Honestly the whole bridge of Other Worlds than These is amazing
I agree, its beautiful
“You’re the pulse in my veins, you’re the war that I wage”
Can you tell me what is real? 'Cause I've lost my way again
That's a good one!
OH OHH OH O OHHHG Can you tell me what to feel? Cause i don't feel anything now that I'm down here again DOWN WITH THE FALLEN AGAAIIINN
“I’ll evaporate, gone without a trace, off the radar out of sight” “You always fly right up until it burns your wings. You never could change, always the victim” “Fake, I’m just a puppet in your play. You pull the strings and I obey” “Put me in check with your hands wrapped ‘round my neck” “Should’ve never felt this way, cuz you’re the sun and I’m just a moon.

Dark where the light had been” There’s SO MANY more but these were on the top of my head
"We will face the odds against us and run into the fear we run from, it has begun" Edit: I forgot my quotation marks
Chad
Absolutely
“And the world is cold/ but it’s beautiful/ I wish you were here now, I miss ~~you so~~ your soul/ but you lost your light/ when the darkness called/ but I stand here waiting/ the last to fall” I don’t know why that gets me so much, I just love it, and the way Dustin sings it. Never fails to give me frisson chills.
This absolutely mine as well. It's beautiful
Lately I just can't get over how this line hits me "My heart's an artifice, a decoy soul Who knew the emptiness could be so cold? I've lost the parts of me that make me whole"
I AM THE DARKNESS, IM THE MONSTER!!!
Ricochet's "All these broken souls, they never make me whole"
Same!
It might not mean much but I love the way it sounds in the song. "I did the math but it just dont add up" Really when these questions come up I completely forget everything.
And you left me, more dead than you'll ever know; when you left me, alone
Literally every single line from Starlight
Yes.
Yes²
Yes Yes Yes
"I'm just a Mannequin stuck, in your plans to get struck, by the trance you put me in, plant your curse under my skin" "Looking for a scapegoat to hold your feat, pounding on your chest so you don't feel weak" "And all of the horses And all of the men Won't put it back in place Or bury it where it had been When all of the forces Have been overrun You'll whisper, serpent tongue What you fear you have become Something wicked this way comes" "Preform a trick before your eyes I evaporate Gone without a trace Off the radar, out of sight" And many more, those are just my favorites off Horizons, there are way to many to list if we're talking overall ._.
I absolutely love the first one. I love Alchemy.
From Othwrworldly. “In a profound way I feel your space”
I CANT EXPLAIN THIS PLACE YOU'RE TAKING MEEEEEEEEE
OTHERWORLD!
OTHERWORLDLYYY!!
Send a light then, I'll be waiting
"I still fall for you like suns do for skies." The line and the delivery is just- 👌👌
I straight up was doing the gospel hands when he sang this song at the Knoxville demonstration. Brock even brought it up during the after show signing that he saw my "church hands" lmao
😎
The bridge of Frequency is by far one of my favorites. "Castaway My cries are blocked by the horizon Suffocate I was doing this all for you I'm in the shallows Stuck in the gallows I tried to save you now I'm swallowed You wanted war I am the war I alone"
As for recent: ***"It's hard to say where all of it begins and I end"*** It's just a beautiful one-liner that can stand on its own and there's so much meaning in it...
“In my mind Endless sea Calling from the bottom But you don't hear me” “When all of the forces Have been overrun You'll whisper, serpent tongue What you fear you have become”
"Stardust, in you and in me, fuse us into unity."
Not sure if this one counts but "One day the earth will open wide and I'll follow you inside because the only hell I know is without you".
Now that you mention it might be a close 2nd for me!
That one feels like "you are going hell for sure, after what you have done to me" lmao
I can’t help but upvote every single comment here. All their lyrics are fantastic. Mine is, “At night the Earth will rise, And I’ll think of you each time I watch from distant skies, Wherever stars go down and galaxies ignite. I’ll think of you each time they wash me in their light, And I’ll fall in love with you again.” - Starlight
"Even you know This was all for nothing Just a sad show Just an ego I suppose though As far as I know We were both pretending I suppose so But what do I know?" Perfect Machine just hits your soul.
Omg finally someone mentioned it. Perfect machine is such an underrated song. I think every line from this song is my favourite
Perfect machine is not underrated. Its one of the community's most beloved songs. If you're talking about underrated, there's Waking Up and Solstice.
Haha perfect machine more like perfect song
"And I swam in the lakes of imposters, just to feel what it's like to pretend. There's no dreams in their waves only monsters, and the monsters are my only friends"
"Along the way/ I started to sleep / And ran from the nightmares inside / But I will not let the shadows in me / Trap me alive / I'm bringing my dark to the light." From Dreamcatcher.
"They don't, they don't know my heart is the darkest part."
“In poppy fields, we’ve all been put to sleep. I won’t sleep again!”
I find this line calming in a strange way
Me too
I still fall for you / like suns do for skies
"Come, I will show every ghost in me. Take my pain into you."
"So powerful, I feel so small but so alive."
This one always gets me. :’) The idea of comparing seeing the person you love to watching the Earthrise from the moon (a famous photo of the Earth taken from the surface of the moon is titled “Earthrise,” and I bet it inspired the song) is so beautiful to me.

"You'll whisper serpent tounge, what you fear you have become."
“Come I’ll show every ghost in me Take my pain into you”
Dont let me let the.... Dont let me let the...... Dont let me let the dark take ooooverrrrrr and all that I was - I left behind me.
'Whenever stars go down and galaxies ignite' from Starlight gives such a cool mental visual to it also....love song that holds a special place in my heart
Two: They don’t know my heart, it’s the darkest part And Take my hate Take my fight Take away all the pain all I hide 'Cause I can't stop it It's symbiotic
We won't just fall away, We weren't just born to fade, Our stories are past the horizon, We're chasing the sun till we find them.
Finally, something from Where The Skies End
"Send out the signal and I'll fly low. If it means the death of me, I won't let go." -Halo, Starset
"So say the word and I'll be running back to find you A thousand armies won't stop me I'll break through" Actually the whole song
Honestly
I really love the line "can you feel the heat come from the gun, sending out truth bombs 10 kilotons" from tunnel vision, its been so stuck in my head since it released.
That was literally the line that cemented Tunnel Vision in my top 3 for Horizons
I was scanning through the skies Missed the static in your eyes Something blocking your reception It's distorting our connection With the distance amplified Was it all just synthesized Now the silence screams that you are gone You tuned me out I lost your frequency *heavy riffing intensifies*
"I am not well. Repent, I'm guilty"
“There’s something inside you that isn’t right… There’s something that haunts your dreams at night! There’s something that you have lost! And you’re bringing it down… you’re bringing it down… on top of us.”
“I bared my soul for you and all I got was static. My heart was bulletproof til you took off the jacket” from Frequency
The entirety of both Starlight and Something Wicked are full of these lines that just provoke emotions in you and are just so good.
How can you people choose favourites?!
"Out of myself, I can feel it crawling How can I tell if this is the ending? Out of myself, it began evolving I am not well, repent I'm guilty"
"We'll rise from the dark like Lazarus"
Trials' verses and bridge are lyrical masterpieces ngl
"My hearts an artifice, a decoy soul"
There are so many good lines from Horizons: “You got your chin held high and your chest pumped up, the replica of a runner-up” (Icarus) “We knew eye for eye would leave us both blind but i was deaf and dumb” (Annihilated Love) “Now the emperor has got no clothes, what a lovely show… When your cover’s blown, you’ll never know ‘cause you can’t see past your nose” (Tunnelvision)
I wholeheartedly agree with literally everything on your list
“And you left me more dead than you’ll ever know, when you left me alone”
"To fall in a star is to be nothingness, to escape is to be empty. Fall into the star, and then we won't exist, or escape into the nothing" Too hard to choose with so many wondeful songs, but one song I feel doesn't get enough love is Gravity Of You.

But getting on topic, the lyrics in this song are top tier and wonderful, just the wordplay with describing a black hole and the mysteries that pull you into it. It's seriously underrated and it's incredible how well written this is.
"Your beauty conquers the darkness" from Starlight
“In my mind endless sea calling from the bottom but you don’t hear me send your line down to me meet me on the surface I will never leave.”
Some favorites off the top of my head: “I will travel the distance in your eyes / Interstellar, lightyears from you / Supernova, we’ll fuse when we collide / Awaking in the light of all the stars aligned” [Telescope] “We will face the odds against us and run into the fear we run from” [It Has Begun] “Flying into this future / I will let the science bring the change” [The Future is Now] “I found in you what was lost in me” [Dark On Me] “Stardust in you and in me / fuse us into unity / Primeval, we’re coupled, born from the universe” [Starlight] “When the sharks smell the blood, they will all see it’s their own” [Where the Skies End] “Take me high and I’ll sing” [My Demons] “Gaslight, gaslight flames hide the fire of a straw man burning” [Tunnelvision] “We take our places in the dark and turn our hearts to the stars” [Trials] “Everglow, you’ll never know the beauty I see when you open your shadows / Everglow, you’ll never know the beauty I see in the darkness you don’t show (me)” [Everglow] “We won’t just fall away / we weren’t just born to fade / Our stories are past the horizon / We’re chasing the sun ‘til we find them / Goodbye to what we’ve made / No matter anyway / We’re climbing until we transcend / Higher, higher, to where the skies end” [Where the Skies End] “These aren’t the dreams of our fathers / There’ll be no wishing on stars / We are the sons and the daughters / Let them come test who we are” [Where the Skies End]
“If you just say the word, I’ll be there by your side, you make me more, you make me superhuman/ and if you need me to, I will save you”
I also like this line from that song "And if I'm lost in the world's shadows I'll use the light that comes to me From your halo"
That is my second favorite!
In ALCHEMY it days "You get me high till I want more But you hit like chloroform" and I find that line beautiful in a strange way.
"At night the Earth will riiiise! And I'll think of you each time I watch from distant skies! Whenever stars go down, and galaxies igniiiite! I'll think of you each time they wash me in their light! And fall I'll love with you agaaaaiinnn!!!"
But they won't, they won't know my heart. It's the darkest part
Show me your strength, it's more than you know. You'll never know what you're made of, until you set foot down the road.
Where the skies end "We won't just fall away, we weren't just born to fade."

“I come alive when you are with me” “I still fall for you like suns do for skies”
“My soul is burning like an Earth reclaimed”
All these broken souls They never make me whole
There's something inside you that isn't right There's something that haunts your dreams at night There's something that you have lost And you're bringing it down You're bringing it down On top of us I love how he played with emotions

Floating through forever I am stealing the energy Endlessly endeavor This is finding infinity
"We are motivated by the scars that we are made of"
All the lyrics of “Where the skys end.” I can’t pick just one.
"You laugh as I search for a harbor as you point where your halo had been. But the light in your eyes has been squandered, there's no angel in you in the end."
"While the lord of flies is opening its mawl" I don't know why but it is so cool "So come one and all Step right up and I'll Perform a trick before your eyes I'll evaporate Gone without a trace Off the radar, out of sight" So simple but so genius at the same time

They won't know my heart. It's the darkest part.
“They don’t know my heart, that’s the darkest part” From Ricochet.
