GUYS GUYS GUYS.
ITS NOT JUST THE KEYCHAIN. HES GOT AT LEAST 3 FAN GIFTS ON THE JACKET.
Including the 3 of Swords *AND* the rune patch!!! WHICH with those two in particular means the designer had to specifically leave room for them??? So they were worked into the design special?
And idk that’s just got me feeling some kinda way

I wanted to add on to this ask done by an anon on ST confessions, because they are so right and they made something click in my brain. Do go read it before you read this.
First, off, heavy agree that Fall for Me is designed to be a lonely song, both lyrically, and quite smartly, musically. In every single other song Sleep Token has ever done there is music. There is noise, always. Even in times where there should be silence, there never is any. Instead, it's filled by sounds of birds, a taught guitar chord or chewing and biting.
Fall for Me, however, is utter silence. There's no musical reply. No SFX, no subtle drums or bass; no nothing. It's the one of the few songs (along with Missing Limbs, Take Aim and Drag me Under) in which Vessel directly addresses the love he holds for this person. It's not layered in metaphors, prose and an eloquent vernacular, it's straightforward. While his poetry in other songs is used to draw Them in, decorate his love and entice Them, he's done with getting nothing. He wants to be an equal, a lover, but he gets naught.
The reason why, other than the obvious choice of acapella instead of instruments, the song feels so lonely is because it's the only song- overall- that he doesn't get a response to. Sugar is the response to The Offering, Say That You Will is the response to Take Aim etc., but here? Cold, dead silence. No gesture in tongues, no crushing 'affection'; no nothing.
So, to the rhythm of eternity, he will be on that beach, stumbling, crawling and shouting out the same question that he will never get an answer to; won't you fall for me?
However, even though, unlike most songs that get an answer within their album, Vessel gets one in the next. Take Me Back To Eden, therefore, becomes the answer to that question. As well as Vessel's action against it.
@lifemod17 saw you reblog the ask as well, thought you might like this :]

Okay, I have a lore question. During their live shows, why do they kiss? Is that supposed to be Sleep taking them over? Am I just looking too far into this, and there is no lore? It's just something they do for funnies?

Continuing on from this post. But, okay, like... I swear in the first photo I can see his eyes? But then in the second, it looks like mesh, and the third is just way too hard to tell 🤷♀️ Maybe it was just the full mask that didn't have mesh over the eye holes? But then I swear he had mesh over them too in several photos (or maybe they were edited idfk).
Anyway, click on "Keep Reading" to see my sleep paralysis demon 👍
His name is III and though he looks terrifying he's actually a big, lanky sweetheart 🖤

that's so funny I honestly thought it was a relatable post about how it was kind of weird that Jericho had like. 30 seconds of silence at the end. I'm making a poll about this I have to know if there's anyone else who noticed this
this is a reference to this post where I tried to make a joke only to realize a lot of people might not know what the hell I was talking about
I ACCIDENTALLY MADE THIS POLL ONLY A DAY LONG, IF IT HAS ENDED (or you want to participate in both polls) PLEASE LOOK IN THE REBLOGS/NOTES FOR THE OTHER ONE
also please pass this around am curious about the results

I finally figured out why ivy looks so unbelievably good while simply leaning against something on stage. He's like a book boyfriend leaning against a doorframe! And if there is one universal rule, it is that leaning against a doorframe makes someone irresistible and 100x more attractive than they already were
