Sleeping With Sirens es una banda estadounidense de post-hardcore que se formó en 2009 en Orlando, Florida. La banda fue creada por miembros de For All We Know, Broadway, y Paddock Park. Desde su inicio, el grupo ha estado activo en la escena musical con una energía y dinamismo que los ha distinguido de otros en su género.
La formación original de la banda incluía a vocalista Kellin Quinn, conocido por su amplio rango vocal y su particular tono de voz, junto con Jesse Lawson en la guitarra rítmica, Jack Fowler en la guitarra principal, Gabe Barham en la batería y Justin Hills en el bajo.
A lo largo de su carrera, Sleeping With Sirens ha lanzado varios álbumes de estudio, cada uno mostrando un crecimiento y evolución tanto en su estilo como en su contenido lírico. Sus temas abarcan desde la angustia juvenil hasta la autorreflexión y el empoderamiento personal.
Su primer álbum de estudio, With Ears to See and Eyes to Hear, fue lanzado en marzo de 2010. Este álbum presentó una mezcla de post-hardcore con elementos de pop punk, y rápidamente capturó la atención de una audiencia más amplia, alcanzando altas posiciones en las listas de Billboard. Canciones como If I'm James Dean, You're Audrey Hepburn y The Bomb Dot Com v2.0 se convirtieron en clásicos instantáneos para los seguidores de la banda.
I've got this new thing, I've got a new swing
I'll make you fall to your knees, I'll make your heart sing
I'll turn the lights out, I'm gonna get down
I'll be the new king, I will be your everything
I wanna live fast, I wanna die free
My blood is pumping, why can't you feel my heart beat?
I got that new sound, and when I come out
I'll be your nightmare, I'm coming for you don't be scared
(Don't be scared, don't be scared, I'm coming for you, don't be scared)
Look into my eyes, tell me what do you see?
Don't believe the lies that you heard about me, about me, about me, about me, about me
I know what you're thinking and those secrets that you keep
Just don't believe the lies that you heard about me, about me, about me, about me, about me, about me
I'll drive you insane, life in the fast lane
So hold on tight, we're never coming back again
And there's no free ride, so won't you get inside?
To play the game, honey, you have got to roll the dice
I could be bad luck, you might be crazy
Yeah, I've got 9 lives, you only have 3
You're like my technique, I'm on a winning streak
So watch that pretty mouth before you go and try to speak
(Try to speak, try to speak, before you go and try to speak)
Look into my eyes, tell me what do you see?
Don't believe the lies that you heard about me, about me, about me, about me, about me (Hey, hey hey!)
I know what you're thinking and those secrets that you keep (Woah)
Just don't believe the lies that you heard about me, about me, about me, about me, about me, about me
I know what you're thinking, I know those secrets that you keep
Don't believe the lies that you heard about me, about me
Look into my eyes, tell me what do you see?
(What do you see?)
Don't believe the lies that you heard about me, about me, about me, about me, about me
I know what you're thinking and those secrets that you keep
(The secrets that you keep)
Just don't believe the lies that you heard about me, about me, about me, about me, about me, about me
