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.
Is there a right way for how this goes
You've got your friends
And you've got your foes
They want a piece of something hot
Forget your name like they forgot
Ain't that something?
So when I see you crash and burn
I criticize your every word
I'm trying to keep from going insane
Ain't that the way of this whole damn thing?
Trying to be something
More
Nobody's gonna love you if
You can't display a way to capture this
Nobody's gonna hold your hand
And guide you through
No, it's up for you to understand
Nobody's gonna feel your pain
When all is done
and it's time for you to walk away
So when you have today
You should say all that you have to say
Say all that you have to say
Is there a right way for being strong?
Feels like I'm doing things all wrong
Still I'm here just holding on
Confess my heart and forgive my wrongs
Just trying to show you something
More
Nobody's gonna love you if
You can't display a way to capture this
Nobody's gonna hold your hand
And guide you through
It's up for you to understand
Nobody's gonna feel your pain
When all is done
And it's time for you to walk away
When you have today
You should say all that you have to say
Don't point the blame when you can't find nothing
Look to yourself and you might find something
It's time that we sorted out
All of the things
We complain about
So listen close to the sound of your soul
Take back a life
We led once before
If it ain't you then who
If it ain't you
Then who's gonna love you?
Nobody's gonna love you if
You can't display a way to capture this
Nobody's gonna hold your hand
And guide you through
It's up for you to understand
Nobody's gonna feel your pain
When all is done
And it's time for you to walk away
When you have today
You should say all that you have to say
So when you have today
Say all that you have to say
