Sleeping at Last - Lyricist Spotlight

I love musicians who are poets at heart. Not that anything can really beat "Players wanna play play play play play and haters gonna hate hate hate hate hate," but sometimes I want something with a little more depth.

So this is the beginning of a series of posts where I will spotlight some of my favorite bands who write stunning lyrics.

Today, that band is Sleeping at Last.

I just discovered this band thanks to Pandora and found the CD Atlas: Year One on Amazon Music (free if you have Prime!). I've been listening to it almost non-stop since I downloaded it.

Their music is epic like a movie soundtrack - symphony-like and soothing. But I've really fallen in love with their lyrics. The lyrics are so quotable I want to print all of them out and decoupage my walls with them.

Here are some examples:
