The Silence
Echoes of Unspoken Words: The Silence by Erase History Revealed
Lyrics
Can you hear me calling?
Asking if the listener can hear the speaker trying to communicate.
I'm breaking up with you
Announcing the end of a relationship.
I had all good intentions
Expressing initial positive intentions.
Good intentions you abused
Those good intentions were taken advantage of or misused.
What's killing me
Whatever is causing pain to the speaker is causing pain to the listener as well.
Is killing you
Reciprocal suffering between the speaker and the listener.
What are we gonna do?
Pondering a solution or course of action for their shared pain.
What's inside you
What's within the listener is easily noticeable or evident.
Is in plain view
Whatever is within the listener is apparent for others to see.
What are we gonna do?
Reiterating the contemplation of a solution to their shared situation.
Just listen
Requesting the listener to pay attention and listen.
Lying through your teeth
Accusing the listener of deceit or dishonesty.
It is written in your eyes
Emphasizing that the deceit is evident in the listener's eyes.
Hiding in your head
Suggesting that the root of the issue is within the listener's thoughts or mind.
Maybe that's the reason why
Suggesting a possible reason for the listener's forgetfulness or denial.
You don't remember what you said
Implying the listener's lack of effort to recall or acknowledge what was said.
You never even try
Indicating the listener's refusal or lack of attempt to remember.
So you pray about the time spent
Referencing prayers or hopes regarding past moments spent in silence or conflict.
Drowning in the silence
Highlighting the drowning feeling associated with silence in the past.
Pray about the time spent
Repetition of the reference to praying about past silent times.
Drowning in the silence
Reiteration of the drowning sensation linked to silence in the past.
Pray about the time spent
Repeating the notion of praying or hoping regarding previous moments of silence.
Drowning in the silence
Repeated emphasis on the suffocating feeling associated with past silence.
