Everything You Ever Wanted To Know About Silence Lyrics
Nope.)
i have NEVER felt so much power and emotion from a song. gave me fucking CHILLLLS, man. oh my God. the only thing i have to say about the lyrics is the end [my favorite part]: "All wasted away. I'm digging a hole. This is what it's like to be alone." its actually "I'm digging a hole. I'll shut out the world. [insert line i dont know but really want to find out]. This is what it's like to be alone, this is what it's like to be alone."
^anyone know that line ?
Daryl ? thank you. and i'm sorry for the both of us.
ah found it. "I'm digging a hole. I'll shut out the world. No--I'm on top, I'm feeling done with this. This is what it's like to be alone, this is what it's like to be alone." boom. Jesus.

Daryl says: "It's basically about the sickness I have to deal with, and it's about the first two years I spent being diagnosed with it. It's just about how I dealt with it and also the lack of compassion I got from a certain woman during that period of my life. That was the period where she had grown outta me and I needed her most ya know? When I was down on my knees hoping not to die, dealing with sickness and all these big changes in my life that if you knew me you would have been there for me but... She knew me damn well and she whored herself around rather than being there for me during that point in my life. It's also about dealing with being completely alone. Being a kid who just got outta high school and not having any answers and not having anyone to give me the right answers about being sick and feeling alone. It's the most important thing I ever wrote in my whole life as far as music and lyrics are concerned."
i'm pretty sure this song is what got me through high school.
Such a good song. I love the "children shiver in the river" line, just cause it always makes me think of Mu Empire.
Haha, fuck. I meant to post this on Mu Empire, and say that I liked the line cause it reminded me of this song. Should probably not post at 2/3 AM anymore.

Nonetheless this is hands down the best GJ song, the ending still gives me chills everytime.

I have Ulcerative Colitis - which is the sister disease to Crohn's. I had to have my entire large intestine removed after 33 days in the hospital. This disease came out of no where to me and my boyfriend of two years left me during it. This song really hit home because there aren't many people who understand what it is like to poop bloody diarrhea and not being able to make it to the bathroom - it isn't your typical first date topic, yet it is such a huge part of who we are. While it doesn't define us, it does have an affect on our lives. I feel for ya Daryl. I wonder "Why" sometimes too.
Great song about the time he used to spend in hospitals alone.....even tho i cant relate to that i can relate to times when u are alone and everything seems 10X worse than it is....tho its nothing compared to what it must have been like for him!
i think this is the best song i have ever heard by glassjaw. the emotion that daryl puts into the end of it is amazing and i can almost feel the pain that he went through. i wish i could write a song like this.
Sean Huey
this song is pretty dope.....
the deftones are horrible...they dont touch this band...glassjaw is so much more powerful and intense in their songwriting...this song shows a pattern that you can see in a lot of their stuff, calm parts and crazy screaming parts...i cant get enough of it
My favorite GlassJAw song by far.
