The Silence Lyrics

Torn in two, she lies awake
The moon lights up the room like day
Another night she spends alone
Without his touch, her skin's so cold

The blood that's running through her veins
With every beat, there's no escape
Lost in everything she trusts
Still can't seem to get enough

Even though the world she loved
It won't ever be the way it was
And his heart of stone
Left hers breaking

Every night she cries
And dies a little more each time
Say you love me
(You love me)
Nothing left inside
Say you love me
And the silence will set her free

Memories, they take her back
Every moment fades to black
Every kiss and every taste
She wishes time would ease the pain

Even though the world she loved
It won't ever be the way it was
And her heart is weak
Her hands are shaking

Every night she cries
And dies a little more each time
Say you love me
(You love me)
Nothing left inside
Say you love me
And the silence will set her free
And every night she cries

I don't know if I'll ever make this right
'Cause I am just so broken
By the bitterness of loneliness
And I'm so scared of this
I don't know if I'll ever make this right
'Cause I am just so broken
By the bitterness of loneliness
And I'm so scared

Even though the world she loved
It won't ever be the way it was
And his heart of stone
Left hers breaking

Every night she cries
And dies a little more each time
Say you love me
(You love me)
Nothing left inside
Say you love me
And the silence will set her free
(Every night she cries, every night she cries)
The silence will set her free

Some of the lyrics are wrong, but I'm not going to correct it. This song is about a girl who's totally head over heels for a guy that she had a relationship with. But he broke up with her because he "doesn't feel the same anymore". Or some other lame excuse like that. And she can't get over him, but he's completely cold to her now. He treats her like a stranger. Aghh, this hits close to home. =/

@veggiestyle not to be rude but that’s not what this song is about?

@veggiestyle “Derek Sanders said they wrote it for the "Twilight: New Moon" soundtrack ("without his touch of skin so cold"). However, the sound never made it onto the soundtrack.

The meaning of the silence is about a girl who is cheated on and abused by her boyfriend and she cries every night”

I like the song. It has a less upbeat sound. It reminds me a little of Tales Told By Dead Friends. I'm super excited for the new CD. <333

I said it in the Anywhere But Here comments, but I'll say it again. This vibe is reminiscent of the Hawthorne Heights, Armor For Sleep, and Silverstein era. I love it. It's not the happy techno stuff that we're hearing a lot of now, it's darker, but it's full of meaning. I love it, and I've missed this stuff. Fuck, I can't get enough of this. I have a feeling I'm breaking out The Silence in Black and White tonight.

I especially like the chorus line "the silence will set her free". "Say you love me" but he doesn't say that. He doesn't answer. And in the silence, she has her answer. Whether she likes it or not, she knows how he feels now and all she can do is try to detach.

I completely agree with everything "veggiestyle" has said.

Think this song really relates to me a lot, I love it. I can't wait to hear the rest of the album! XD

I love how dark they're getting. It's a nice change. Basically what Veggiestyle has written.

I'm so pumped for the new CD now.
