Calling in Silence (feat. Nate Johnson) Lyrics

I am the answer to the calling deity
My master ordered thee
I am but a shadow of the man I use to be
I use to be alive
The touch of my skin is cold like the winter wind
My gaze is black as dark as sin
I am but a shadow of mankind
I am wicked
I am a creature; taunt me and you will see what hell made me
What
What have I become?
This
This is what I am
So dark and cold a hollow soul
So dark and cold I am alone
Alone
I am so cold
Why am I so cold?
The blood flows through
My pain consumes
I am the answer to the calling in silence
Calling in silence
No
This can't be me
No
What's become of me?
No
Salvation is my only key
What
What's become of me?

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

From my interpretation, is was similar to something i experienced personally during mania, the silence is over-bearing during mania, and the spiritual journey during it was tremendously fearfull yet crucially exciting! you have to confidence to do almost anything, but you are not invincible, no matter what any stupid essay about mania says about that. but i went into mania about a month before this album came out, and it was a way to cope with it, just as whitechapel helped me. Thanks C.g. oh and you all are sick live guys.
