"I can feel the quiet river rage
forcin' my lips into a smile
don't believe that the world is empty
just too noisy to hear the sound "

When he says that it's too noisy to hear the sound, he's talking about the constant through process occurring in most of our minds. This incessant thinking is mental noise, and it distracts a peson from living in the moment and feeling this quiet river. When I listen to this album, I believe most of the album is about this sort of thing.
