Silver Lyrics

"Silver" probably refers to the pieces of silver that Judas received in payment for betraying Jesus (allegedly, if you prefer). The song is a well crafted verbal assault directed towards any traitor. "Terrance Henry" got his name dropped on the album version, but the lyrics are written with a blank, so we can fill in anyone who has betrayed our trust. It is full of celestial references, a common theme for 311, in this case a reminder of Karma. In other words, "You'll get what's coming to you for your lies and evil, you effin piece of sh*t!"
