Sit Down Lyrics

Cover art for Sit Down lyrics by Flunk

I think the song is about that moment when you stop and think about the decisions you have made or which you have to take. The war the singer talks about is life itself. And he is almost entirely on auto-pilot the whole journey through life. But now he stops: "I'm still at the front but I don't, I don't fight - I'm gonna sit down tonight". He doesn't despair, he doesn't take any superficial decision. He just stops and starts to hear his own deep thoughts. The result? "Listen to the silence in between - it's louder than the bombs that come screaming in". The silence may be anything: regret, remorse, depression, fear, uncertainty or all together.

My Interpretation

That's exactly what my opinion is here since this song doesn't contain meanings or lines that can directly be related to war or any physical interaction in that way but on the other hand relates to a silence of subjective matter - the one in your head. Great thinking or29544 and a great interpretation of a touching song.
