Tells the story of a man in love with a woman, who is already in a relationship.
That doesn't deter the teller though, they are sure that the woman will eventually realise that he is best for her (not her current beau).
However about 3 minutes in the tone of song (music and lyrics) take a turn, where he has been rejected by her ... and he is left to discover his "sinister side" (which becomes his nickname that the people in his imagined world give him "Sinister Silence").
There are also clues throughout that he is mute ... but I feel that the story told is one that people can relate to without the actual album's concept. Personally I was involved in a relationship where I got really close to my best friends girl (we actually loved each other ... but never did anything about it, in essence we both remained "mute" about our love).
