ABOUT/MEANING: “Silence” portrays someone important as a place of calm within an overwhelming world. At first, the narrator relies on headphones to drown out the noise around him, feeling as though he is being carried away by the tide. Meeting “you” changes that: their presence becomes his “silence,” gently shutting out the noise and giving him warmth, stability and somewhere he wants to remain.

Silence is therefore not emptiness or an absence of communication, but a comforting space shared with another person. As the waves settle, even the colours and beauty the narrator thought he had lost begin to return. By repeating “you are my silence,” the song presents connection as a kind of refuge - someone whose presence makes a chaotic world feel quiet enough to breathe again.

LYRICS - ENGLISH TRANSLATION

Need my headphones to survive

Try to drown all the noise from outside

I was drifting with the tide

’Til you pull, you pull, you pulled me up 

Something changes, can’t explain it

Will you stay with me? 

When the world gets too loud

You are my silence

Your warmth

Gently covers my ears 

The waves calm down

You are my silence

Stay here ’til everything is calm

Show me that nothing can go wrong

You are my silence 

Woah-oh

You are my silence

Woah-oh

You are my silence 

The colours that dwell in silence

Repaint us anew

All the beauty I thought that I lost

Starts to flow, to flow, inside of us 

Something changes, can’t explain it

Will you stay with me? 

When the world gets too loud

You are my silence

Your warmth

Gently covers my ears 

The waves calm down

You are my silence (You are my silence)

Stay here ’til everything is calm

Show me that nothing can go wrong

You are my silence 

Woah-oh

You are my silence

Woah-oh

You are my silence

Woah-oh

You are my silence

Woah-oh

You are my silence
