A moment of silence
Biv Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Crippled in my pain
Talk to me love
Am I sane
I Don't feel the same
No pressure, what they said now
They don't know what I let out
I'm surrounded by a grave now
Mama take hold of me
I'm scared of dying, scared to bleed
All my voices hear you speak
All my voices hear you speak
There's only you
There's only you
It's always been you
Sleeping through the holidays
Crippled in my pain
Talk to me love
Am I sane
I Don't feel the same
Tear my eyes out if you could
Kill the world where it stood
Just as we should, just as we should
Tear my eyes out if you could
The lyrics to Biv's song "A Moment of Silence" are raw and emotional, expressing feelings of pain, confusion, and fear. The opening lines, "Sleeping through the holidays, crippled in my pain," set the tone for the rest of the song. The singer is struggling with their emotions and searching for someone to talk to about their feelings. They ask for reassurance that they are sane, indicating that their thoughts may be getting the best of them. The line "I don't feel the same" suggests a change in their emotional state, as though they are not sure who they are anymore.
The second verse introduces the idea that others don't understand what the singer is going through. They feel pressure to hide their pain and act like everything is okay. We get the sense that the singer is isolated and struggling to cope. The line "surrounded by a grave now" is particularly poignant, suggesting that the singer feels trapped by their emotions and may be in a dark place mentally.
The chorus brings a glimmer of hope as the singer turns to a loved one for comfort. They are scared of dying and bleeding, but the voices in their head hear the comforting words of their mother. The repetition of "there's only you" emphasizes the importance of this person in the singer's life, and suggests that they are the only one who truly understands and can provide support.
Overall, "A Moment of Silence" is a vulnerable and emotional reflection on inner turmoil and the importance of human connection in times of crisis.

Sleeping through the holidays,
Crippled in my pain,
Talk to me love,
Am I sane?
I Don't feel the same,
No pressure, what they said now,
They don't know what I let out,
Everyday they don't see how,
I'm surrounded by a grave now,
Mama take hold of me,
I'm scared of dying, scared to bleed,
All my voices hear you speak,
All my voices hear you speak,
There's only you,
There's only you,
It's always been you,
Sleeping through the holidays,
Crippled in my pain,

I Don't feel the same,
Tear my eyes out if you could,
Kill the world where it stood,
Just as we should, just as we should,
Tear my eyes out if you could
