Chasing Silhouettes
DJ Antoine Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I keep on chasing down your avenue
Ninety nine faces but it's never you
You're just around the corner
I can feel it
I keep on reaching for you
Cause I need it

I hear you call my name
I haven't slept for days
I might be going crazy
I know, yeah I know

I keep on chasing silhouettes
But I never find you
Like the smoke of cigarettes
I can never catch you
You make me
You keepin' me chasing your
You keepin’ me chasing your
Silhouettes
I wan't you
Silhouettes


I touch your body every night in my dream
Like sand in hands you slip away from me
I keep on running until I find you
I’m feeling so alone and lost without you

I hear you call my name
I haven't slept for days
I might be going crazy
I know, yeah I know, but still

I keep on chasing silhouettes
But I never find you
Like the smoke of cigarettes
I can never catch you
You keepin' me chasing your
You keepin’ me chasing your
Silhouettes
I wan't you
Silhouettes

I'm searching
I'm searching
Going around in circles
Till I find you, find you
Oh, this is torture
Girl I need you, I need you




Can’t you hear me calling
Going crazy baby

Overall Meaning

The song Chasing Silhouettes by Dj Antoine ft. Mad Mark is a love ballad that speaks about chasing a lost love, someone the singer cannot forget. The song begins with the singer describing how they keep chasing down a particular avenue looking for their love, but all they find are 99 faces that are not the one they are looking for. They feel like their lover is just around the corner, and they keep reaching out for them because they need them so badly. But no matter how hard they try, they can't seem to find the right person.


The chorus of the song repeats the theme of chasing silhouettes that the singer keeps seeing. They feel like they are chasing after something they can't quite reach, like smoke from a cigarette. They want their lover so badly, and all they can do is keep chasing after them.


The second verse talks about how the singer touches their lover every night in their dreams, but when they wake up, they are left feeling empty-handed. They are always running, searching, and feeling alone without their love. Still, they can't help but hear their love calling out their name, which has kept them awake for days, unsure if they are going crazy or not.


Overall, the song is a heart-wrenching expression of the painful feeling of losing someone you love and constantly looking for them everywhere. The chorus "You keepin' me chasing your silhouettes. I want you. Silhouettes" captures the central theme of the song, which is the relentless pursuit of someone you cannot have.
