Noise On The Line
Darkness Falls Lyrics

The lyrics of 'Noise on the Line' by Darkness Falls are contemplative and invoke a sense of longing to be with someone but not knowing where to start. The first two lines "If I could see, I wonder where I'll start," could be interpreted as the singer feeling lost, as though blinded by love and not knowing where to begin. The following lines "If you could breathe into my ear and whisper, how you wanted it," build on this idea and suggest that the singer wants to be directed by their love interest, as they are unsure how to proceed.

The chorus repeats the phrase "noise on the line," which could mean a few things. It could represent the literal noise on a telephone line, as a disconnect between the singer and their love interest, or it could refer to the distractions that keep the singer from pursuing their feelings. The verse "Will you resist if someone comes and asks you for a kiss, and should I be scared when you go out at night, my mind runs wild" explores the singer's thoughts and insecurities about their love interest. It suggests that they fear their love interest will stray, and they will be left alone.

Overall, 'Noise on the Line' is a song about uncertainty in love, fear of rejection, and the longing for guidance. The lyrics suggest that the singer is lost without their love interest and does not know how to proceed. The chorus implies that there is a divide between them, represented by noise on the line, but it is not entirely clear if this is a physical or emotional separation.
