Radio Silence
Kassassin Street Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
From the darkest part where all is consumed
I wrap my tentacles around your leg
Just cover the cracks and then relax
From the highest point in the sky
Obscured by clouds that caught my eye
I wrap my tentacles around your neck
The shame
Is all on me
It's easier to hide
Than change what you can see
If radio silence is the key
Do you receive me?
Do you receive me?
I'm in your room under your bed
I stole the lead from above your head
I wrap my tentacles all around
There's no one here, please make no sound
The shame
Is all on me
It's easier to hide
Than change what you can see
If radio silence is the key
Do you receive me?
Do you receive me?
Just take the blocks and build them higher
Let's raise this up
Let's raise this up
Just take the blocks and build them higher
Let's raise this up
Let's raise this up
This up
The shame
Is all on me
It's easier to hide
Than change what you can see
If radio silence is the key
Do you receive me?
Do you receive me?
If radio silence is the key
Do you receive me?
Do you receive me?
So be careful what you choose to believe
I'm the same me
The lyrics of Kassassin Street's song "Radio Silence" are rich in imagery and symbolism. The song seems to be about a person who has some kind of emotional baggage or hidden shame that they want to keep hidden. The first and second verses describe this person as coming "from the deepest ocean" and the "darkest part," respectively. This suggests that they have been through difficult times and perhaps have some secrets that they want to keep hidden. The reference to tentacles in both verses gives the impression that this person is something of a monster who is trying to strangle the singer, but also implies that they are reaching out for help.
The chorus of the song is quite straightforward, with the singer expressing their fear of being judged or rejected: "The shame is all on me / It's easier to hide / Than change what you can see / If radio silence is the key / Do you receive me?" The idea of "radio silence" suggests that the singer wants to shut out the world and avoid any kind of communication that could expose them to criticism or judgment. The repeated question "Do you receive me?" highlights their fear of being unheard or misunderstood.
The final verse introduces a new element to the song, as the singer says that they are hiding "under your bed" and have "stolen the lead from above your head." This verse seems to be addressed to someone specific, perhaps a lover or friend, who is unaware of the singer's secrets. The repeated refrain of "Let's raise this up" at the end of the song suggests that the singer wants to work through their issues and build a better relationship with the person they are addressing.
Overall, "Radio Silence" is a poetic and powerful song about the fear of rejection and the urge to hide one's true self from the world.

From the deepest ocean, I came to you
I approached you from the most profound depth, hoping to reach you
From the darkest part where all is consumed
I came from the gloomiest part where everything is annihilated
I wrap my tentacles around your leg
I cling to you like an octopus, holding your leg tightly
Just cover the cracks and then relax
Let's hide the imperfections and forget, so we can unwind
From the highest point in the sky
I descended from the highest peak in the sky
Obscured by clouds that caught my eye
I was concealed by clouds that I found interesting
I wrap my tentacles around your neck
I hold you in a suffocating grip, restraining your neck
Just cover the cracks and then relax
Let's ignore the faults and unwind
The shame
I feel guilty
Is all on me
I'm solely responsible for it
It's easier to hide
It's simpler to conceal
Than change what you can see
Rather than altering the apparent truth

If silence is the solution

There's no one here, please make no sound
We're alone here, so keep quiet
Just take the blocks and build them higher
Just take the obstacles and strengthen ourselves against them
