Silence
Marshmello Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
'Cause all my life, I've been fighting
Never felt a feeling of comfort, oh
And all this time, I've been hiding
And I never had someone to call my own, oh nah
I'm so used to sharing
Love only left me alone
But I'm at one with the silence
I found peace in your violence
Can't show me, there's no point in trying
I'm at one, and I've been quiet for too long
I found peace in your violence
Can't show me, there's no point in trying
I'm at one, and I've been silent for too long
I've been quiet for too long
I've been quiet for too long
I found peace in your violence
Can't show me, there's no point in trying
I'm at one, and I've been quiet for too long
I'm in need of a savior (savior), but I'm not asking for favors
My whole life, I've felt like a burden
I think too much, and I hate it
I'm so used to being in the wrong, I'm tired of caring
Loving never gave me a home, so I'll sit here in the silence
I found peace in your violence
Can't show me, there's no point in trying
I'm at one, and I've been quiet for too long
I found peace in your violence
Can't show me, there's no point in trying
I'm at one, and I've been silent for too long
I've been quiet for too long
I've been quiet for too long
I found peace in your violence
Can't show me, there's no point in trying
I'm at one, and I've been quiet for too long
In Marshmello's "Silence," the lyrics seem to explore the themes of loneliness, feeling lost, and the inability to communicate effectively. The singer refers to himself as a fighter who has spent their entire life battling rather than loving, never experiencing true comfort or having someone to call their own. They're not accustomed to sharing love and have only ever felt alone.
However, the singer claims to have found peace in the violence of the person they're addressing. It seems that the person's aggression has a calming effect on the singer, who has been quiet and hiding for too long. They acknowledge that they're in need of a savior but aren't asking for any favors.
The song could be interpreted as a plea for someone to understand the singer or an admission of the singer's inability to express themselves effectively. They find comfort in the silence and appear to be tired of caring and feeling like a burden. The lyrics are rather vague and could be applied to various situations or relationships.
