The Silence
Om Unit feat. Jinadu Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I look into your eyes,
such a delicate array of light
surrounds you now
Dancing in the afterglow,
your sacred heart
who calls my name
How I long to be
in the centre of your storm
that rages gracefully
Landscapes made of light by the setting of your sun

The silence. It burns away my darkest thoughts
The silence, it opens up my every door

Breaking into my heart, suppress the doubt
Ushering the courage, the restless fight within me now
Open up the story, the pages burn
Breathing into this life, serenity in every part





The silence. It burns away my darkest thoughts
The silence, it opens up my every door

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Om Unit feat. Jinadu's song "The Silence" seem to capture the intensity and awe of being in the presence of someone who is both delicate and powerful. The opening lines speak of gazing into the eyes of this person and being surrounded by a delicate array of light. The reference to the "sacred heart" calling the singer's name suggests that there is a deep and meaningful connection between the two, causing a longing to be in the center of the other's "storm that rages gracefully." This could be interpreted as a desire to be close to someone who is both emotionally turbulent yet composed and beautiful.


The chorus of the song speaks to the power of silence in the singer's life. Rather than being a negative force that compels them to dwell on negative thoughts or feelings, the silence is portrayed as something that "burns away [the] darkest thoughts" and "opens up [the] every door" for the singer. The second verse speaks to a sense of transformation and empowerment that is brought about by this silence. Doubts are suppressed and courage is ushered in, allowing the "restless fight within" to come to fruition. Finally, the singer describes the pages of their story burning, with each breath bringing serenity to every part of their being.


Overall, "The Silence" seems to be a powerful meditation on the power of connection and the potential for transformation through stillness and contemplation. At its core, the song seems to suggest that being in the presence of someone who inspires and supports us can be a powerful force for change in our lives.

This is one of the most beautiful visual audio experiences ever. Induces contemplative catharsis and longing for transcendent realms of existence. Makes eyes fill with healing tears. Wonderful as day it was released.
