The Silence
PAZ Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Cold black dress with the high heels on
Gold necklace with a light baton
Blood red paint on her fingernails
But her fingers trail when the lights come on

Pink champagne that she adores
Lipstick stain by Michael Kors
Wrists decked out in the neon bands
And a pink handstamp from the night before

Nicotine and alcohol
THC and Adderall
On a pill that her best friend gave
Don't know what it is but anyway

Empty heart but her cup stays full
Drink until she's comfortable
Can't feel nothin, one more shot
But if feels so good when the music drops

Flashing lights, let me in
Hands go up when the record spins
Rush of life, MDM--
Turn it up and spin it back again

Crush of bodies all around
Once was lost but now I'm found
Shot off in space, to a distant place
And all a sudden everything ain't so loud...

And I believe
Life is a dream that reality breathes
And I believe
The Silence, The Silence watches over me

And I believe
Life is a dream that reality breathes
And I believe
The Silence, The Silence watches over me

It watches over me
It watches over me, it watches over me, it watches over me
It watches over me, it watches over me, I believe in The Silence
The Silence, washes over me

Cigarette from a Gucci clutch
Eyes go red when she lights it up
Only smokes when she gets fucked up
But yolo so it don't matter much

Where's my jacket where's my friends
Where's my lighter, phone is dead
Can't find shit yo who's that-- wait wait
The DJ's playin my song again

Synthesizers, disco balls
Crystal Geyser mixed with mol
Life is hard but it ain't so rough
When you're doin bumps in a bathroom stall

No one knows what you feel inside
No one knows if its real or lies
All she knows when the beat comes back
That its everything she ever had to realize (lies, lies)

And I believe
Life is a dream that reality breathes
And I believe
The Silence, The Silence watches over me

And I believe
Life is a dream that reality breathes




And I believe
The Silence, The Silence watches over me

Overall Meaning

The song "The Silence" by PAZ is a reflection on the nightlife and the lengths people go to escape their realities. The opening lines paint a picture of a woman in a black dress with high heels, a gold necklace, and blood red paint on her fingernails. She is accompanied by a pink champagne and a lipstick stain from Michael Kors, and her wrists are decked out in neon bands. The lyrics also mention nicotine, alcohol, THC, Adderall, and an unknown pill given by a friend.


The woman in the song is seeking escape from her empty heart by drinking until she is comfortable. She wants to feel something and continues to drink one more shot. The music is her solace as she feels lost in the crowd. The flashing lights, the rush of life, and the intensity of the music are her momentary escape. However, the silence watches over her, and she believes that it's what really keeps her safe.


The lyrics describe the surreal nature of the nightlife and the brief euphoria it provides. The Silence is a metaphor for the emptiness and loneliness that accompanies the escape from reality. This song is a reminder that, even in euphoria, one must not forget about the darkness that it accompanies.
