Good-Bye in the Silence
Silent Cry Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

(Lyrics: Bruno Selemer, Music: Silent Cry)

The night cries taking this pain
Dying slowly
Murmuring deliriums to the wind
I feel its cold lips
I feel the tears in the silence
Spilling among my hands
As grains of sand
To the womb it comes back like this
To the veil of the mystery it will take
The shine of the old sun
In his light eyes
Walking in the runners of the insanity
In the silence I kept his good-bye

I feel your lips
Dying slowly





Walking in the runners of the insanity
In the silence I kept his good-bye

Overall Meaning

The opening lines of "Good-Bye in the Silence" by Silent Cry sets the tone for the rest of the song. The night is personified as a being capable of crying and the pain is so intense that the singer of the song is dying slowly. Murmuring deliriums to the wind suggests that the singer is hallucinating, either from medication or the pain. The coldness of the night, emphasized by the cold lips, intensifies the feeling of isolation and despair. The tears falling in the silence are a poignant way to illustrate how the singer is alone, left to suffer quietly. The metaphorical comparison of tears to grains of sand falling through fingers is a beautiful but melancholy image that strengthens the sense of loss and confusion.


The use of "womb" and "veil of mystery" suggests that the singer is grappling with a heavy topic, possibly death or the end of a relationship. When something returns to the womb, it is often an indication of the cycle of life and death, while the veil of mystery alludes to the unknown and the uncertainty of the afterlife. The line, "The shine of the old sun in his light eyes" indicates the memory of the loved one that has departed. They are no longer physically present, but their essence lingers in the memories of the singer. The walking in the runners of the insanity line suggests that the singer is struggling to come to terms with the loss and the overwhelming feelings of sadness, possibly leading to self-destructive behaviour.


Line by Line Meaning

The night cries taking this pain
Amidst the darkness, I hear the sounds of unbearable pain echoing around me


Dying slowly
Slowly but surely, my heart and soul are fading away into nothingness


Murmuring deliriums to the wind
My mind is in a state of chaos, and my thoughts are scattered and nonsensical


I feel its cold lips
I sense the icy embrace of loneliness and isolation enveloping me


I feel the tears in the silence
The only sound I hear is the quiet weeping of my sorrowful heart


Spilling among my hands
The tears overflow my eyes and fall through my fingers like grains of sand


To the womb it comes back like this
All my pain and anguish are returned to the beginning, like a cycle of rebirth


To the veil of the mystery it will take
My suffering will ultimately be absorbed by the unknown and mysterious forces of the universe


The shine of the old sun
The warmth and comfort of happier times are now distant memories


In his light eyes
I once found solace and safety in the gaze of another, but now that comfort is gone


Walking in the runners of the insanity
I'm lost in a world of madness and confusion, unable to find my way back to sanity


In the silence I kept his good-bye
Amidst the quiet, I'm haunted by the memory of the person I've lost and their final farewell

Jefferson Paiva

Vergonha para o dono da companhia fonográfica que lançou esta grande banda! Ele vendeu a Demise records para a inglaterra e se tornou um DJ ao invés disso. Eu tinha um amigo que trabalhava lá na época que fiz faculdade em Timóteo-MG, todos nós estamos indignados até hoje. O Silent Cry foi para a Helion Records em São Paulo, já quanto as outras boas bandas “Malefactor” e “Mysteries”, eu não sei dizer.

é de deixar as bandas gringas com inveja, saudades daquele show em bh com evergrey em 2005.
