Fragments
Silent Line Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
When we tell the mind to stop
And I blame this all on me
One last thought
Break away
From the torment of this
Every day
Lucid dreams
As they pass they can
Make it seem
That all your life is a lie
Hold on
To the promise of a
New dawn
Bathed in light
Now push away
All the hatred in this
Broken day
In every way you are
It's a crime for all to see
When we tell the mind to stop
And I blame this all on me
One last thought
Break down the past fragility
Before we are gone
Held up by things we cannot see
Cut it off
Hollow
All the fear inside that
Must go
Chase it out
Now fall away
From the sickness in this
Broken day
Far away
It is time for all to see
As we tell the mind to stop
Caring for compassion, loyalty
Our lives rot
Hold on to things that cannot be
And mend those that come undone
Fragments of our past
They fall away
The lyrics of Silent Line's song "Fragments" explore themes of personal struggle, self-blame, and the need for change. The song opens with the realization that it is a crime for everyone to witness the suppression of one's own mind when told to stop. The singer takes responsibility for this action, admitting that they blame themselves for it. Amidst this struggle, there is a fleeting moment of hope and respite as the chorus encourages the listener to break away from the torment and find solace in the fact that they are not alone.
The second verse continues the theme of breaking away from past fragility and invisible burdens before it is too late. The notion of being held hostage by unseen forces is introduced, urging the listener to cut them off. The lyrics convey the importance of shedding fear and chasing it out, ultimately falling away from the sickness that governs the brokenness of the day.
The final verse highlights the need for change and the recognition that it is time for everyone to see the importance of stopping the mind from being complacent. Caring for compassion and loyalty is juxtaposed with the stagnation and decay of our lives. The lyrics implore us to hold onto the intangible aspects of life and mend what has become undone, acknowledging that fragments of our past will inevitably fall away.
Overall, "Fragments" conveys a message of personal accountability, the desire for change, and the need to let go of the invisible burdens that hold us back.
