Starfall
Silent Line Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I cannot find the path in endless night
The map I held decays
We're all infected
Despair
Growing, bending, breaking down
The sky
The light will blind us all
Seek the shade of somewhere else
Somewhere new
A cover light cannot get through
We thought it was the time
To make our way out from the dark
The steepest climb
We are all one
Under the shining sun
Cold and dark grip our minds
Until the ending of night
And a sign of its passing
We go
Back home
Past the dying stars
Light is gone til our eyes
Glimpse the ending of night
And our hope falls crashing
Please remind me there are brighter days ahead
I need to rewrite this bitter end
The blood is leaving these shattered hands
The snow has become
The red of the sun
The stars are falling down
Streaming through the endless night
One more time
Now we breathe our final sigh
In shadows we reside
Traitors of the darkened sky
A million suns will die
The lyrics in Silent Line's song Starfall convey themes of hopelessness, despair, and the struggle to find light in the midst of darkness. The singer is pleading for someone to provide guidance and a ray of light to help them find their way. They feel lost and unable to navigate through the endless night, and their map has decayed. The despair is affecting everyone, and they feel like they are all infected.
The lyrics also touch on the futility of trying to find hope in a situation where darkness is pervasive. The singer alludes to the fact that the light will eventually blind them all and that the only solution is to seek refuge in a place where the light cannot get through. However, they also acknowledge that we all thought it was the right time to leave the darkness behind and make our way out, but the climb is steep and difficult.
The song suggests that hope can still be found, but it requires a reminder that there are brighter days ahead. The singer is calling for a rewrite of the current situation and expresses the desperation of their shattered hands and the snow that has become red as the sun. As the stars fall down, the singer takes one final breath before residing in shadows as traitors of the darkened sky. The ending of the night symbolizes a new beginning, but it comes at the cost of a million suns dying.
