The band has been around the local music scene for quite sometime now. Though their kind of music has evolved through the years due to a couple of evolutions to their line-up, they are still able to maintain a certain sound that is very Silent Sanctuary. Armed with catchy guitar riffs and heart-pounding melodies from the violins, the band has invaded numerous bars, schools, and other performance venues with the passion to share their music.

Sumabog ka't sabihin at aagapan natin
Kahit anong liwanag hindi nagpapatinag
Sana'y muling mayakap tayong dalawa sa ulap
Ano ba ang dahilan at nakuha mong lumisan
'Di ko alam ang nais na mangyari ng iyong isipan
Ano ba ang dahilan at pinili mong lumisan
Sa iba ka nawiwili nasa akin ba ang sisi
Nanahimik ka lamang ikaw lang ang may alam
Mga abo at alipato sa'kin lamang dumadapo
Bumibigat ang puso 'wag ka namang sumuko
Ano ba ang dahilan at nakuha mong lumisan
'Di ko alam ang nais na mangyari ng iyong isipan
Ano ba ang dahilan at pinili mong lumisan
Lihim na paalam ano ang dahilan
Dahan-dahang nasusunog ang tulay
Heto ako't walang kamalay-malay
Nakalutang ba tayo nakalutang sa mundo
Iyan ba ang gusto mo
Ano ba ang dahilan at nakuha mong lumisan
'Di ko alam ang nais na mangyari ng iyong isipan
Ano ba ang dahilan at nakuha mong lumisan
Lihim na paalam ano ang dahilan
Ano ba ang dahilan at nakuha mong lumisan
'Di ko alam ang nais na mangyari ng iyong isipan
Ano ba ang dahilan at pinili mong lumisan
Lihim na paalam lihim na paalam
Ano ba ang dahilan
Ano ba ang dahilan
Ano ba ang dahilan at pinili mong lumisan
Lihim na paalam ano ang dahilan
The song "Dahilan" by Silent Sanctuary expresses confusion and pain due to a sudden break-up. The singer wants the other person to be open and honest about why they left. The singer cannot understand what the other person was thinking, and they feel abandoned. The lyrics suggest that the other person found someone else but did not admit it. The singer feels blamed for something they did not recognize, and they are left alone, wondering what went wrong.
The song's message is relatable to anyone who has experienced a sudden ending in a relationship. The lyrics capture the confusion and the feeling of being left behind. The singer's vulnerability is evident in the lines "Ano ba ang dahilan at nakuha mong lumisan" (What's the reason you chose to leave me?), and the emotion is carried through the melodic phrases. The line 'Lihim na paalam ano ang dahilan' (Secret goodbye, what's the reason?) highlights the feeling of being left without clear communication.

Gusto kitang umamin reklamo mo sa akin
I want to confess, tell me what's bothering you
Sumabog ka't sabihin at aagapan natin
Explode and tell me, we'll address it together
Kahit anong liwanag hindi nagpapatinag
No matter how bright, it doesn't affect me
Sana'y muling mayakap tayong dalawa sa ulap
I hope we can embrace each other again in the clouds
Ano ba ang dahilan at nakuha mong lumisan
What is the reason why you left
'Di ko alam ang nais na mangyari ng iyong isipan
I don't know what your mind wants to happen
Ano ba ang dahilan at pinili mong lumisan
What is the reason why you chose to leave
Lihim na paalam ano ang dahilan
Secretly saying goodbye, what is the reason
Sa iba ka nawiwili nasa akin ba ang sisi
Do you prefer others, is it my fault
Nanahimik ka lamang ikaw lang ang may alam
You're just silent, you're the only one who knows
Mga abo at alipato sa'kin lamang dumadapo
Only ashes and stars stick to me
Bumibigat ang puso 'wag ka namang sumuko
My heart is getting heavy, don't give up
Dahan-dahang nasusunog ang tulay
The bridge is slowly burning
Heto ako't walang kamalay-malay
Here I am, unaware
Nakalutang ba tayo nakalutang sa mundo
Are we floating, floating in the world
Iyan ba ang gusto mo
Is that what you want
Lihim na paalam lihim na paalam
Secretly saying goodbye, secretly saying goodbye
Ano ba ang dahilan
What is the reason
Ano ba ang dahilan at pinili mong lumisan
What is the reason why you chose to leave
Lihim na paalam ano ang dahilan
Secretly saying goodbye, what is the reason

LOVE FADES! Kaya nasasabi ng mga taong mahal natin na nakakapagod na. Na gusto muna nilang magpahinga at hanapin ang sarili nila. Worst case ay hahanapin nila ang nawalang love sa ibang tao while in a relationship.
Kaya it's up to the both of you to keep that love aflame. Kung TRUE LOVE yan ay kayong dalawang mismo ang gagawa ng paraan to let that love grow even more in time. Love is a two-way relationship. Hindi lang dapat ikaw. Both should make efforts, kaya nga partners kayo e.
So kung ikaw nalang ang nageeffort at bigla niyang sabihin na ayaw na niya, hayaan mo siya. He/she is not worth it. Magiging masakit sa una yan pero trust me, it will heal with time. I've been there. Akala ko di ako makaka move on nung una, but I did ☺
Wait ka lang at darating din yung para sayo na susuklian yung love na kaya mong ibigay for them. You just need to trust HIM ☝
