The Silence Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
She'll get you just what you need
Oh take a good hard look in her righteous chest
She's always got the very best
She drives around all day and night
Keepin' all those kids alive
Not in a hurry but dont you worry
She'll be here eventually
Then follow me
I'll take you to the spark that lights the fire thats burning me
(Yeah)
Angels eyes and a mothers smile
A look that never fails to deceive
What lies behind that great disguise
Is the greedy genius that you need
(Go)
She drives around all day and night
Keepin' all those kids alive
Not in a hurry but dont you worry
She'll be here eventually
If you wanna rise to the top of the world and back
Then follow me
I'll take you to the spark that lights the fire thats burning me
(Yeah)
If you wanna rise to the top of the world and back
Then follow me
I'll take you to the spark that lights the fire thats burning me

The lyrics of The Silence's song "The Fire" portray a character, referred to as "she," who holds great influence and power over others. When she arrives, everyone gravitates towards her and seeks her guidance. She has the ability to provide exactly what people need, and her presence is admired and respected. The phrase "take a good hard look in her righteous chest" suggests that she possesses a sense of righteousness or moral superiority.
The lyrics also describe her as always having the best, indicating that she is abundant and capable of fulfilling people's desires and aspirations. She is depicted as constantly on the move, driving around day and night, ensuring the well-being and survival of "all those kids." This may symbolize her responsibility to protect and support those who rely on her.
Despite her constant activity, she is not in a rush, and the lyrics reassure us not to worry as she will eventually arrive. This suggests that her presence is sought after, and waiting for her is worth the wait and effort. The lyrics depict her as a figure who can enable others to reach the pinnacle of success and experience the world to its fullest. By implicitly proclaiming "Follow me," the singer promises to lead the listener to the catalyst that ignites their own passion and motivation.
The lyrics also touch on the contrast between her external appearance and her true nature. Describing her with phrases like "Angel's eyes and a mother's smile," she seems benevolent and nurturing. However, the line "What lies behind that great disguise/Is the greedy genius that you need" suggests that there may be a cunning or manipulative aspect to her personality. This reveals that her seemingly innocent facade hides a calculating and ambitious side, which may be necessary for success and advancement in certain contexts.
Overall, the lyrics suggest that this woman holds an influential position and possesses the ability to guide others towards their goals. However, they also hint at the complexity of her character, alluding to both her nurturing qualities and her ambitious nature. The lyrics paint a picture of a figure who is both respected and revered, yet potentially deceptive and driven by self-interest.
