Hush
WIND MILE Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I can no longer say out loud
The things I try to forget
I wonder if you'd still be proud
If I can't stop my eyes from getting wet
Silence is taking so much space
Invading my soul with grace
No room for anger
How does it feel to feel like ?
As I can only talk about how it feels to be
How does it feel to feel like ?
As I can only talk about how it feels to be
They wanted me to say the words
I couldn't even make up my mind
Were they really the cowards ?
Or how could I've been so much blind ?
My skin and body (it) does feel
Like no home anymore
'Wish you would rather steal
Money than honour
How does it feel to feel like ?
As I can only talk about how it feels to be
How does it feel to feel like ?
As I can only talk about how it feels to be
The song "Hush" by Wind Mile delves into the theme of silence and how it can create a powerful impact on our souls. The lyrics express the persona's inability to voice out certain things that are painful and remind them of past experiences they wish to forget. They wonder if their loved ones would still see them as strong if they can't control the tears that come from the deep-seated emotions within. The silence seems to be consuming their mind, yet they are trying hard not to give up on themselves, even in the midst of such overwhelming feelings. The silence that the persona is experiencing has a touch of grace to it, almost like an acceptance of what has happened, and it stands in contrast to the anger that is also present.
The second verse amplifies the sense of helplessness that the persona is going through. They were asked to say certain words, but they couldn't even make up their mind. There is a sense of confusion and lack of clarity concerning some issues. The third line, "Were they really the cowards?" suggests a hint of blame games and this is shown when the persona blames themselves for not seeing things in a clearer perspective. The chorus reflects the constant feeling of longing to understand how others feel but being unable to do so because the persona is the one experiencing the emotions. The last verse talks about how the persona feels disconnected from themselves, as if their body doesn't feel like home anymore. They wish that if anyone would steal from them, it would be their money and not their honor.
