[silence]
the peggies Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Oh don't it hurt deep inside
To see someone do something to her
Oh don't it pain to see someone cry
Oh especially when someone is her

Silence is golden, but my eyes still see
Silence is golden, golden, but my eyes still see
Talkin' is cheap people follow like sheep
Even though there is no where to go
How could she tell he deceived her so well
Pity she'll be the last one to know

How many times will she fall for his lines
Should I tell her or should I be cool
And if I tried I know she'd say I lied
Mind your business don't hurt her you fool

Silence is golden, but my eyes still see
Silence is golden, golden, but my eyes still see





Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

Overall Meaning

The peggies' song [silence] is a powerful ballad about the pain and frustration that comes with witnessing a loved one being hurt by someone else. The opening lyrics immediately set the tone for the song, as the singer asks, "Oh don't it hurt deep inside/ To see someone do something to her?" The pain of watching someone we care about be hurt is something that is universally relatable, and it's clear that the singer is deeply affected by what is happening to this person.


The chorus of the song, "Silence is golden, but my eyes still see/ Silence is golden, golden, but my eyes still see," highlights the struggle that comes with knowing that speaking up may cause more harm than good. It's a difficult decision to make - to speak up and risk causing more pain, or to stay silent and let the situation continue. The singer acknowledges that silence can be seen as a form of wisdom or maturity ("Silence is golden"), but it doesn't change the fact that the hurt they're witnessing still exists ("but my eyes still see").


The second verse delves even deeper into the complexity of these situations, as the singer questions why people often follow along even when it's clear that there is no good outcome ("Talkin' is cheap people follow like sheep/ Even though there is no where to go"). They also struggle with the idea of whether or not they should intervene and tell the person what is happening, even if it risks causing further pain ("Should I tell her or should I be cool/ And if I tried I know she'd say I lied/ Mind your business don't hurt her you fool"). Overall, the song is a powerful exploration of the pain, frustration, and difficult decisions that come with watching someone we care about being hurt by someone else.


Line by Line Meaning

Oh don't it hurt deep inside To see someone do something to her
It's emotionally painful to witness someone hurt the person you care about.


Oh don't it pain to see someone cry Oh especially when someone is her
It's heartbreaking to witness the person you care about cry, especially when they are the ones being hurt.


Silence is golden, but my eyes still see Silence is golden, golden, but my eyes still see
Sometimes it's best to stay silent, but even in silence, you still see and feel everything.


Talkin' is cheap people follow like sheep Even though there is no where to go
People are easily influenced by talk, even when there is no real direction or purpose behind it.


How could she tell he deceived her so well Pity she'll be the last one to know
It's difficult to spot deception when someone is good at hiding it, and it's unfortunate that the person being deceived often finds out last and suffers the most.


How many times will she fall for his lines Should I tell her or should I be cool
It's frustrating to watch someone continuously fall for someone else's deceitful ways, and it's a dilemma to decide whether or not to intervene and possibly hurt their feelings.


And if I tried I know she'd say I lied Mind your business don't hurt her you fool
Even if you try to tell someone the truth, they may not believe you or might blame you for hurting them, and it's easy to be called a fool for meddling.

自分用

運命なんて言えない
あと何センチ近付けば良いんだろう
君がいいと言えないまま見つめてる後ろ姿

余裕のない日々です
デートなんて自信がないな
君が眩しい程
僕は情けなくなってく

(会えない時間+君が笑った瞬間)÷2のこのときめきと
不器用な僕×強がりな君は案外プラスかもって
気付いてしまったら最後

まだね運命なんて言えない
あと何センチ近付けばいいんだろう
僕は君に何をしてあげれるかな
あの日大丈夫って笑顔
あと何センチ先を歩いてんだろう
君がいいと言えば追いつけるのかな 届くのかな

ふとした瞬間に
君の寂しさを知ったんだ
弱い僕はほらね
離れられなくなっていく

(やっと来たチャンス+いただけないこの会話)÷2で虚しくたって
不確かな今日×不安定な感情だからこそ僕は君を
見つけられたのかもしれない

だから運命だって信じたい
今数センチ近付いても良いかな
胸を裂くよ 振り向いてくれるたびに
君の笑顔も言葉も
もう何センチ 積もって消えやしない
綺麗事じゃ片付けられない程に想っている

運命だって言えるまで
笑ったように見せた君に届くまで
特別じゃない今の僕に出来ること

まだね運命なんて言えない
あと何センチ近付けば良いんだろう
僕は少し変わっていける気がする
辿り着いた時は君に
大丈夫だよ 僕が先に言うから
君が好きだ 終わらないこの想いが 届きますように
