The Silence Is Deafening - Single

by Exiled Hope

supported by

Anthony Fox The first half of the track builds up well with the symphonic keys, guitar and haunting vocals. As it went on, it brings in some heavy almost doomy guitar. The last section is a really effective blackened outro. It is a next step in Exiled Hope’s progression - everything on this track sounds really good and is a little more extreme. Hope they continue in this direction.

	From snowfall on rolling hills To the howling winds of summer breeze Seasons pass, but only your silent footsteps remain (Chorus) We fell in love beneath the lights of the labyrinth Two lost souls finding our way Then you said goodbye with no remorse You abandoned me for the last time I listen to the echoes of broken lives chipped away The dreamer is gone but his lies live in me (Chorus) You could have stood your ground You could have fought for us But you fell to your knees You died as you lived In deafening silence The silence is deafening

about

This song is for anyone who feels like they’re giving more to someone else than they’re receiving. You’re trying your best, but the other side seems to be giving up without telling you why. In the album, the protagonist’s lover feels like he’s growing distant from her without cause. He’s alienating everyone and isolating himself in his efforts to understand the nature of the creature he’s becoming. He hates what he sees in the world now that he understands the evil that befell it after Hope was sacrificed (referring to the events of Exiled Hope), and he hates what he sees in himself and everyone around him. His lover doesn’t see that, however; she only sees him growing distant and self-absorbed. If only he would tell her… but then again, who would believe him?
