LYRICS:
Searching for solace in a toxic temple;[01] fragments of lead climbing through your head;[02] stones load your coat as you wade through the winter current - dancing with the dead on the riverbed;[03] wanton hanging of the wise pale king.[04] And I see myself.[05]
Here we dream in a bed of seamless sleep. The rain never wakes you from your descent. Sinking through subtle waves that disguise the current down below. You’re pulled in the undertow.[06]
Intricate: I watched the world dance inside your head
Ephemeral: everything created must expire
Misery: Losing hope for a dying world, or did we lose hope in ourselves, my ineffable?
Words lose sound with every fathom, further down.
Torn between two worlds - floundering in a state of metaxis.[07] One is waning one is dead. In both we feel too much… we feel too much.
Intricate: I watched the world dance inside your head.
Ephemeral: Everything created must expire.
Misery: Losing hope for a dying world - or did we lose hope in ourselves, my ineffable?
Most nights we merge into one dream; you mouth that four word sundering - soundless, but somehow deafening, “I can’t go on.” I’ll strain my voice to make you relent, but the tide holds me in my dissent. We’re bound to each other in the undertow. You were my ineffable.[08]

Silent Planet has taught me, amongst many things, that music is so much more than just sound.
But.. Everything was sound.
Haha ;)
+Justin Dade I saw what you did there.
Legend.
Justin Dade well played good sir
damn, your guys puns are on fire today.
I shook Garrett's hands at Everything Was Sound Tour. You can say he has tiny hands compared to mine ;)
Anyone who struggles with depression can easily relate to these lyrics. Silent planet is not just music, but an outlet for all those who feel as if their pain goes unnoticed. When you read these lyrics, you realize you're not alone and someone understands the hell your mind is going through. Some days with depression, it just feels like it's gonna be your last day living. But no matter what you're going through, just try to keep living. Stay strong and keep fighting for your life. We can get through this. Love this band and everything it stands for so much.'
Needed to hear this. ❤️
That's why this album it's so relatable to me. This song makes me cry. So powerful.
Absolutely agree my guy.
This is one of the best albums ever written hands down.
Yup was definitely album of the year for me in 2016

Besides Fit for a King, *literally* the only bands worth seeing

Not many bands at all in the music industry do these kind of videos with such inspiring and important lyrical content behind them. Whatever genre it is it's music and it deserves so much more fucking recognition!
Silent Planet is one of those bands that probably won't ever get the recognition they deserve, but people will still be talking about them in a hundred years.
I'm a simple man:
I see Silent Planet, I click like.
Christopher Wright saw this same comment on a fit for a king music video
Austin Musgrove Top 10 anime twists
Saw on A7X too
In that case, keep being simple, man! ;-) Silent Planet is amazing!
I had the pleasure of meeting the band 3 times, one time they came over to my girlfriends house and slept before a show, these guys are probably the most down to earth, loving and caring people I've ever met.
Don't you think it's kind of wierd ?
Damn, they're good.They should tour with Underoath.
John Hrabe they have a song with Spencer on it
any time I listen to these guys I always get that feels of the first time listening hype it's just that good
Mr.SpacePancakesDoesZombies I couldn't agree more. Could listen to an album of theirs on repeat and every time it's like the first time. Such an underrated mastery of music
Mr.SpacePancakesDoesZombies I still get the chills on certain parts
It's a goddamn shame how underrated they are
This isn't all about music for these guys. You can just tell. This is about something bigger.
Thank you SP.
Favorite song on the album...hits home..God bless anyone who watches this! Jesus saves!
I saw these dudes in a small coffee shop in New Mexico. They rocked it! I just remember thinking how in the world do those drums take abuse like that cause the drummer was hitting hard!
This songs is so beautiful; it has a way of turning some poignant and difficult past-times into a complex form of beauty that is quite empowering. God bless this whole band and thank you for writing songs that are very-well thought out and are on another echelon filled w/dense meaning. That lady's wandering expression fits perfectly and there's something very powerful about seeing that Egret fly and land in frame at that very moment.
Such a beautiful masterpiece of a video.
Krzi hey
Good music video. I met Garrett Russell at Facedown Fest. It was good to see him again. I hope I will see his band again at Warped Tour. It's going to be my first time going there. 🙂
AVJR It's great. just eat a good breakfast (something healthy) and bring cool water bottles along with some frozen ones. the frozen ones will melt while you're there. I hope you have a great time. God bless. c':
:D
Christian Gonzales I've been to warped tour a couple of times and never even thought of taking a frozen water bottle
My mom made me take a bunch of stuff. Lol.
Christian Gonzales well your mom is very smart to make you do that, all my mom tells me to do is make sure I don't die while I'm there
Oh my god.. this explains exactly how i feel at this moment, Silent Planet is not just music.. Its another world we go to when we need it xxoo
Thank you
I love how he screams all these things. It's very fitting, everyone needs to listen.
Silent Planet is simply one of the greatest band ever; I saw them live in Puerto Rico and it was honestly one of my greatest moments in my life and I've been to Coheed and Cambria, Korn, A7X, Lamb of God concert etc... I mean the humbleness from this band is just something you don't see too often even though they are like masters at making music and one of my favorite bands on top of that if people meet the members of the band they are sure to become even more of a fan but a friend /brother... understanding Love As Loss is my favorite song from the band and I still can't believe they made a video/masterpiece of it... couple of months ago I wrote them asking for a video of this song and I'm forever grateful! can't wait to see them again in Puerto Rico!!! keep doing the greatest music there is and only the best wishes for Garrett and every member of SP
Jonathan Rodriguez idk how I fucking missed that show...
whoever disliked never got their lemonade
Zachary Perez best comment EU hahaha. depths is omnipresent
OMG I JUST HAD LEMONADE
"I would bring you, LEMONADE" -Depths II
I hate the phrase, "This band saved my life." But I will say, this band helped me through the darkest days of my life. I'm still going through it. That's why I'm here. This is more than music. Garrett, Thomas, Mitch, Alex, you guys have touched my life in a way I can never express or repay. Just grateful to exist in a time when Silent Planet exists.
Saw this band in at Atlanta masquerade and saw that their coming back I have to see them I swear my favorite band
Taylor Walters same!
As someone who was recently diagnosed with bipolar 1 and has attempted suicide a few times, this song just…wow. It grabs me on a level unprecedented by music. The feeling and raw emotions in the fabric of this song is just beautiful. I’m sure it’s very difficult to perform live. Kudos to them for being so brave to be vulnerable.
This is what i admire of Silent Planet. All of their songs are intricately written and very poetic.
Man, the scene where she's trying to crawl out of the hole but keeps slipping and the water is rushing down hits me every time. I've felt like that so much.
This is music at its very peak. Thank you Silent Planet!
Beautiful.
Silent Planet please never stop making music.God bless you guys.
the song started, I thought they sounded more hardcore than ever, then the melody started and I realize it's the same ol' good silent Planet I love
How come this doesn't have 10 million views!
God bless this band, not only do they write some amazing riffs.
These are the best lyrics you can probably read from any modern day band.
Silent Planet has a very powerful message and its one that I feel anyone can get behind.
Jesus, I am late to the party ... I’ve been binging their vids, and I swear to god there isn’t one that hasn’t given me chills
This has to be my favourite song of all time. I heard it for the first time at the perfect time in my life to hear it and basically Silent Planet is the best
Thank you silent planet I saw you guys for the first time at warp tour in MA an you guys played panic room an when you gave a shout out to the military I screamed thank you Serously thanks for that song as a vet with ptsd who almost took his life thank you. Even tho I sought help my minds still a mess my marriage is suffering but your music does help. Love you guys
My favorite band! In awe over the lyrical content and music
Those last two sentences still give me chills. I've been through depression, and my faith is what kept me going. Now that I'm married to my best friend and love of my life, it crushes me to even think about what this would be like. It's something I never seriously thought about during my darkest times - what would this mean to the people I love who love me? It's a devastating thought.
If there's anyone out there going through it, understand that you're loved. Think of who you love, and put yourself in their shoes. You might come to understand how important you really are. My rise from depression happened so unexpectedly, so don't ever think this is it for you. Things can definitely get better. You just have take one small step at a time to gain momentum.
So good!! Every music video and Album seems to top it's self. Incredible Band!!
one of the most amazing songs ever...I get chills every time
It has been an incredibly long time since I've seen and heard such potent lyrical prowess. I'm completely blown away by this group.
in my opinion silent planet it's going to be one of the greatest bands of the metalcore history
This band is just too good. The heart they put into every song, the feels, the brilliant lyrics... Damn.
I love how he says the word Ineffable!!!! That statement is so true and so real!!!
I love Silent Planet. Met Garrett, he is the nicest guy!!!
I'm getting the ink blot of this song on my body!

This band can do no wrong. Incredible lyrics, gripping and powerful instruments, emotional and amazing vocals, and they are fantastic human beings. Some of the nicest guys ive ever met. This song is one of my favorites off of a flawless album.
"Trade your certainty for awe."
I have to say I recently met garret Russel and he is one of the most amazing and intelligent people I've ever met. What a beautiful human being. His spirit was so radiant and his aura literally brightened my day. I hope silent planet continues to do what they do for a long time. This is so much more than great music... they are touching people's lives and shining a light in our world. Amazing band

When things get this bad the last thing you do is reach out for help from a stranger when everyone who you cared for has failed you. The system has failed you. I only listen to this when I'm close to ending everything.
Me encanta esta banda de lo mejor que he descubierto en los últimos años
