Silhouette Lyrics

Stood at the cold face
Stood with our backs to the sun
I can remember being nothing but fearless and young
We've become echoes, but echoes, they fade away
We've fallen to the dark as we dive under the waves
(I heard you say)

The devil's on your shoulder
The strangers in your head
As if you don't remember
As if you can forget
It's only been a moment
It's only been a lifetime
But tonight you're a stranger
Some silhouette

Let's go out in flames so everyone knows who we are
'Cause these city walls never knew that we'd make it this far
We've become echoes, but echoes are fading away
So let's dance like two shadows, burning out a glory day

Devil's on your shoulder
Strangers in your head
As if you don't remember
As if you can forget
It's only been a moment
It's only been a lifetime
But tonight you're a stranger
Some silhouette

Just hold me
Just hold me
Just hold me
Just hold me

Devil's on your shoulder
Strangers in your head
As if you don't remember
As if you can forget
It's only been a moment
It's only been a lifetime
But tonight you're a stranger
Some silhouette

Only been a moment
It's only been a lifetime
But tonight you're a stranger
Some silhouette
But tonight you're a stranger
Some silhouette

What is the Meaning of Silhouette?

This hauntingly beautiful track explores the themes of change, memory, and loss. The lyrics suggest a relationship that has evolved over time, with one person struggling to recognize the other as they've grown and changed. The recurring phrase "devil's on your shoulder" hints at internal conflicts or guilt that may have caused this transformation. The song also touches upon the fleeting nature of time - 'it's only been a moment, it's only been a lifetime'. The reference to silhouettes suggests an ephemeral, shadowy presence that is hard to grasp or understand fully. This could be seen as a metaphor for the elusive nature of identity and memory in our lives. #Change #Memory #Loss
