Manchester Orchestra - The Silence (Official Music Video)

Your reactions to this song and video have blown our minds. There is no better feeling than when music connects to strangers and we can share it together. We love you all. Stay tuned - MO

The coherence of instruments after he sings that first "reflection" is so powerful that I feel a magical adrenaline rush through my body, and I experience that every time again hearing this song❤

There is a song produced by john kay, from the forgotten songs and unsung hero's album, to be alive. It is the greates song of hope i have ever heard.

Get over it! Your self pitying is annoying and pretentious.

Seeing these guys live was the best show I've been to. Can never get enough of MO.

Why am I sometimes treated like the trash can man in public? I’ve been denied at homeless shelters. I’m clearly not a science experiment. What happened to my room and Board at the University of Alabama. I sang and danced for them. What gives Jack Hickey Attorney at law! Am I supposed to be displaced forever or shall I quietly find some tribal lands where people no longer see me as a torture victim.

- Lyrics -

Why do I deserve the science
To feel better about you?
At a loss I lost my cool
I denied that I found you

I tried to be a basket case
I did not surprise you
I'm trying to find a signal fire
Let me know when I should move

But you, amplified in the silence
Justified in the way you make me bruise

Magnified in the science
Anatomically proved that you don't need me

Why do I desire the space?
I was mourning after you
I was lost and lost my shape
There was nothing I could do

I don't want to waste away
It was all I gave to you
Take me back and take my place
I will rise right up for you

But you, amplified in the silence
Justified in the way you make me bruise

Magnified in the science
Anatomically proved that you don't need me

All the while you waste away, you're asking
"Did I really need another one to take me down?"
Everybody knows it's something that you had to live with darling
Nobody's gonna tear you down now
There is nothing you keep, there is only your reflection

There was nothing but quiet retractions
And families pleading, "Don't look in that cabinet
There's far more bad than there's good, I don't know how it got there"
That was something your father had burned in me
20 hours out of Homestake eternity
You can go anywhere but you are where you came from

Little girl, you are cursed by my ancestry
There is nothing but darkness and agony
I can not only see, but you stopped me from blinking
Let me watch you as close as a memory
Let me hold you above all the misery
Let me open my eyes and be glad that I got here

Love, Light and Blessings from Eskdale, New Zealand. I spent 30 years doing what I loved. lol, DJing. Very rarely doof door doof doofed...... Playing party music. Yet, I was really into Grunge, Bob Mould, Dinosaur Jr. Swervedriver. What a name. Excellent too. So I became a DJ, playing the Grease Megamix to Tool. So much fun. Destroyed my hearing, and I don't care, I'd do it all over again, exactly the same way. Just get through, be authentic. Never be afraid to be you. I Love the way you guys think. I wish I'd had your music 20 years ago, but.
I wouldn't be enjoying it as much as I am today. Thank you, thank you so much.

Namasté

En gros ça veut dire quoi

Now that I'm very closely listening to this song, I'm seeing SO MUCH IN IT. I CAN BREAK THIS WHOLE SONG DOWN, BIBLICALLY.
.............Later. It's not time yet.

Crank this up,.....LOUD!! BIG SPEAKER'S. AND TELL ME.....DO YOU FEEL SOMETHING????

Time to worship.....😥🙌

The best musical art that Ive heard in a very long time. Like "Mazzy Star" meets "Roger Waters" , "REM" and"Placebo". I'm hooked...Thank You. Rock on fellas...rock on .,...

Thank you, Manchester Orchestra, for the most beautiful song I've ever felt ("heard" isn't strong enough for the way I--and obviously many others--experience this music). Your talent is astounding.

Wow....... another one that reminds about GOD. This is WORSHIP. I'm not even looking for this stuff.
..........coincidence?

🖤

For Pete n Rick our son trae

This song hits on so many levels .. musically it wraps you in a blanket and then the lyrics just hit you right in the soul. Fantastic song and forever will be part of my top 100 songs of all time ❤️ thank you for this gift. 🙏🏻

Il silenzio degli innocenti..o agnelli...or whatever

❤

Magnifique ✨🫶🏻

I would be lost in this crazy world if there was no music. Thank you

Music is what keeps me going everyday.

To me the same. This song helps it slows everything down. Thank you for this song

OMG.... just found this song and fuck!
ITS AMAZINGLY BEAUTIFUL 😍😍😍

I'm not talking about the song,, His check 1..2 is so wholesome

This song is about me, he cursed me when I broke up with him. My life was hell! I lost my family in a horrible way. Love the woman hanging in the background.

It might sound a little strange but that song feels like it was meant to be a message to me from my lost tribe in a different dimension or something. My soul remembers what you are talking about on a deeper level than most can understand! I know it sounds weird huh?😢❤❤

Takes a hot minute to get started, but well worth the wait, That's some good sound you guys got going there.

😢❤🙏

Goosebumps ❤
