Blackfield - My Gift Of Silence Lyrics

One of the perfect songs of all time

This reminds me of loving someone who's already taken.
"But I don't hear him call to you"
"Don't blame yourself"
"Don't hate yourself"

This song is awesome! But makes me cry my heart out. :/
My anxiety screams out loud...

Breathtaking

He did this 12 years ago. What a fucking crazy genius.
Wilson, thank you for keeping us alive.

imo wilson is the best weve got this is not meant as a insult its my honest opinion if i was younger i would be saying hes a prog god but its not new to me ive heard it all before but i do enjoy his music

Yuuuuppp

bare footed drug free genius

Narayanan Vishu I mean there’s a lot of geniuses that do drugs too, but you’re right it’s not a prerequisite

C'est très beau, comme les autres morceaux de l'album, les mélodies sont magnifiques
steven Wilson avec blackfield, permet à des oreilles un peu moins rock progressif de se laisser emmener
C'est chouette.

oh what a gorgeous yet sad song. Absolutely beautiful.

There are incredible, idk maybe 'emotional' memories in my head by hearing this song.
I've heard the whole album thousands of times but this song really is a masterpiece of sadness in my opinion. i think no one hears that song in the same way i do. same feelings for the song 'Some Day', 'Cloudy Now' and much more i guess ...
or can anyone relate?

I listened to this for, like, an hour last night and was bawling on the floor. I'm twenty-two. Wilson, I love you!!

what have we done to deserve Steven Wilson? What an unreal creative genius.

You mean, "blackfield" .
Steve isn't the only genius behind this.

This whole album was a masterpiece. Steve Wilson is merely a playback singer on this album. The real genius behind this music is Aviv Geffen, the Israeli guy in the troop. Get your facts straight!

@W A Wilson wrote this song

@ROY Wilson wrote My gift of silence, but I'm aware that lots of Blackfield music only earns credit to Wilson, which of course shouldn't be.

I'm 64 and it is a beautiful piece...another Wilson masterpiece

If I compiled all my crimes and my lies into amnesty
Would you come back to me?
The smile on my lips is a sign that I don't hear you leaving me
And I don't hear my own soul scream
I'll read your lips, watch your scarf play at your hips
And I know it's true
But I don't hear him call to you
Don't blame yourself
Don't change yourself
I just wanna be over you, see, if you'll love
Don't hate yourself
If I compiled all my crimes and my lies into amnesty
Would you come back to me?
The smile on my lips is a sign that I don't hear you leaving me
And I don't hear my own soul scream
Don't blame yourself
(don't blame yourself)
Don't change yourself
(don't change yourself)
I just wanna be over you, see, if you'll love
(don't hate yourself)
Don't hate yourself

My mom told me, this song had heard on stereo when i was made (exactly beetween the foreplay and the puncturing the condom my father wear)...
:-)
Anyway: its a good song :-)

The untold truth

Yes you compel me to free your Soul
Saying you good bye through phone was the pain
You said everything gonna be fine
But it's been already a decade
And still your loves and memories drives me crazy , yea crazy
And tears rolls down every month and years.
God bless you. ❤

love is not that easy to forget, right? hope you are doing okay.

Невероятно красивая песня, как же я её люблю.

Blackfield is my favourite Band when my melancholy soul feels sad and lonely. Take a look at my Playlist.

Smile on my lips is sign that I don't hear you living me

And Wilson again .

Only if I could say these words to love of my life

This song....

Steven Wilson talks to the soul

Yes, people were shocked to find that a twelve year old was listening to Yes and ELP, I didn’t find it strange at the time!, I was a weird little kid and still am!!!!!!!.........

Kate Murphy You might even be intelligent enough to love “Collective Soul”.

My 6 year old loves this track.   She has good taste.

If I compiled
All my crimes and my lies,
Into amnesty,
Would you come back to me,

The smile on my lips
Is a sign that I don't hear you leaving me,
And I don't hear my own soul scream,

I'll read your lips,
Watch your scarf play at your hips,
And I know it's true,
But I don't hear him call to you,

Don't blame yourself,
Don't change yourself,
I Just want to be,
Over you say you feel love,
Don't hate yourself,

If I compiled
All my crimes and my lies into amnesty,
Would you come back to me,

The smile on my lips
Is a sign that I don't hear you leaving me,
And I don't hear my own soul scream,

Don't blame yourself,
Don't change yourself,
I Just want to be,
Over you say you feel love,
Don't hate yourself.

Harshad you

I'm pretty sure its actually
"I just want to be, over you see, and feel numb"
Source: I've listened to this WAY too many times.

@Dave your source :DDDD

I also want some other people to give me their gift of silence and just shut the fuck up

Beautiful!!

#okyanusefe

Awesome

"I read your lips watch the scarf play at your hips and I know its true"

years that I've spent listening to this track and others
They shaped my being ... All love to you Steven

idk whats with this song but i can listen to it repeatedly and it doesnt get stale

what a great song and lyrics.Hat off to you Mr. Wilson!

This amazing track was uploaded on my birthday.

so sad.. and I liked

this song is something...that always takes me to a trans state....wilson is love man....:')

stunning song 😊

♥♥♥

Steven Wilson is the best!!!!

i do blame myself
just in case you wonder

+Proserpina Perfect! I'm not the only one...

@ardlukelviejo Well, it's not perfect at all.

Sorry, I have to work on my written sarcasm. I do know it's not perfect at all, but I feel fortunate of discovering Steven Wilson and his amazing songs.

+ardlukelviejo I do understand.

Well don’t, stop blaming yourself. Nothing worth it.

One of most painfull, sad, heart breaking but still beautiful Steven Wilson songs. I love this man.

Let's also give some credits to Aviv Geffen here, who writes most of the Blackfield songs

haken, i see youre a man of music :D

Manuel Much agreed

@Michael Heinze Steven was actually the one who wrote this particualr song! But yeah Aviv doesn't get nearly enough credit, I'd say 85% of Blackfield is written by Aviv!

I see 14 people watched this on opposite day.

+Blair Holmgren Must be sadists.

+Blair Holmgren *Opposite Day* in cyanide & happiness style!

lol, my curse of loudness

Σ'αγαπώ...

Buralarda birilerinin dolaştığını ve yorumlarda kendilerine benzeyen birilerini aradığını hissediyorum. Acı çeken ruhların sıkıştığı bedenlerle aynı kalabalıkta kaybolduğumu hissediyorum. Ve sen, evet evet sen; çırpınarak yardım dilenirken aydınlıktan bir elin sana uzatılmadığını hissediyorum. Buradayım. Buradayım işte!"Don't blame yourself, don't change yourself." Hepsi bundan ibaret.

"Don't hate yourself" kendimizden nefret etmeye zorlandığımız zamanlara ithafen

Çağlar Polat Kucak dolusu hüzünlerle.

ya bak şurdan siktir git. fking suicidal imbeciles.

simply looooove Steven!!!!

Don't blame yourself.
Don't change yourself.

C'est très beau, j'aime.

i usually listen to this song when i feel like weeping about my existence

Don't change yourself.

Exactly

ME TOO OMG

Me too. Good day to hang myself.

This song is wonderful

no words

amazing

beautiful song

I'm 25 and I think Steven Wilson is a brilliant musician.  I also like pointing out my age to strangers on the internet for some inane reason.

You 30 now

I'm 6 and i dont care how old are you

I'm 27 already. can't say much

I was 20 when I heard Blackfield, Porcupine Tree and Steven Wilson the first time, I thought I've discovered a genius. Now I'm 35 and I still think Steven Wilson is a genius.

I'm 23, Steven's exactly my Dad's Age

very nice song :)

these guys cut my mind open every time I hear them, brilliant music.

Very nice song :)

love this....sidi

This is probably one of the best pop songs written in the last 15-20 years! It's nice to know that there's still some "real" pop being made, instead of the brain dead crap that's played in the radio now-a-days! Thanks for the tunes Steven and Aviv....

HanzoLibre My opinion this is not pop music I call it great music.

HanzoLibre I would not call this pop music I never hear these great songs on the radio.
