Lyrics: Sublime & Silence You dance around me And I forget I think of you, Of your burning mouth When you smile Emptiness would have been enough Emptiness would have been enough Sublime & Silence Everything trembles around you And everything ends You think of me, Of our white intoxications I flee from Paris Emptiness would have been enough Emptiness would have been enough But I know you remain In the flowers I leave for you After the night Violence and promise It's everything you hate Death too Emptiness would have been enough Emptiness would have been enough I caress your absence The mountain and wandering And then the boredom The river resembles you At least in appearance Yet you flee Emptiness would have been enough Emptiness would have been enough But I know you remain In the flowers I leave for you After the night Violence and promise It's everything you hate Death too Emptiness would have been enough Emptiness would have been enough But I know you remain In the flowers I leave for you After the night Violence and promise It's everything you hate Death too But I know you remain But I know you remain. Julien Doré's song "Sublime & Silence" explores themes of love, loss, and longing. The song talks about two individuals dancing around each other, with one forgetting everything else and constantly thinking about the other person's enticing presence. Emptiness is emphasized as a feeling that could have been enough to escape the complexities of their relationship. The lyrics also delve into the idea of the other person being present even in their absence. The protagonist mentions leaving flowers for this person after the night, symbolizing a constant connection and remembrance. However, a conflicting aspect arises as the song mentions violence and promise being hated by this person, highlighting their aversion towards certain aspects of the relationship. Alongside their distaste for violence and promise, death is also mentioned as something that is detested. Despite the complexities and conflicts portrayed in the song, the protagonist remains aware that this person still lingers in their thoughts and presence, emphasizing their enduring impact. The repetition of the line "But I know you remain" suggests a persistent connection or longing for the other person, despite the difficulties they face. Overall, "Sublime & Silence" encapsulates a mix of emotions, including passion, pain, and a longing for a significant connection, despite the complications and aversions that surround it.
