In an interview with SYN Media, Sophie revealed that “Silver” was borne out of a time of heartbreak. However in another interview with Partisan Records Sophie explained that:
“Silver” isn’t a sad song – it’s pretty, complex and filled with joy… That song comes from a very specific moment when I fir...
I realised that life goes fast
Oo I didn't ask you to take the other half
I see it doesn’t faze you when hands are red hot sun
The pain is inflicted on somebody else's one
Yeah in my mind I saw it coming
But your clothes still fall away
Everyone you know is turnin' silver
I watched you watch them disappear, yeah
Everyone you know is turnin’ silver
I watched you watch them disappear, yeah
Fill the glass it's all the same
The other flashing of the picture that we made
Lights to arrange-s
You blue hand same blue eyes
Oh sometimes someone doesn't like a surprise
Yeah, yeah in my mind I saw it comin'
But your glow's still so warm
You're a stranger in my head
Now you've locked the door
Everyone you know is turning silver
I watched you watch them disappear
Everyone you know is turnin' silver
I watched you watch them, disappear, yeah
Everyone you know is turnin’ silver
I watched you watch them disappear, yeah
Everyone you know is turning silver
I watched you watch them disappear
