I believe this song is about someone with social anxiety, “It’s quiet and loud” could be referring to a person who seems quiet on the outside, but in the inside they are just wrapped in their own thoughts.
The person is battling themselves
The Sniper Lyrics
It's quiet and loud
No one hears it but us
Some starving and proud
No one chooses but us
You can hide up upstream
We will trap and scalp you
Change the colour of your skin
But sure as night we'll find you
Never meant to hurt no one
Only meant to move myself
Yeah, I try and I try
'til I'm red in the face
We decide what goes inside your head
You see yourself in me
How'd you do that? How'd you?
Beyond your towers wall
He waits on the killing call
And he tries and he tries
'til he's red in the face
We decide what goes inside your head
