Starsailor - Silence Is Easy

Artist: Starsailor

Song: Silence Is Easy

Album: Silence Is Easy

Year: 2003

"Everybody says that I'm looking for a home now, looking for a boy or I'm looking for a girl now,  I can still let it go, I can still learn to grow into a child again..."

"Silence is easy, it just becomes me, you don't even know me, why lie about me... Silence is easy, it just becomes me, you don't even know me, why do you hate me..."

*A COMMENT: I read that this song might be about shyness, it makes sense, and since I'm a very shy guy I can relate to it in a very clear way... Let's see, in the quotes above, the concept of home, it means to me a place where you feel at ease, where you feel protected, but outside, you look for someone (a boy or a girl) who you feel comfortable with. The 'grow into a child again' part hits the nail right in the head for me, as a child I remember being shameless and mischievous, I was outgoing as can be but somehow that changed...

Now the chorus, being shy and quiet could lead to misconceptions, which often happen to me. People tend to think you are a boring guy or even a jerk, as they think you don't like them or you don't speak to them because you are rude or something, but the truth is that, in general, it is just shyness and for a shy guy silence it is always easy, it overcomes you.

If you take a look to the rest of the lyrics you can see it fits the concept of shyness too, the shelter, the liberation, and stuff...
