  • Here I am, a year later, what a year it's been.

  • It was December 4th, 2010. I had just moved out of my mothers house after an argument, I went to stay with my father. Christmas day rolled on so very quickly, the snow was still visible outside. In the morning, we went to see some family, I didn't like it one bit then. After sitting there for an hour, my father took me home, I sat there on my own, listened to this song and my whole mind changed. Thank you Anathema.

  • its always the shortest songs like these that have the deepest meanings. truly out of this world how anathema can pinpoint and bring out ones innermost feelings in a mere 3 minutes...One of their absolute bests

  • When the silence beckons

    And the day draws to a close

    When the light of your life sighs

    And love dies in your eyes

    Only then will I realize

    What you mean to me

  • I'm listening to Anathema since "Crestfallen", masterpiece after masterpiece. Great band, great music, great moments...

  • 9 People like mainstream Pop music.

  • Beautiful, just beautiful

  • Heard this song so much about ten years ago. Over and over. Now on this quiet lonely eve I once again am listening to the same song. This is art at its very finest - it still goes all the way in....

  • Pwnage. Legend.

    Now that Pink Floyd are long since gone, Anathema are THE best band on Earth.

    Just incredible.

  • In the silence i imagine ur voice, the voice ive never really heard talking to me.

    The day comes to an end and im left alone again.

    I wish there were no moments for you in life to sigh for.

    There is no love to die, at least there isnt any unconditional love..

    But i thank God for realising what you mean to me although i dont have the strength to admit it to you..to myself..

  • Joder con los Anathema solo escucharlos entran ganas de autolesionarte y cortarte las venas

  • HARD DISK IS WORK NORM...

  • When the silence beckons,

    and the day draws to a close.

    When the light of your life (sighs)

    and love dies in your eyes.

    Only then will I realize,

    what you mean to me.

  • made me realise ive never experienced love

  • @606revo its never too late :)

  • By the way, what happened to my once favored Heroes? Seven years without any new stuff (left aside Hindsight) might be considered as a rather long creative pause.......

  • @Chaploqur New album 31st of may :)

  • @LeadGRuaidri

    Yes, yes, yes!! I can't wait anymore! Where is my time machine?

  • Wonderful song, beautiful lyrics.... why do we always have to wait for an end to realize our deepest feelings??

    tnx Anathema! hope to see you again...

  • @d00mster we don't necessarily wait for the end to realise our deepest feelings...it's just that 'the end' is a punishment that makes us realise our feelings whether or not we want to.

  • @d00mster why do we? because we're worthless pigs.

  • This is a masterpiece.

  • @mirzarayhan No this is just what real music is ;) MAGIC

  • great song, the acoustic version is nice too.

  • really touching lyrics..

    for ppl who have lost someone they loved

    expression is wat matters,,,

  • Its bout losing someone u love deeply... was written after their mother passed away...

  • hermoso video

  • read or not

    believe or not

    u do should not realize something when it is too late

    if u feel it then why do u wait for silence

    DO I HAVE TO GO FOR U 2 LOVE ME?

  • Only now I realized what u mean to me...

  • My favorite song of them, a simple but very nice melody like also some live versions of it, thanks

  • @Totennebel

    No, helps bring order to emotional chaos.

  • I love this song

  • Well thats the point mate.You can never realise the power that a loved one has on you.You can feel it only when you sleep alone at night,when you cry without a shoulder to lean your head on.Even the most common thing he/she did will be missed.

  • inner silence... when love departs again...

  • Comment removed

  • how does this remind you of nice things? he is saying that the only thing that will make him realize how much he loves her, is her getting to the point of leaving him. how is that nice?

  • that's actually the nice part...

  • Well what I find nice about the song is that I would rather lose something and feel how special it was than having it and never really realising it. Oh, btw, maybe next time you can realise it while still having it

  • awesome song! but it is soo short :(

  • Quando o silêncio acenar ,

    E o dia se arrastar a chegar ,

    Quando a luz da sua vida suspirar ,

    E o amor morrer em seus olhos ,

    Somente então eu irei perceber ,

    O que tu significas pra mim.

  • silence is the most loved sound in the world brings ups all memories

  • Whenever i listen to this song i remember my cousin who died suddenly 4 months ago at the age of 33....God bless his soul....It makes me cry a lot

  • Beautiful song. Simple words, sung perfectly. Reminds me of when my boyfriend died. The petering out of the heart beat at the end is very poignant.

  • This song is devoted to my lost Love Merideth S. I F*ck*ed up really bad. Thought I would share that

  • ideal song!

  • beautiful song

  • hep böyle devam ;)

  • Anathema are the best metal band ever i love anathema :)

  • When he whispers "sighs" it is so beautiful...you can see all the emotion he is putting into that song

    Anathema for life

  • i love this music. Is the best, so sad and melancholy.

  • u.u bello tema ^^

  • best anathema song. period.

  • Damn awesome song is too short.

  • I bought this album the day it came out. i remember hearing this song and instantly loving it the most. "Feel" and "regret" are also great from this album. I love the echo on the lead guitar at the end. AWESOME melody

  • One of the songs that seems perfect and not enough at the same time, a beautiful reverberation of a lonely teardrop falling in a still ocean of solitude, giving birth to a motion that will linger unseen into the farthest depths of memory... sorry, didn't make much sense... i just love this song, goes great with the immage too

  • Wish it was longer its a great song

  • This is life!!!! Great moments are always short, and this song was meant to be short just like those moments :(

  • Silencio Interior (INNER SILENCE)

    Cuando el silencio llama,

    y el día delinee a un atardecer

    Cuando la luz de tu vida suspire

    y el amor muera en tus ojos

    Solo entonces me daré cuenta

    lo que significas para mí

  • Makes me cry...

  • Only then will I realise,

    What you mean to me...
