Silent Theory

In a society where new bands pop up every day, Silent Theory is here to set a new standard. The band found success with their single, "Fragile Minds," released June 2016, charting at #97 for Media Base Active-Rock and #29 for Under the Radar charts. It has since surpassed 2 million video views on YouTube and continues to grow rapidly. Following this success in June 2018, through Loudwire, the band released their second single off of the album, Delusions, "Watch Me Burn." The single charted at #67 on the Media Base Active-Rock charts. Silent Theory is made up of brothers Mitch, Scott, and George Swanger, as well as Robert James and Dakota Elliot Tyler. They are currently located in Moscow, Idaho, but finding worldwide success. As of January 2019, they signed with Paul Crosby Management (founding member of Saliva), released their latest single, "Before The Storm," and are currently finishing a new album to be released later this year.

Verse:
I guess the way I feel is the way that I felt before
High tide, salt in my cut, these are things that I can’t ignore
But should I collapse in on myself like an iron core?
Don’t count me out just yet
Just yet…
I see a light on the horizon, this is do or die
The rope I grip is ripping off my skin but I won’t let it take my life
I know this is far more than I had bargained for
I’ve lost that spark again
But…

Chorus:
I’m going to keep lighting fires ‘til someone finds us
I’m sure it won’t be long now
I’m going to keep shaking cages ‘til bars unbind us
Only worry if there’s much of me left to bury

Verse:
I never let it set in and I really underestimated
All the decimated people living day to day
And then it hit me like a truck
I finally changed my limitations 
Trading mass assimilation for a better education
As ignorant and devastated 
Well below my station flawed in every single way
I hope I took my medication 
It’s upsetting I can see the overwhelming fascination
Armageddon’s not the one you want
But it’s the one you’re getting
So break!
This swell is stronger than it was before
I’m still afloat for now
Well…

Chorus:
I’m going to keep lighting fires ‘til someone finds us
I’m sure it won’t be long now
I’m going to keep shaking cages ‘til bars unbind us
Only worry if there’s much of me left to bury

Bridge:
Pull me in
The smoke is starting to fill my lungs
Drain me out
There’s nothing left of who I was

Chorus:
I’m going to keep lighting fires ‘til someone finds us
I’m sure it won’t be long now
(It can’t be long now)
And I’m going to keep shaking cages ‘til bars unbind us
Only worry if there’s much of me left to bury
