Smile Empty Soul - Silhouettes Lyrics

still just as good in 2020 as it was in 2003

when I was 16 it was great, now I am 28 these are fantastic emotions

Please tour to asia especially malaysia! Been a fan for quite some time already 🙏🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

Saw S.E.S. in 2004 in Troy, NY with RA Revis and Stereogram on the Budweiser True Music Tour. My friend at the time knew someone from our local rock station (94.9 K-rock Utica NY) and got us in as media. We spent the night backstage with the bands and they were all more than awesome to us. In fact I'm most definitely the only person in the world to have a photo of all four of the bands on stage with their pants around their ankles lol. They all mooned us in a picture after the show. I'll never forget that night. I felt like a rockstar. 17 years old they were buying us beers all night and I was getting hit on by college chicks because I had to be important to be hanging with the bands right? lolol. I miss those days.

who listens in 2020?

Going to see them next Thursday here in Joplin, Missouri super pumped!

First time I heard this song was almost 18 years ago. I remember that day like it was yesterday. I had just turned 14. One of my closest friends introduced me to this band with this song. Every time I hear it now, it makes me think of her. I absolutely love this song

2020 bitches!!

Great song. Brings back so many memories for me! Will always be a great song; and of course, a great band!! \m/

This sounds different from the spotify version...definitely better

This version is from the 2003 debut album. It can't be found in any music streaming service unfortunately.

Amazing voice wow

Literally how I feel

Came out when I was 15 now 30 still one of my favorite songs

Anyone know why it sounds different on Apple Music? Sucks.

Ow Hell No

The perfect song for Yuno gasai

I'm gonna James this song for my kids from now on!!! /W\`BOOMER SOONER!!!

God that last chorus always sends chills down my spine

You can feel the emotion he conveys

Who’s still listening to this in 2019?

Yup... November 2019 and I'm still obsessed with SES. I remember when they came out jamming to them in my mustang, being that depressed rocker girl, bahah.

Man this song is awesome. Got me through some tough times in my life.

Joesph gorden Hewitt is that kid with the chains on his wrist there

One day, I'll finally have it all figured out. And when I do I'll always remember this song that I loved my life through.

2019 anyone??

You know it...

he wants to stand on his own i can dig it

SES has always been my favorite band since they first came out. My mindset and personality is just like em

I just have to hear something this over and over again just to feel like i did as a teenager and baggy pants are the are the sh!t 2000s grunge and when people was kool

I was raised in a very strict Christian church, some people who have left say it’s a cult, idk.... but I was forced to go. I left church and abandoned religion as soon as I turned 18. For years, this song has meant so so much to me. Thank you, SES, for this beautiful and well written masterpiece.

This song is so true i cant even descripe it love it!

Waw..its a alternative post grunge late 90s and early 2000s.. please be famous anymore about this genre..😢😢

SES has been a huge inspiration to my current current band, if you're a fan of them you may like us too.

The beginning kinda sounds like far away from nickelback xD

He looks like Aphex Twin lol

😂😂 I remember this dude I had a crush on mentioned this song and so I had to download it onto my iPod😂 ahh, high school, good times

2019 still one of the best songs EVER #SES

Those god damn jnco jeans lol

i remember seeing the lead singer warmup to this song in dewey beach with trapt and finger 11 .. still soo good

"Sir, could you please stop singing at my son?"

I feel so old me and this dude are the same age and this was good stuff back in the day

Oooooh the amazing memories and the times music was THE BEST💙💙💙💙💙💙💙

DAMN MAN, THOSE EARLY 2000 FEELS!

Love type of this music

Silhouettes above the cradle hold me down
They won't let me go the wrong way
My mother taught me all the fables, told me how
In the end all the sinners have to pay
But
I don't want to live like my mother
I don't want to let fear rule my life
And I don't want to live like my father
I don't want to give up before I die
He worked so hard his bones are breaking
He wore them down but long ago he lost the feeling
His good intentions leave me shaking, show me how
I don't ever want to end up like he did
And
I don't want to live like my mother
I don't want to let fear rule my life
And I don't want to live like my father
I don't want to give up before I die
When I have kids
I won't put any chains on their wrists, I won't
I'll tell them this
There's nothing in this world that you can't be if you want it enough
I don't want to live like my mother
I don't want to let fear rule my life
And I don't want to live like my father
I don't want to give up before I die
I don't want to live like my mother
I don't want to let fear rule my life
And I don't want to live like my father
I don't want to give up before I die
I don't want to live like my mother
I don't want to let fear rule my life
And I don't want to live like my father
I don't want to give up before I die

DID HE JUST THROW THAT SCHECTER ??!!!!
I hope someone was catching it... didn't look like it.
He probably has many of them...

Am I the only one still here? 😳

still jamming to this in 2019

Got to see them live a few weeks ago couldn’t believe it met them got a pick humble dudes

Very much humble. Sat by them at a bar in moorhead, mn a few years back. His paintings are great as well.

2019...anyone?

- > this song makes me who i am . . .

This song is rather shit tbh. Especially the "I won't put any chains in their wrists" talking about kids. Good luck. Your kids are going to be fucking horrible little shits.

I feel like this band came too early. Among today's youth it would have done so much better!

lmao no, trust me, "Today's youth" all like music about guns, drugs, money, murder, and stupid superficial stuff

Guitar riff reminds me of Pearl Jams "I'm Going Hungry" just sped up some!!
Still both songs are good:)

This song deserves so much more recognition, and respect. It’s unbelievably relatable and real.

2019 anyone? I just saw them in Ohio for inkarceration with Seether, five finger, Shinedown, starset, I prevail, and other great bands. They are the underated bands that sound spot on live

Silverchair, Bush, Puddle of mudd

We loved seeing them in concert then in April this year 2 weeks after we saw them my husband suffered a massive stroke this is the last song he ever heard that he remembered ! We also got pics with them too they were so nice wish we could see them again

see them recently on their last tour and always impressed as hell and my friend filled in for bass

I love their guitar effect

It made too much sense back then.

This song ❤️😥

"Worked so hard his bones are breaking..." my dad did that for me. Got to provide.

If they don't like the track than fuck them

My fav song from them, resonates so much. Such a slept on band.

I remember when I came back from Iraq they bought me quite a few drinks at local strip club they were really amazing people

2019 anyone?

Scorn VS wrath.... Scorn IS more natural and sometimes cant help when you feel it inside but remember You love and dont really when and calm and YOU think about Real not hurting LOVE. Human tendencies dont always suck. Pink decribed masterbation as Veautiful. Sorry Gracia L Drake.house

Really the bands from the 90s and 2000s have so much passion and emotion in them they just make you wana live better and be a better person what happened to that I'm a better nicer person due to this music willing to give my shirt off my back to help someone while kids today with the modern music are greedy ungrateful brats that would kick you when your down just to get a laugh just shows you really how powerful music is

They need to visit a Barber and a psychologist

Damn, I can't wait to see you at Inkcarceration 2019!

You Have to Love generations and the Planet 2 Love this------Sometimes pain.

Words and Food for Thought.----Love these Guys.

Saw these guys back in March. Excellent show!

Great music.....

Damn mtv and vh1 days!!! Whose with me ???

Have a great mom & dad, this song still makes me tear up

I don't wanna live like my father!

STILL AN FUCKING BADASS SONG OMG LOVE IT............

April 2019🤘♥️

This is the song i dedicate to my parents

The original will always be better than shapeshifter.

💖💕💖💕💖💕💖💕💖💕💖💕 ID GIVE ANYTHING TO SEE YOU GUYS!!!! Im like 10mins frm santa clarita. 🤗

Raven from wcw ? lol jk what a powerfull song

We've been raised by a generation of mothers that have been marked by fear and generation of fathers that have been taught to suppress their dreams. And we are the lucky ones

Awesome song.

Been jamming this since the beginning. Singing along was therapeutic for me. The emotions, the vocals, the brief screams, that's my shit. I love this song today as much as I did back in 03! On iheartradio I have a smile empty soul station just to get through the work day. 🤘

NANIMO, NANIM... oh wait wrong video
