2. It Rains In My Heart

   Buy track Lyrics

   It rains in my heart
   As it rains on the town,
   What languor so dark
   That soaks to my heart?

   Il pleure dans mon coeur
   Comme il pleut sur la ville.
   Quelle est cette langueur
   Qui pénêtre mon coeur ?

   Oh sweet sound of the rain
   On the earth and the roofs!
   For the dull heart again,
   Oh the song of the rain!

   It rains for no reason
   In this heart lacking heart.
   What? And no treason?
   It’s grief without reason.

   By far the worst pain,
   Without hatred, or love,
   Yet no way to explain
   Why my heart feels such pain!

   C’est bien la pire peine
   De ne savoir pourquoi,
   Sans amour et sans haine,
   Mon coeur a tant de peine.

3. Silent Chamber, Noisy Heart

   Buy track Lyrics

   The world outside is laid to rest
   Overtaken by darkness
   Loneliness protrudes within
   The sonnet soon to begin

   Silent chamber
   Noisy heart
   Pondering never to depart
   Silent chamber
   Noisy heart
   Breaking apart

   Drudgery of the mind
   Answers firmly enshrined
   Severely oppressed
   Emotionally possessed

   Silent chamber
   Noisy heart
   Pondering never to depart
   Silent chamber
   Noisy heart
   Breaking apart

   As the days go into the thousands
   The relentlessness grows
   A longing with nothing to long for
   Oblivious to what the future brings

   Caught in a state of lethargy
   Days go by outside the window
   But inside, things are standing still
   Everyday life has stagnated

   Come save me out of this
   Save me from myself
   On the verge of breaking down
   My mind is keeping me imprisoned

   On hold, waiting, pacing the floor
   A dull ache inhabits my core
   If I just knew what to do
   Time wouldn’t be wasted like this

   Caught in a state of lethargy
   Days go by outside the window
   But inside, things are standing still
   Everything has come to a stop

   Can’t go to sleep
   There’s something that’s missing
   Something I haven’t accomplished
   And when I wake, it might be too late
   Please, don’t tell me it’s too late

   Come save me out of this
   Save me from myself
   On the verge of breaking down
   My mind is keeping me imprisoned

   Come save me out of this
   Save me from myself
   This can’t go on any longer
   My mind is keeping my imprisoned

   Buy track Lyrics

   Pandemonium of the mind
   Faint memories of a distant time
   Incessant reveries, lost within
   Hidden treasures, enclosed therein

   Bien Loin D’ici

   Seemingly present, truthfully absent
   Failing to connect, with the world beyond
   Pertaining to a place that no longer prevails
   Dreaming of lost faerietales

   Bien Loin D’ici

   Bien Loin D’ici

6. The Biggest Loss of All

   Buy track Lyrics

   The biggest loss of all
   Is what dies inside of you
   While you live
   During a lifetime
   Pieces of you
   Fall to dust

   No changes are to be made
   The damage is already inflicted

   Dreams slowly fading away
   With time they wither, decay
   Like the autumn leaves
   At the doorstep of winter

   Other obstacles seem so trivial
   Faced with the light within
   Perishing
   As the decades pass
   You realize what
   You’ve lost

   These chains will not break
   Your self so very restricted

   The biggest loss of all
   Is what dies inside of you
   While you live
   The childish sparkle
   Succumbs with age
   Such a shame

   Dreams slowly fading away
   With time they wither, decay
   Like the autumn leaves
   At the doorstep of winter

   There is no way to be saved
   Your soul was already convicted

7. Dysphoria

   Buy track Lyrics

   The feeling of despair
   Drenched the light within
   Struggling to stay afloat
   Nostalgic for places remote

   In a state of dysphoria
   Reaching out to the abyss
   Drifting further away
   From a life in happiness
   Sorrow placing a kiss
   Upon my brow
   Dancing on the edge
   Of lunacy now

   Profound solitude
   No one fully follows
   Misplaced, alone
   Extraneous, forlorn

   In a state of dysphoria
   Reaching out to the abyss
   Drifting further away
   From a life in happiness
   Sorrow placing a kiss
   Upon my brow
   Dancing on the edge
   Of lunacy now

9. I Drink In Every Sob Like Wine

   Buy track Lyrics

   Oh sweet misery
   Won’t you come sit next to me
   Please, say that you will stay
   Without you, I’ll be led astray

   I drink in every sob like wine
   Sorrow intoxicating this heart of mine

   The greater the grief and pain
   The more I seem to gain
   Therefore I await the rain
   Without inhibitions once again

   I drink in every sob like wine
   Sorrow intoxicating this heart of mine

10. A Laugh In a Sea of Sorrow

    Buy track Lyrics

    Troubles weigh you down
    But still you put on a smile
    Try your best to keep things right
    But know that your heart won’t be satisfied

    You hide behind a mask
    You made out of fear for them
    But it won’t take long
    Before it breaks, fractured, shattered

    Troubles weigh you down
    But still you put on a smile
    Try your best to keep things right
    But know that your heart won’t be satisfied

    Don’t close your eyes and drown in pain
    Open them up, let the light in
    Even though the outcome looks dark
    Embrace life, fill it with elation

    One day
    Things will be different for you
    Things will change
    Life isn’t fair
    You haven’t had much luck
    But thru grief comes bliss

    Troubles weigh you down
    But still you put on a smile
    Troubles way you down
    But still you put on a smile
    Don’t give up, continue the fight
    And know that your heart will be satisfied

Album Description

This is the debut album of Sylvaine, released on the 14th of November 2014.

“…For a debut album, Silent Chamber, Noisy Heart is more than worthy your time, if you are a fan of post-genres, shoegaze and atmospheric music. Sylvaine’s vocal work surely brings a whole new level of strength to the album, as she really knows how to emotionally express herself through her vocal chords. Silent Chamber, Noisy Heart is autumnal: imagine when the Sun’s last rays enlighten the day you can enjoy the vivid colours of the nature; red, brown, yellow and orange, filling you with energy and felicity. But when the night falls and a cold embrace of nature overflows the world, the frosting, sombre takes its throne and rules the world and evokes your  most abstruse and stygian emotions…” – Ines, Terra Relicta (SL)

“… There are many well defined influences, but there is still a truly unique and unified sound to emerge from Sylvaine. Her talents are plenty and they are greatly showcased in this release…” – Dark Emperor, Infernal Masquerade Webzine (US)

“…This debut album has all the qualities of the young artist who works on several fronts, as poly instrumentalist, songwriter, performer, taking care of every aspect of Silent Chamber, Noisy Heart, a jewel, refined, which materialize and dissolves the very sound images full of pathos . Among the most fascinating passages, is without a doubt the title track that drags the listener immediately in to the magical world of Sylvaine. Still torn between sadness and happiness, this album will be able to accompany you and let you slip slowly in the cold winter, warming the soul…”– Federica Sarra, Sector Noir (IT)

“…Its really an album that makes you “feel” all over, your emotions come out putting you at various stages from feeling calm, to happy, excited, sad, its like a repeating cycle that has you really listening to the music with each note played.” – Natalie, Nataliez World (US)
