SYML’s new single Carry No Thing continues the multi-platinum artist and producer’s journey toward his forthcoming album Nobody Lives Here (set for release on April 4th), delivering an elegy wrapped in dreamlike production.
Anchored by soft arpeggiated guitar and a steady, driving pulse, the song carries an urgent sense of motion, balancing stillness and movement.
Layers of celestial harmonies and sweeping instrumentation give the track a weightless intensity, building to a cinematic peak before settling into a hushed resolution.
A saxophone weaves through the arrangement, its melancholic timbre adding an unexpected warmth that complements the piano melody.
The lyrics, filled with apocalyptic imagery—levees breaking, sirens wailing, a sky swallowed by darkness—paint a world on the brink.
But instead of scrambling for survival, the song clings only to love, a sentiment mirrored in the instrumentation.
“Whether we run for the hills or submit, we only have the love for each other as the world burns around us,” SYML explains.
Reverb-soaked vocals hover just above the mix, intimate yet distant, like a voice carried by the wind across a vast, empty horizon.
The shifts in dynamics—gentle verses swelling into orchestral bursts—mirror the tension between acceptance and urgency.
Carry No Thing doesn’t push itself forward aggressively; instead, it pulls listeners in with its atmosphere, letting the weight of its message settle naturally.

SYML Carry No Thing Lyrics
Where do we go when the last one falls?
When the sky goes dark and the siren calls
And there ain’t no hope to be had at all
I will carry no thing but my love for you
I figure we got ’bout a hundred days
With the good supplies and the money we saved
But a time to move’s no time to waste
I will carry no thing but my love for you
There will always be a last day for me
When it calls my name, I will answer true
All the good and the bad, I will let it be
And I will carry no thing but my love for you
Where do we run when the levees burst
And an angry god has quenched his thirst?
A storm for the ages, hell on earth
I will carry no thing but my love for you
There will always be a last day for me
When it calls my name, I will answer true
All the good and the bad, I will let it be
And I will carry no thing but my love for you
All the good and the bad, I will let it be
And I will carry no thing but my love for you
Where do we go when the trumpets sound?
When the last day comes and it leaves no doubt
Like some lost gold, leave me underground
I will carry no thing but my love for you
I will carry no thing but my love for you
