Bruce and Joe Grushecky wrote this song together in 1997, although neither of them chose to record or perform it at the time.<\/p>\n<p>When Bruce and the E Street Band were wrapping up their Reunion Tour in June of 2000, Bruce start to premiere some brand new songs, telegraphing to fans that he wasn&#8217;t done releasing new music.

The song is essentially a scream of frustration by a lover feeling increasingly disconnected from his partner, trying desperately to bridge the widening gulf and scale the growing wall&#8211;but ultimately, he&#8217;s just as complicit.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><em>There&#8217;s a code of silence that we don&#8217;t dare speak<\/em><br \/>\n<em>There&#8217;s a wall between us and a river so deep<\/em><br \/>\n<em>And we keep pretending that there&#8217;s nothing wrong<\/em><br \/>\n<em>Man, there&#8217;s a code of silence and it can&#8217;t go on<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><em>Well, s the truth so elusive, so elusive you see<\/em><br \/>\n<em>That it ain&#8217;t enough, baby, to bridge the distance between you and me<\/em><br \/>\n<em>There&#8217;s a list of grievance a hundred miles long<\/em><br \/>\n<em>There&#8217;s a code of silence and it can&#8217;t go on<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><em>Well you walk with your eyes open<\/em><br \/>\n<em>But your lips they remain sealed<\/em><br \/>\n<em>Beneath the promises we made are broken<\/em><br \/>\n<em>Someday the truth will be revealed<\/em><br \/>\n<em>Well I need to know now darlin&#8217;<\/em><br \/>\n<em>I need to know what&#8217;s going on<\/em><br \/>\n<em>So come on, come on, come on, come on<\/em><br \/>\n<em>Come on, come on, come on<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Nothing happens in &#8220;Code of Silence,&#8221; and nothing is resolved&#8211;the song is merely and powerfully a depiction of what it feels like to be caught and drowning in that &#8220;river so deep.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>In 2006, after the song won a Grammy, Bruce and Joe finally released a studio version of &#8220;Code of Silence&#8221; &#8212; but it was on one of Joe&#8217;s albums rather than one of Bruce&#8217;s.<\/p>\n<p>The arrangement is identical, the vocals are clearer, and the song is just as ferocious as ever.
