Hello everyone!

I was reading the lyrics of a song and came acroos this sentence.
I know what each word means, what I don't understand is the meaning of the sentence..

"In all of the noise I am silence" - Does it mean that despite you, everything/everyone is being noisy? Tongue Tied [:S]

Thanks in advance!

¿Alguna vez has tenido un sueño tan real que al despertarte no sabías qué creer?

I am a centre of calmness  surrounded by noise.

It might be influenced by this

Breathe through the heats of our desire
Thy coolness and Thy balm;
Let sense be dumb, let flesh retire;
Speak through the earthquake, wind, and fire,
O still, small voice of calm!

Or by this: [link]
