The Voice
Abernethy Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Oh, baby, wait and see
I had a dream once, too
There were feeling blackbirds meant for me
Yes, there are spies involved
Even with this talking to ourselves
Yesterday I drowned myself
Far from the view of the sun, my sister
.......
Blessed blue sky
Bless us all
Deep in her fire lies a grim authority
......
Yesterday I drowned myself
Next to a blonde with a dark repression
Yes, there are spies involved
Even with this talking to ourselves
Finally, I've got myself figured out
Finally, I've turned myself into the voice
First, the forest bloomed
With Heather's lips
Like puppy ears
Like candy
And the college grove
Was kissed with frost - Oh boy
When our skulls caved in
We said: "We want freedom"
When the savior comes
I will be open wide,
Open wide
..........
The lyrics to Abernethy's "The Voice" paint a mysterious picture of self-discovery, secrets, and the desire for freedom. The opening lines "Oh, baby, wait and see, I had a dream once, too" could be interpreted as the singer speaking to themselves, encouraging themselves to have faith that their own dreams and aspirations can come true. The reference to "feeling blackbirds meant for me" could be a metaphor for goals or aspirations that the singer is unsure of how to achieve. The line "I'd better stop, for the lake is listening" suggests that there is something secretive or personal about the singer's thoughts that they don't want to be heard by others.
The mention of "spies involved" could imply that there are people or forces that are working against the singer in their pursuit of their dreams. The refrain "yesterday I drowned myself" is repeated twice in the song, suggesting that the singer has struggled with feelings of despair or being overwhelmed. The line "deep in her fire lies a grim authority" could be a reference to a powerful force or person who the singer is trying to defy or overcome.
The closing lyrics paint a picture of resilience and determination: "First, the forest bloomed, with Heather's lips, like puppy ears, like candy. And the college grove was kissed with frost - Oh boy. When our skulls caved in, we said: 'We want freedom.' When the savior comes, I will be open wide, open wide." Here, the singer is describing a beautiful moment in nature, but also alluding to the idea of breaking through barriers to achieve freedom.

Oh, baby, wait and see
Just trust me and be patient
I had a dream once, too
I also had hopes and aspirations
There were feeling blackbirds meant for me
There were emotions and experiences that were meant for me
I'd better stop, for the lake is listening
I need to stop talking because someone might be listening
Yes, there are spies involved
There are people watching and listening to us
Even with this talking to ourselves
Even when we are just talking to ourselves out loud
Yesterday I drowned myself
I was overwhelmed and felt like I was sinking
Far from the view of the sun, my sister
Alone and isolated from the world
Blessed blue sky
The beautiful sky above us
Bless us all
May we all be blessed
Deep in her fire lies a grim authority
She has a fierce power within her
Next to a blonde with a dark repression
Close to someone who hides their true feelings
Finally, I've got myself figured out
I finally understand myself
Finally, I've turned myself into the voice
I found my voice and identity
First, the forest bloomed
The first thing that happened was the forest bloomed
With Heather's lips
Heather's kiss was the cause
Like puppy ears
Soft and innocent like a puppy’s ears
Like candy
Delicious and sweet like candy
And the college grove
The trees in the college grove
Was kissed with frost - Oh boy
The trees were frozen, which was unexpected
When our skulls caved in
When we were overcome by hardship
We said: "We want freedom"
We expressed our desire for freedom during that difficult time
When the savior comes
When everything is resolved
I will be open wide,
I will be ready to accept and embrace what comes next
Open wide
I will keep an open mind and heart

Can anyone tell me the title of the background song at 3:55 onwards? All I can hear was "strong enough ... then I do not know the next words). The song seems emotional. Full of soul.

Ja, wenn man auf die falschen Leute setzt, dann drehen sich offensichtlich die Leute meines Freundes Xavier Naidoo Mannheim nicht um. Schade. Mit Gospels von Jörg Sommer wäre das nicht passiert.
