Age.Sex.Location Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Voodoo, yeah
I feel like I've been cursed, oh
Voodoo doll
Life turned for the worst
I feel somebody behind me
My shadow's alive
My soul is where my demons thrive
Show me the mark of the beast
Oh my, my, my
Heaven's plagues released
Oh my, my, my
Show me the mark of the beast
Oh my, my, my
Heaven's plagues released
She told me not to worry
It'll get better
It never did, made it til the end
Of the winter
Half a year gone by
And still no reward
One year left waiting
Kill myself cause I'm bored
I can't take this anymore
I can't take this anymore
I can't take this anymore
Voodoo, yeah
I feel like I've been cursed, oh
Voodoo doll
Life turned for the worst
I feel somebody behind me
My shadow's alive
My soul is where my demons thrive
I feel like I've been cursed, oh
Voodoo doll
Life turned for the worst
I feel somebody behind me
My shadow's alive
My soul is where my demons thrive
Oh my, my, my
Heaven's plagues released
Oh my, my, my
Show me the mark of the beast




Oh my, my, my
Heaven's plagues released

Overall Meaning

The song "Voodoo" by Age.Sex.Location is about feeling like you have been cursed and that something bad is always following you. The reference to a voodoo doll suggests that perhaps someone has placed a curse on them, making their life turn for the worst. The lyrics describe the feeling of being constantly watched, with the singer feeling like there is somebody behind them, and their shadow is alive. It is as if the demons that reside in the singer's soul are controlling their every move.


The song also touches on the subject of mental health. The lyric "Kill myself cause I'm bored" suggests that the singer is struggling with feeling defeated and no longer wanting to continue living. However, there seems to be a glimmer of hope in the line "She told me not to worry. It'll get better." Despite this, the singer states that "It never did, made it til the end. Of the winter." Perhaps implying that despite trying to stay positive, things ultimately didn't improve for them.

I found this song on Spotify and fell in love right away.

@j.26

Me too! I was listening to Jadu Heart - Dead again and this was the next song. I fucking love it

@cassie.

@@j.26 Right! I was cleaning my room as I left Spotify on random songs I didn’t already have on my list. Then the song ‘Overdose’ by SG Lewis & HONNE came on & this one came on. I don’t remember which one came first but I remember falling in love with both songs on the spot. Exploring random music you don’t already have can be very serendipitous.
