Where Is My Soul
Finn Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
What lies beneath
Look in the shadows
And the spaces in between
A vision ghosted
Appearing on my screen
Soul, where is my soul
I seek contentment
I'm acting still
All airs and graces
With a smile before you kill
Hold back the hostile crowd
Before they trample you down
Soul, where is my soul
Where is my soul
I'll go up
With my conscience clean
Down below
They're looking for me
And I know
You've got my soul
Oh, holy ancient
I'll smoke you up
I'll take your wisdom
And I'll turn it into dust
You fill my ashtray
The one I've come to trust
Soul, where is my soul
Where is my soul
Soul, where is my soul
Where is my soul
Soul, you've lost control
Of all you've had
Soul, where is my soul
Your will so bad
The song "Where Is My Soul" by the Finn Brothers is a reflective and introspective piece that ponders the state of the soul. The opening lines use the metaphor of a wick in a candle to symbolize the hidden aspects of oneself, "what lies beneath." The next line, "look in the shadows and the spaces in between," encourages introspection and self-reflection. The line "a vision ghosted, appearing on my screen" suggests a spiritual or metaphysical encounter, heightening the tension around the lost soul.
The chorus, "soul, where is my soul," repeats throughout the song as a desperate plea and a question seeking answers. The singer is longing for contentment, but the allusions to "acting still" and "airs and graces" suggest they feel fake or insincere. The second verse introduces the idea of an angry or hostile crowd with the line "hold back the hostile crowd before they trample you down." This line could suggest a need for self-protection in a world that can be unforgiving.
The bridge of the song contrasts the singer's morality with the fear of being caught. "I'll go up with my conscience clean/Down below they're looking for me/And I know you've got my soul" suggests that even though the singer knows someone is looking for them, they are morally confident in themselves. The final verse directly addresses the soul, "soul you've lost control of all you've had/your will so bad." The singer implies that their soul is out of control, leading them astray.
Line by Line Meaning
Wick in the candle
Beginning of something, a new start
What lies beneath
What is hidden, what is not visible
Look in the shadows
Be aware of what's happening in the darkness or unknown
And the spaces in between
What's left unspoken or unexplored
A vision ghosted
Something that appeared, even if it's a mere idea
Appearing on my screen
Something that has caught the attention
Soul, where is my soul
Feeling lost and needing guidance or direction
I seek contentment
Desiring peace and happiness
I'm acting still
Putting on a front, even if the emotions are not genuine
All airs and graces
Mannerisms or gestures that might come across as pretentious
With a smile before you kill
Hiding intentions or feelings behind a false exterior
Hold back the hostile crowd
Trying to keep the negativity or chaos at bay
Before they trample you down
Being vulnerable and in danger of being hurt
I'll go up
An aspiration to transcend
With my conscience clean
Without guilt or hesitation
Down below
Beneath or beyond
They're looking for me
Being pursued or hunted
And I know
Being aware and accepting a situation
You've got my soul
Being owned or controlled by someone or something else
Oh, holy ancient
Adressing a god or a respected entity
I'll smoke you up
Taking in everything a higher power offers
I'll take your wisdom
Aspiring to gain knowledge or insight
And I'll turn it into dust
Eventually losing or devaluing something precious
You fill my ashtray
Something that has been used up or consumed
The one I've come to trust
Reliability in something that might not be good or healthy
Soul, you've lost control
Feeling disconnected from oneself
Of all you've had
Not recognizing the value of everything that has been gained
Soul, where is my soul
The persistent question of life's purpose and meaning
Your will so bad
Feeling hopeless, incapable or unworthy of achieving desires
