Serenity
Geri Karlstrom Lyrics

@sealin01

Serenity Sequeria How do you say “wierdos” when you were probably named after this song? Lmao

@tstantonjr

Pretty sure he thinks of himself as another Robert Plant

@bcrwarlock1974

As an introvert, this song so resonates with me and the need to recharge and be by my self for awhile. Somewhere peaceful, and SERENE. So beautifully put together, the song itself is like a meditation. I am glad to see it has touched so many others in a similar way, even to this day it still does.

@jeremywombacher3898

I liked Godsmack all those years ago, I moved on as I grew older. The songs are good but kinda samey.

@gandalf8216

The lyrics makes more and more sense the older you get too. It gets easier, even anxiety can go away with experience and sheer power of will. The path is long, treacherous and did I say long? - but it's worth it. Nothing lasts forever, not even the worst of times.

@amywhiting1550

I am a nurse and since the change of our world in 2020 I can listen to this song over and over and it help me stay calm and focused to get through the demand of long shift, staff shortages. Thank you for being such a timeless band that can touch so many souls.

@RwBguardian

As I sit here and slowly close my eyes
I take another deep breath
And feel the wind pass through my body
I'm the one in your soul
Reflecting inner light
Protect the ones who hold you
Cradling your inner child

I need serenity
In a place where I can hide
I need serenity
Nothing changes, days go by

Where do we go when we just don't know
And how do we relight the flame when it's cold
Why do we dream when our thoughts mean nothing
And when will we learn to control

Tragic visions slowly stole my life
Tore away everything
Cheating me out of my time
I'm the one who loves you
No matter wrong or right
And every day I hold you
I hold you with my inner child

I need serenity
In a place where I can hide
I need serenity
Nothing changes, days go by

Where do we go when we just don't know
And how do we relight the flame when it's cold
Why do we dream when our thoughts mean nothing
And when will we learn to control

Where do we go when we just don't know
And how do we relight the flame when it's cold
Why do we dream when our thoughts mean nothing
And when will we learn to control

I need serenity

@EricT3769

I’m trying to get Elizabeth Zharoff of The Charismatic Voice to do a deep dive analysis of this song. She recently did one of Godsmack’s songs, “I Stand Alone”. I believe it was her first go at Godsmack, one of my all time favorite bands, and she’s got a terrific music background mostly in opera, so it’s always great seeing her enjoying other genres.

I could listen to “Serenity” over and over. There’s a veteran on one of the threads that talks about how he listens to it because it helps him when he’s in a really low and dark place. I think that’s such a fantastic thing about songs like this.

Hope you’re doing well.

@denisel4736

Godsmack has an amazing tendency to produce music that blends the human voice with instrumental acoustics to create a mesmerizing, unified sound that is the equivalent of an auditory orgasm. Voodoo was the first I'd heard from them many years ago and I was hooked. Sully's lyrics are thought-provoking and his voice is perfectly controlled to compliment the musical score instead of being in competition with it like other artists. I feel this deep in the recesses of my brain. It's known that classical music can stimulate neurons and this does as well.
