Sister
Maer Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Close the door after me
You see, wherever I go
The darkness is looming on
My sister
You don't know what I've seen
All these years that I've spent alone
And the darkness is looming on
Sister,
It's been so many years
Since you walked out of the door
And the darkness is moving on
My sister,
It's the loneliest dream
All these years that you have been gone
Silence taken over my soul
But the darkness is moving on
The darkness is moving on
All these years
I have been waiting for
You to embrace my soul, oh no
It seems to me
Now that the moment's gone
That I've been waiting for it in vain
Sing me to sleep, my sister
Lock the door and stay inside
I am always by your side
In death, my sister
We're united till the end
In the darkness after all
You know
Until the end
I’ll stay with you
Always by your side
In death
You belong to me alone
Till the end
In the darkness after all
The lyrics to Maer's song "Sister" speak of a deep longing and loneliness experienced by the singer. The central theme revolves around the sister's absence and the darkness that seems to follow them wherever they go. The first verse sets the tone, with the singer asking their sister to close the door behind them, symbolizing a departure or separation. They explain that no matter where they go, darkness is always present, looming over them.
The second verse delves further into the sister's absence, emphasizing the years spent alone and the resulting silence that has taken over their soul. Despite being apart for so long, the darkness continues to move on, haunting the singer. The lyrics hint at the loneliness and despair felt by both the singer and the sister.
The bridge highlights the singer's longing and yearning for their sister's presence. They have been waiting for many years for their sister to "embrace" their soul, suggesting a need for comfort and connection. However, it seems that the moment they have been waiting for has passed, leaving them feeling that their waiting was in vain.
The song's conclusion takes a somewhat darker turn, as the singer addresses their sister directly. They ask their sister to sing them to sleep and to lock the door, indicating a desire for protection and safety. The repeated line, "In death, my sister, we're united till the end, in the darkness after all," suggests a morbid bond between the siblings, perhaps implying that death is the only place where they can find solace and unity.
Overall, "Sister" portrays a profound sense of longing, loneliness, and the darkness that permeates the singer's existence. It explores themes of separation, despair, and a yearning for connection even in the most dire circumstances.

Sister,
Addressing the singer's sister, acknowledging her presence
Close the door after me
Please shut the door behind me
You see, wherever I go
No matter where I go, I experience
The darkness is looming on
A feeling of darkness is always present
My sister
Referring to the artist's sister
You don't know what I've seen
The singer's sister is unaware of the singer's experiences
All these years that I've spent alone
During these long years of solitude
Silence taken over my soul
Quietness has consumed the artist's inner self
And the darkness is looming on
The feeling of darkness is still ever-present
Sister,
Addressing the sister again
It's been so many years
A significant amount of time has passed
Since you walked out of the door
Since you left and departed from the house
And the darkness is moving on
The darkness continues to advance
My sister,
Referring to the sister once more
It's the loneliest dream
It is an extremely lonely and isolated experience
All these years that you have been gone
Throughout these years of your absence
Silence taken over my soul
Quietness has consumed the artist's inner self
But the darkness is moving on
However, the feeling of darkness continues to advance
The darkness is moving on
The feeling of darkness continues to advance
All these years
Throughout all this time
I have been waiting for
I have been patiently anticipating
You to embrace my soul, oh no
For you to accept and understand my inner self, but unfortunately, that hasn't happened
It seems to me
In my perspective
Now that the moment's gone
Now that the opportunity has passed
That I've been waiting for it in vain
My waiting has been futile and hopeless
Sing me to sleep, my sister
Sing a soothing lullaby to me, dear sister
Lock the door and stay inside
Secure the door and remain indoors
I am always by your side
I am consistently there to support you
In death, my sister
Even in death, dear sister
We're united till the end
We are connected and together until the very end
In the darkness after all
In the end, despite the darkness
You know
Acknowledging the sister's understanding
Until the end
Until our journey concludes
I’ll stay with you
I will remain by your side
Always by your side
Consistently supporting and being there for you
In death
Even in death
You belong to me alone
You are solely mine
Till the end
Until the very end
In the darkness after all
Despite the darkness, in the end

Everything Anna does is pure gold! This song is so atmospheric and awesome. It reminds a little bit of The Raven that Refuse to Sing !
Misery Eternal
Whoa! I literally just listened to both songs back to back just and then saw this comment. I agree with you even though they sound very different but both about Sisters and very atmospheric and emotional.

hearing the hurdy gurdy brought a smile on my face. This song would 100% fit A Plague Tale video game

Very captivating. I literally love Anna, through all the project she's been a part of and she's yet to disappoint me. She has a musical sensibility not common to many many even famous and renowned artists

Anna and Marjana have some of the most beautiful voices imaginable and are both so talented in crafting hypnotic, memorable and haunting melodies. Together these two are going to be taking songwriting and performance to new heights. I love both artists solo work and works with their bands, and together I think I will love them even more. Massive congratulations on your masterful release!
