Voodoo
Rediscover Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I feel my neck, check my pulse, I feel nothing at all. If I die of a broken heart tell my friends it's all your fault.
You do voodoo to keep me loving you. You do voodoo so i'll do anything for you. You do what you do. You do voodoo so i'll do anything for you.
I pull the pins from my chest and the string from my neck. If I die this loveless tell my friends that you did this.
You do voodoo to keep me loving you. You do voodoo so i'll do anything for you. You do what you do. You do voodoo so i'll do anything for you




Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Rediscover's song "Voodoo" describe a toxic and manipulative relationship in which one partner feels trapped and controlled by the other through the use of voodoo magic. The first line sets the tone for the rest of the song, with the singer feeling numb and disconnected from their own body. They express that if they were to die from the emotional pain inflicted by their partner, they want their friends to know that it was entirely the partner's fault. The recurring chorus emphasizes the power dynamic at play, with the singer feeling powerless in the face of their partner's voodoo magic. They describe the feeling of having pins in their chest and a string around their neck, as if they are being controlled like a puppet.


Overall, the lyrics paint a picture of a relationship in which one person holds all the power, using manipulation and magic to keep the other trapped in their toxic dynamic. The use of voodoo as a metaphor for this kind of manipulative behavior adds a haunting and eerie quality to the song, highlighting the way in which emotional manipulation can be just as destructive as physical harm.
