Seether Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You seem a little far away
I hate that I don't have the words to say:
I'm bored of all the little games you play
A cage is never gonna make me stay.
If we don't help ourselves, we'll fall
I find no comfort in this world.
I'll never find my way
And I'm broken by...
No shelter for me
I'll never compensate
Just to keep you mine
No shelter for me ?
Awake
I need a little comforting
I break
My mind is sick of wandering
I'm yours
I love it when I'm suffering
Too late, I don't believe in anything.
If we don't help ourselves, we'll fall
I find no comfort in this world.
I'll never find my way
And I'm broken by...
No shelter for me
I'll never compensate
Just to keep you mine
No shelter for me ?
There's no shelter here
There's no shelter
No way out of here!!!
I'll never find my way
And I'm broken by...
No shelter for me
I'll never compensate
Just to keep you mine
No shelter for me ?
I'll never find my way
And I'm broken by...
No shelter for me
I'll never compensate
Just to keep you mine.
The lyrics to Seether's song "No Shelter" depict the struggles of a person who is feeling emotionally trapped and suffocated by their relationship. The singer begins by acknowledging a sense of distance in their current situation, remarking that they are tired of the "little games" played by their loved one. It becomes clear that the relationship has become a kind of "cage," and that the singer is determined not to stay confined within it.
Throughout the song, the singer's sense of isolation and despair is apparent. They express a need for comfort and reassurance, but at the same time, they feel trapped and unsupported. The repeated refrain of "no shelter for me" is an indication of how lost and alone the singer feels. In the end, they seem to resign themselves to their predicament, admitting that they will never find their way and that they are "broken."
Overall, "No Shelter" is a poignant and powerful exploration of love and loss, and the ways in which relationships can become suffocating and overwhelming.

Today
The present moment
You seem a little far away
You appear distant and not fully connected
I hate that I don't have the words to say:
It frustrates me that I cannot express myself adequately
I'm bored of all the little games you play
I am weary of the petty, manipulative actions you take
A cage is never gonna make me stay.
Being confined or limited will not make me remain in a situation
If we don't help ourselves, we'll fall
Without self-improvement, we will experience hardship or failure
I find no comfort in this world.
I do not derive solace or ease from existence
I'll never find my way
I will not discover my path or purpose
And I'm broken by...
I am emotionally damaged, harmed, or weakened by…
No shelter for me
I have no refuge or protection for myself
I'll never compensate
I will not make adjustments or sacrifice for someone else
Just to keep you mine
Simply to maintain ownership or possession of you
Awake
Conscious or alert
I need a little comforting
I desire some consolation or reassurance
I break
I fracture or crumble
My mind is sick of wandering
My thoughts are exhausted from aimless travel
I'm yours
I belong to you
I love it when I'm suffering
I enjoy or take pleasure in my agony
Too late, I don't believe in anything.
I have reached a point where I have lost faith in everything
There's no shelter here
There is no protection or sanctuary in this place
There's no shelter
No place or person is able to shield or defend me
No way out of here!!!
I am trapped or unable to escape this situation
