Seether Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Though I'm closer to wrong I'm no further from right
And now I'm convinced on the inside that something's wrong with me
Convinced on the inside, you're so much more than me, yeah
No there's nothing you say that can salvage the lie
But I'm trying to keep my intentions disguised
And now I'm deprived of my conscience and something's got to give
I'm beaten down again, I belong to them
Beaten down again, I've failed you
I'm weaker now my friend, I belong to them
Beaten down again, I've failed you
The deception you show is your own parasite
Just a word of advice you can heed if you like
And now I'm convinced on the inside that something's wrong with me
Convinced on the inside you're so much more than me, yeah
I'm beaten down again, I belong to them
Beaten down again, I've failed you
I'm weaker now my friend, I belong to them
Beaten down again, I've failed you
I'm beaten down again, I belong to them
Beaten down again, I've failed you
I'm weaker now my friend, I belong to them
Beaten down again, I've failed you
I'm beaten down
I'm beaten down
I'm beaten down
I'm beaten down
Seether's song Truth is a thought-provoking track that deals with the theme of internal conflict and struggle. The first two lines of the song express a yearning to tell the truth, but also acknowledge that truth can sometimes be a heavy burden to bear. The singer acknowledges that they may be wrong, but also states that being wrong is not the same as being completely disconnected from the truth. They convey a sense of inner turmoil and anxiety about being unable to reconcile their own contradictions.
The chorus features the singer admitting that they are "beaten down" and that they currently belong to someone or something. This suggests that they feel powerless and are lacking agency over their own life. The repeated use of "I've failed you" further reinforces this notion of personal failure and inadequacy. The bridge of the song contains a warning to others about the dangers of deception and the importance of being true to oneself.
Overall, the lyrics of Truth are introspective and deeply personal, exploring the difficulties of navigating one's own sense of self in an often confusing and chaotic world.

May all the negative energy trying to bring
you down come to an end. May the dark
thoughts, the overthinking, and the doubt
exit your mind right now. May clarity replace
confusion. May hope replace fear.
May blessings and success fill your life.
May the light of your spirit shine so bright
that nothing can dim your glow.
Shine on🌻💫✨♥️
