Dragonfly
Shaman's Harvest Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Maybe the sky is falling out around the babies
Maybe the world is gonna spin out of control
I don't care anymore
What if I quit today working for the man
Who said I have another, well maybe I can
'Cause it's all gonna end anyway
Tell me doctor what's the cure for the wicked mans blue

Fly dragonfly
Fly dragonfly
Fly dragonfly
Fly dragonfly

When the sky, falls to sea
I won't mind, the cause in me
When the wind, blows through the trees
I walk by the dragonfly
Fly dragonfly
Fly dragonfly

When I come, give me a beat
And take my advice, just let me be
When the moon turns black as night
We'll bathe in the light, oh dragonfly
Fly dragonfly
Don't take so long
I'll be here before you know
See you in my mind's eyes
Fly dragonfly
Fly dragonfly
Fly dragonfly

Overall Meaning

Shaman's Harvest's song "Dragonfly" touches on the idea of the uncertainty and unpredictability of life. The lyrics refer to a potential apocalypse, whether it be the sky falling or the world spinning out of control, and the singer's apathy towards it. They contemplate quitting their job and living life on their own terms because, in the grand scheme of things, life will ultimately come to an end anyway. The chorus repeats "fly dragonfly," which could represent the fleeting and transient nature of life and the idea of living life to the fullest.

The song is further emphasized by the metaphor of the dragonfly, an insect that typically symbolizes change, transformation, and adaptability. The dragonfly can also represent the fragility of life, as it has a relatively short lifespan. The lyrics suggest that the singer is willing to embrace change and adapt to different situations, just as the dragonfly does. The bridge points to a sense of urgency and impatience, suggesting that the singer does not want to waste time waiting for things to happen but instead wants to live in the moment.

Line by Line Meaning

Maybe the sky is falling out around the babies
Perhaps the world is in chaos and insecurity, especially for the weak,

Maybe the world is gonna spin out of control
Maybe everything is so disorganized that nothing is the same for long anymore,

I don't care anymore
I am indifferent to all of this; nothing can cause me trouble,

What if I quit today working for the man
What if I stop serving the higher-ups today, what will happen then,

Who said I have another, well maybe I can
Is it definite that I have another job? Maybe I don't need one,

'Cause it's all gonna end anyway
Because in the end, everything is going to stop,

Tell me doctor what's the cure for the wicked mans blue
Please enlighten me with the remedy for the blight that strikes the immoral souls,

Fly dragonfly
Go, little dragonfly,

When the sky, falls to sea
When everything comes tumbling down,

I won't mind, the cause in me
I won't be concerned about the factor that propelled this event,

When the wind, blows through the trees
When the wind begins to rustle the trees and create movement,

I walk by the dragonfly
I will stroll past the dragonfly,

When I come, give me a beat
When I arrive, play the groovy music for me,

And take my advice, just let me be
Follow my suggestion and leave me alone,

When the moon turns black as night
When the moon ceases to emanate its glow,

We'll bathe in the light, oh dragonfly
We will get washed over by your illumination, oh little dragonfly,

Don't take so long
Don't be slow to come and visit,

I'll be here before you know
I will be available before you even realize it,

See you in my mind's eyes
I will visualize your presence in my mental imagery,

Fly dragonfly
Go, little dragonfly,

Fly dragonfly
Go, little dragonfly
