Voices
Shaman's Harvest Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
They've been bringing me low
Words I don't understand, more animal than man
These voices tryin' to kill me
And they're waiting for that time I give in
The waters come crashin' over my head
A melody only heard, never said
'Til the demons of me come scratchin' again
These voices ruthless in chasing
But they don't follow you down
Everything I left inside has given me nowhere to hide
Turn 'round, it's you that you're facing
And it's waiting for that time I give in
The waters come crashin' over my head
A melody only heard, never said
Oh bless my soul, keep them devils down below
'Til the demons of me come scratchin' again
(Oh Lord, bless my soul, keep them devils down below)
The waters come crashin' over my head
A melody only heard, never said
Oh bless my soul, keep them devils down below
'Til the demons of me come scratchin' again
The waters come crashin' over my head
A melody only heard, never said
Oh bless my soul, keep them devils down below
'Til the demons of me come scratchin' again

These voices tryin' to kill me
The internal thoughts and doubts in my mind are threatening to harm me
They've been bringing me low
These thoughts and doubts are causing me to feel down
Words I don't understand, more animal than man
The thoughts are incomprehensible and may seem primal or instinctual in nature
And they're waiting for that time I give in
The thoughts are patiently waiting for me to succumb to their influence
The waters come crashin' over my head
I feel overwhelmed by the weight of my thoughts
A melody only heard, never said
My inner turmoil is expressed through the emotions I feel rather than the words I say
Oh bless my soul, keep them devils down below
I pray for protection from my negative thoughts and emotions
'Til the demons of me come scratchin' again
I fear that my inner demons will resurface and cause me trouble once more
These voices ruthless in chasing
The thoughts and doubts relentlessly pursue me
But they don't follow you down
The influence of these negative thoughts does not affect those around me
Everything I left inside has given me nowhere to hide
I cannot escape the negative thoughts and must confront them
Turn 'round, it's you that you're facing
I must face my inner turmoil and take responsibility for my thoughts and emotions
(Oh Lord, bless my soul, keep them devils down below)
I appeal for divine intervention to protect me from my negative thoughts

@simonswayzegaming544
Best theme song
@c.s.440
Oh my gosh, same here me too! It's crazy to me how more people aren't aware of this band! 🤯
This band is so good and they create such amazing songs and music that I always wind up playing these guys for people because I'm like "oh my gosh you have to listen to these guys they're something else entirely" and they always wind up thinking the same thing once they hear them and become instant fans to. It's like they don't get enough publicity or the attention they should for how good they are. 🤘
@rtbrain
How S|H isn’t a mega band is beyond logic. Nate’s voice coupled with the brilliant lyrics punches a hole in my soul every time I listen to then which is A LOT!!!🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼

The best bands are always a secret to the mainstream
@tinyhato

@02levally
