The Verve
Soulspell Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

[Judith - Daisa]
There are worse enemies
Than all you face while you live
Life goes by faster than you wish
But that, my son, is needless to say

[Frederic - Gubert]
I'll care 'bout you endlessly
Just like we used to play innocently
But it's needless to say

[Frederic - Gubert]
Verve has left me

[Hollow - Zema]
Your fear feeds my soul

[Frederic - Gubert]
May I live again?

[Hollow - Zema]
Pointless to strggle

[Frederic - Gubert]
verve has left me

[Hollow - Zema]
Your existence will never last

[Frederic - Gubert]
May I live again?

[Hollow - Zema]
Timo you'll be next

[Judith - Daisa]
I'd give my heart to ease your pain
Retentless is your dedtiny
It's happening again

[Hollow - Zema]
It's happening again
Judith, you'd better pray

[Frederic - Gubert]
Verve has left me ...

[Timo - Pastore]
To the land of light
Left no pain behind
Blessed us with your smile
Judgment is divine
I can't help but trusting you in His hands

[Frederic - Gubert]
Humanity is the absence of all colors
A tiny little grain in puzzle of flesh
No human being was ever conscious
Not at all
Finding joy in their blindness

[Judith - Daisa]
Finding joy in their blindness

[Frederic - Gubert]
They'll remain untold
Timo, our paths will soon cross again
All I ask you now is to be brave
Farewell, my friend
I leave in peace

[Frederic - Gubert]
Verve has left me ...

[Hollow - Zema]
Oh, Timo you'll be next
You will never last




You will be the next
Come on!

Overall Meaning

The song "The Verve" by the Brazilian power metal band Soulspell is a powerful and emotional tale of betrayal, fear, and loss. The lyrics are cryptic and open to interpretation, but they seem to tell the story of a group of friends who are facing their own mortality and the impending end of their world. The chorus repeats the line "Verve has left me" several times, which could be a reference to the loss of passion, energy, or vitality. One verse seems to suggest that the characters are finding joy in their blindness or ignorance, which could be a critique of humanity's lack of self-awareness or refusal to see the truth.


The song features several vocalists, each portraying a different character in the story. Judith, Daisa, and Hollow, Zema, provide haunting and melodic vocals that contrast with Frederic and Timo's rougher, more aggressive style. The contrast in vocals adds to the uneasy feeling of the lyrics and adds depth to the characters.


Overall, "The Verve" is a complex and layered song that rewards multiple listens. It's a testament to the power of well-crafted storytelling and atmospheric music to evoke powerful emotions in the listener.
