The meaning of the lyrics of the song "Sever" by the artist "We As Human"

Contents

The lyrics of the song "Sever" by We As Human are a metaphorical depiction of the internal struggle with one's dark side. The lyrical hero is torn between light and darkness, good and evil, which represent two parts of his personality.

"The sun is setting, it's feeding time, your demons come alive" - the onset of darkness symbolizes the moment when suppressed negative emotions and thoughts surface. "You try, but you can't defeat them" - the struggle with inner demons is difficult and exhausting. "I'm reaching for the knife" - desperation and the desire to get rid of the dark side of oneself at any cost.

"Severing my soul, I watch you undergo all this violence" - an attempt to distance oneself from the darkness, watching as it destroys the other half of him. "Cancer in my bones, you won't let me go" - the realization that darkness is an integral part of his being, which is impossible to get rid of completely.

"Wake up, the moon is rising, you feel your other side" - an appeal to your dark side, accepting it as a part of yourself. "The taste is so bitter, but it will fade" - accepting the pain and bitterness that the struggle brings.

"I have severed the ties... My body and soul are still at war" - the path to liberation from darkness is not over, the battle continues. "I'm shedding my skin... I feel the light setting me free" - finding hope for the victory of light and healing.

The repeated phrase "It turns out that I'm tearing you apart" emphasizes the agonizing process of inner struggle and transformation. The lyrical hero realizes that he himself is the source of both pain and liberation.

Sundown it's time to feed it

Your demons come to life

You try but can't defeat them

It's over say goodnight

I see you shiver

We're running out of time

It's now or never

I'm reaching for the knife

And I see a new day rising

As we divide

[Chorus:]

Separate my soul

Watch as you expose

All this violence

Out of control

Cancer in my bones

You wont let me go

So it's you I sever

Wake up the moon is rising

You feel the other side

Tonight you face the dying

There's nowhere left to hide

The taste so bitter

But it will wash away

I will deliver

The sickness to the grave

And I see a new day rising

As we divide

[Chorus:]

Separate my soul

Watch as you expose

All this violence

Out of control

Cancer in my bones

You wont let me go

So it's you I sever

I cut the ties

I've been betrayed

My flesh and soul are still at war

I shed the skin underneath

I feel the light

Set me free

[Chorus:]

Separate my soul

Watch as you expose

All this violence

Out of control

Cancer in my bones

You wont let me go

So it's you I sever

I see a new day rising

All this violence

So it's you I sever

I see a new day rising

All this violence

It's you I sever

It's you I sever

It's you I sever
