Harmonium Lyrics

Feel free to comprehend
what i see will never end
it can't be now that life is gone
its too real to overcome

Its too real
Its too real
Its too real

And these days my hands are tied
these days i think you'll find
i'm not me now a light has died
its too real to run and hide

Iwas floating in the water
something tried to pull me under
i was floating in the water
something tried to pull me under
i was trying to live my life
it wouldn't let me
let me let me let me
i was trying to live my life
it wouldn't let me
let me let me let me

Feel free to comprehend
what i see will never end
i'm not me now a light has died
its too real to run and hide

I was floating in the water
something tried to pull me under
i was floating in the water
something tried to pull me under
i was trying to live my life
it wouldn't let me
let me let me let me
i was trying to live my life
it wouldn't let me
let me let me let me

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

Cover art for Harmonium lyrics by Anathema

I think these lyrics can be a source of depression to whom listens to the song in a sentimental mood. The voice seems to say that now s/he is so sad that s/he is not living anymore, but even so the sadness will keep on. And the cause of the sadness is something or some body who came to drown her/him "in the mud". It is like a Samuel Beckett work.
