So beautifully put together, the song itself is like a meditation. I am glad to see it has touched so many others in a similar way, even to this day it still does.

      The lyrics makes more and more sense the older you get too. It gets easier, even anxiety can go away with experience and sheer power of will. The path is long, treacherous and did I say long? - but it's worth it. Nothing lasts forever, not even the worst of times.

    For those that don't know - "Serenity," vocalist Sully Erna reached to one of his idols for inspiration. Not only was Rush drummer Neil Peart a childhood role model for the singer before he traded in drums for a mic and PA, the acrobatic drummer's obsession with motorcycles is one shared by Godsmack's frontman.
    So, when Erna read Peart's book, "Ghost Rider" -- which is about his experiences hopping on a hog and road-tripping around the country to cope with the tragic loss of his daughter and wife -- the Godsmack singer was so blown away he wrote "Serenity" in tribute".

I am blessed to have 9 1/2 years sober--and these two songs keep it real for me. Addiction sucks --the only reason I am not a heroin addict is I didn't "get to it"....an addict is an addict. ODAAT

      this song is not about addiction, it is a tribute to the drummer from the band RUSH. His daughter and wife were killed in a accident. He rode a motorcycle over fifty thousand miles in one year to clear his head instead of killing himself over the loss of his two ladies. Sully says this on one of their videos, watch " an evening with GODSMACK" it's just over an hour long. let me know if you find it. have a great day.

    As I sit here and slowly close my eyes
    I take another deep breath and feel the wind pass through my body
    I'm the one in your soul, reflecting inner light
    Protect the ones who hold you, cradeling your inner child
    I need serenity in a place where I can hide
    I need serenity, nothing changes days go by
    Where do we go when we just don't know
    And how do we re-light the flame when it's cold
    Why do we dream when our thoughts mean nothing
    And when will we learn to control
    Tragic visions slowly stole my life
    Tore away everything, cheating me out of my time
    I'm the one who loves you no matter wrong or right
    And everyday I hold you
    I hold you with my inner child
    I need serenity in a place where I can hide
    I need serenity, nothing changes days go by
    Where do we go when we just don't know
    And how do we re-light the flame when it's cold
    Why do we dream when our thoughts mean nothing
    And when will we learn to control
    Where do we go when we just don't know
    And how do we re-light the flame when it's cold
    Why do we dream when our thoughts mean nothing
    And when will we learn to control
    I need serenity (Where do we go when we just don't know)
    I need serenity (And how do we re-light the flame when it's cold)
    I need serenity (Why do we dream when our thoughts mean nothing)
    I need serenity (And when will we learn to control)

    Godsmack has an amazing tendency to produce music that blends the human voice with instrumental acoustics to create a mesmerizing, unified sound that is the equivalent of an auditory orgasm. Voodoo was the first I'd heard from them many years ago and I was hooked. Sully's lyrics are thought-provoking and his voice is perfectly controlled to compliment the musical score instead of being in competition with it like other artists. I feel this deep in the recesses of my brain. It's known that classical music can stimulate neurons and this does as well.

Time flies by for us all and one day again we will be able to hold each other in our arms, graze our hands against each other's faces, look into one another's souls through our eyes, and kiss each other with fiery passion.

      I’m trying to get Elizabeth Zharoff of The Charismatic Voice to do a deep dive analysis of this song. She recently did one of Godsmack’s songs, “I Stand Alone”. I believe it was her first go at Godsmack, one of my all time favorite bands, and she’s got a terrific music background mostly in opera, so it’s always great seeing her enjoying other genres.
      I could listen to “Serenity” over and over. There’s a veteran on one of the threads that talks about how he listens to it because it helps him when he’s in a really low and dark place. I think that’s such a fantastic thing about songs like this.
      Hope you’re doing well.
