When I was 5 a woman tried to drown me by throwing me in the deep end of a pool. She stepped on my hands when I tried to climb out. A little boy my same age dived in and showed me how to dog paddle to the shallow end. This song always reminds me of the incident but not in a bad way. It reminds me of how strong I am. How I swim instead of sink. It is a powerful song. I spin and weave, make costumes and masks so I fell in love with every aspect of this video. I love the symbolism.
When I discovered this song, I was in a very difficult place in my life, in a relationship where I often felt used and ignored. It wasn't overtly malicious, but there was a level of cruelty that can come from others stuck in the depths of their own despair. This song has always makes me feel empowered though, and there have been multiple times it has helped me get to a mental place where I could stand up for and advocate for myself.
"there was a level of cruelty that can come from others stuck in the depths of their own despair" as a nearly lifelong sufferer of depression, this is so true, and one of the hardest things to overcome. Emotions are coercive. They imperceptivity color your experience and shift the boundaries of what feels reasonable or unreasonable. When we hurt, we are overtaken by reactiveness to anything that triggers that pain, and our emotions tell us to hit back. Friends and loved ones who know each other well often know right where to hit. Learning to recognize when emotion has clouded your thinking is a skill that must be honed for just about everyone, but for those with depression it is made significantly more difficult by that condition's uncanny ability to convince us we are "finally" seeing things clearly. Learning to communicate your internal state and take the proper steps to care for yourself without hurting others in the process is a long and difficult process, but one that makes life immeasurably better in the long run.
I cannot express how much I love your music. The energy, the aura, and the power in the imagery and the lyrics are phenomenal. I have been watching and listening to your other videos as well. Absolutely beautiful. Every person has their contribution to your masterpiece. Wow. Thank you. I can't stop listening.
I've been listening to this song almost on repeat for the past month or two. It's slowly helping me get through some intense depression. I love it so much.
Cassie Eck stick with it Cassie. With Depression and using alcohol .. My depression goes hand in hand with PTSD. I was using alcohol a lot (3 ltr of Vodka on my own in 2 days). I found a connection to Shireen's words 'Drag me down under water, I cant breath no one saves me, drag me down into sorrow. take my hand, I'll drown you with me.' Keep chin up Cassie, glad it is helping you get through intense depression too :) Stay Safe.
I am so sorry to read this! I know what you mean I have songs I turn to in depression that help me make it through. I am a stranger and sometimes easier to talk to than ones you know. No judgement I'm here if you ever need some one to hear you.🥰🥰🥰
Thank you, all of you. I literally just saw these comments and sat here and cried over the fact that perfect strangers would reach out in such kind ways. I am over whelmed by you all. since its been 11 months from my old post i guess i'll update a bit, i am doing better. I am finding this song, among others, as a source of strength now. I hope you are all well and safe
The voice is stunning and the lyric works like a passage between the world above the water surface and the second under it. It is mesmeric and sounds as chanting a magic formula in some way. The video clip is also a piece of unseen art. I am impressed and glad I found this talented and unique interpreter. Thank you for your hard work, Shireen. Your art touched my heart and the memory of it will stay there for the rest of my days. Do not ever lose faith in your work or throw away your uniqueness in this grey world of consumption.
I love this video, it is amazing to watch, for the colors and shapes. The movements of all the actors. The lights and scenarios...; Umai is amazing too, but this one has something special. Off topic: I'm in love with Annicke's dimples
I love the music, and your voice, but...The aesthetic of your work is breathtaking to me. As a former filmmaker/editor, I am stunned by the outstanding vision of your work, and the creative team that works with you. I love it.
I love the beauty and chaos of the costumes. It's a perfect representation of being human. We are beautiful and chaotic at the same time. We can show love and kindness but we also can't exist without inadvertently (or intentionally) causing chaos of varying degrees.
I have no idea hom many times I have listened this song in recent days. TH-cam recomendations brought me here and I cannot let go This is when Apocalyptica meets Tool, Wardruna, Florence&TheMachine and who knows what else. Addicting.
i believe that's from a book, which author or book , escapes me at the moment, but that's part of the human condition, getting old and forgetting bits of trivia, lol
@@The-Random-Hamlet ya man, i wasn't saying you ripped it from someone, i use little sayings and phrases that i know aren't my original idea ,but i couldn't tell you where i heard or read them, but i put a twist on them , but anyway, as a part of the human condition, we discover and rediscover similar things about the nature of our beast
It's not a condition it's an addiction. Ha you think addiction is exclusive to the third dimension specific only to those with biology? This is the addiction beings of light are afflicted by. Addiction is a symptom, not a cause. Address the cause. Oh but being alive feels so good. The pain, the joy, the sensual experience. Being human is the dream a being if light has when put in the fourth dimensional equivalent of a sensory deprivation tank. I WANT TO WAKE UP NOW!
I wonder if the thread is a representation of life? Just like in Greek mythology 3 fates, that controlled the thread of life. Being entwined in all these threads is showing how our fates collide and how we can get trapped in a web of our own choices.
Hello, You are wondering totally right. The thread is representing Fate itself. Good job reading between the bling and colours and grasping the deeper meaning. Thank you
I don't feel trapped in a web of my own choices. I feel trapped in circumstances entirely outside of my control and having nothing to do with my own choices.
Struggling right now with the toxicity of some people around me... I was working out to let go of the anger, and this song started playing at the end of my session. I looked at the trees and smiled. Thank you.
It is not easy to cope with narcissistic people. If your significant other is one, or inherited the behavioral pattern of a narcissist from their parents, or is scared by it, you sometimes really has to be stronger than life to cope with it. You will need an endless amount of patience too.
I loved this masterpiece, the costumes, the representations of what the music want to share and of course the choice of music to have a video. I will watch some more times to understand all the scenes on the lyrics context... when i listened to the music without video, I imagined that "Drag me down underwater" would have been made in someplace in the water and someone pushing Shireen to underwater...but, it would be too simplory, the idea of the ropes grabing the band and her is cool, cause that simbolic way to transmit an indea is their charm. Please GOD for the next
I love this group. I wish they had the resources to release more frequent videos. I've watched this video, Unmarked, and Umai dozens of times and still enjoy them like the first time.
This song just popped up from autoplay for me again, after I hadn't heard it in a few years. It's so hypnotic, deep, powerful, and trance-like. I read through some of the comments and realized that I too had been listening to this song a lot through some rough times. I'm not going to go into the circumstances, but it was the worst year of my life. Looking back, I remember finding solace in this song. Things are better for me now, but this song stirs some deep emotions in me as I listen. I guess that's what good music does best.
I'm really digging the imagery of this video, not sure if anyone else caught the three fates at work. This song is raw and powerful and I'm totally in love.
I'm... Sad with myself that I found you years later, but I'm happy that I did today. Even if it is 04:25. Thank you for creating such beautiful music. ❤️
I've listened to & watched this many times. Love the music, one of my favorites, and love the video. The Fates weaving the threads of lives is so appropriate and (at least to me) meaningful. Y'all are so damned talented!
You say it's only words But they hurt so much You think your hands are warm But they are cold to the touch You fucking hate and manipulate Tell me I am the one You think it's all right to be cruel It's so human of you It was a cold, cold day When things fell apart It was a sad, sad thing There is ice on my heart You think a person needs to be broken So that's what you do You think it's all right to be cruel It's so human of you So you smile, I see your smile, and I cry Drag me under, drag me down, and I try The surface will not let you take my smile For I am strong, I can be stronger than lie So you smile, I see your smile and I cry Drag me under, drag me down, and I try The surface will not let you fake my smile For I am strong, I can be stronger than lie Drag me down, underwater I can't breath, no one saves me Drag me down, into sorrow Take my hand, I'll drown you with me Drag me down, underwater I can't breath, no one saves me Drag me down, into sorrow Take my hand, I'll drown you with me Drag me down, underwater I can't breath, no one saves me Drag me down, into sorrow Take my hand, I'll drown you with me So you smile, I see your smile, and I cry Drag me under, drag me down, and I try The surface will not let you take my smile For I am strong, I can be stronger than lie So you smile, I see your smile and I cry Drag me under, drag me down, and I try The surface will not let you fake my smile For I am strong, I can be stronger than lie Drag me down, underwater I can't breath, no one saves me Drag me down, into sorrow Take my hand, I'll drown you with me Drag me down, underwater I can't breath, no one saves me Drag me down, into sorrow Take my hand, I'll drown you with me Drag me down, underwater I can't breath, no one saves me Drag me down, into sorrow Take my hand, I'll drown you with me
I don't believe in "toxic, unhealthy, abusive relationships" just people who are that way. The implication is that if they were in a relationship with someone else they might have a different outcome. I think some people are unable to live in harmony with anyone else.
One of my favorite bands now days......The percutions are excellent, the voice, the lyrics..... A string solo (or some other kind) would be just espectacular.
I have been listening to this piece of art since a year now. The song is majestic itself, plus I find the video mesmerizing and marvellious. I find the lyrics quite interspective and deep, makes me wish to be the least human I can be, in a good way. The song touches me every single time. It goes straight to my life-long favourites.
Saving this vid to a private list of songs for myself to listen to for when I am feeling insecure in myself. I have, in the past, been weak against psychological manipulation. This now has a well-deserved place next to "We're Not Gonna Take It" and "I'm Gonna Do My Thing".
Bravo Shireen! since youtube suggested you guys to me with Umai i have been under your enchantment. i get so much inspiration to keep going on and believe in my own magic because of you. i cant wait to one day meet you all!
I'm going through a roller coaster of ups and downs recently. The highs are the epitome of happiness and the lows are the darkest depths of despair. I've not heard many of your songs, but several of the ones I have heard, are for some reason, really hitting me right now (not in a bad way, in a kind of connection way).
The core essence and healthy natur of humanity is Love. It only gets cruel, empty and dark if it cannot unfold itself. If you become disconnected from yourself, your humanity, the Love within yourself♥️
I love your music. It has a great narrative mood to it, I'm adding a lot of them to playlists I'm making for my books. Thank you for the motivation to keep going.
There's something about this song that I hadn't noticed until seeing this video. At the moment the ropes began to slither, the imagery struck me with a Tool vibe and I suddenly realized that the intro to this song has a Tool vibe - and I mean that in the most flattering way. Obviously, neither the song (well, the underlying rhythm does, but...) nor the imagery continues in that vein - and I mean that in the most flattering way. Annicke could be forgiven if the costumes/designs in this video out-shined the music/singing, but she seems as adept at her side job as at her day job. Kudos to the entire team for creating an artistic music video, bereft of disposability.
I've been listening alot to Sinéad O'Conner since the saddeness of her leaving this realm 😢 And in all honesty I stumbled upon this song. As an artist, photographer and player of words I L❤ve your artistic vision, sound and words. Wickedly captivating to the senses ❤❤❤
The more I watch this the more I feel like it's a binding spell invoking the Fates (#3 represented, along with a weaver), all with the intention of unwinding and weaving a new fate from the one previously lived.
Ah yes the new video is here. I noticed you promising it a few days ago. Being very familiar with this song, which I love love love, it was amusing to see the artistic ideas that went into the video. Not what I was expecting. It is a wonderful video. I am sure everyone had a blast designing the costumes.
I cannot get over how powerful this song is.
Are you Dan Atherton the downhill mountain bike racer? I agree either way. It is a powerful song. There’s something to it.

wow - I don't know what makes people cruel.
The artwork of this whole thing is phenomenal - the music, visuals including cinematography, makeup and costume… This is incredible
What a great song, I love it! I put it into my "Shellshocked Radio - Recommendations" List: th-cam.com/video/7K5D9KA3_vU/w-d-xo.html Very well done!
of course
Pretty sure she does all that while looking pretty. Amazing talent
" So you think a person needs to be broken,
so thats what you do.
You think its alright ... oh thats so Human of you ! "

She's spinning the thread that would bind her...thinking it would save her.
The symbolism is immaculate.
So powerful. And AESTHETIC. I think I'm addicted to this band, can't stop singing their songs, they're a vital part of me now.

I used to think fashion was pretentious, but this is fire, she absolutely nails it, visuals and all
This takes me on inner trip to deeper levels of my consciousness. It's amazing piece of art. Thank you. Agape to all good people out there xxxx
Synchronicity. Was just talking to a friend about agape and now it’s mentioned on a random music video page.
Annicke Shireen... One of those under-appreciated gifts to the world and the human race.
The costumes, lighting and makeup work is all phenomenal. Couldn't be a better video for the song.
Soooooo
i watch it over and over its amazing,,,, i share it, i want others to enjoy it
You guys deserve way more fucking recognition. Your music is always a breath of fresh air.
The cello is on fire
6/8, 7/8 & 8/8 time-signatures all in one song. My kind of writing!

This is an exciting new sound i haven't heard before, it has a substance that i can't put my finger on...wonderful.
This is one of the best songs I’ve heard in my life, I have no idea why but it just speaks to me on such a deep emotional level.
The aesthetics of this video are honestly great

Alternative look at this: Someone pouring their feelings out about being manipulated by narcissistic people.
That's exactly what I got from it..
That's what I thought haha
That is what I thought too.
Incorrect. This is not a general song. It is about a specific being.

Visually spectacular, emotionally raw. This is what the casual cruelty of
betrayal feels like.
Eight songbirds attracted to this song from Shireen ... They added their enhancement ... Awesome ...💕🍻🤘😎
I love this song so much. I love the design of the video, the makeup and the costumes. All of it is just so fascinating.
I freaking love the ornaments in her braided hair. That's a really cute look.
wait, why the heck is this unlisted?
Witchcraft is why.
You should thank God your not the one who hurt her so deeply.
That much I can tell you.....

So eclectic, loving every moment & musical note!!!
You say it's only words
But they hurt so much
You think your hands are warm
But they are cold to the touch
You fucking hate and manipulate
Tell me I am the one
You think it's all right to be cruel
It's so human of you
It was a cold, cold day
When things fell apart
It was a sad, sad thing
There is ice on my heart
You think a person needs to be broken
So that's what you do
You think it's all right to be cruel
It's so human of you
So you smile, I see your smile, and I cry
Drag me under, drag me down, and I try
The surface will not let you take my smile
For I am strong, I can be stronger than lie
So you smile, I see your smile and I cry
Drag me under, drag me down, and I try
The surface will not let you fake my smile
For I am strong, I can be stronger than lie
Drag me down, underwater
I can't breath, no one saves me
Drag me down, into sorrow
Take my hand, I'll drown you with me
Drag me down, underwater
I can't breath, no one saves me
Drag me down, into sorrow
Take my hand, I'll drown you with me
Drag me down, underwater
I can't breath, no one saves me
Drag me down, into sorrow
Take my hand, I'll drown you with me
So you smile, I see your smile, and I cry
Drag me under, drag me down, and I try
The surface will not let you take my smile
For I am strong, I can be stronger than lie
So you smile, I see your smile and I cry
Drag me under, drag me down, and I try
The surface will not let you fake my smile
For I am strong, I can be stronger than lie
Drag me down, underwater
I can't breath, no one saves me
Drag me down, into sorrow
Take my hand, I'll drown you with me
Drag me down, underwater
I can't breath, no one saves me
Drag me down, into sorrow
Take my hand, I'll drown you with me
Drag me down, underwater
I can't breath, no one saves me
Drag me down, into sorrow
Take my hand, I'll drown you with me
Thank you!😁
Ok. Yes this is how I feel.read it oh my yess

Beautiful work and beautiful song! I'm glad I discovered this awesome band years ago.
This is legitimately the most amazing song I've heard in the last year, and I hope all the best for the band moving forward.
The dress at 5:08 with the snakes is BEAUTIFUL and I wish I could find it to buy it
Bravo Shireen! since youtube suggested you guys to me with Umai i have been under your enchantment. i get so much inspiration to keep going on and believe in my own magic because of you. i cant wait to one day meet you all!
Wow the music and music is so entrancing. I love it. The video and music definitely held my attention.
Can't. Stop. Listening. I'm in love with this song and the video.
Awesome!I like the direction this band has taken with this one.l love chorus at the end
Amazing song. I am getting strong Vampire the Masquerade vibes from the video
One of the best discoveries of my pandemic playlist
WOW!! is it just me or is this a whole lot Heavier??? Not complaining it's beautifully done!!
I love you Spotify for recommend this Band and in my 2019 retrospective was the most played band.
There's a certain UNKLE whisper about this composition and an ethereal nature to Shireen that captures a dark fierceness ...intoxicating
That was so beautiful every little detail was very beautiful it reminded me of something my friend Pollyanna high gloss and Sherrie would have made
Dude.. a bunch of songs from this Album Gave me chills!! I live her..
Battled and left a narcissist.This songs relevance in my time, is everything. New fan and subscriber.
Good luck best wishes and strength to you in recovering and moving forward. It's been a year and a bit and this music has helped me so much
I think one can only find beauty in weirdness. Because the perfection of just a glance into someone's eyes is also weird.
Don't stop making your music please! It's awesome!
Les costumes et les décors sont si magnifiques !!
The video, the music, even my child who is 4 loves this. Epic, timely, great, and all just fantastic
You guys ROCK!!!!! I love all of your music! You are all beautiful and wondrous.
I rather like the fact that I chose my own fate. Goddess grant me the strength to fulfill the destiny I choose. Blessed Be!
All choose their fates love, one way or another. God mother I am ✝️😭🌈🙏🔥🔥🔥🌍
I'm going through a roller coaster of ups and downs recently. The highs are the epitome of happiness and the lows are the darkest depths of despair. I've not heard many of your songs, but several of the ones I have heard, are for some reason, really hitting me right now (not in a bad way, in a kind of connection way).
Going through a tough weekend, this song always hits hard. It is so powerful.
You were absolutely phenomenal today! It was a joy to watch you perform
another video that has heart and a beautiful spirit. phenomenal ....
The core essence and healthy natur of humanity is Love. It only gets cruel, empty and dark if it cannot unfold itself. If you become disconnected from yourself, your humanity, the Love within yourself♥️
I love your music. It has a great narrative mood to it, I'm adding a lot of them to playlists I'm making for my books. Thank you for the motivation to keep going.
This is absolutely wonderful - as is all your music and other videos. You are so creative!
Отличная песня, регулярно приходу переслушать (да и пересмотреть клип тоже, масса ярких образов).
I'm so glad I clicked on this video when it showed up on my feed! The costumes are amazing, I love the lyrics and the overal sound of this :)
love this song one of my fav of her album
There's something about this song that I hadn't noticed until seeing this video. At the moment the ropes began to slither, the imagery struck me with a Tool vibe and I suddenly realized that the intro to this song has a Tool vibe - and I mean that in the most flattering way. Obviously, neither the song (well, the underlying rhythm does, but...) nor the imagery continues in that vein - and I mean that in the most flattering way. Annicke could be forgiven if the costumes/designs in this video out-shined the music/singing, but she seems as adept at her side job as at her day job. Kudos to the entire team for creating an artistic music video, bereft of disposability.
I've been listening alot to Sinéad O'Conner since the saddeness of her leaving this realm 😢
And in all honesty I stumbled upon this song.
As an artist, photographer and player of words I L❤ve your artistic vision, sound and words.
Wickedly captivating to the senses ❤❤❤
First time hearing this band. It's got a Tool-ish undertone, I like it.
I cannt get enough of this song.
Great vibe, fantastic bombastic intro and a final touche into the PopNoire.
This is one of the best videoclip/song of this year!
The more I watch this the more I feel like it's a binding spell invoking the Fates (#3 represented, along with a weaver), all with the intention of unwinding and weaving a new fate from the one previously lived.
Delain, Within Temptation, Epica and now Shireen. Makes me so proud to be from the Netherlands!
I love this song & video, and can't stop watching this, is there something wrong with me? Or is it just me being "so human"?
Finally found this CD....
Prachtige tekst, dit is mijn favoriete nummer van Shireen! Het optreden op Castlefest was geweldig; jullie hebben er een fan bij.
This band is killing it along with many others. Share share share.
Beautiful glitter wanderlust feeling wrapped around such a story. I literally can't decide on an emotion. Thank you so much:)
I cannot say enough I have just discovered you and you have changed my life more than you will ever know my soul is so much stronger
Ah yes the new video is here. I noticed you promising it a few days ago.
Being very familiar with this song, which I love love love, it was amusing to see the artistic ideas that went into the video. Not what I was expecting.
It is a wonderful video. I am sure everyone had a blast designing the costumes.
I can't wait to hear your next project..Very talented person, beautiful voice, amazing lyrics and visionary effects.
absolute stunning, i adore this song and the video with all my heart
Love this song so much.
Shireen - Awesome as always. I cannot get enough of the song and the video. Keep doing what you are doing. Blessings
I feel like she sings from the perspective of a non-human who experiences the cruelty of human nature firsthand
..heh..
Wow...I like you...
You mean like from the perspective of a soul?
She probably knows her true self.
Loss of ego teaches so much.
@FlyingMonkies325 There is no right or wrong answer. Such is the beauty of art.
If you feel this way check out Omnia. Ithink the song is called 'I Don't Speak Human."
