about
My first original recording at the age of thirty-five! I started writing songs, including this one, about ten years ago but I never recorded any.
This began life as a love song called Siren. Earlier this year, I randomly decided to re-write the lyrics and it developed a more universal message that was more about the kind of love that our soul (or higher self) has for us if we listen for it.
My soul really spoke to me when I wrote this. I finished the lyrics on the beach - the waves made me think about letting go and learning to ride the waves of your mind, instead of being so afraid of drowning that you sink anyway, moving towards your true self and trusting that you CAN swim, even if you don't quite know how.
This is a song that I wrote for myself and not for approval or airplay. Having said that, I'm finding it's resonating with people already so I hope you enjoy it, but either way I would love to hear what you took from it because each listener is different. Remember to Share my Bandcamp link, and look out for the next track!

lyrics
The Voice of Your Soul - Em Fraser
I know you've been lost for many a year
I know you've been tossed in a tempest of tears
I know you've been hurt and I feel your pain
I know how you've yearned to feel human again
So come closer, come closer, come closer
Hear my song
Fear no wrong
Brave the sea
Come to me
The pull of your past is hard to resist
The current of fear, all the boats that you missed
You're lost in your thinking
You tell yourself you're content
But your vessel is sinking
While you weep and lament
But come closer, come closer, come closer
I want you to
Hear my song
Fear no wrong
Brave the sea
Come to me
Do you know?
I'm the Voice of Your Soul
The distant crash of your dreams
I'm your lighthouse of love and I just need to you see me
First you must trust yourself
Open your eye
Look up to the sky
And swim free
Life is energy
Still looking at me?
You're wondering why
Afraid you can see yourself in my eyes
Forget everything
That's my only request
And just let me sing
And just get some rest
So come closer, come closer, come closer
I need you to
Hear my song
Fear no wrong
Brave the sea
Come to me
Hear my song
Fear no wrong
Brave the sea
Come to me
Come to me

This beautiful lady showed up first in my fan account when I chose my favourite genres and it was like Bandcamp answered my prayers! Gorgeous voice, lyrics and music, in tune with nature and spirit. Em Fraser
Amazing local Americana band. Five multi-instrumentalists with a great blend of male/female voices and heartfelt lyrics. That's Life always makes me smile, both for the ballads and the toe-tappers ;) Em Fraser
Dave Arcari is a force of nature who MUST be seen live at least once, but his passion and humour emanates from this album. Just does something to your soul, listening to this Loch Lomond blues legend! Em Fraser
Recorded over the space of a year, the vivid pop songs on the latest from themme fatale match sugary hooks with diaristic lyrics. Bandcamp New & Notable Jun 13, 2022
