about

The first single, which will be released on 14.08.2020, tells the story of a late industrial city which has already had one or the other plastic surgery, it rains a lot and you shouldn't feel comfortable at all, but you do anyway. And that is also a good thing.

While the piece builds up slowly and ecstatically on a catchy drumbeat at first, only to get angrier and angrier at the end of this part, it becomes more unagitated and clearer at the end and hope is created: "I kind of feel at ease".

lyrics

A city in the warm rain, a city like a stain
All those plastic operations, but all plastic is in vain
Go stuff the ancient beauty and everything’s façade
This capitalist spirit, those shiny tales to tell
But everything is grey
Some things, the rain can’t wash away

Another fallen princess, atrificially maintained
Rattling behind a air mask and noone is to blame
And we are all to blame
Not me not you, we can’t escape
I know I lie into you face
It’s me, it’s you we should be brave
And tear the mask right off her face
And see, everything that she can be
Just another sacrifice
Just a town with empty eyes
So safe me from her lies

And there’s nothin romantic about shit weather
And nothin meaningful about piss in your doorway
And I don’t like strolling homeless and forgotten ones
Like it’s naturally inevitable
But there are other options available
And what the fuck are all these empty houses for
And I still love a mother’s care
I can’t deny I like it there
I must Admit I feel at ease, I feel at ease, I kind of feel at ease, I feel at ease
