First for FAWM this year. English this time...
A thought got caught in the undertow and
a dream was buried today
she was wearing the white dress as she was supposed
to wear on her wedding day
and tears roll down her cheek as she tries to remember
all the lines on his face
but she never will forget the smile that he gave her
as he finally fades
isn't it sad?
Terminal action
the final straw
she stares at her reflection in the water
her demons are calling her
she will not give in
but she already put one foot into the water
A thought got caught in the undertow and
a dream was buried today
she was wearing the white dress as she was supposed
to wear on her wedding day
and tears roll down her cheek as she tries to remember
all the lines on his face
but she never will forget the smile that he gave her
as he finally fades
isn't it sad?
Down by the river
close to the bridge
you can see her pale face in the moonlight
she sees her reflection
it is starting to grind
cold hands are dragging her under the water
A thought got caught in the undertow and
a dream was buried today
she was wearing the white dress as she was supposed
to wear on her wedding day
and tears roll down her cheek as she tries to remember
all the lines on his face
but she never will forget the smile that he gave her
as he finally fades
isn't it sad?

Dark und stark. "A thought got caught in the undertow / and
a dream was buried today / she was wearing the white dress as she was supposed
" — man kann sofort die Geschichte erahnen, grandios!

What a dark opening and lyrics. Those machine drums are just awesome. Feels like a futuristic factory. But I hear “the cure” in this as well. Awesome EM chops!!! Great tune

Oh man these lyrics are powerful! It paints a really vivid picture, quite chilling!

What an immersive atmosphere ! Love the sound texture, and the voice processing you used. Fits in perfectly :)
Also, the synth coming in around 1:30 is perfect !

Isn’t it sad? Yes, indeed. Und ein Hörvergnügen. Der 6/8 Beat ist cool und die Vocals fließen schön drumrum, mit ein paar interessanten überraschenden Phrasierungen („water“)

Previous comment "sonically captivating" captures my feelings perfectly. That soundworld you create here fits perfectly my taste for this style of music. If the rest of your songs are like this, I'm definately going to like them all.
Also, thanks for the laughtrack ;)

Sonically captivating.

I love the beat you have going on, and the contrast between the low vocal notes with the high notes synth/ choir (?) at the background during the chorus!

Ich LIEBE diese lyrics, super ausdrucksstark, das ganze Arrangement. Wirklich gelungen! Weiß garnicht, warum ich dich nicht auf der watchlist hatte, erinnere viele deiner Songs. Jetzt aber!

This rolls along nicely. The beats popping above the delicate synths work really well and sounds well produced and modern. Cool vocal effects and the lyrics add really well to the song. Great track.
