Sunset

(Erika Poling)

Two people who come off to the world as heartless, secretly understand each other's needs. Not getting attached or surrendering to one's feelings is a common attitude found in today's hook-up culture. But, many people have stronger emotions brooding beneath the surface they often fear to express. The lyrics mention two people who love each other, but prefer to keep their "private" life... well private. Hooking up turns into making love, and secretly we all desire affection.

Your voice dry as a bone Eyes are cold as a stone Filling me with an icy shiver And my blood grows thicker The tissue below my skin Starts hardening to porcelain And then I begin my Met-a-mor-pho-sis I’m frozen again As the sun fully sets But you have to guess Because I can’t tell you my secret Yes, Yes, Yes Through sex I must express How much I need your lips Warm my body, every inch I want to melt like a candle when it’s lit Heat my soul, set fire to my spirit Oh my god I’m sick of pretending I’m hard I secretly crave affection And I secretly know you are So why, why, why Did we decide to change our minds Cold-hearted love isn’t for us tonight You fit just like a glove It’s not winter inside Yes, Yes, Yes A desire I won’t suppress Ignite me with a kiss Because darling, you’re my sunset I need your lips Warm my body, every inch I want to melt like a candle when it’s lit Heat my soul, set fire to my spirit Oh my god I’m sick of pretending I’m hard I secretly crave affection And I secretly know you are So why, why, why Did we decide to change our minds Cold-hearted love isn’t for us tonight You fit just like a glove It’s not winter inside Oh, Oh, Oh It’s not snowing in here Ah. Ah, Ah Our love is now fire, my dear So why, why, why Did we decide to change our minds Cold-hearted love isn’t for us tonight You fit just like a glove It’s not winter inside

Ein Vorhang aus Glas

By Jana Breuling


Der Text beschreibt eine vorsichtige Begegnung mit dem Leben, die zunächst zaghaft erfolgt, geschützt, durch einen gläsernen Vorhang. Immer wieder gibt es Phasen im Leben, in denen man sich zurückzieht, in einen geschützten Bereich. Dass in solchen Phasen jedoch auch viel Einsamkeit und Stillstand besteht, ist die Kehrseite. Der Text soll ermuntern, den gläsernen Vorhang zu durchbrechen, etwas zu riskieren und ein Leben in Fülle zu führen.
