Elder

(Isaac Wragg)

Elder is a poetic perspective on a young person's connection to an older relative. The language is vague but very intentional, seeking to capture a sobering phase of life that's nigh-impossible to replicate once you leave it. The words encourage you to experience them slowly and consider what they're saying before they're gone--just like the kind, loving elders we all hopefully have in our own lives.

History in the Making

By Isaac Wragg


The year of 2020 was supposed to be big, full of potential, a time of improvement! What everyone received instead was large doses of isolation, uncertainty, and excessive quiet. History in the Making is about that time--doing as much as possible yet never enough, while contemplating the unique, historic nature of those days.

CELESTIAL

By Isaac Wragg


Romance is an over-done topic in songs today, but that doesn't mean it can't still be captivating or written about in a unique way. This song seeks to combine the vast beauty of space with the close beauty of love to create an image of something grand yet intimate. There is an interstellar feeling to finding 'the one', and CELESTIAL describes how expansive and humbling that is at the same time.

Plan

By Howard Aronson


This lyric is about me, and my inability to stick to a plan. I'm great at making plans, but I'm also good at diverting myself from that plan I think if you're going to do something like that you have to have another plan in place, and I rarely ever did today I try to live my life differently and if I make a plan I stick to it if it's not working I reassess make another plan and stick to that one I admire people who can stick to a plan and I think it's part of being a mature person.

In einer Welt, in der man quantitativ konsumiert

By Ann-Kathrin Betz


Dieser Songtext handelt von der heutigen Schnelllebigkeit und Oberflächlichkeit von Beziehungen anhand eines konkreten Beispiels. In der ersten Strophe beschreibt der*die Interpret*in die Entwicklung einer Romanze zwischen ihr*ihm und einem*einer guten Freund*in, welche sich über Monate schrittweise vollzogen hat bis es letztendlich zum Sex kam. In der zweiten Strophe wird beschrieben, dass der Sex nur dem*der Interpret*in*en etwas bedeutet hat und dem*der Freund*in nicht. In der Bridge wird beschrieben, wie der*die Interpret*in von Selbstzweifeln geplagt wird und sich selbst und ihren*seinen Selbstwert aufgrund dieser Zurückweisung hinterfragt. Der Refrain handelt davon, wie schön es ist, Anerkennung und echte Wertschätzung zu erhalten und insbesondere wie selten dies in dieser Welt, in der man quantitativ konsumiert, geschieht.
