Inspired by Hank Willis Thomas’s bronze sculpture, “The Embrace”, which was installed on Boston Commons in Boston, Massachusetts, US last year. It depicts the four arms intertwined, symbolizing the hug that Dr. Martin Luther King and his wife, Coretta Scott King, shared after he was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 1964. I tried to imagine the emotions that Dr. King might have been feeling.

This is a rock ballad/love song. It's about a time of my life when I had a relationship with a woman who I loved very much. But I lied to her about a certain circumstance, and it almost took the relationship down. Needless to say it was a serious lie. They do say that the truth hurts, but I didn't want to tell her the truth, and lying was a bad idea. I had to do a lot to make up for it, but most of all I didn't want her to forsake me for the lie. All I wanted was for forgiveness.

A song for a love that's ended, in a quirky and unprecedented way -- comparing your former lover to the Emperor Julius Caesar.

In diesem Song geht es um den schmerzvollen Abschied von einem geliebten Menschen und die Gefühle und Fragen, mit denen wir zurückbleiben.

Der Song beschreibt das Wechselbad der Gefühle, wenn man verliebt ist und dann plötzlich und unerwartet verlassen wird.
