    Incredibly atmospherical. This is what a lot of contemporary art lacks and entertainment can never become. It's an experience beyond what the intellect can comprehend. Thoughts of the mind can never reach it. It touches the soul, and feels so profound that it hurts in a bueatiful way. It makes you feel so alive, and might be touching close to the realest state of being we can know. You are onto the highest form of art, Susanne.

    Susanne Sundfør remains a brilliant composer of sounds and turns in her music. Combine that with deep, meaningful lyrics and an angelic voice - this album is it.

    It is amazing that Susanne uses a quiet arrangement, "ordinary words" and the imagination is stimulated to the maximum and the message is extremely strong.

    [Verse 1]
    Leave all the silverware
    'Cause you won’t need it where
    You are going tonight
    [Verse 2]
    Dust on the china
    The spiders take over
    Without your gracious hands
    Chaos remains
    The clock the sole reminder
    [Verse 3]
    Leave this ghost town
    Before they burn it down
    Before they take the crown
    Before you hear the sound
    The buzzing of the drone
    [Verse 4]
    Verdict unanimous
    Dawn will turn to dust
    And the snow falls down
    Your footsteps on the ground
    Are lost in the silence
    [Verse 5]
    We will no longer fear
    Sirens and despair
    Our songs live on
    In the era of stone
    A red blinking Zion
    [Verse 6]
    Leave all that you were
    'Cause you won’t need it where
    You are going tonight

    Sadece kendi dilimde bir yorum yapmak istedim. Belki yıllar sonra Türkiyeden dinleyen insanlar olur. Belki yıllar sonra ben dönerim ve anarım. Söylemek istediğim şey. Susanne harika bir sanatçı. Çok kıymetli melodileri, güçlü sözleri ve dramatik bir sesi var. Umarım seninle bir gün tanışırım. Yalnız yolculuğumda yanımda istediğim tek ses olabilirsin.

  • @mmmaxxx__

    I believe what's in the beginning section is the storytelling of the people affected, knowing they were leaving everything behind because they were in immediate danger, and they didn't have time to think, so the song frames the situation retrospectively. It lets you look back to that moment of escaping for the first time, with the understanding that you didn't have time to think then, so this song lets you reflect on it now. Like grief.
    That soundscape bridge in the middle, are the military drones, so this song must be referring to the US bombings in the middle east.
    I believe the mood after the drones is one of survival. The lyrics in this section are "We will no longer fear sirens and despair". Whatever comes after this horrible tragedy, good or bad, it can't stop our unstoppable force to survive.
