Monoko This song gives a great insight into what people like me struggle with. The constant search for an end, an ultimate quest of life, a path or a meaning.

In reality we already accomplish so much with what we do, but compared to the world out there our accomplishments feels next to
irrelevant while locally we found some true fans who our music speaks to, who speak through our music, yet it feels like it's just not enough.

But as the song says: "Maybe it's all in our head." 😉👍

Keziah Roether This song exposes feelings of finality and vulnerability in a sound that is so expertly performed - WHSPRS is a force to be reckoned with. Favorite track: Night In The Woods.

about

Instead of finding peace and enlightenment, I found the darkest nights I'd ever seen with the most frightening sounds coming from the woods at night (no Slenderman present because he already fled the scene out of fear). I spent 3 days alone (+ whiskey) in the middle of nowhere in a cottage in the woods in order to answer some questions for myself: "What do I want to do with my life? Where will I be in 26 years?". I wasn't planning on writing a song, but amidst the weird noises and the solitude this kinda happened.

"Night In The Woods" is about feeling stuck and being anxious about your deathbed regrets.

lyrics

I got 60 years to make it all happen
And I can't even pay electricity bills
Got another 10 years to feel young again
So I'm sleeping around and I'm swallowing pills

My head is a mess
My head is a mess

I watch cars go by on the motorway station
I watch life go by on a videotape
Spent a night in the woods to find direction
But I don't know where to go
I don't know where to go oh oh

The mall closed down and my friends all left
The pine trees sway and I hate myself
Keep dreaming of the apocalypse
The internet says it means I'm scared

My head is a mess

I watch cars go by on the motorway station
I watch life go by on a videotape
Spent a night in the woods to find direction
But I don't know where to go
I don't know where to go oh oh

And maybe it's all in my head, all in my head, all in my head
I'll never be anyone
And I'll never be anywhere but here
Oh, maybe it's all in my head, all in my head, all in my head
I'll never be anyone
And I'll never be anywhere but here

I watch cars go by on the motorway station
I watch life go by on a videotape
Spent a night in the woods to find direction
But I don't know where to go
I don't know where to go oh oh

Maybe it's all in my head, all in my head, all in my head
I'll never be anyone
And I'll never be anywhere but here
Oh, maybe it's all in my head, all in my head, all in my head
I'll never be anyone
And I'll never be anywhere but here

I'll never be anywhere but here
