about

Although i wrote the lyrics in the appropriate amount of about thirtysomething different languages, Björn didn't deem it fitting for Maladie back in the days (must have been around the year 2013). So I wrote an english version and recorded an early demo in 2014.

We also tried to translate it into German for using the song with the former Blindflug band, but it didn't fit into there as well.

Therefore this track is a perfect candidate for my series called "Kreative Überreste" or "creative remains" - songs which never quite fit into a particular project but which I deem too good to just get lost on one of my archive hard drives.

lyrics

---------------
Seelenwinter
---------------

spring tries to tease me,
but for now I am winter.
need to gather new strength
before I reign again.

beyond recognition
lies the soul of the future
backing down into
the darkness of myself

waiting for deliverance
the golden rule is perseverance
to rise again
to shine again
at least for another day

bright wheel is piercing
like a thorn through my skin
ambushed by hate
blood is sealing my fate
taking my bows
in the winter of souls
