about

A hesitant mood and carefully chosen words characterize this track. Fragile like a newborn bird before its first flight, it speaks of mourning, forgiveness and inner and outer walls. However, just as every hesitation eventually dissipates, this bird also prepares to take flight and explodes into a breathtaking wall of guitars.

With "Walls," Evelinn Trouble releases the fourth song of her serial project "Season Indicators": every six weeks, a gem from her seemingly inexhaustible song archive emerges. According to her own statement, the aim is to create a vacuum for new things. After all, Evelinn Trouble has been around for almost 17 years, and quite a bit of material can accumulate in that time. And in February 2024, she will play the «Season Indicators» live on a national tour with her infamous All-Finta* Band and a trio of string players.

lyrics

You oughta cross over, you know
The world is against you from where you’re standing
Chopping the hand giving food to the soul
Poor little baby

All the times you said no
And you didn't know why
All the times you said no
Without knowing you did
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
That's walls

Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
That's walls

You oughta forgive me, you know
City life don’t leave enough time for grieving
The souls are in tow and we all just keep leaving
Where is your black veils?
I just don’t believe it

All the times you said no
And you didn’t know why
All the times you said no
Just to stay in control
All the times you said no
Just to say something

Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
That's walls

Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
That's walls

Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
That's walls
Walls
Walls
Walls

You're building a fortress
Soon all your own forces
Will come sliding right back at you
From those walls

At first you don't feel it
But you're growing secret
Makes you lonely
And tied in those walls

Walls
Walls
Walls
Walls

(Walls)
