about

Hopeless World is our try to deal with the Corona situation and what it has caused but also a wake-up call for society: We were left divided due to this difficult situation and disputes about different views. Wouldn’t our world be more peaceful and pleasant if we would try to understand each other and be empathic? Can’t we just try to reunite and make an impact through good deeds?

lyrics

The world as we know it
Doesn't exist anymore
Every day you hear it, read it
These fucking news are everywhere

A pandemic rules the world
Our life has changed
The society has divided
People are frustrated

Where does this lead to?
When is this over?

Life is not the same
It's so different now
Social contact is restricted
This is an unbearable state
A public I rarely exists
Can we still live like this?

Open your minds
Try to see behind
Be open to empathize

Together we want
To make an impact
It's our chance now

Hopeless world
So much is different
Hopeless world
Nothing remains as it was

Fear, pandemic, void
Domestic violence
People distance themselves
Economic crisis, poverty and more exists
Where do we live, in what a world?

At some point, the time
Will come to die
But don't be scared
Do good, live good
Open your mind
Use every hour
Fight your fear

The world as we know it
Doesn't exist anymore
Every day you hear it, read it
These fucking news are everywhere

A pandemic rules the world
Our life has changed
The society has divided
People are frustrated

Where does this lead to?
When is this over?

Life is not the same
It's so different now
Social contact is restricted
This is an unbearable state
A public I rarely exists
Can we still live like this?

Open your minds
Try to see behind
Be open to empathize

Together we want
To make an impact
It's your chance now
 
Hopeless world
So much is different
Hopeless world
Nothing remains as it was

Repulsive, repulsive, repulsive
This fucking sick world!
You can't be serious?
(3x)
We want our freedom back!

Stop it! Timeout!
(2x)
We have to stop it!
We can't any longer

We will feel the
(3x)
Consequence from this act

We will lose it all!
The time is coming

Hopeless World
(4x)

Fear, pandemic, void
Domestic violence
People distance themselves
Economic crisis, poverty and more exists
Where do we live?

about

Ophelia's Eye image

Ophelia's Eye Dulliken, Switzerland

Ophelia’s Eye is based on Olimpia’s Eyes from the novel “The Sandman” by E.T.A. Hofmann.

Toward the end of the story, Nathanel is enchanted by Olimpia and is desperate and driven by longing.

We, too, want to "enflame" the audience, bring them to life and cast a spell over them. Through our songs the listeners should also lose the connection to reality - at least for a while. ... more
