about

Alex: This one is about parents, about us not being so good children to them, not appreciating them enough.

Matvey: All songs from the EP have been played live. Except Cowards. And from day one I knew I would want to have it as the last one on the album. Not because something is wrong with it, quite the opposite — to save it for dessert, for everyone to be amazed once more.

Boris: I didn’t have a full understanding of this song before recording, so the result is most surprising for me. I like how very different stylistic elements carry the same ceaseless feeling through the whole song.

Vlad: I see Cowards as the most even-tempered in its musical feel one out of all four. I specifically love the outro which I find the one of the sincerest moments of the album.



Лёша: Cowards это о родителях, и о том, как нам не удается быть лучшими детьми для них, достаточно ценить их.

Матвей: Мы играли на концертах все песни с EP, кроме Cowards. И на альбоме мне с самого начала хотелось поставить её последней. Не потому, что она какая-то не такая, наоборот — чтобы приберечь на сладкое, чтобы все ещё раз удивились.

Борис: Перед записью, из всех четырех песен, у меня было наименее целостное представление о Cowards, возможно поэтому она приятно удивила в итоге. Мне нравится, как совершенно разные стилистические элементы поддерживают одно летящее ощущение на протяжении всей песни.

Володя: Cowards — самая “земная”, самая невозмутимая по музыкальной интонации из всех четырёх. Я особенно люблю её заключительную часть, которая мне кажется одним из наиболее искренних моментов альбома.

lyrics

We are cowards
Shaming ourselves
We are definitely a burden
And our parents are saints

Our fathers are legends
We eager to impress
By an empty glass
Or less

I know you
I'm just like you
I'm tired of being fragile
Aren't you tired too

She wouldn’t ask you to give it
Your life is life to her
But wars don’t care about it
That is why she hates wars

For mothers we're killers
We answer the call
For mothers we fall

I know you
I'm just like you
I'm tired of being fragile
Aren't you tired too

What the hell we were thinking
Silent like stone
Now all stones are sinking
Could’ve just pick up the phone

Maybe now they’re not lonely
Dancing in the sand
How all the good stories end
