Lyrics:
There’s so much in the rearview
Hard to see what’s going on
It hasn’t been this blurry before
Something feels wrong

Where do I go?
Who do I follow?
Who bring me joy?
Who bring me sorrow?
How do I make sure I don’t go through this again?

Glued myself together
So that you can’t see
That I don’t know any boundaries
Impossible to read

Do I even know the way?
I need space so I can make mistakes
Confidence will be my best revenge
So I can start to live again

CW: Sexual assault

Milena: “I was raped at the tender age of nineteen by someone I trusted and had fallen in love with. It shaped me a lot. Especially the shame that comes with such trauma.

I’ve ignored my trauma for many years. It was easier to pretend it had not happened at all, than to accept it. In the silence of lockdown there was no escaping it. To relieve myself from all this I started writing this piece of music, together with Thomas and our fellow band members Igor, Jaka, Danielle and Vincent. What came out was this piece of music about my personal experience with sexual assault called ‘This Shame Should Not Be Mine’.

I carry my past experiences around in my body. My emotional pain and tension worn as armor. Szilveszter Makó translated this idea into this beautiful cover artwork.”
