The lyrics to «Etna»

The song tells the story of a character on the verge of breaking point, somewhere between dark irony and emotional overload. The chorus « shoot, just to see what happens » sums up this urge to take action, before the image of the overflowing vase in the outro.

[Pre-chorus]
Hey, the sun is shining in the sky
Those damn birds sing until evening
I'm known for letting everyone screw me over
And just like everyone else, you came over to my place
But you thought I wasn't the same anymore
When you saw my gun in the closet
That's right, Sherlock, I'm not the same person anymore.
I bought myself an iron

[Refrain]
And I'm going to fire it, just to see how it feels.
I'll fire, just to see how it feels (X2)
I'll fire just to see

[Verse 1]
I've seen that same sky so many times before
Tell me why it would be a special day
Lonely and not much to do
Might as well hang out in the mall
It's been a few hours already
I pretended to notice the blinds for the first time
The girl smiles at me on the poster
And I can hardly feel my head twisting anymore

[Bridge]
I'm not far from breaking point
But ask me whatever you want—you know I'm a yes-man.
You just have to think about making me smart
My pride and joy—my plasma TV, hey, hey, hey

[Pre-chorus]
Hey, the sun is shining in the sky
Those damn birds sing until evening
I'm known for letting everyone screw me over
And since everyone came over to my place
But you thought I wasn't even
When you saw my gun in the closet
Well, yeah, Sherlock, I'm not the same person anymore.
I bought myself an iron

[Refrain]
And I'm going to fire it, just to see how it feels.
I'll just fire it, see what it does (X2)
I'll fire just to see
Just to see

[Verse 2]
Keep smiling at me, you're going to get a prune
I don't know if I'm going to do it—that's what makes it so charming
I'm not satisfied with my life—I want to sleep with someone else
I want to regret it when it's too late; I want to have missed the boat
I never knew how to be "in," but screwing around came naturally—I didn't need a coach
Either way, you make me, I make you, and the universe finds its balance
Look at me—I was born with chains in my head; I just hope I leave this world a free man
As long as I leave him free
Provided that I

[Refrain]
Just fire it, just to see what it does (X11)
Just fire, fire, just to see

[Outro]
My friend, the vase is full
One drop and I'm drowning
Oh my friend, the vase is full
One drop and I'll drown you, drown
