about
"Fäschtmol" is the first single from the second album, which To Athena is currently working on between Berlin and Lucerne. She ventures even deeper into her inner life, searching for reasons and abysses, which she distills in both English and Swiss German lyrics. "Fäschtmol" thematizes how we deal with our mental health. A feast only with oneself, and one's poisonous inner thoughts. There are enough of them to eat your fill forever.
lyrics
Cha mech ned bewege, es fählt mer es Bei
Ond ergendwie tueds nedmol weh
Weiss nömm wies passiert esch, die Amputation
Sit denn bliibi halt nor dehei
Ond ech wörd ja gärn ufstoh, doch d’Decki esch z’schwär
Ond osserdem esch do schön warm
Ond warm esch doch schön ond schön söll mer au bliibe
Das hed mer die Schiibe do gseid
Es Fäschtmol för mech elei
Elei muesch nie teile, s’heisst «All you can eat»
Es hed no vo allem drom griif nomol zue
Chli Trüebsenn zum Dessert, denn hesch weder Rueh
Es send alli do ond ech mach mol de Wii uf
Chom Zwifel ech schänk nomol ii
Die Chüechli vom Zwiispalt, die send werklech fein
Ond au d’Bowle vom Groll esch ned leid
Ond ech wörd ja gärn ufstoh, doch d’Decki esch z’schwär
Und osserdem esch do schön warm
Ond warm esch doch schön ond schön söll mer au bliibe
Das hed doch au s’Nani scho gseid
Es Fäschtmol för mech elei
Elei muesch nie teile, s’heisst «All you can eat»
Es hed no vo allem drom griif nomol zue
Chli Trüebsenn zum Dessert, denn hesch weder Rueh
Es Fäschtmol för mech elei
Elei muesch nie teile, s’heisst «All you can eat»
Es hed no vo allem drom griif nomol zue
Chli Trüebsenn zum Dessert, denn hesch weder Rueh
Elei, elei, elei, elei, elei, elei för mech
Elei, elei, elei, elei, elei, elei för mech
Elei, elei, elei, elei, elei, elei för mech
Elei, elei, elei, elei, elei, elei för mech
Elei, elei, elei, elei, elei, elei för mech
Elei, elei, elei, elei, elei, elei för mech
Oh es Fäschtmol för mech, elei, elei för mech
Es Fäschtmol för mech elei Elei muesch nie teile, s’heisst «All you can eat» Es hed no vo allem drom griif nomol zue Chli Trüebsenn zum Dessert, denn hesch weder Rueh
Chamber pop, melancholy, lyrics that directly reflect, that hurt. To Athena allows introspective and fragile gems in Swiss
German to exist alongside sparkling and cinematic pop in English on one and the same stage. The intensity is often found in the small and fragile. In the lyrics that reach out into the dark, but always allow for the light. Fragility, strength and the sounds in between....more
