With the release of Serpentine two years later, the band would build on the work they did with Jade, adding a slightly more up tempo, less depressing sound. After the release of Serpentine, Stefanie Duchêne had to leave the band. Her pregnancy was incompatible with the high sights of the band. She is currently working on her solo career. Their current vocalist is Helen Vogt. With a sound similar to that of Serpentine, and Vogt's vocal similarities with Stefanie Duchêne's vocals, the band released their 5th studio album, Razorbliss.
On October 20, 2004, just seven months after the release of "Razorbliss", two founding members of Flowing Tears, Björn Lorson and Cristian Zimmer, died in a car accident.
Exactly 4 years after the accident, on October 20, 2008 they released their sixth studio album, titled Thy Kingdom Gone. It is a concept album containing 12 songs, along with artwork made by Seth Siro Anton, who is known for doing artwork with Moonspell, Soilwork, and Paradise Lost.

Unspoken
Flowing Tears Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Someone spoke of fear
Someone said the stars have cried
When someone shed a tear
Someone stole the smile I lost
And someone picked up fear
Someone caught the lines I wrote
Someone took away the sky
And someone lost belief
Someone set my world on fire
And the brightest spark is me
Will they come for me?
Will they set me free?
Someone said the sun has gone
Someone spoke of fear
Someone said the stars have cried
When someone shed a tear
Will they come for me?
Will they set me free?
Somewhere in the dark
Somewhere in the dark
Somewhere in the dark where we won't see
Will they come for me?
Will they run from me?
Will they come for me?
Will they set me free?
The lyrics of Flowing Tears’ song “Unspoken” depict emotions of sadness, fear, and loss. The song portrays the notions of someone or something being taken away from the singer, such as a smile, faith, and belief. The singer describes the feeling of being left alone in the “dark” where nobody can see them, as they wonder if anyone will come to their aid and set them free.
The first verse mentions the absence of the sun, and the shedding of tears, which could symbolize the end of something good or a loss. The second verse talks about the loss of the sky and the idea of someone setting the world on fire, which could represent feeling like someone has destroyed everything the singer held dear. The chorus then repeats the questions of whether or not help will come, and whether or not they will ever be free.
Overall, the song seems to convey a sense of hopelessness and uncertainty in times of grief and loss. The singer is left wondering if anyone will come to their rescue, or if they will be left alone in the darkness permanently.
