Concentrate
Franz is dead Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I've been trying hard to hold you back, baby to hold you back for more
but it seems it never satisfied, it never satisfied your love
Then you chose to never call me back, to never call me back for more
then you chose to never call me back, to never call me back at all

i wanna move to the country, i'm so tired of the city

When you're speaking i can't concentrate , i cant' concentrate at all
When you're thinking i can't concentrate, i cant' concentrate at all
Then you chose to never call me back, to never call me back for more
then you chose to never call me back, to never call me back at all

i wanna move to the country, i'm so tired of the city

Don't you know the futur shows a thing that has no name

Don't you know the morning shows we're crashing in a plane
an accident, and accident...

The desire to move to the country and escape the city signifies a longing for a fresh start and a new environment that might bring a sense of peace and contentment.

This could indicate a sense of distraction or preoccupation due to the unresolved issues in the relationship.


The lyrics also touch upon the theme of uncertainty and the fear of the unknown. The line "Don't you know the futur shows a thing that has no name" suggests a sense of ambiguity and unpredictability in the future. The following line about crashing in a plane implies a feeling of impending disaster or doom. It could be interpreted metaphorically, symbolizing the potential collapse of the relationship.


Overall, "Concentrate" portrays a relationship marked by dissatisfaction, lack of communication, and a yearning for change. The song explores the complexities of love and the struggles faced when trying to make a connection work.

Some of your pics are incorrect, the three men pic, none were Hossler and you had pics of Allied US troops.

@sherirobinson6867

At the one minute mark you showed Joseph Mengele as Hossler. That picture is so famous for 40 60 years that's a big mistake
