2) Janina is a 21-year old born in Germany. Her minimalist instrumentation is almost mandatory in such a prominent institution. Original lyrics and catchy musical tones Janina then sings "For the life of a friend", denounces the big city anonymity with "wrong questions" or postulates the grass as the last automatic failure of the affluent society. What should you do if "night at half past three" suddenly runs out and the Dope Dealer of trust has long evening? Whether in German or English, whether in a studio or live recording session. Janina pulls it all before, look carefully at their instrument to deal. But it does so with a noticeable song by song temperament, which simply captivates.

what you meant
when you told you miss
relevance&safetiness
swalloowed by

i feel gone

i feel gone
why do you hide in silence

Overall Meaning

In the lyrics of the song "Smooth" by Janina, the singer reflects on the bittersweet reality of being unemployed in terms of happiness. The opening lines refer to a conversation where someone mentioned missing a sense of relevance and safety. This leads to the realization that, when it comes to happiness, they are all unemployed, unable to find and possess it in a sustainable way. The themes of searching for meaning and struggling with identity are accentuated by the refrain "I feel gone" which speaks to an emotional emptiness that persists regardless of external circumstances.

The second half of the song shifts to a more general reflection on life's unpredictability. It speaks to the circular nature of events where things often come back around, and the futility of pretending that everything is okay when it's not. The lines "why do you hide in silence" suggest that there is a resistance to facing reality that only results in more internal turmoil. The overarching theme of the song is the human condition of constantly searching for something - relevance, safety, happiness, and meaning - without ever truly being able to hold on to it.
