Their music has always been lively and full of innovation, that makes Minerve unique. They live their music and want to experience it with their fans. Always openminded for new impressions, they don´t feel like belonging to any scene or any special style of music, but want to broaden their minds and want to capture new worlds. Surely they are a contrast to the common rock music, but with their performance and their professional drummer Minerve appear as a serious rocking live band. Especially for that reason Minerve supported either bands like The Crüxshadows, Iris, Psyche, Spektralized, Lowe or were a part of mass events like the Night of Fights, Party for the Masses or Pluswelt Festival where they could show all of their qualities in front of hundreds of fans.
In 2005 the band was also nominated for the "Deutscher Rock & Pop Preis" in the category "best electronic pop act" and reached the third position at this mainstream event.
After releasing of "My universe" in 2006 the band entered the German Alternative Charts at the 16th position and some other charts or playlists worldwide. Their newest album "Sensefiction" shows once again that Minerve is a pearl within the sea of music, that is worth discovery...
Clear
Minerve Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You fake the time
Every chance you had
Has your mind
Endless cold
To sleep alone
Because your heart
Oh I wish
You couldnt toy
The way the way
You did before
Oh is it me
Who cannot see
The face of
Mediocrity
I feel heartache in my breast
I feel heartache in my soul
Another year to lie and the days goes by
Cause it doesn't feel alright
And I'm always be very tired
The dream of you and me this end is clear
You're not sick
So you can heal
But I wonder
Do you feel
The need to cry
I'm out of fear
Your living proof
Another year
The lyrics of Minerve's song "Clear" is a melancholic expression of the pain that one experiences after years of emotional and mental abuse by their lover. The singer expresses how time is being faked by their lover, who constantly messes with their mind, causing endless coldness and loneliness in their life. The singer wishes that their lover could stop playing with their emotions as they did before. However, the realization that their relationship is beyond repair leaves them with a heartache in their breast and soul.
The singer shares their feeling of exhaustion and being tired of the situation. They express how they continue to lie to themselves, but the end is clear, and the dream of them being together is over. The last stanza emphasizes the detachment between the two partners by implying that the other party might not even be sick and capable of healing, but there is no indication that they feel the need to change or apologize.
Line by Line Meaning
Years go by
Time has passed
You fake the time
You pretend to be okay with the passing time
Every chance you had
Every opportunity you had to change things
Has your mind
Has been in your head, affecting your thoughts
Endless cold
Feeling alone and cold
To sleep alone
To go to bed alone
Because your heart
Due to your emotional state
Is like a stone
Is hard and unfeeling
Oh I wish
I hope
You couldnt toy
You wouldn't play with my emotions
The way the way
Like you did before
Oh is it me
Am I the one to blame?
Who cannot see
Who is unable to recognize
The face of
The true nature of
Mediocrity
Being average or ordinary
I feel heartache in my breast
I feel emotional pain in my chest
I feel heartache in my soul
I feel emotional pain inside
Another year to lie and the days goes by
Another year to pretend and the days keep passing
Cause it doesn't feel alright
Because it doesn't feel okay
And I'm always be very tired
And I am always very tired
The dream of you and me this end is clear
The possibility of us being together is not going to happen
You're not sick
You are not physically ill
So you can heal
So you can emotionally recover
But I wonder
I question
Do you feel
Do you experience
The need to cry
The urge to release your emotions
I'm out of fear
I am no longer afraid
Your living proof
Your existence is proof of something
Another year
Another year of waiting
