Im Oktober 2015 stellten Schmieds Puls mit I care a little less about everything now ihr zweites Album vor. Inhaltlich wie auch musikalisch eine Weiterführung des reduzierten Klangs ihres ersten Albums, kamen darauf auch Mittel aus der elektronischen Musik zum Einsatz, die Kovacs neben ihrem auf Gesang und Gitarre konzentrierten Songwriting schon länger interessierten.
Die Band trat bislang vor allem in Österreich sowie in Deutschland, Frankreich, Tschechien und Schweiz auf. Im Jahr 2016 gewann Schmieds Puls den FM4 Award, einen Publikumspreis, der im Rahmen des Amadeus Austrian Music Awards verliehen wird.
I Care a Little Less About Everything Now
Schmieds Puls Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
This is the last song of many hundred songs
You've been first and last
There was only so much to give
When the indicator drops,
standing for capacity
Creature with a heart, insulting humanity
How little I care for you now
How could I be so wasteful?
I wasted it all on you
How many people could I have loved?
And you don't even count it.
It was never about having you
It was never about losing you
You're like water and I'm like a leaking bowl.
And now it's gone
And it shouldn't be back
I'm just a little less alive
Sorry future lover, I won't love you back
Sorry future baby, I won't give you that
Sorry future sister, I just won't be that sorry
Sorry future lover, I won't love you back
Sorry future baby, I won't give you that
Sorry future sister, I just won't be that sorry
Sorry future lover, I won't love you back
Sorry future baby, I won't give you that
Sorry future sister, I just won't be that sorry
Sorry future lover
Sorry future baby,
Sorry future sister, I just won't be that sorry
In "I Care a Little Less About Everything Now" by Schmieds Puls, the singer reflects on a past relationship and the emotional toll it has taken on her. The opening lines convey surprise and regret at the situation - this song was unexpected, and it marks the end of a long journey. The singer acknowledges that the relationship took a lot out of her, and suggests that there was a limited amount of emotional energy she could give before the "indicator drops." From this point on, the singer adopts a more critical tone, describing her former partner as a "creature with a heart, insulting humanity." She has lost her empathy for this person and for people in general, as expressed in the chorus: "How little I care for you now / In fact I care a little less about everything now."
The middle section of the song is particularly introspective. The singer questions her own choices - "How could I be so wasteful? / I wasted it all on you" - and considers how things might have been different if she had loved other people instead. However, she ultimately concludes that the relationship was not really about this one person, but rather "about losing" in general. This brings us to the final lines of the song, which are addressed to hypothetical future partners and children. The singer apologizes in advance for not being able to love as fully as before: "I'm just a little less alive / Sorry future lover, I won't love you back / Sorry future baby, I won't give you that / Sorry future sister, I just won't be that sorry." This suggests a sense of resignation, as if the singer has accepted that her experiences have changed her and that she cannot easily or fully recover from them.

This is the last thing I would have expected
I never thought I would be at this point
This is the last song of many hundred songs
This is the end of a long journey
You've been first and last
You were my everything, but now you’re nothing
There was only so much to give
I gave you all I had
When the indicator drops, standing for capacity
When there’s nothing left to give
Creature with a heart, insulting humanity
How you broke my heart
How little I care for you now
I don’t care about you as much as I used to
In fact I care a little less about everything now
I’m not as invested in things as I used to be
How could I be so wasteful?
I can’t believe I wasted so much time on you
I wasted it all on you
I gave you everything but got nothing back
How many people could I have loved?
If I hadn't been with you, how many other people could I have loved?
And you don't even count it.
It was all for nothing
It was never about having you
Having you was never the end goal
It was never about losing you
Losing you is not a great loss to me
You're like water and I'm like a leaking bowl.
I can’t keep you, you slipped away
And now it's gone
It’s all over now
And it shouldn't be back
I don't want it to come back
I'm just a little less alive
I'm feeling less alive because of it
Sorry future lover, I won't love you back
I'm afraid to love again
Sorry future baby, I won't give you that
I don't know if I can be a parent with this heartache
Sorry future sister, I just won't be that sorry
I'm sorry, but I can't apologize for not being able to move on
Sorry future lover
I'm sorry to whoever falls in love with me next
Sorry future baby,
I'm sorry to my future child
Sorry future sister, I just won't be that sorry
I'm sorry, but I can't keep apologizing for not being able to forget
