1) Sophia is a martial industrial act from Sweden. The band is the brainchild of Peter Bjärgö (born Peter Pettersson), also of Arcana. Using martial and heavy industrial rhythms, choral sections, neoclassical orcestration and dark ambient soundscapes, Sophia crafts a dark and oppressive soundscape of nihilism, bitterness and sorrow.
Sophia was first started in 1998 when Peter Bjärgö recorded plenty of songs as a side project to Arcana. Those songs were unfortunately destroyed and the thought of a harscher side project blossomed again in 2000. The first album was recorded with the intention of making songs for a live performance. Together with Per Åhlund, Peter Bjärgö performed a few live shows and in 2001 the first release came out, entitled "Aus Der Welt". In 2001 Ia Bjärgö, Peter's wife, joined the band and the jounrey moved on. With the albums "Herbstwerk", "Seduction of Madness", "Death,Dumb and Blind" along with" Spite", Sophia became one of the most well known and recognized underground industrial bands in the world. When Ia Bjärgö 2retired" from Sophia, Stefan Eriksson entered as a new co-worker to Peter. After the release of "Deconstruction of the World", which he also made together with Stefan Eriksson, Sophia was put torest for many years. It wasn't until 2010 when Peter joined forces again together with ia Bjärgö and Per Åhlund again. New songs are recorded, plans for a new album is at hand and a few live gigs have already been done. Welcome to the new era of SOPHIA.

2) Indie band Sophia includes The Flower Shop Recordings mainman and former The God Machine singer/guitarist Robin Proper-Sheppard. After the sudden and tragic death of schoolfriend and God Machine bassist Jimmy Fernandez, Proper-Sheppard began searching for a new musical outlet. Together with friends and fellow musicians from other Flower Shop bands Elevate, Ligament and Oil Seed Rape, Proper-Sheppard began working on the music that would become known as Sophia. Citing influences such as Neil Young, Uncle Tupelo and Sparklehorse, early albums Fixed Water (1996) and Infinite Circle (1998) were much more acoustic-based and given the circumstances understandably more melancholic than The God Machine while People Are Like Seasons (2004) and Technology Won't Save Us (2007) started to return to a more electrically dynamic and orchestrated sound. There Are No Goodbyes was released via The Flower Shop/City Slang in 2009.

Birds
Sophia Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
We won't let the clear skies fool us again'
Batten down the cellar doors and board up your homes
Listen to the wind as she creaks and she moans
Isn't it beautiful
Our lack of control
No prayers unanswered
Or wishes ignored
We're a day late for Spring
If we sneak in through April
We won't miss a thing
Isn't it beautiful
Our lack of control
No prayers unanswered or wishes ignored
Come on hurry up now
We're a day late for Spring
We can sneak in through April
We won't miss a thing
Sophia's song "Birds" is a beautiful and introspective piece that reflects on the beauty of unpredictability and lack of control in life. The lyrics are metaphorical and address the natural phenomenon of rain, making them relatable to everyone. The song starts with Farmer John's observation that it looks like it is going to rain, and he advises everyone to be prepared for the worst. Sophia highlights the beautiful and liberating aspect of this lack of control, urging everyone to embrace it instead of fearing it.
The lyrics "No prayers unanswered or wishes ignored" suggest that no matter how much we try to control our lives, some aspects are beyond our power, and that's okay. Instead of worrying and trying to control everything, we should enjoy the beauty and unpredictability of life. Sophia also points out that we shouldn't worry about missing out on the good things in life if we miss our chance because things always find a way of working out in the end.
One possible interpretation of the song is that it is a reflection on the current state of the world, especially in light of the COVID-19 pandemic, which has shaken the world's sense of control and predictability. The song could be a call to embrace the unpredictability and to find the beauty in the chaos, instead of worrying about what we cannot change.
