SS eventually caught the attention of record labels, and in 2004, their 1st international debut, "Premeditated", was released on Sector 9 Studios (US) and Out of Line (Europe). To promote the release, SS departed for an extensive North American tour with Imperative Reaction. In November of 2004, SS took their act to Germany to perform at a series of "Out of Line Electro Festivals" with Hocico, Icon of Coil, God Module and Spetsnaz.
In 2005 SS moved to Metropolis Records, to release their next album, "Postscript", showcasing the band's knack for writing some of the most emotional electronic music in the genre. After following the release of "Postscript" with a US tour, SS is once again back in the studio working on more music to satisfy their ever-growing fan base.

Just Once
System Syn Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Just so I can know I have it
Or do I really want to be your everything
And what do you think I want from you
Did you mistake me for the human animal
I am only looking for a kiss
Just enough to know that you know how I feel
For you
I will be your everything
I will fight for your affection
Just to know I have it
Just to be your everything
So just once
Give me one kiss
The song "Just Once" by System Syn is a poignant reflection on the complexity of human relationships. The lyrics express a sense of uncertainty and self-doubt, as the singer questions whether their desire for affection is genuine or simply motivated by a need for validation. The opening lines, "Do I fight for your affection just so I can know I have it," suggest a fear of rejection and a desire for security in the relationship. However, the following lines reveal a deeper emotional connection, with the singer expressing a desire to be someone's "everything."
The song also touches on themes of vulnerability and the fear of being misunderstood. The line "Did you mistake me for the human animal" suggests a fear of being reduced to mere physical desire, rather than being recognized for one's true emotions and intentions. The chorus reflects a sense of urgency and a desire for validation, as the singer pleads for "just one kiss" to confirm their feelings for the other person. Overall, "Just Once" is a powerful meditation on human connection, insecurity, and the complexity of desire.

A little late, but I love the song and video.
As a long time fan and out of curiosity, is there any chance weโll ever get a re-release of โFor Memories Youโll Never Haveโ, or any of the older stuff?
Anyway, thank you for creating awesome art!
