"Cynical Mind" is a song by Gundelach featuring AURORA. It was released worldwide as a single on March 13, 2020.[1] and on Gundelach's third album My Frail Body shortly after.[2]
About the song[]
Gundelach announced his collaboration with Aurora on the song on his social media, stating:
"I had a session with Aurora on Bergen and we immediately clicked. We wrote this song all about the cynical, cruel people of the world. We did all the writing in one day, but I spent over a year on the production with some help from my friends."[3]
Aurora and Gundelach had a recording session at songwriting camp Bergen Electronic in February 2018.[4] This was possibly the start of this song.
Lyrics[]
Love is a fog
Darkness is light
Blind me with your
Emotional lies
Cynical mind, cynical mind, love is not kind
Analysing every thought with poison
Cynical mind, cynical mind, love is not kind
Paralysing every sweet emotion
Cynical mind, cynical mind, love is not kind
Analysing every thought with poison
Cynical mind, cynical mind, love is not kind
Paralysing every sweet emotion
Connection is lost
Joy in our veins
Surviving the day
Till' reality fades
Cynical mind, cynical mind, love is not kind
Analysing every thought with poison
Cynical mind, cynical mind, love is not kind
Paralysing every sweet emotion
Cynical mind, cynical mind, love is not kind
Analysing every thought with poison
Cynical mind, cynical mind, love is not kind
Paralysing every sweet emotion
Can you feel me suffocating
Can you feel me suffocating (suffocating)
Can you feel me suffocating (suffocating)
Cynical mind, cynical mind, love is not kind
Analysing every thought with poison
Cynical mind, cynical mind, love is not kind
Paralysing every sweet emotion
Cynical mind, cynical mind, love is not kind
Analysing every thought with poison
Cynical mind, cynical mind, love is not kind
Paralysing every sweet emotion
