Inspired by the epic, narrative rock of artists like Roger Waters, this track uses a sprawling, unconventional song structure as a canvas for a profoundly personal and true story: the story of Taavi.

It’s a journey that begins not with joy, but with fear. The story of two people, Fabien and Isabella, thrown into a storm of uncertainty after knowing each other for only half a year. Faced with shattered life plans and the most difficult choice imaginable, they wrestled with opinions, doubts, and the immense weight of a life hanging in the balance.

The struggle continued through a harrowing 48-hour birth in Kassel, a testament to a mother's strength, ending in the cold, clinical light of an operating room. But out of this trial, a new world was born. This song is about that very moment. About the surreal contrast between chaos and peace, between despair and an overwhelming love. It's a raw, lyrical tribute to choosing life when it's hardest, and to the small, perfect boy who arrived and turned everything upside down—making his parents crazy, happy, and completely in love.

This is the narrative of being brought back to life.


Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Darling, darling
What is wrong with us?
The life that we had planned
Is now all gone

[Chorus]
What is the new life
Of a child that never was?
What is the shelf life
Of two strangers' love?

[Chorus]
Fabien, a man
Bella, girl

[Verse 2]
The fear, it crept right in
When our plans fell down
We latched onto that vision of destruction
Attracted by
The peeling away of feeling
The great divide
Of the unborn child
The choice

[Chorus]
Fabien, a man
Bella, girl

[Chorus]
Fabien, a man
Bella, girl

[Verse 3]
And the hours, they passed on by
For two days
The final decision
Was not enough
And there in the bright room
Warm and clean
The little one cries and breaks the screen
No thoughts to think
No tears to cry
All sun-dried
Down to the very last breath

[Chorus]
But then what was so wrong with us?
Why are we so out of touch?
The heart then said
Excuse me friend
This little one has
Brought us back to life

[Chorus]
Brought us back to life
This child has brought us back to life
Brought us back to life

[Bridge]
We watched
Tragedy unfold
We did as we were told, body and soul
It was the hardest choice on Earth
But then it was over
We, you and I, we let our old plans go
We let our last few jars of worries go
And somewhere out there in the stars
A brand new life would start
Five, four, three, two, one
A life begun
A life begun

[Outro]
This little child has brought them back to life
Brought them back to life
No tears to cry
No fear inside
This little child has brought them back to life
Brought them back to life


When I saw Taavi's name
On the small card at the hospital in Kassel

Brought back to life

When I saw his name, I was absolutely transfixed

There he was, finally here

He was now a human being instead of some sort of

Nightmarish memory of the choice I almost made

Back then

Brought back to life

I felt relieved and ever since then I've felt happier about it
Because always before
Whenever I thought of him

I was torturing myself

Was there something else that I could have done?

Look at me, look at me, I'd rather live
I'd rather live with you

Always sort of worried me

And having seen him
And his name in the register, you know in the hospital there's a roll

Say there's a register in there with every

Back To Life
