6 foot - out now
On the song:
"6 foot was written during a stay at a clinic. At a time when everything felt so heavy, as if I were already buried "6 foot deep" underground. The song describes this struggle with myself. For me, writing this track served as an outlet to process the silence and isolation I experienced there. Although the song emerged from a dark period, today it stands as a symbol of strength for me; the very fact that I was able to release it showed me that creative expression can be a reason to keep going."
"The track '6 foot' by Lena Terhaar delves into the internal struggle of feeling trapped and wanting to break free from one's own limitations. The metaphor of being '6 foot deep and 6 foot tall' symbolizes feeling both buried and elevated by one's own fears and desires, highlighting the conflict between staying grounded and taking a leap of faith." - Musixmatch
