Influenced by Namika, Erykah Badu, Stromae, Nura. Leya Zahiri was raised in a Frankfurt apartment that smelled of her Moroccan father's tagine and was decorated with her German mother's Bauhaus prints. At 17, a diagnosis changed the map of her life, and she began writing songs on a vintage Wurlitzer—her body’s secrets becoming her lyrics. With her partner Leo, a physiotherapist who helps her navigate the realities of life with a chronic illness, she creates a defiant, joyful Afro-German pop that finds its rhythm in the space between two cultures and the strength in fragility.

Lyrics

[Chorus]
Du biegst meinen Kupferdraht
Jeder Millimeter Verrat
Und ich hasse dich sanft dafür
Dass du mein Gerüst wieder baust

[Verse 1]
Dienstag, halb vier, auf der blauen Liege
Der kalte Gummi vom Band auf der Haut
Meine Scharniere quietschen leise Siege
Bis das Störgeräusch die Stille klaut

[Verse 2]
„Noch drei“, sagst du, deine Stimme ganz ruhig
Ich zähl die Flecken an der Decke ab
Ein Kurzschluss, der durch alle Kabel funkt
Und jeder Atemzug ist viel zu knapp

[Chorus]
Du biegst meinen Kupferdraht
Jeder Millimeter Verrat
Und ich hasse dich sanft dafür
Dass du mein Gerüst wieder baust

[Bridge]
Und später, wenn die Nana-Minze dampft
Im Glas von Essaouira, letztes Jahr
Vergess' ich fast den zähen, leisen Kampf
Und wie zerbrechlich alles gestern war

[Chorus]
Du biegst meinen Kupferdraht
Jeder Millimeter Verrat
Und ich hasse dich sanft dafür
Dass du mein Gerüst wieder baust

[Outro]
Mein Kupferdraht…
Biegst ihn nochmal.
