‘for a moment’ successfully tackle the emotive pop-ballad, showcasing flawless melodies
with an intimate vocal. Unfolding thoughtfully with gentle piano, ‘for a moment’ still
maintains Karin Ann’s intoxicating edge, its lyricism lamenting on feeling stuck in times
of struggle and pain - “what didn’t kill me never made me stronger, time doesn‘t heal anything
it just makes you forget”. Sweeping pads and soft electronic kick drums propel the song into
the chorus’ release, lyrically, there is also respite from her discomfort - “just for a moment
i’ll forget about everything”.

Karin Ann talks of the meaning behind ‘for a moment’:
“Writing it was kind of therapeutic for me, it’s about accepting the bad things you went though,
it’s about accepting that healing takes time and that it’s OK to not feel OK and it’s OK to feel
like something horrible you went through didn’t make you stronger but actually made life much more
difficult, it’s about accepting all that you went though and taking conscious steps towards healing.”.
