about

Ambient techno with minimalist phrases of high-pitched piano and heavy synth bass. The deep, whispering vocals are appealing. The meditative lyrics, depicting a scene of a solar eclipse and contemplating one's own death, rebirth and reincarnation, are distinctive features of the song. The long interlude in the middle of the song is an imaginary scene of the sun being hidden, sinking into depression and finally coming back to life, which is expressed by the changing sounds.

lyrics

I was sitting by the window
when I fell asleep
You tried to talk to me,
but I could not reply
What should I do
Under a solar eclipse?
Under the sun,
we’re depressed

I was keeping my eyes closed
to visualize
My inner speculation
ever growing on
Whoever told me
That my ego would burst?
Am I bound to collapse? Are you OK? I am dreaming of the future
when I shine again Even if you will not
believe my words Oh, don't you know? As time has never lapsed, The sun has never lapsed Remember Remember
Until another life
Remember
You’re just another life
Remember
