Lyrics & meaning
Beyond the translation
Overall song meaning
This soul-stirring song captures the disorienting, overwhelming feeling of falling deeply in love. The protagonist experiences an intense physical and emotional transformation, feeling as though their existing identity has shattered into a hundred pieces upon encountering their beloved. The lover's mere presence disrupts the protagonist's sense of time, making past and present blur while kindling a yearning for a shared future.
