Lyrics & meaning
Beyond the translation
Overall song meaning
This introspective song explores themes of personal transformation, loneliness, and emotional resilience. The speaker reflects on how a collective 'we' has disintegrated into an isolated 'I', forcing them to become strong and self-reliant. As life's journey takes unexpected detours and brings fatigue, new opportunities and directions unexpectedly open up. The imagery of ocean waves endlessly falling and rising, and tears that inevitably trickle down despite attempts to conceal them, symbolizes the unstoppable flow of time, sorrow, and human perseverance.
