Description
It's like being in a room where all the walls suddenly start moving inwards - slowly but surely. And you kind of know that outside there is light, space and someone with open arms, but for now you can only hear the echo of your own ‘ooh’. It's not about despair, but rather a stubborn desire to cling to what warms you, even if it has almost dissolved. The music gently tickles your longing, but doesn't finish you off - on the contrary, it reminds you that every emptiness has a flip side, and you can still break through to it.
Lyrics and translation
Original
Ooh
Ooh
I look around, it's an empty void
And I still just wanna be whole
I lose face when I face the world
If I ever need you'll never know
Just don't let the walls erase
How we used to talk and take our place
Oh please, please
I wanted to get back to the light in my life
My life, my life
Bless you, please
Before the walls will rise, let me in
Ooh, ooh-ah-ah
Ooh-ah-ah
Ooh-ah-ah
Ooh, ooh-ah-ah
Ooh-ah-ah
Ooh-ah-ah
Your open arms
Stretch wide across
It won't be long
Your open arms
Stretch wide across
It won't be long
