Description
It sounds like a whisper from another universe - as if someone is singing in the mist above the sea, and the waves echo back. The voice trembles between supplication and magic, like a spell that doesn't believe it will work. Here, they are not just calling someone - they are calling across distance, fate, and the sound of water. As if the heart were a radar, and somewhere out there is a point that must respond, otherwise the whole meaning will be lost. Mysticism, despair and a touch of theatre - in the spirit of an ancient myth, only now instead of a harp there is synthwave and the muffled rhythm of the heart.

Lyrics and translation
Original
If I sing a siren song, would you still pull towards the light?
Can you hear me calling?
I know you're somewhere.
I need to reach you.
It's a desperate situation.
Falling on my knees.
Falling on my knees.
It's echoing for miles.
I'm in a trance.
I think about you every day.
Can you hear me calling?
I know you're somewhere.
I need to reach you.
It's a desperate situation.
Can you hear me calling?
I know you're somewhere.
Drowning in the sound of Orpheus's song.
Across the water blue, he's captivated you.
I'm falling on my knees.
Falling on my knees.
Can you hear me calling?
I know you're somewhere.
I need to reach you.
It's a desperate situation.
Can you hear me calling?
I know you're somewhere.
I'll never stop searching, 'cause I know you're out there.
