Melodies Lyrics English Translation by Halley
HALLEY describes holding back words that mattered, admitting ‘I was the reason we have come to the end of our seasons.’ The song uses music as healing, comparing inner turmoil to exploding emotions within a melody. She recalls shared time and failed communication, focusing on hushed truths and unmet needs.
