NNN Lyrics Translation – Sawa Angstrom
Sawa Angstrom, the songwriter, tells a story of waiting in a thick fog, pointing to a faint light he chases. He jots down, ‘A faint light I can see, I’m chasing it,’ which translates to ‘I follow a dim glow, hoping to find my way.’ He mentions bicycles pedaling through city streets, showing movement despite confusion. He asks the audience to open eyes and accept uncertainty.
