Duality
Lyrics-Composition-Production, August 2025This song started off with two crazy ideas, “what if I compose with no meter but along a motif”, and, “what if I swtich its mood completely in its second half”?
Starting the first half of the song with serenity and coldness, the second half dives into a burning zeal. The lyrics was something I wrote in 2020, finally realized into music. Hope you enjoy it.
我向星星祈祷
Whispering my prayers to stars
我被黑暗包裹
I'm cloaked in darkness.
谁是祈祷的人
Who's the mortal/person praying?
谁是聆听的灯
Who's the lamp hearing?
黑暗之中
In darkness,
我看见一盏灯
I saw a lamp,
那是我的隐忍
It's my quiet temperance,
和恐惧
And terror
希望
And hope
灯光有断续的停歇
The light falters and sways
我向 神虔诚地祈祷
Devout prayers I gave to Divine
祈祷什么
Praying what
为了什么
For what
啊你是否明白
Oh do you see
你是否明白
Do you see
橘色的光
Amber glowing light
燃烧 的光
That burning glow
神的光
Divine light
是否我的光
Is it my lamp
还是神的眼
Be it Divine eyes?
还是你的眼
Be it your eyes?
