Lyric

I used to believe that fire existed only to destroy.

But the truth is,
fire is not an ending.

Beneath the ashes,
a small warmth remains-
an ember breathing quietly,
unnoticed by the world.

"EMBER" is not a song of mourning.

It is a song about the will to live
that survives after everything has burned away.

Bronze tones tremble through the night.

Layer upon layer of gamelan melodies.
Distorted guitars.
Rhythms beating against the earth.

It is a celebration.
A prayer.
A ritual for letting go of the person we used to be.

People break apart again and again.

Wounded by love.
Haunted by memory.
Searching for words that never come.

And yet,
we never disappear completely.

Deep within us,
something still glows.

Perhaps it is anger.
Perhaps it is hope.
Or perhaps it is a wish we never dared to reveal.

Before the dawn,

we gather around the fire and dance.

Again.

And again.

We are reborn.
