Cette chanson évoque une rencontre marquante qui change tout. La personne raconte comment la présence de l'autre a révélé des vérités enfouies, même si cela a aussi réveillé des peurs et des blessures. Le protagoniste se sentait perdu, dans un état de souffrance presque palpable, mais cette connexion a ouvert des portes sur des émotions profondes, réveillant des sentiments longtemps étouffés. Dans le contexte, on peut ressentir l’influence des relations compliquées et des luttes internes. Il semble y avoir un contraste entre l'espoir que cette nouvelle rencontre suscite et les cicatrices du passé. Les références à la lumière et aux ténèbres soulignent ce conflit entre la découverte de soi et les douleurs anciennes qui refont surface.
