La chanson évoque le besoin de puiser dans son imagination pour trouver des raisons de continuer malgré une situation difficile. Elle parle de la douleur de la perte et du vide laissé par le départ d’un être cher, où l’ombre de cette absence pèse lourd dans le quotidien. Au milieu de l’obscurité et de la solitude, le protagoniste fait face à des souvenirs et à des émotions qui le paralysent, mais il cherche néanmoins à avancer. Le contexte semble être celui d'une rupture ou d'une perte significative, où l’auteur se débat avec des sentiments de tristesse et de désespoir, mais cherche une lueur d’espoir pour ne pas se laisser abattre. C'est une réflexion sur la manière de gérer les difficultés de la vie, en s'accrochant à des pensées positives même lorsque tout semble sombre.
