M◐◑N palace

Billlie's 'M◐◑N palace' is a hauntingly beautiful exploration of the cyclical nature of time and the search for meaning within it. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a protagonist reaching out towards a faint memory, symbolized by the '희미한 널 향해 뻗어보는 손' (a hand reaching out towards a faint you). This imagery sets the tone for a journey through a foggy, repetitive landscape where the protagonist is constantly seeking answers to unanswerable questions.

The recurring motif of the ringing bell, 'Ring a ring ring,' serves as a metaphor for the persistent reminders of past events and the warnings that echo through time. The protagonist finds themselves trapped in a loop, '이 굴레 속 다블 찾아 걸어' (walking in this loop to find you), where days and spaces blend into one another, creating a sense of déjà vu and existential dread. The lyrics 'Keep walk in the fog, It's cruel' highlight the harsh reality of this endless search, emphasizing the emotional toll it takes.

The song also delves into themes of destiny and fate, questioning whether the protagonist's path is predetermined. The lines '짜여진 운명일까, 답 없는 이 질문' (Is it a predetermined fate, this question without an answer) reflect a deep existential inquiry. Despite the uncertainty and the cruelty of the journey, the protagonist is determined to keep moving forward, guided by the moonlight and the foggy path ahead. This relentless pursuit, even in the face of ambiguity, underscores the human desire for understanding and connection, making 'M◐◑N palace' a poignant reflection on the complexities of existence.
