Eternal Longing in the Cosmos: Paris Jackson's 'Cosmic'

Paris Jackson's song 'Cosmic' delves into the profound sense of longing and emotional turbulence that follows the absence of a loved one. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of nights growing colder and beds feeling wider, symbolizing the emptiness and loneliness that comes with separation. The repeated mention of hearts lying beside each other underscores the deep emotional connection that once existed, now replaced by a void.

The chorus, with its haunting plea 'Can you hear?', reflects a desperate attempt to reach out to the lost loved one, who seems to be drifting further into the darkness. This metaphorical darkness could represent emotional distance, loss, or even death. The craving inside the mind and the feeling of walking deaf and blind in the night highlight the confusion and disorientation that often accompany such profound loss. The cosmic theme suggests a love that transcends earthly bounds, hinting at a spiritual or eternal connection that persists despite physical separation.

The imagery of a 'black moon dawning' and 'phantoms appearing' adds a layer of haunting beauty to the song, evoking the idea of memories that linger and haunt the narrator. Despite the pain, there's a glimmer of hope as the narrator vows to hold on, believing in the cosmic bond that ties them together. The repeated plea to 'please wait' signifies a hope for reunion, whether in this life or beyond. Paris Jackson's ethereal vocals and the melancholic melody further amplify the song's emotional depth, making 'Cosmic' a poignant exploration of love, loss, and the enduring hope for reconnection.
