What Do You Believe In

Plunja's song 'What Do You Believe In' delves into the complex emotions surrounding loss, belief, and the search for meaning.

The opening lines, 'Unfortunately, you're what I'm looking for / Don't be scared, it won't hurt anymore,' suggest a bittersweet acceptance of the inevitable, hinting at the pain and resignation that accompany loss.

The recurring question, 'Tell me what do you believe in?' serves as the song's emotional anchor, reflecting the narrator's desperate need for understanding and connection.
