Days To Come (feat. Fiora)

Seven Lions' track 'Days To Come (feat. Fiora)' is a mesmerizing blend of electronic beats and ethereal vocals that delves into themes of anticipation, emotional healing, and the passage of time. The song opens with imagery of running against the wind, symbolizing the struggles and challenges one faces in life. The lyrics suggest that these difficulties will become easier to handle as time goes on, encouraging a sense of resilience and hope. The act of 'breathing it in' and 'falling gently' implies a surrender to the natural flow of life, accepting both the good and the bad as part of the journey.

The chorus speaks to the emotional shifts and the closeness of a significant other, even when they are not physically present. The lines 'I feel the shifting of you getting closer' and 'Quietly I keep you close to me' highlight a deep, almost spiritual connection that transcends physical boundaries. This connection is felt most strongly in dreams, where the barriers of reality are lifted, allowing for a pure, unfiltered experience of love and closeness. The repetition of 'quietly' emphasizes the subtle, yet profound nature of this bond.

As the song progresses, it touches on the concept of time and the future. The 'days to come' are filled with a sense of anticipation and hope, yet there is also a recognition of the transient nature of feelings, as expressed in the line 'I lose my feelings to oblivion.' This duality captures the essence of human experience—balancing the excitement of what lies ahead with the understanding that emotions are fleeting. Seven Lions and Fiora masterfully blend these themes with a hauntingly beautiful melody, creating a track that resonates on both an emotional and intellectual level.
