Far

In 'Far,' Vietra delves into the profound sense of longing and disconnection that many people experience. The song's lyrics paint a vivid picture of someone who feels distant from a significant presence in their life, whether it be a person, a sense of purpose, or even their own identity. The repetition of 'Far away, you are' emphasizes the emotional and physical distance that the narrator feels, highlighting a deep yearning for connection and understanding. This distance is not just geographical but also emotional, as the narrator waits for a voice to hum with, symbolizing a desire for harmony and companionship that seems out of reach.

The song also explores themes of personal struggle and despair. The narrator describes themselves as a 'loser' who is 'blind of desires,' indicating a period of confusion and lack of direction. This sense of being lost is compounded by feelings of hopelessness and the daily experience of being 'broken.' The lyrics 'Losing faith, losing mind, lost the path' encapsulate the narrator's internal turmoil and the ease with which they succumb to these negative emotions. However, there is a turning point when the narrator encounters someone or something that gives them a renewed sense of purpose, as indicated by the lines 'Till I know you, I didn’t know what to do.' This suggests that the presence of this significant other, even if distant, provides a glimmer of hope and a reason to keep going.

Vietra's use of metaphors and vivid imagery enhances the emotional depth of the song. The mention of 'sweets' tasting bitter and 'hands are tired' conveys a sense of disillusionment and exhaustion. Yet, the persistent longing to 'reach you, only you' underscores a relentless pursuit of connection and meaning. The song resonates with anyone who has ever felt isolated or disconnected, offering a poignant reflection on the human need for companionship and understanding. Through 'Far,' Vietra captures the essence of longing and the transformative power of connection, even when it seems far away.
