Monolith
Meganeko Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Eyes closed
Time slows
Dive, flow
The opening lines of Meganeko's song Monolith provide a vivid image of someone diving deep into the unknown with no fear whatsoever. The lyrics suggest the idea of taking risks, diving headfirst into an adventure regardless of the hazards it might entail. The reference to having one's eyes closed leads to the interpretation that the subject has complete trust in their instincts, showing an aptitude for intuitive decision-making. The words "time slows" evoke the slow-motion effect that one might experience when undertaking a big leap, lending the overall feel of the song a weighty, contemplative tone.
The chorus of the song takes the listener through a trip full of emotions and sensory experiences that trace the venture into the great unknown. A monolith is typically defined as a large stone structure, usually with symbolic or historical significance, but the title "Monolith" suggests an imposing entity that is both insurmountable and ambiguous. The lyrics indicate a fascination and sense of awe with the forbidden and unreached, and the simple-yet-powerful synth sounds that dominate the instrumentals highlight the serenity and elevation of the monolith to this otherworldly, towering presence that they might approach, but never quite touch.

This sounds so magically good. And it's extremely refreshing as well, it's like... it feels like your style but with a complete new dimension added to it and I love it!
There's so many details in this track it's amazing, I especially like the violin near the end, such a cool moment. And all these atmospheric moments coupled with the more intense parts... yeah, awesome job meganeko!
Can't wait to listen to the rest of the album :)
