Missing Link
Munimuni & Seelenwald Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Spiraling in the universe in reverse
Many lights seem not disturbed
Shining to be heard
You′re near
You're not here

Lost connection there is a missing link
In between any and everything

Doubtful waves breaking at the shore
Still you′re not so sure
Water desperately looking for the sea
Just like you and me





Lost connection there is a missing link
In between any and everything

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Munimuni & Seelenwald's song Missing Link are deeply introspective and philosophical, attempting to explore the concept of disconnection and the search for meaning in a vast and seemingly chaotic universe. The first stanza presents an image of spiraling through the universe in reverse, and many lights appearing undisturbed. This can be interpreted as a metaphor for the human experience of feeling lost and insignificant in the grand scheme of things. The shining lights represent those who have found their purpose and reason for being, whereas the singer is still searching and trying to find their place.


The second stanza delves deeper into the theme of disconnection, as the singer describes the doubt and uncertainty that permeates their existence. Waves breaking at the shore symbolize the fluctuating emotions and thoughts that are constantly chipping away at their sense of self. Despite this, there is still a desperate search for connection, much like water looking for the sea. The singer acknowledges that this need for meaning is not unique to them, it is shared by all humans.


The chorus ties everything together, describing the missing link between any and everything. This missing link is the connection and purpose that the singer is searching for, but has yet to find. The song leaves the listener with a sense of longing, but also a glimmer of hope that perhaps one day, the missing link will be found.

Impressive piece of art! Comforting and full of suspense at the same time. Remembers me of some of Trent Reznor's projects.
