Рассвет
Sirotkin Lyrics

The song "Рассвет" (Dawn) by Sirotkin is a heartfelt ballad about seeking a sense of belonging in a world where one feels like a misfit. The opening line "Каменный остров, танцы на костях" (Stone island, dancing on bones) creates a vivid image of a desolate and hostile environment where people are struggling to survive. The singer, who identifies as a "сын девяностых" (son of the 90s), looks back at his past and wonders who he could have been if circumstances were different. He asks himself "Где для него место, где покой?" (Where is his place and peace?) acknowledging that it's not easy to find one's place in the world when it seems like it's not meant for you.

The chorus expresses a glimmer of hope in the form of dawn, which symbolizes a new beginning and a chance for things to change. The lines "Вылечит рассвет, все город смотрит вверх, откуда" (Dawn will heal, the entire city looks upward) convey a sense of collective longing for a better future. The repetition of "У-у-у-у-у, солнце должно вернуть, все что моё" (Ooh, the sun must return, everything that's mine) emphasizes the idea of reclaiming what's rightfully ours, after feeling lost and disconnected for so long.

Sirotkin's emotive vocal delivery and the poetic lyrics make "Рассвет" a powerful song that resonates with anyone who has ever struggled with identity and belonging. The imagery of the stone island and dancing on bones is particularly striking, as it speaks to the harsh reality that many people face in a world that can be unforgiving and cruel.
