The opening lines of The Aikiu's song "Pieces of Gold" tackle themes of nostalgia, love, and loss. The lyrics describe a person who is stranded, feeling lost and lustful in a world where lovers vanish away. The singer's love for their significant other is still holding on, but the distances arising from the unanswered calls stretch thin. The roads they travel lead to the unveiling of the inevitable but uncertain future. In the chorus, the singer begs their lover not to leave them this way as they come to terms with the reality of their situation. The singer speaks about their struggles with loneliness, which they compare to the loneliness felt inside limousines, and they seek refuge in the memories of their loved ones, which they are desperate to hold on to.
The second verse of "Pieces of Gold" adds further dimensions to the song's themes. The lyrics dive into issues of cultural dislocation and a sense of rootlessness, as the singer finds their way to Hong Kong, China. They seek to find solace and meaning in this new environment, but the feelings of solitude, augmented by the midnight blinking sound, keep creeping in. In the final lines of the song, the singer expresses their readiness for the "feeling of Hong Kong sorrow," which appears to be a critical moment of reconciliation and acceptance.
