nameless story
VALSHE Lyrics

The lyrics of VALSHE's "Nameless Story" follow a narrative of a protagonist who is searching for something, possibly a missing love interest. The first verse describes how the singer's breath quickens as they chase shadows in the sunset but are unable to hear the voice of their beloved. They feel that with every word spoken, they become stronger. However, they find themselves lost in sharp memories and are unable to locate any solace until they stumble upon a ray of light that guides them towards a colourless story that unravels itself. During moments of despair, the singer recalls the distance that cannot be measured by physical means and the poignant words of their beloved.

The second verse speaks of the singer's longing to be close to their beloved and wondering if they could fit the natural mould of a fairytale character. They regret not knowing if they could have been close to each other, and the singer briefly closes their eyes, overwhelmed by the feeling of incompleteness. The bridge provides insight into the singer's reflection on the story they are writing, which has resulted in blurring their vision, leading to a blank page. They continue to write, searching for an ending to their nameless story and wishing that it does not end. Although they hope to find the end, they would also like their beloved to stay with them until they wake from their sad dreams.

The song explores the pain, confusion, and longing that come with unrequited love, as well as the desire to continue searching for something that feels unattainable. The melody complements the melancholic atmosphere of the lyrics.
