Description
I've had a hard time with words lately. But I got lucky when Piero Peluche encouraged me to write vocals for a collab he had going with his friend Maurizio Leonardo Solfietti.
So here's my attempt at finding some light in darkness. The only trouble is... the light comes when we're gone.
LYRICS
Been feeling like I’m completely out of words
My heart cracked open, bleeding out into the Earth
Can’t make sense of anything happening these days
All I know is everything is getting worse and worse
And I can’t stop it
But I know, my silence will never protect me
And I know, my heart is stronger than their bait
And I see all the good people
And I feel all the strong souls
And I go outside in nature
And remember Earth has been here
So much longer than it’s people
And it will be here
it will be when we’re gone
it will be here
it will be when we’re gone
And I see all those who mean well
And I feel all of the love
And I go outside in nature
And remember Earth has been here
So much longer than us people
Well said, and sadly true.
btw - Have you seen Bugonia? It's not an easy watch and it's not a comedy. Until it's over.

Thanks, Speck.
Ummmmm... YES! Bugonia was definitely my favorite movie from 2025. After watching it, Katie turned to me and said, "that is such a Kara-movie." I found that flattering.
One of my direct inspirations for this song was Train Dreams. Have you seen that one? It's a work of art.

Contemplative and sobering. I'm right there with you.
Thanks, Zenboy. It's good know I'm not alone. When wrote the "good people" line, I was thinking of you and others in this community. So thank you.

Thank you, thank you! Kindness is resistance! Let's create a culture of kindness... hey... that's what the MixterVerse is!
