Dont Leave Me (feat. Oblivia)

There's something painful about knowing that a moment you never want to end is already slipping away. That's the feeling behind Don't Leave Me. It's about someone who is only there at night. Someone you can feel close to in the darkness, but who seems to disappear the moment the sun comes up. I like the idea that darkness isn't always something we're trying to escape. Sometimes it's where we feel safest, where we can be ourselves, or where we find something we can't hold on to in the daylight. And that makes the sunrise feel completely different. Instead of bringing hope or a new beginning, it becomes a reminder that you're about to lose something you desperately want to keep. There's also something uncertain about the person in this song. Are they real? A memory? A dream? Or someone who can only be part of your life when the rest of the world isn't watching? I don't think there has to be one answer. The eclipse in OBLIVIA's visual world reflects that feeling for me. Light and darkness meeting for a brief moment, neither able to stay the way it is. At its heart, "Don't Leave Me" is about wanting time to stop. Just for a little longer. Before the light comes in and everything changes. For the full experience, I recommend listening with headphones. 🎧
