A doomy tune sung by Mikko Kotamäki which deals with love, longing and hope. The crushing theme meets a tender verse, creating a vulnerable balance before the heavy interlude hits. This ballad draws its influences entirely from the 90s, boosting the nostalgic vibe of the entire performance. Olli-Pekka “Oppu” Laine
