如果Track 01.《Alive》是孩子第一次发现“我在这里”,那么概念专辑的第二曲《Gone》是他第一次发现:

有些东西不在了。

昨天还在的花,今天为什么不见了?
刚刚还在笑的人,为什么突然安静了?
一只鸟飞走以后,它还算在这里吗?

歌曲里的“Gone”不断重复,像脚步,也像记忆的回声。

孩子不明白:

如果一个东西已经消失了,
它究竟去了哪里?

“Gone”

If “Alive” is the child's first discovery that “I am here,” then “Gone” is the moment he discovers something else:

Some things are not here anymore.

Why was the flower here yesterday,
but gone today?

Why was someone laughing a moment ago,
and now the room is quiet?

When a bird flies away,
is it still here somewhere?

If I close my eyes,
are you still there?

The child meets disappearance for the first time, but he does not yet know what it means.

So he keeps asking:

Where did it go?
Where did she go?
Where did the summer go?
Where did all the voices go?

“Gone” is not simply a song about death.

It is also about time, memory, growing up, and all the things the world quietly takes away from us.

An old toy.
A photograph.
An empty room.
Someone who does not come back.
Even a childhood that slowly disappears without saying goodbye.

The word “Gone” keeps returning like footsteps, like a memory trying to come back.

Gone, gone.
Gone, gone.

But the child still does not understand:

If something is gone,

where does it go?
