about

The last movement is the musical recap that restarts the cycle, when we find ourselves back in command, making attempts to right the ship and start fresh, only to fall into the entire process all over again. The form of this final movement is slightly altered from the opening movement (Open Your Eyes), giving the music a sense of inevitability and gloom. We try to control our world but fate has the upper hand; we have no agency, despite our efforts. The text ends with the phrase "momentum is bruising", which is my way of saying everything comes at a cost - you may have success, but always with some form of sacrifice. -MH

lyrics

Wake Up
Open your eyes and reset
Don't look down
Don't look down
Don't look down

Fill your mind with hopes and dreams...
and plans and lists

Sliding, slowly...
Sliding, slowly...
Drifting uncontrollably...
gaining... losing... momentum

Momentum is bruising.
