黑洞

The song 黑洞 was written in mid July, just a couple of weeks before my birthday.
My younger brother had a fatal cycling accident and required to have an urgent brain surgery. There was nothing we could do but pray for his life.
Thankfully, the operation was successful and while he was recovering in the ICU, I was overly exhausted and it was the third nights that I was not able to sleep. Occupied by the grieving emotion that I needed to let it out, so I just went to piano and played randomly, and this song was born.
With no calculation, no planning, merely the expression of the unbearable weight of worries, it was a very effective remedy for me.
The lyric was later written by my friend 頡臣 based on his understand of my feeling.
I thank GOD for taking care of my brother and let me have a new perspective to life.
Rock on!
