*Please read* Since the song is composed of multiple instruments I only tabbed out the basic sound progression used in the song so I used power chords to represent these sounds. If y’all find the best sounding chords let me know in the comments!

À propos de la chanson

La chanson évoque des souvenirs d'un jardin tranquille, où l'on découvre un journal ancien en creusant. Les pensées du jeune auteur du journal révèlent une réflexion sur le temps qui passe et les incertitudes de la vie. Il exprime un souhait pour des moments plus simples et une vie où les relations humaines seraient meilleures, notamment pour son frère. L’auteur décrit aussi la complexité des émotions et des connexions entre les gens, insistant sur le fait que la vie ne se déroule pas toujours de manière linéaire et que la solitude peut être partagée.
