Story behind the song

Moment of Truth explores the universal questions that emerge when we are confronted with our own mortality. It imagines the final moments of life—not as an ending, but as a brief pause where memories, regrets, hope, and uncertainty converge.

Lyrics

When you are nearing your time, Thinking back well, Within a memory swell, There is a moment of truth. And in a blink of an eye, Your life’s put on hold, In that moment you are torn, Big questions are born. Are we turning to dust? Are we turning to light? Are we gonna be reborn? As humans by dawn? Who knows, who knows, who knows… The answer lies with those who are gone. Who knows, who knows, who knows… Close your eyes to find the answer, your own. When I am nearing my time, Thinking back well, All I hear is your voice, All I sense is your smell. And in a blink of an eye, When my life’s put on hold, That’s when I still wonder, Still why I was born. To be turned into dust? To be turned into light? To be maybe reborn, As a human by dawn? Don’t know, don’t know, don’t know… The answer lies with those who are gone. Don’t know, don’t know, don’t know… Let me close my eyes to find the answer, my own.
