about
"Opportunity" by moon:and:6 is a poignant exploration of perseverance and melancholy, inspired by the Mars rover's final moments. This single blends electronic indie rock, chillwave, and dreampop to create a nostalgic soundscape, influenced by Air and Grandaddy. With electric guitar, synthesizer, and heartfelt vocals, the track captures the essence of Opportunity's mission, reminding us to live fully despite the inevitability of endings. It's a tribute to resilience and the beauty of pushing forward, even in the face of darkness.
lyrics
Alone
All day
Working through the fray
Red skies
Red sands
Searching for a sign
Of life
It's cold
All day
Roaming all alone
It's just a matter of time
Before we all start to fade
I've got the sun in my eyes
But I don't dare look away
I search
I work
Sifting through the sand
Alone
All day
Still searching for a sign
It's just a matter of time
Before we all start to fade
I've got the sun in my eyes
But I don't dare look away
At night
I sleep
Waiting for the sun
I wait
No sun
Waiting for a ray
Of light
It's just a matter of time
Before we all start to fade
I've got the sun in my eyes
But I don't dare look away
It's just a matter of time
Before we all start to fade
I've got the sun in my eyes
But I don't dare look away
All day
Working through the fray
Red skies
Red sands
Searching for a sign
Of life
It's cold
All day
Roaming all alone
It's just a matter of time
Before we all start to fade
I've got the sun in my eyes
But I don't dare look away
I search
I work
Sifting through the sand
Alone
All day
Still searching for a sign
It's just a matter of time
Before we all start to fade
I've got the sun in my eyes
But I don't dare look away
At night
I sleep
Waiting for the sun
I wait
No sun
Waiting for a ray
Of light
It's just a matter of time
Before we all start to fade
I've got the sun in my eyes
But I don't dare look away
It's just a matter of time
Before we all start to fade
I've got the sun in my eyes
But I don't dare look away
