L’appel du vide is French for “The call of the void.”

Transcript:

It’s raining

Pelting against my roof

Softly

I’m cold

The lights are flickering

Like my soul

They’re dying

I’ll be gone before long too

They often tell you it’s a leap of faith

That if you jump correctly

You will reap the rewards

But to jump, for me

Is to disappear into the darkness

As if I never existed at all

To be swallowed by the great beast in my mind

And to be swallowed by the looming edge

You always wonder if it’s worth it before the end

But the void in your head

In your heart

Calls you

Beckons you to join it

Become one with it

And maybe

As you become one with it

Your mind may finally know a moment of peace.
