Grid.ID - Alec Benjamin baru saja merilis lagu berjudul King Size Bed.
Melansir Genius.com pada Minggu (24/3/2024), tema utama dalam lagu baru ini berkisar pada kehilangan, penyesalan, dan perjuangan untuk menerima akhir dari suatu hubungan.
Lirik lagunya menggambarkan rasa kerinduan dan nostalgia akan masa lalu, dipadukan dengan rasa tidak mampu dan menyalahkan diri sendiri atas hancurnya hubungan tersebut.
Simbolisme dan metafora memainkan peran penting dalam menyampaikan kedalaman emosional lagu ini.
King size bed melambangkan ruang fisik dan emosional yang dimaksudkan untuk dua orang, menekankan kontras antara ukurannya yang kini hanya ditiduri sendiri.
Pada akhirnya, “King Size Bed” mengeksplorasi dampak dari patah hati dan upaya untuk mendamaikan kesalahan masa lalu dan menyelamatkan hubungan yang retak.
Lagu ini seperti refleksi tajam atas kompleksitas cinta, kehilangan, dan kerinduan akan rekonsiliasi bahkan di saat-saat kesendirian dan penyesalan.
