The song "зачем мы здесь?" (meaning "why are we here?") by Конец Солнечных Дней (End of Sunny Days) talks about the longing for purpose and meaning in life. The lyrics reflect on the disappointments of the past, particularly the recent autumn, which didn't bring any desired results. The protagonist feels lost and detached, unable to leave behind their doubts. The mention of a burning letter symbolizes a lingering influence from the past, something that continues to affect the protagonist despite the passage of years. The song suggests that the future is uncertain, and the protagonist can't see where their path is leading. In the midst of all this confusion, a blizzard hits the city. It's unclear how things are going for the protagonist, but they invite someone (possibly a friend or a listener) to sit down and share their thoughts. The question repeatedly asked in the song, "зачем?" (why?), expresses the protagonist's search for purpose and understanding. The chorus reassures that despite some changes, everything is okay. The protagonist acknowledges their quirks and acknowledges that they were just trying to delve deep into themselves. Ultimately, they were attempting to understand why all of this is happening. The meaning of the song revolves around existential ponderings, uncertainty, and the search for purpose in life. It expresses the longing for someone to share these thoughts with and find solace in understanding.
