If what we leave behind is bigger than what we take forward
How can I walk straight ahead knowing that is still my burden?
The time I spend making up for my advantage,
it needs way too many ice cubes and Antarctica is melting.
Oh darling don’t be scared
You’re too hard on yourself
Just keep on walking straight
And you will be okay.
The treasures you could find
It used to be a game
Your friends, they’ve all moved on
It’s time to turn the page.

The time I spend making up for my advantage,

Oh I’m spreading out and I’m constantly migrating
(Are you like me?
Do you know what I mean?)
And my comfort zone is bigger than the Indian Ocean
(Will you fit in?
Will you be my guest please?)
Oh darling don’t be scared
You’re too hard on yourself
Just keep on walking straight

Singolo: Antarctica / Neon Days
dall'album Dream Life in uscita nel gennaio 2026
Antarctica - Marta Del Grandi - EarOne

“Antarctica is a track that found its shape during a late evening solo session, when a melody I had in mind for days naturally fell on top of a sequencer I was playing around with. It’s a song that I particularly love, talking about climate and social injustice with a playful and non-literal language.” – Marta Del Grandi
