From the recording Between Two Dragons (두 마리의 용 사이에서)
A cinematic whisper ballad about rest after inner storms — a quiet place beneath the wings where fire and mist no longer fight, but breathe together. “Beneath the Wings (날개 아래서)” is one of the softest moments in "Between Two Dragons (두 마리의 용 사이에서)". After the tension, after the flame, after the ash and the shimmering scars, Etsurakami enters a space of stillness. The dragons are no longer circling in conflict. Their wings become shelter. Their breath becomes rain. What once tore her apart now begins to hold her. This is not a song about victory. It is a song about peace after recognition. In “Beneath the Wings (날개 아래서)”, Etsurakami no longer tries to defeat one side of herself. Fire and mist, courage and fear, strength and fragility — all of them are allowed to rest. The song carries the feeling of lying beneath something vast and protective, where even wounds become feathers and even tears return softly to rain. “Beneath the Wings (날개 아래서)” is a song about surrender, protection, and the gentle understanding that even dragons need to rest — and that a heart can begin to heal when it stops fighting against its own divided sky.
Eine cineastische Whisper-Ballade über Ruhe nach inneren Stürmen — ein stiller Ort unter den Flügeln, an dem Feuer und Nebel nicht mehr kämpfen, sondern gemeinsam atmen.
„Beneath the Wings (날개 아래서)“ ist einer der sanftesten Momente in "Between Two Dragons (두 마리의 용 사이에서)". Nach der Spannung, nach der Flamme, nach der Asche und den schimmernden Narben betritt Etsurakami einen Raum der Stille. Die Drachen kreisen nicht mehr im Konflikt umeinander. Ihre Flügel werden zu Schutz. Ihr Atem wird zu Regen. Was sie einst innerlich zerriss, beginnt nun, sie zu halten. Dieses Lied handelt nicht vom Sieg. Es handelt vom Frieden nach dem Erkennen. In „Beneath the Wings (날개 아래서)“ versucht Etsurakami nicht länger, eine Seite von sich zu besiegen. Feuer und Nebel, Mut und Angst, Stärke und Zerbrechlichkeit — alles darf zur Ruhe kommen. Das Lied trägt das Gefühl, unter etwas Großem und Schützenden zu liegen, wo selbst Wunden zu Federn werden und selbst Tränen sanft zum Regen zurückkehren. „Beneath the Wings (날개 아래서)“ ist ein Lied über Hingabe, Schutz und die leise Erkenntnis, dass selbst Drachen ruhen müssen — und dass ein Herz zu heilen beginnt, wenn es aufhört, gegen seinen eigenen geteilten Himmel zu kämpfen.
Lyrics
Beneath a sky
where two dragons sleep,
their breath becomes
the rain.
I stand quietly
below them,
letting the water
wash away the pain.
Wings of fire,
breath of wind —
two hearts
once torn apart.
Now, inside
each other’s silence,
they beat
as one single heart.
Beneath the wings,
I finally
breathe again.
When every battle
comes to an end,
only peace
remains.
In the silence,
I can hear
the sound
of letting go.
Beneath the wings,
I know.
Where the flame
has fallen asleep,
I rest
without fear.
Between waves
and clouds,
the end feels near —
but clear.
Every wound
becomes a feather.
Every tear
returns to rain.
Even dragons
need to rest,
and hearts
unlearn the pain.
Beneath the wings,
quietly,
I close my eyes
to stay.
Where two worlds meet,
the night becomes
the day.
Beneath the wings
of what I was,
I fade —
but never stray.
