The song moves through themes of fragility, uncertainty, and internal struggle, using imagery like a \u2018glass soul\u2019 and the night sky to represent both vulnerability and guidance. At its core, it\u2019s about following the \u2018shine\u2019 through the darkness and allowing that pull to lead you toward strength, clarity, and self-rediscovery.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>From the first note,&nbsp;<strong>\u201cForgotten\u201d<\/strong>&nbsp;pulls listeners into a storm of atmosphere and intensity.
