![]() ![]() In times of emotional distress, he write songs. The art of creating has become something that continues to show him that beauty and purity are found in all aspects of life. Missio: (miss-ee-o) - Latin for "mission." Inspired by the words "All are from the dust, and to the dust all return," Missio seeks purity in broken things through minimalistic songwriting.

Reflecting on the choice to lean towards negative feelings or thoughts I think I might have chosen darkness over light Reiterating the concept of duality and perception Somebody told me that's two sides to this life Having enough knowledge or wisdom to share with others ![]() This sense of being unheard persists throughout the dayįeeling as though their ego is up for grabs or not genuineĪsking for the removal of the superficial aspects of oneselfįeeling trapped and tormented by one's own thoughtsĪsking for comfort and reassurance through musicĪcknowledging one's own struggle and painįeeling like a broken record or not being able to express oneself fullyįeeling drowned out or unheard internallyįeeling overwhelmed by one's own internal noiseĪcknowledging that asking for help can feel selfish or burdensomeĪsking for assistance and connection with othersįeeling chosen or singled out for something, potentially negativelyīeing known for or feeling like they ruled over their own pain and sorrowįeeling like there's an endless amount to learn or understand Turning to a higher power for guidance and supportįeeling unheard by a higher power or feeling disconnected from it I might have accidentally let the darkness eat the lightĪdmitting responsibility for choosing a darker pathĮxplaining the motivation behind the previous decision ![]() Introducing the duality of existence and perceptionĪsking the listener to share their perspective Somebody once told me that there's two side to life Questioning whether this sense of familiarity comes from a previous encounter with the speaker Someone else regards this familiar aspect about oneself Reflecting on oneself, feeling familiar yet distant, as though there's a glimpse of recognition Talking to the mirror like I've seen them somewhere before In the end, the repeated plea for someone to sing to them becomes a powerful expression of vulnerability and the need for human connection. However, this acknowledgement also comes with a sense of introspection, as the singer recognizes that they can sometimes be their own worst enemy. The bridge of the song features a shift in tone, with the singer acknowledging that they have been "nominated" as the "king of sadness" and have much to learn about themselves and the world around them. The repeated refrain of "I am not doing well" and the pleading for someone to sing to them are indications that the singer is seeking comfort and healing from someone else. The fear that they may have "let the darkness eat the light" suggests a struggle with depression or anxiety, with the darkness representing negative emotions and thoughts. The next verse moves towards a more general philosophical reflection on the dualities of life, with someone else having told the singer that there are two sides to everything. They then express a sense of familiarity with the person they see in the reflection, suggesting a struggle with identity and self-awareness. The opening lines suggest that the singer is talking to themselves in a mirror, possibly reflecting on their past experiences and trying to find meaning in them. The lyrics of MISSIO's song "Sing To Me" are a plea for help from someone who is struggling with their own thoughts and emotions. I think I might've chosen darkness over light Somebody told me that there's two sides to this life Got so much I know that I could even feed the birds Somehow I got nominated as a king of sadness Call me selfish when I say this, say this ![]()
