Больше, чем эта жизнь RADIO Version

Perigee is an album about the moment the world comes too close.
A lunar-paced love story told in quiet weather, it follows two people through the night of a supermoon — from the shock of unexpected brightness to the slow return of distance.
Written in Petrichor’s signature atmosphere of rainlight (soundcloud.com/quantumme/sets/petrichor), wet streets, and soft memory, these tracks trace an orbit of intimacy: closeness, drift, tide, ache, release, return.
It’s an album for the nights when the city glows a little too brightly, for the gravity you feel without touching, and for the simple truth that some connections, like the moon, circle back whether you’re ready or not.
A gentle, cinematic meditation on distance, longing, and the cosmic pull between two people moving through the same sky.

PERIGEE

I’m Not Living For Their Applause
© 2025 R3Zondo

they don’t feel the weight i’m waking with
they don’t dream the dreams i’m aching with
i’m the one who has to walk this road
if i stall, the years will steal my time
if i fold, i’ll lose what could be mine
why let their fear define the life i own

i’m not living for their applause, i’m living for my own
every step i’ve had to take has pulled me closer home
and the voices in the distance fade like wind against a stone
i’m not living for their applause, i’m living for my own

they throw stones from quiet places
never risked their dreams or chased them
still they talk like they’ve been walking through the night
but i build slow while they keep sleeping
every loss is worth the keeping
i’m reaching farther than their narrow lines of sight

i’m not living for their applause, i’m living for my own
every step i’ve had to take has pulled me closer home
and the voices in the distance fade like wind against a stone
i’m not living for their applause, i’m living for my own

i’m living for my own

(Summary)

This song is my reminder to trust my own path instead of chasing approval from people who never risk anything themselves. I wrote it to reclaim the energy I lose worrying about their judgment. Only I live with the dreams I don’t pursue. Only I carry the consequences of holding back. These lyrics are me choosing independence, choosing courage, and choosing to listen to my own voice, even when it feels lonely. This one is about freedom, not validation.
