Some songs feel less like music and more like weather. “Intertwined” by Delta of Venus rolls in slowly, like fog after rain — thick with feeling, hard to define, and impossible to ignore once you’re inside it.

The track opens with a question: “Where are they flying to?” It’s not clear who “they” are — and maybe that’s the point. There's a sense of quiet disorientation that runs through the entire song, like trying to find meaning in the middle of a moving crowd. The lyrics drift more than they declare, landing somewhere between wonder and worry. “Lay your hand down on my still chest / as it beats for everyone I’ve never met.” That line alone just stops you. It's fragile, but big-hearted.

Sonically, Delta of Venus leans into shoegaze textures but pushes them further than before — layers of guitar blur into each other like smoke trails, vocals tucked just deep enough into the mix to feel like they’re inside your head rather than outside it. It’s immersive without drowning you. There’s no traditional structure yelling for attention. Just a slow-building haze that makes you feel something before you can name it.

What makes “Intertwined” linger is how it offers softness in the face of chaos. It doesn’t try to fix anything. Instead, it sits with the discomfort, and maybe that’s the real empathy — being willing to stay present, even when the world doesn’t make much sense. The repeated line “Look at that / do you feel it” isn’t just a lyric. It feels like an invitation, a plea even.

This isn’t a song you walk away from humming. It’s one you carry, like a weight — not heavy in a bad way, just real. “Intertwined” asks you to feel for people you don’t know. It’s quiet, messy, honest — and in its own way, a kind of protest against the numbness we’re all trying not to fall into.
