e:lect – “It doesn’t matter” is a dark and introspective song that expresses detachment, numbness, and disillusionment with life and relationships. Comparing life to a distant echo suggests a sense of detachment or disconnection from reality, evoking images of self-destructive behaviour or seeking escape through substances. The imagery of “coming home” to a place where others don’t matter underscores the theme of isolation and the desire to detach oneself from the emotional complexities of life.
