Discover the story of the song > The Despair Factor – Afi

The protagonist is walking along a path and feeling alone and lonely. They feel a light touch on their body, but no one is actually there. They wait and hope by the stairs, but they feel despair. The protagonist feels like their whole life is a dark and lonely place. They hear footsteps and echoes, but it only brings disappointment. They feel stuck in a place where they know they will never be seen or noticed. They long for someone to touch them and make them feel alive, but they feel like they are fading away.
