This gospel-inflected ballad features guest vocalist Mai Anna, Kaz's schoolmate at Harvard University. The song was produced by the two artists together, and is about a passionate relationship that blossoms in the mournful final days of summer.
Kaz commented, "The song has a gentle melody that evokes the end of summer, with a warmth and touch that feels like touching someone's skin."
The music video features a full-length animation created by Mirai Mizue, who has made videos for numerous artists and is renowned for creating abstract and organic animation works called "cell animation", a play on "cel animation". The video is attracting attention online thanks to Mizue's original interpretation of the themes of 'Paradise Lost', playing with abstraction, metamorphosis and trippy psychedelia.
