for me this song captures the strange peaceful feeling of going into complete darkness
i distinctly remember listening to this song while biking at night the day after i moved into my apartment my sophomore year of college, contemplating how beautiful the stars in the night sky were. a part of me wanted the sun to never rise again
similar feeling (maybe less depressing) as 
Retche Gospod Gospodevi moyemu - which plays in this clip of werner herzog narrating about a nihilistic penguin: Penguin, Depressed...

that's part what this song captures for me: the appeal of nothingness

Reminds me of this song off a Youtube clip of a documentary about penguins, where Werner Herzog narrates (with all the gravitas his voice brings) as a penguin voluntarily abandons his village to wander towards certain death - https://youtu.be/zWH_9VRWn8Y?si=nj99xSMwhhLGB4tu&t=49
