Zim | ዝም

Meaning

“Zim” (which means “Silence” in Amharic) is a deeply emotional song about heartbreak, loss, and acceptance. The singer expresses the pain of a fading love, where their partner has emotionally distanced themselves. The song highlights the struggle of dealing with heartbreak while realizing that silence does not mean everything is okay. Despite the sadness, the lyrics suggest a moment of final acceptance—letting go and choosing to move forward rather than clinging to memories.”
