"Volen" by JONY is a heartfelt confession about the paradox of love: the more deeply you fall for someone, the freer you feel. The singer admits he is “болен” (literally “sick”) with love, yet this very “illness” makes him volen – free – to be his true self. He fears becoming a stranger to the world and feeling empty, but his partner’s presence fills that void with warmth, magic and light. Every day life reshapes him, yet the stability of her aura becomes his safe haven, his home, his crimson sunrise.
Through pulsing beats and sincere lyrics, JONY paints love as both an addiction and a liberation. Nights without her are trials, but when they are together he dissolves into her energy and rediscovers his identity. The message is uplifting: embracing vulnerability does not weaken you; it unlocks the courage to live authentically. In short, being “sick” with love is the very reason he is “free to be himself” in this vast world.
