: The opening line, "Коли настане день / Закінчиться війна" (When the day comes / The war will end), was written in 2012 as a metaphor for personal struggles, internal battles, and the hardships of love.

: At its core, the song is a plea for safety and love. The chorus repeats the hauntingly beautiful line, "Обійми мене, обійми мене, обійми / Так лагідно і не пускай" (Embrace me, embrace me, embrace me / So gently and don't let go).

While "Обійми" was already a massive hit upon its release in 2013, its legacy has grown exponentially over the last decade.

: Filmed in London, the video features a stark, moody, and cinematic aesthetic.

The official music video, directed by acclaimed British director Howard Greenhalgh on IMVDb , perfectly mirrors the raw emotion of the track.
