This came from an interview with Martin.

“ [The last track that I wrote] is also the first song on the album, 'My Cosmos Is Mine'. I wrote it shortly after Russia had invaded Ukraine. I thought, "How much should we still bear? What else will be thrown at us?" And my first reaction was to say: I will pull myself back into my little world, leave me alone. The song is about, when dealing with powerlessness, protecting your inner self from the attacks of the world and to, together with your loved ones, prefer to hide somewhere. Which is of course rather shortsighted, because we have to accept the responsibility of our planet's wellbeing, or else no one will be left anymore”
