Eylsia’s “Signs of Our Times” feels like a creative reset, an evolution that blurs the lines between electronic experimentation and thoughtful adult contemporary storytelling. Released on October 25, 2025, this song marks a striking shift for the artist, both sonically and conceptually. Known for dance-driven productions and genre-blending energy, Eylsia takes a more reflective route here, trading club beats for layered instrumentation, poetic restraint, and a pointed look at the world we’re living in.

The track opens with an almost conversational calm: “The signs are everywhere, don’t do this and don’t do that. / Don’t walk on the grass, don’t cross the line.”
It’s observational, but not passive. There’s a quiet frustration underneath, Eylsia uses the metaphor of literal signs to talk about a deeper kind of restriction: how modern life constantly tells us what not to do, how to act, and where to fit in. The lyrics peel back layer after layer of societal noise until the message is clear: we’re so overloaded with direction that we’ve lost our sense of direction.
“Signs of Our Times” unfolds with warmth and maturity. You can hear traces of Eylsia’s electronic roots in the production, subtle synth lines shimmer in the background, but the dominant tone is grounded and melodic. There’s an almost Peter Gabriel meets Imogen Heap feel to it: modern yet nostalgic, technical yet deeply human. The rhythm moves slow, giving the lyrics room to breathe and land.
One of the standout moments comes when Eylsia sings, “The road to hell is paved with signs.”
It’s clever, biting, and brutally relevant. The phrase ties together the song’s irony and tension, how we’re surrounded by warnings, rules, and red lights, but rarely take the time to question who’s putting them there.

Eylsia’s vocal delivery is soft yet purposeful, perfectly balancing vulnerability and critique. It’s the kind of song that invites replay, not because of a big chorus drop, but because of how its meaning deepens each time you listen. By the end, the repetition of “These are the signs of our times” lands like a mantra, equal parts warning and reflection.
“Signs of Our Times” proves that growth doesn’t have to mean abandoning your roots, it can mean refining them. Eylsia doesn’t just experiment with sound; she experiments with perspective. This is music for listeners who crave substance, not just sound.
