Liar
????? Ayumi Hamasaki Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
滑稽な感覚だけに陶酔する
初めてのキスとか色んな記念日とか
独占欲に塗れてみたり
あの時の私に出来た事って言えば
そうして精一杯愛に背を向ける事
知るには早すぎたのかも知れない
普遍的なものが一番なんて幻想
単純すぎて浅はかなだけ
最後に見送った背中が私を占める
一体どのくらい経てば解放されるの
君に愛される程胸が苦しいの
ねぇ私は君の事をもう
あの時の私に出来た事って言えば
そうして精一杯愛に背を向ける事
最後に見送った背中が私を占める
一体どのくらい経てば解放されるの
The lyrics of Ayumi Hamasaki's song "liar" describes a person's struggle in a life filled with unproductive and monotonous days. The singer finds themselves caught up in the absurdity of their situation, where they are only able to find solace in fleeting moments of pleasure and excitement. The lyrics touch upon the singer's regret for their past actions, including their obsession with possessiveness and turning their back on the love they received. They acknowledge that perhaps they were too naive to understand the consequences of their actions, leading them to experience the haunting and crippling effects of post-successful happiness.
The singer is constantly grappling with the notion of universal concepts and the immaturity within simplicity of thought. Furthermore, the lyrics suggest that the singer is haunted by the memory of a person they have parted with, represented by the image of their back. The song explores the idea of being trapped in a cycle of self-destructive behavior, the desire to be free from it, and the internal conflict that comes with moving on.
