Onpu no you ni sotto nagareru ame no shizuku
Toki wo wasureta p.m.
Watashi dake no soundscape

Yume ni mite ita douwa no hiroin
Itsuka dareka tasukete kureru tte iu
Dakedo matte iru dake ja kitto
Tadoritsuke nai mono ne wonderland

To live, to love, to go somewhere
Kizutsuku koto
To live, to love, to meet someone
Kakugoshi nakya

Umareta basho wo tooku
Hanarete hitoribocchi
Kimi ni wa ie nai
Sonna koto datte aru kara ne
Kyou wa kono mama
Mou sukoshi nemutte itai yo
Toki wo wasureta p.m.
Watashi dake no soundscape

Dada wo koneru kodomo mitai ni
Tokidoki chotto amaete mitai na
Oishii hanashi ni wa toge ga aru tte
Minna wakatteru
She's not a stupid girl

To live, to love, to go somewhere
Daiji na mono wa
To live, to love, to meet someone
Mamotteru yo

Onpu no you ni sotto nagareru ame no shizuku
Toki wo wasureta p.m.
Watashi dake no soundscape
Sugi satta koto zutto
Kuyandete mo shouga nai
Ame ga yandara fuku wo kigaete dekake you oh

Kumo no kirema ni chotto kao wo dashita taiyou




Toki wo wasureta p.m.
Watashi dake no soundscape

Overall Meaning

The song "Soundscape" by BoA is a reflective tune about the ups and downs of life. The lyrics are deeply introspective, with the singer bemoaning her isolation while cherishing the moments that shape her life. It begins with gentle rainfall, and the singer seems to lose track of time in her own thoughts, represented by the PM. She describes herself as the only inhabitant of her personal soundscape, a world that she has created for herself. She shares her frustrations with misfortune and her aspirations to someday find a way out of the trials and distractions represented by "Wonderland." BoA highlights the importance of loving and living, even if it involves getting hurt.


The second verse reverberates a feeling of loneliness and isolation, as BoA sings about being away from home and everyone that she knows. Even though she cannot relate to those who surround her, she cherishes the moments spent with them. She ends the song with a call to arms, asking for the Rain to stop and for the sun to come out. It tells us that sometimes we all need help to be the best versions of ourselves.

the only way im not dying during finals is this, and for anyone studying for exams please study w this!! it makes studying more bearable and creates a totally different atmosphere :)) here's a little scenario to make you smile a bit and lighten up while studying~

imagine: youre in the gryffindor common room, studying with harry, ron and hermione for your coming up exams. you all sit at a table with hot drinks, chocolate frogs, pumpkin pasties and cauldron cakes in the middle to help you from falling asleep.

"hermione im stuck on this particular question." you say
"what is it y/n?" hermione looks at your paper and textbook
"this one," you show her the question
"oh its very simple, so basically.." she helps you understand the question and gives the answer

meanwhile, ron subconciously grabs another chocolate frog to nibble on as he works on his study material,

"my goodness, i think you've had quite a lot of those. dont you think?" harry notices.
"huh?" ron perks his head up from what he was studying.

you all laugh,

"oh nothing ronnie, you can go back to studying." you laugh

Can I miss a place where I have never been before? I feel that when I listen this music

Vladimir Hlocky

But you have been there, we all have! It exists right here... We have read the books, seen the movies, heard the music... The feelings we have all felt, were they not real? How lucky we are to have experienced Hogwarts:)

ShytownShots

But we did go there, we all went together!
