七夕
ねごと Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
サイレンの音が街に降ってく
テレビは逃げる人を映して
夜の隙間を騒がせてる
脳内ランプはもうチカチカ
交信つなげてブラックホール
やつらの呼ぶ声がくすぐったくて
SOSを叫ぼう
誰が気づいてくれるの
UFOに飛び乗れたら
アクセスフューチャー
ぼくらの未来を教えて 昨日のことはもう忘れちゃうから
そんなに悲しい顔してると ねぇ
すべてを盗まれるゾ! 超危険
SOSが聞えて
誰かがぼくを呼んでいる
UFOに飛び乗っていこう
アクセスフューチャー
ぼくらの未来を教えて 明日のことなどわからないさ
いつかは燃え尽きて星になるの いびつなロマンの果てまで行こう
The lyrics to ねごと's song 七夕 depict a futuristic world where a UFO hovers overhead, emitting a blinding light. The siren's wail echoes throughout the city below, causing frenzy and panic. The television broadcasts images of people fleeing from an unseen threat, further heightening the atmosphere of fear and chaos. Meanwhile, inside the singer's head, his brain lights up like a Christmas tree, signaling a connection to a black hole. The voices of the aliens calling out are so ticklish that he involuntarily sneezes.
Feeling helpless and lost, the singer cries out for help, hoping that someone will hear his SOS. He dreams of being able to board the UFO and fly towards the future, where the possibilities are endless. He asks whoever is on the other side of the call to guide him and his fellow adventurers to their destination, as they no longer remember what happened in the past. Despite the danger that surrounds them, the singer is determined to chase after their dreams and reach the stratosphere where their twisted romance may come to an end.
Overall, the lyrics convey a sense of unrest and uncertainty that comes with change. The world around the singer is evolving rapidly, and he feels powerless to do anything but dream of a brighter future. The fear of losing everything and being forgotten is a common theme throughout the song, highlighting the importance of holding onto hope and reaching for the stars.
