MONSTER
れをる Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
浮かぶ月 見つめる僕の目は何色なんだ?
震えるこの手は 色んなもの全部
欲しがってるなんてさ? 滑稽だろ?
そうさ 僕らもがき続けてゆくモンスター
目に見えるもの全て望むんだ
そして空を分つ月の灯りの下
羽もないのに飛ぼうとするんだ
どんなものも犠牲にして
そっと離した君の手はさ 今も何処かで温かいと
自分に言い聞かせるこの声は怯えてるんだ
身体に零れた影は息を吐いて
ヒトトキの隙に赤く染めた
そうさ 僕らもがき続けてゆくモンスター
触れる全て壊してしまうんだ
振り返る余地なんてないから (稲光)
そして淡く焼ける東の空の下
描く幻想に酔いしれるんだ
胸の奥 嘘を隠して
不安に噛み付かれたこの足は
それでも進むことをやめはしない
太陽と月が重なり影を落としても
そうさ 僕ら永遠を求めてゆくモンスター
意味もわからずにただ向かうんだ
歯向かう術さえ知らないから (稲光)
そして空を分かつ月の灯りの下
いつか羽ばたけると夢見るんだ
全て焦がす暁へ 迷いなんて見当たりはしない
鋭い瞳が闇から見つめてる
流れ落ちる血の臭いを嗅ぎ分けて
心の奥の方 声がこだましてる
全てを手にせよ さぁ全てを手にせよ
The lyrics of "MONSTER" by れをる are about a person grappling with their inner demons and the constant struggle to achieve their goals. The first verse speaks of a darkness that shudders when touched by the wind and produces beautiful music that dances in silence. The singer's gaze is fixed on a floating moon, wondering what color their eyes are. The second stanza talks about the singer's trembling hand that craves everything and feels absurd to them. The lyrics suggest that all humans are monsters in their constant struggle for everything they see.
The chorus speaks about how monsters, like the singer, yearn for everything that's visible and don't have time to hesitate. They are depicted as flying towards the sky and ignoring all sacrifices. The next verse is the singer talking about how they reassure themselves about letting go of someone's hand, saying that it is still warm somewhere. Reassuring themselves is considered to be monster-like behavior. The singer's voice fears, and their body casts a shadow that darkens every moment, a moment that is painted red at times. The second chorus reinforces the idea of a struggle towards anything the monsters touch, without any chance of looking back.
In the final verse, the singer tells how uncertain they feel and how much they fear, but they don't stop moving forward. Even if the sun and the moon overlap, they will continue to seek the meaning of eternity, refusing to accept anything less. The lyrics suggest that the singer has no way of resisting internal and external fears, but they keep moving forward towards the unknown.
