時流
クリスタルキング Lyrics

These lyrics are from the song "時流" (Toki Nagare) by クリスタルキング (Crystal King). The song reflects on memories and nostalgia. It begins with the singer finding an old photo falling out of the pages of a forgotten novel. The faded colors of the photo bring back familiar faces, triggering memories that had almost been forgotten. As the singer looks up at the night sky, they remember sharing a part of their long life with someone else, as if grasping onto a fragment. The lyrics express a longing for those passionate moments shared with someone under the starry sky, wondering where those memories have gone and questioning the passing of time.

The song contemplates the transient nature of time, as the characters in the lyrics wander through the flow of time. While they were once called friends, their connection was fragile and ultimately short-lived. The singer acknowledges the presence of playmates and loved ones in their mundane everyday life but recognizes that even the ability to forgive betrayal has become distanced in the distant past. The lyrics emphasize that while they may one day cross paths again, they can never return to the passionate days they once shared. The singer decides to live without dwelling on the past and to move forward without being fixated on what has already passed. The lyrics suggest that it is still too early for them to speak of those fiery days, implying a sense of youthful exuberance yet to be experienced.
