Sleep
シド (SID) Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

唇が渇く音さえも 聞き逃さない距離で いつも眠った
今日こそは後と決めたのに 包まれ 心地よく 先に眠った

君のことを知るたびに 知らない君を ひとつ 忘れる
そんな 君主導な恋 辛いよ

さよならに 踏み切れるはずもないと わかってるけど
念の為に 抱きしめる
どこまでもずるい人と知って 近づいたのは そう
夢中の後 もう 戻れない

送られてくる 言葉たちは 色鮮やかな嘘 慣れた返信

その器用な指先で 今日も誰か 喜ばせるの
そして 悲しませるのね 痛いよ

最低な夜は 越えるから こちらにもお願い
それの為に しがみつく
できるだけ長く 続くように それ以上 求めない
困る顔が ただ 怖くて

君が思うよりも ずっとずっと 濁りがなくて
君が思うよりもね 臆病だけど
今 わかる 確かなことは その全部が 君の前だと
意味を持たない

「泣くなよ」で拍車がかかった 崩れ落ちる 涙
ただ 終わりを 早めたね

さよならに 踏み切れるはずもないと わかってるけど
念の為に 抱きしめる
どこまでもずるい人と知って 近づいたのは そう
夢中の後 もう 戻れない

できるだけ長く それ以上 求めない 求められない





眠った

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of シド (SID)'s song 'sleep' are a portrayal of a painful and complicated relationship. The distance between the two individuals sleeping side by side is mere physical proximity, but they are far apart emotionally. The singer is a restless soul who cannot even miss the sound of their partner's lips drying up. Although the singer decided not to sleep before their partner, they always end up sleeping first.


Every time the singer learns something new about their partner, they forget one thing they already knew about them. The relationship is led by their partner, and it is getting harder for the singer to handle the pain. Still, they understand that they can't go their separate ways and cling to each other despite knowing how tricky they are. They are accustomed to the pattern of colorful lies and rehearsed lines and stay as long as they can without expecting anything more. The singer understands that there is no use to any of these, and they mean nothing.


Every time the singer thinks of saying goodbye, they realize that they can't take that step. They hold on for as long as they can, and even after it ends, they don't try to cling onto anything. They understand that the relationship is futile, but they embrace the person they want to leave behind, possibly for the last time. In the end, the singer resigns to the fact that they can't expect anything more and goes to sleep like they always have.


Overall, the lyrics express the struggle to deal with an unstable relationship and the pain and emotions that come along with it. It is a beautiful, poignant, and introspective song about love, loss, and forgiveness.
