黄金の月
スガシカオ Lyrics

These lyrics from スガシカオ's song "黄金の月" convey a sense of emotional struggle and internal conflict. The singer reflects on how their passion and intensity has become colder and more detached than the tears they shed in the past. They possess the ability to deceive themselves better than anyone else, as if they have acquired the power to mask their true emotions. The desire to express important words repeatedly gets caught in their throat, making it difficult for them to convey their feelings to someone. Their voice, when attempting to speak out, always breaks midway.

The passage suggests that unknowingly, the singer and their companion have moved past the peak of their relationship, symbolized by a summer afternoon. They have become burdened by darkness, carrying an unresolved tension between them. In the dim light, they navigate through life, relying on blind trial and error, attempting to handle everything smoothly. They propose combining their wishes and the singer's lies, with the intention of sharing a kiss that promises eternity on a June night. They also aim to paint a picture of a golden moon in the night sky, gathering as much light as they can muster.

The lyrics continue by expressing that even if the singer's future lacks any form of light and even if someone somewhere is laughing at them, their own self-worth remains undeterred. They acknowledge that their tomorrow might be distorted and unattractive, but even if they can never regain their purity, they seem to accept it. They conclude by saying that even without a shining golden moon in the night sky, they will continue to persevere and find meaning in their lives.
