Liar
中森明菜 (Akina Nakamori) Lyrics

In 中森明菜 (Akina Nakamori)'s song Liar, she sings about the pain of being betrayed by someone she trusted. She compares the poignant feeling to the moonlight of Platina, thinking that it's simply due to the late night hour. But as the lyrics continue, it becomes clear that the pain is due to the lies told by the other person. They continue to tell one lie after another, and Akina cannot forgive their selfishness. She regrets crying in front of them and wishes they cannot see her in that state. She does not want them to know how much they hurt her.

The chorus of the song is particularly striking as Akina sings about waking up alone the next morning, realizing that love is just a bad dream. She hears someone screaming from the boring TV screen and sees an unfamiliar face of an actress. The buildings outside her window shine brightly, their lights reflecting off her heart that is rusting and unchanging. She asks the person who is more important than herself to tell her if they exist, and that person would be set free from her grip. Even if she becomes pale and chooses loneliness, she will not be tied to them anymore.

Overall, the song describes a person's pain and betrayal at the hands of someone they trusted, and their struggle to find freedom and healing in the aftermath.
