秘密
二宮和也 Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
微妙な距離を感じていた
何でも打ち解けあえればと
願っていたら
何度も何度も消しすぎて
破れてしまった
下のページに 君の気持ち隠してあった
お願いだから タネあかしをして
それはきっと幻じゃない
君の目がくらんでるだけ
それを僕が癒せるなら
手をかざしてパワー分けてあげたい
僕の願いもついでに届けばいいのに
未だに君は気づかない
僕を困らせるばかりさ
今 目の前で
君が口ずさんだメロディ
気づいてないかもしれないけど 僕は感じる
前とは違う 近づけば自然に伝わる
僕らにしか見えない
秘密の架け橋が出来た
夏の夜から 朝にかけて
僕らを見下ろす星が流れる
それはきっと幻じゃない
君だけが知ってるもの
それを僕と分かち合う
何もいらない みつめるだけでいい
僕の中で軸になっていくものが
どんどん確実になる
手にとるように分かるのさ
それはきっと幻じゃない
君だけが知ってるもの
それを僕と分かち合う
何もいらない みつめるだけでいい
僕の中で軸になっていくものが
どんどん確実になる
手にとるように分かるのさ
In "秘密" (Himitsu), Ninomiya Kazunari sings about feeling distant from someone he cares about and hoping to break down the barriers that have come between them. He laments the fact that despite his best efforts to open up to this person, they continue to hold back, ultimately causing him frustration and confusion. He then pleads with this person to share their true feelings with him, so that they can build a bridge of understanding and trust that will allow them to move forward together. Towards the end of the song, Nino sings about the power of their connection, likening it to a secret bridge that only they can see, and expressing his belief that their bond will only continue to grow stronger over time.
One interesting aspect of the song is its use of imagery, particularly with regards to the "secret bridge" that Nino imagines. This image represents the depth and intimacy of the connection he shares with this person, which transcends ordinary communication and allows them to share their true selves with each other. It also highlights the idea that true understanding and closeness can only be achieved through vulnerability and a willingness to let down one's guard.
