楕円の夢
寺尾紗穂 Lyrics

The lyrics to 寺尾紗穂's 楕円の夢 tell a story of heartbreak and self-discovery. The singer addresses an unknown listener, asking if they want to hear about what happened after the end of a relationship. The singer describes feeling like an empty shell, like a bird without wings, but also trying to fly as high as possible, aiming for the sky. The singer then reveals their ambiguity about what they really want to talk about - losing the listener or being alone - realizing that both are true and that they have been living in ambiguity. The singer reflects on taking both bright and dark paths, which were really the same path that the listener had taught them to appreciate. The singer echos the listener's words that this ambiguity is all there is, and that they must continue walking the narrow path between light and darkness. In the end, the singer sings about safeguarding their elliptical dream until the world ends, and concludes by singing about the elliptical night's beauty and the dance under the moonlight.

The song is a powerful reflection on the complexity of relationships and the emotional impact they can leave on someone. It illustrates how ambiguity can be both liberating and confining, but ultimately the only thing that matters is persevering through both the light and dark times.
