愛する or die
毛皮のマリーズ Lyrics

The lyrics of 毛皮のマリーズ's song "愛する or die" delve into themes of desperation, longing, and anger in a tumultuous relationship. The singer pleads for love and exclusive devotion, expressing their own limitations and vulnerabilities despite their strong facade. The repeated refrain of "愛して下さい 私だけ" (Please love only me) showcases the singer's intense desire for love and validation, reaching out to a higher power for understanding and comfort.

The lyrics convey a sense of childhood innocence and bedtime routines, juxtaposed with the harsh realities and betrayals of adulthood. The singer reflects on the nightly ritual of saying "おやすみなさいを欠かしません" (Never skipping the "good night") from their childhood, highlighting the contrast with the current pain and mistreatment they are facing. The invocation of "神様 テメェ ちょっと来いや" (God, you come here for a moment) conveys a mix of frustration, defiance, and a plea for divine intervention in their suffering.

The emotions escalate as the lyrics transition to feelings of resentment, frustration, and confusion. The singer grapples with a sense of unworthiness and confusion about the nature of love, expressing how their anger and frustration serve as fuel for their inner emotional turmoil. The declaration of "刺すぞ 殺すぞ 死ね・死ね・死ね!!!" (I'll stab you, I'll kill you, die, die, die!!!) reveals a dark and violent aspect of the singer's emotions, showcasing the depth of their despair and desperation.

As the song progresses, a moment of clarity and vulnerability emerges. The singer admits to feeling "くやしい" (upset) and acknowledges their struggle to understand the concept of love. The confession of "神様 お前を許さない! ...ウソです 神様 ゴメンなさい" (God, I won't forgive you! ... Just kidding, Sorry, God) reflects a mix of anger, forgiveness, and self-reflection. The repetition of "あー! あー! エゲツナイ エゲツナイ" and the plea to "俺だけ愛して下さいよ" (Please love only me) encapsulate the singer's inner turmoil and desperate plea for love and understanding in the face of emotional chaos.
