澤野弘之 Lyrics

These lyrics reflect a sense of longing and frustration in trying to connect with someone or achieve one's dreams. The opening lines describe how even if the stars in the sky that connect us make a sound, they are all just dreams soaked in the same rain, a metaphor for experiencing the same disappointments and setbacks. The line "乾くだけの光" ("dry light") suggests a feeling of hopelessness or a lack of progress in chasing one's dreams.

The lyrics continue to express a weariness with seeking answers from others and the breakdown of a morning in a sunless dawn that repeats itself. The mention of "捕まえたdaydream" ("captured daydream") implies holding onto a dream that is delayed, while the "出遅れたストーリーと栄光が" ("late-story and glory") suggests a feeling of being left behind or missing out on something.

The verse then talks about feeling frustrated, waiting in line, and disguising one's true intentions or desires. The line "箱の中に揃えた苛立" ("frustration lined up in a box") creates an image of pent-up emotions that have been neglected. The lyric "Don't be above your daydream" indicates the importance of staying true to one's dreams and not letting them be overshadowed or forgotten.

The next verse mentions a need for puzzle-like pieces that fit together with the outside world. However, it implies that these pieces are as false as the shadows cast by them. The mention of "順番待ちさらし 誤摩化しのゴール" ("waiting in line, dishonesty of the end") suggests a sense of frustration with the dishonesty and deception that is often involved in achieving success.

The lyrics then express a determination to keep singing and bridging gaps, even if someone's dream is falling apart. The lines "だからサイレンス 鳴らすためと" ("so, silence to make a sound") convey a motivation to break the silence and make one's voice heard. The following lines mention a rhythm that only follows one side, suggesting a determination to stay true to oneself despite the passing world.

The final verse discusses the inability to convey emotions and the resistance and impulse to break free from conforming to societal ideals. The mention of a "砕けたcry＆dream 扉だけの理想" ("broken cry&dream, ideal of only doors") implies the shattered dreams and ideals that only exist in one's imagination. The mention of a city drowning in noise and the singer's decision to abandon the rudder suggest a desire to escape from the chaotic and suffocating environment.

In conclusion, these lyrics convey a sense of frustration, weariness, and longing for connection and fulfillment of dreams. They also emphasize the importance of staying true to oneself and breaking free from societal pressures and expectations.
