Who Are You?
登坂広臣 Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I don't really know, I don't really know, oh, oh
I don't really know, I don't really know, oh yeah
I don't really know, I don't really know
現実なのか 幻なのか
存在が薄れてく その前に
時には I'll be honest, honest
閉じ込められた時代の奴隷
解放されず隠した本音 yeah
Maybe no one knows, maybe no one knows
What we're living for, what we really die for
答えを見つけるまで 探し続ける
Who are you (I don't really know, I don't really know)
who am I (I don't really know, I don't really know, no)
Who are you (I don't really know, I don't really know)
who am I (I don't really know, I don't really know, no)
現実なのか 幻なのか
存在が薄れてく その前に
Just tell me who am I, who am I
Show me who am I, who am I
鏡だらけの迷路 迷い見失うほど
I don't know who am I, who am I
Show me who am I, who am I
光が照らして導く face to face
さらけ出す who are you
朝まで I'll be on it, on it
でもなぜか I'm lonely, lonely
一人なのにふえてく影
重ならないあなたは誰 yeah
Maybe no one knows, maybe no one knows
What we're living for, what we really die for
あなたの向かう先は 遠く離れてる?
Who are you (I don't really know, I don't really know)
who am I (I don't really know, I don't really know, no)
Who are you (I don't really know, I don't really know)
who am I (I don't really know, I don't really know, no)
現実なのか 幻なのか

Just tell me who am I, who am I
Show me who am I, who am I
鏡だらけの迷路 迷い見失うほど
I don't know who am I, who am I
Show me who am I, who am I
光が照らして導く face to face
さらけ出す who are you
I don't really know, I don't really know, no

The lyrics of 登坂広臣's song "Who Are You?" convey themes of uncertainty, self-discovery, and the struggle to find one's true identity. The repetition of "I don't really know" highlights the singer's lack of clarity and understanding about themselves. They question whether their existence is real or illusionary, as they feel their presence fading away.
The lyrics suggest that the singer alternates between two contrasting states of being. Sometimes, they choose to be naughty and dishonest, reflecting the influence of a confined and oppressed era. Yet, they also have hidden honest thoughts and desires, which they are unable to express freely.
The chorus emphasizes the search for answers and self-identity. The singer reflects on the fact that perhaps no one truly knows what they are living for or what they would sacrifice their lives for. They express the determination to continue searching until they find the answers they seek.
The bridge introduces the metaphor of a maze filled with mirrors. The singer feels lost and confused to the point of losing their way in this maze. They admit that they do not know who they are, and they call for someone to show them their true self. They long for the guiding light that will lead them to the revelation of their identity.

表情や目線なんかの動きだけで言葉感じることができるし、登坂くんはやっぱり表現力が高すぎる。
MVなのに1つの映画を見ているような感覚になる。
曲も最初からサビが来て、心掴まれました🥺💓 高めの声だけど耳になじんで聞き心地がめちゃくちゃいい！
そしてOVERDOSEに続いてサビバリバリ踊ってるのもめちゃくちゃカッコイイし、この2曲のパフォーマンスがめちゃくちゃ楽しみ!!
これがまたLIVEに繋がるらしいし、毎回毎回楽しみにさせられる🤦♀️💓
HIROOMI TOSAKAの世界観、ふるむんの時にめちゃくちゃ感じたけど、めちゃくちゃ考え込まれててすごくはまるし抜け出せなくなるけど、そこがいい。
こんなにも楽しませてくれるし、ワクワクを忘れないでいさせてくれるからほんとに彼のファンになって良かったと心から思う。

どこにいる時、どんな時でも、曲を聴いてる瞬間だけは未知なる世界に引き込まれる感じ。
ØMIさんの曲の世界観は他の誰にも作れないものがあると思う。
いつからかすんごいハマってヘビロテしている。
@misakia.9474
臣さんのmvはついつい深読みしたくなる
単純にこういうストーリーでやったら面白いだろうという作りなのか、臣さんの本当の心の叫びなのか。
@yuka-bd4xp
臣くんの心情.感情を全て理解することは、到底出来ないと思うけど、本当に臣くんが作り出す世界観が大好き。
MVが毎回毎回、予想を遥かに超えて最高！
