Silhouette
神田優花 Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
雨の向こうで呼ぶ声
遠く彼方に響いていても
何よりも側にあるもの
ずっと前から知っていたようで
耳を離れない
その姿さえ見せないまま
声だけが聞こえる
この鼓動の近くで
今通り過ぎて行く
What if I've known what I wanna know
silhouette, show me your signs
everything is dazzling to me
rain, you are no longer pain
窓の外
雨の向こうで呼ぶ声
遠い面影のようで
見知らぬ誰かのようで
まだ見たことのない
新しい予感
闇に浮かぶシルエット
それはこの痛みと
深い悲しみの底に
足音が聞こえる
What if I've known what I wanna know
tell me rain
send me a letter
everything is still beautiful to me
I'm in hope
What if I've known what I wanna know
silhouette, show me your signs
everything is dazzling to me
rain, you are no longer pain
The lyrics of "Silhouette" by 神田優花 evoke a sense of longing and introspection. The first verse describes a voice calling from beyond the rain outside the window. Despite the voice echoing in the distance, the most important thing is the presence of something or someone by the singer's side, which they've known for a long time and cannot forget. The person or thing remains unseen, with only their voice audible. The lyrics convey a sense of the singer's desire to be closer, to be in the vicinity of this familiar voice and its accompanying heartbeat.
The second verse continues the exploration of the unknown. The rain's call from the other side of the window feels distant and unfamiliar, like a distant silhouette or a stranger. However, this unfamiliarity brings a new anticipation, a feeling the singer has not experienced before. A silhouette emerges in the darkness, floating in the depths of pain and deep sadness. Footsteps can be heard, lending a sense of movement and progress. The singer wonders if they have already known what they want to know, and they ask the rain to communicate and send them a letter, perhaps seeking clarity or guidance.
The chorus repeats the yearning to know what the singer wants to know and pleads for the silhouette to reveal its signs. Everything around them seems dazzling, and the rain, which used to be associated with pain, no longer holds such negative connotations.
Overall, these lyrics delve into the depth of emotions, showcasing a longing for connection and understanding. The constant presence of unseen voices and silhouettes creates an air of mystery, as the singer seeks to decipher their meaning and find solace in the beauty that surrounds them. The rain serves as a metaphor for both pain and hope, symbolizing the transformation of negative experiences into something more positive and meaningful.
