夢の振り子
竹島宏 Lyrics

The song "夢の振り子" or "Yume no Furiko" in Japanese by 竹島宏 or Hiroshi Takeshima talks about the ups and downs of life, the inevitability of fate and the importance of hope in difficult times. The lyrics encourage listeners to express their emotions, to cry if they need to, because eventually, the night will turn into day, and they will find themselves in a better place. The swings of a pendulum represent the concept of fate, that life is a journey, and you cannot change the past, but you can influence the future.

The song expresses the human desire to find one's true purpose and to hold onto what is essential in life. The lyrics talk about the challenges that individuals face, which makes them feel lost, but eventually, they find their way back to their heart's true desires, like finding a friend to support them in their journey. Even though sometimes the world may seem lonely and everyone seems to be lost, the song encourages the listener to pursue their goals and dreams, because ultimately, life is a balance between joy and sorrow, and one must embrace it. Overall the song is a message of hope and resilience.
