Humanoid
花たん Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Nobody has to know
変わることない理想の嘘で形作られ
無くしたもの追いかけたもの
そのすべてが私を描く

すり抜けてく記号と記憶
振り向く顔それが見えない
笑う声はヒトかモノかと

答えのない式を廻らす

I don't fear to fade away
But now, I'm still alive

What do you see anytime?
What do you want any more?
Never never I know
私に答えて

Face to face See the fact
Face to face Make a truth
Never never I know
自分の声も

I don't fear to fade away
But now, I'm still alive

What do you see anytime?
What do you want any more?
Never never I know
それが愛ならば

Face to face Give me love
Face to face Love is blind?
Never never I know
その心さえ

I don't fear to fade away
But now, I'm still alive

What do you see anytime?
What do you want any more?

What do you see anytime?
What do you want any more?
誰の代わりを探したのか

What do you see anytime?
What do you want any more?
Never never I know
私に答えて

Face to face See the fact
Face to face Make a truth

Never never I know
自分の声も

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to 花たん's song Humanoid express the struggle of finding one's true identity in a world filled with expectations and false perceptions. The opening verse talks about how the persona is shaped by the ideal lies that people believe in and the things they chase after. The persona is trying to find their own place in this world, but they feel like they are slipping away, and they cannot find their true self. They are looking for answers to questions such as "what do you see anytime?" and "what do you want any more?".

The chorus of the song shows that even though the persona does not fear fading away, they are still alive in this moment. The repetition of "never never I know" emphasizes the fact that the persona is unsure of themselves and their identity. They are asking for someone to face them and see the fact of who they are, to make a truth out of it. However, even their own voice is a mystery to them, and they do not know what their heart desires.

The last verse of the song asks who the persona was trying to replace, and they repeat the same questions once again, wanting an answer. The song ends with the chorus, emphasizing the idea that even though the persona may not know everything about themselves, they are still alive and trying to find their true self.
