紅い糸
藤あや子 Lyrics

The song "紅い糸" by 藤あや子 expresses a woman's love towards a man who she has given her life to. In the opening lines, she explains how she did not want to hear from the man that he wants to die as she had hoped that they would be together always. She wants him to hold onto her tightly like a beast and make love to her passionately. She sings about how their intertwined breaths and emotions intensely embrace one another as they merge into the darkness that surrounds them.

In the next verse, she talks about how she's entrusted her entire life to the man, which can either bring her joy or pain. If he ever feels lost or confused in life, he can always use her love as an anchor and stab her with icy blades because even though it pains her, their bond can never be undone. The chorus talks about how their red threads of fate are what connect their hearts, and how they are linked to each other's destinies, a bittersweet yet beautiful concept.

The song portrays love in a different way, not as a mere romantic feeling but as something that significantly affects someone's life. The lyrics are poetic and intense, with a focus on passion and loyalty towards the loved one. The song has been featured in numerous television drama series, making it a popular song in Japan.
