遊助 Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Have two eyes but I cannot see
I have a heart but I cannot feel anything
Don't give up now, I'm almost there
I got a mouth but it doesn't say

The things I want it to say today, anyway
Don't give up now, I'm almost there
Life's just an ugly mess
The angry souls in such distress

Still, there is a time when moments can be sweet
And it feels like someone's smiling down on me
Sometimes it feels like I'm all alone
Most of the time, actually, I am alone

That's alright
Don't give up now, I'm almost there
If I had a million bucks it wouldn't matter
'Cause my soul's always climbing a ladder

Oh, I know
Don't give up now, I'm almost there
Life's just an ugly mess
The angry souls in such distress

Still, there is a time when moments can be sweet




And it feels like someone's smiling down on me
Alright

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to 遊助's song 街 (Machi, meaning "city" in Japanese) describe the feeling of disconnection and emptiness that the singer experiences despite being surrounded by people in a bustling city. The first two lines of the chorus, "Have two eyes but I cannot see / I have a heart but I cannot feel anything," illustrate the singer's inability to connect with the world around him. Even though he has the physical means to experience and process his surroundings, his emotional detachment renders them meaningless. This sense of detachment is further emphasized in the line "Most of the time, actually, I am alone," revealing that the singer feels isolated even in the midst of a crowd.


However, despite the bleakness of his situation, the singer encourages himself to persevere with the lines "Don't give up now, I'm almost there." This sentiment is repeated throughout the song, reflecting the singer's determination to find a way to connect with the world around him. The chorus also acknowledges that there are moments of sweetness and happiness to be found, represented by the line "And it feels like someone's smiling down on me." These moments offer the singer hope that despite the chaos and ugliness of life, there are still moments worth living for.


Overall, "街" is a poignant exploration of the loneliness and detachment that can arise from living in a big city, but also a hopeful reminder to keep pushing forward despite the struggles.

【歌詞】


ぶっとい字で書くんだ(強く書くんだ)
思い立った想いを
ずっと睨むんだ(そこに立つんだ)
後戻りはない
諦めた自分に慣れんな
ah キラめいていた気分が
まぁすり減っていく度
戦わなくてもいいかと 楽な方を見ては
胸叩いて叫び合う

wow oh

やりたい事やってる奴達が
羨ましいだろと笑うだろ
分かんないかな
分かんないんだな
名もないこの日が

束になって舞う中 Are you ready? go!
この一歩がきっと
向かい合った未来へ続いていく
今日も続いている
日々の大体 ほぼ毎回は間違って
そんなこんなでごった返してる さぁ
意味が無い事でも 
いつか意味に成る日が来る

細い字でなぞった(自信が無かった)
生きる理由欲しかった
ずっと悩んでんだ(何がしたいんだ)
見えかけて消えんだ

ベタに高い物持った奴達が
自慢げに見せて満たされてんだろ
分かんないかな
分かんないんだな
何気ない日が

束になって舞う中 Are you ready? go!
この一歩がきっと
向かい合った未来へ続いていく
今日も続いている
日々の大体 ほぼ毎回は間違って
そんなこんなでごった返してる さぁ
意味が無い事でも 
いつか意味に成る日が来る


たまにぁヘコむだろ?
まぁそんな事に慣れる日が来る前に
重なり出会った感情を素直に描いてくんだ

殴り書きで出来た地図を握り
扉を開けるんだ
雲掴むような夢持ってどこまでも
そうさ この瞬間でも

過去があって花咲く 
Are you ready? go!
今日という日もきっと
向かい合った未来へ続いていく
夢も続いている
日々の大体 ほぼ毎回は間違って
そんなこんなでごった返してる さぁ
意味が無い事でも 
いつか輝く宝になる

wow oh
