漆黒を塗りつぶせ
野水いおり Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
傷つき果てた このカラダでは未来まで辿り着けぬ
だから信じ誇れる日々 仮面の顔で 手放すのだ
さよならのため出逢い 散るために花は咲く 永久(とわ)の真理よ
残酷な物語 裏切り裏切られ オヤスミ... 夢のまま旅立とう
その時 聴こえる歌 哀しいかなしい歌「死ぬな死ぬな」
漆黒を塗りつぶせ
光りと闇が 抱き合う時を 誰もが待ち続ける
地上はまるで終わりなき問い 己の欲に迷い
常に足りず常に乾き 獣(けもの)のように さまよう街
奪い獲る黄金は 目覚めれば石コロさ 我らは何処へ
後悔の涙など これ以上流すより 渡ろう 果てしなきこの夜を
ほらまた 聴こえて来る 哀しいかなしい歌「行くな行くな...」
人はなぜ生まれた?
離れた後に 浮かぶ横顔
想い出をかき乱す それが愛というものならば
残酷な物語 裏切り裏切られ オヤスミ... 夢のまま旅立とう
その時 聴こえる歌 哀しいかなしい歌「死ぬな死ぬな」
漆黒を解き放て
The lyrics of 野水いおり's song 漆黒を塗りつぶせ describe a sense of hopelessness and despair which are expressed metaphorically through the use of contrasting imagery. The opening lines, "My wishes have run out, even my hope as strong as steel is now made of glass" communicate a sense of vulnerability and fragility, symbolized by the contrast between hard steel and delicate glass. The next line, "With this wounded body, I cannot reach to the future," conveys a sense of being trapped in an unchanging present that one cannot escape from.
As the song progresses, the theme of despair continues, with mentions of betrayal and endless wandering through a dry and unfulfilling world. The recurring line "don't die, don't die" may be interpreted as a plea to hold on to life even in the face of despair. However, the song ends on a slightly more hopeful note, with the line "Unleash the jet black," suggesting the possibility of breaking free from the darkness.
Overall, 漆黒を塗りつぶせ uses vivid and evocative imagery to portray a sense of hopelessness and struggle, while maintaining a thread of hope for a brighter future.
