雨 Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
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
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
The lyrics to 雨僑's song "願" (Wish) convey a sense of frustration, hopelessness, and loneliness. The opening lines, "Have two eyes but I cannot see / I have a heart but I cannot feel anything," suggest a lack of emotional connection to the world. The singer acknowledges the difficulty of expressing themselves ("I got a mouth but it doesn't say / The things I want it to say today, anyway") and feels like they are constantly struggling ("Life's just an ugly mess / The angry souls in such distress"). Despite this, they urge themselves not to give up, saying "Don't give up now, I'm almost there" multiple times throughout the song.
However, the song is not entirely bleak. The chorus offers a glimmer of hope: "Still, there is a time when moments can be sweet / And it feels like someone's smiling down on me." This suggests that even in the darkest of times, there are moments of joy or connection that make it all worthwhile. The final lines, "If I had a million bucks it wouldn't matter / 'Cause my soul's always climbing a ladder / Oh, I know," suggest that the singer is on a quest for something intangible, something that money cannot buy.
Overall, the lyrics to "願" (Wish) offer a complex and nuanced exploration of human emotions. It acknowledges the difficulties of life while offering a glimmer of hope and a reminder to keep pushing forward.
