Coming Out
3호선 버터플라이 Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
바다위에 자빠져있던
Oooh-- coming out oooh-- coming out hush
나와 나와 무거운 무지개 구석에 서.있.는. 나는
지금 여기에 이대로 그녀가 된것처럼 온통
바위들로 덮힌 하늘아래 발가벗은
내 모습과 나와 별의 숨소리 나와
The lyrics of "Coming Out" by 3호선 버터플라이 describe a person standing at the corner of a heavy rainbow after falling into the water on a day with intense sunlight. The character in the song describes feeling entirely covered by rocks beneath the sky and hearing the sound of their own breathing and the breathing of stars. The repeated phrases "coming out" and "hush" suggest a sense of liberation and secrecy, as if the person is undergoing a transformation or revealing a part of themselves that was previously hidden.
It's possible that the song is about coming out as LGBTQ+ or revealing some other aspect of one's identity that has been kept hidden. The line "I am here now, like this, like her" could suggest a gender identity or sexual orientation that has previously been kept hidden. The description of falling into the water and standing on rocky ground could also symbolize feeling uncertain or unsteady in one's identity.
Overall, the lyrics of "Coming Out" are open to interpretation, but they suggest a moment of truth-telling and self-discovery. The repeated phrases of "coming out" and "hush" suggest a tension between wanting to reveal oneself and the fear of being rejected or misunderstood.
