シャンデリア
Aldious Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

探り歩けばいつかは本当の僕を見つけられる気がした
だけど気付けば無難なカラーを纏い自分を押し殺した

I just wanna... I just wanna stay bright
例え世界が敵に回ってでも

Living life in my own way
いつかの景色閉じ込めた夢で見た輝きを

Living life in my own way
些細な事に捕われず突き進む未来へ

揺れるシャンデリア無限なカラーを放ち心照らしてくれた

I don't wanna... I don't wanna cry
黒い涙が頬をつたってでも

Living life in my own way
嘘の無い景色喜びも苛立ちも悲しみも
Living life in my own way
決意を胸に拒絶した蝶は舞う未来へ

馴染めない生活さえ新たな一歩踏み出せる
揺らめくシャンデリアのようにいつかはきっと輝く

Living life in my own way...
いつかの景色閉じ込めた夢で見た輝きを
Living life in my own way...
些細な事に捕われず突き進む未来へ

Living life in my own way... (Any time at all)
喜び苛立ちも悲しみも

Living life in my own way... (I wanna shine, I wanna sing)
ありのまま突き進む未来へ

The song "シャンデリア" by Aldious is a song about the struggle to find one's true identity while navigating the pressures of conformity and societal expectations. The lyrics suggest that the singer has been trying to find their true self and their place in the world, but has found themselves conforming to what is expected of them. They have put on a mask and hidden their true self, but they have a glimmer of hope that they will one day find their true self.

The song focuses on the theme of living life in one's own way, not being held back by the small things in life and pushing for a future that is authentic and true. The chorus speaks of a chandelier that casts infinite colours, shining on the heart of the singer. The chandelier serves as a metaphor for the singer's journey of self-discovery, where they can find their true self and long for the day they will shine bright like the chandelier.

Overall, "シャンデリア" explores the universal theme of self-discovery and authenticity, and encourages listeners to live life in their own way.
