我 月光と漆黒を背負う 革命のナイト 四十物十四
Fourteenth moon
何の冗談? 抱え込んだ疑問
いきなり邪魔モン 笑えない
理由もなく始まった陰湿な bulling
惨めな日々の routine
底無し沼のような地獄に
蜘蛛の糸垂らしてくれと
祈り叫んでた空虚な過去にお別れ
戻れない やり直せない
立ち止まれない 前に進むしかない
Cry babyから変化する為に
One, two, three 指折り数え
満ちる日を待つ兎 月の影に探して
雲の奥に幻想の島見出す
宵待月の名を背負い
孤独でも歩くと決め今に至るのさ
暗がり 照らす月明かり
マイク手に取り さぁ行こうかアマンダ
明日のその先 光が待つこと信じて
不退転の心抱いて
塞ぎ込むようなことばかり
けど立ち上がり
さぁ行こうかアマンダ
握る拳力強く 涙拭き
Never, never, never, never give up, give up
磨く容姿 通う美容室
異質な目で見る者達には直筆サインをプレゼント
さぁどうぞ
「我の世界に取り込んでやろうぞ」
台詞が厨二? 意見ご自由に
君を夢中にするヴィジュアル重視
居座る重鎮に向ける銃身
終日できてる革命の準備
恐れない まだ倒れない
揺るがない 心はまだ死んじゃいない
Skull ladyの kiss受けるまでに
墓場背に向け 銀色の薔薇片手に
地下深くから這い上がり
頂上目指して掴め アンダーグラウンドロマンス
始まるぞ狂乱の宴
悔い残さぬよう大いに騒げ
暗がり 照らす月明かり
マイク手に取り
さぁ行こうかアマンダ
明日のその先 光が待つこと信じて
不退転の心抱いて
塞ぎ込むようなことばかり
けど立ち上がり
さぁ行こうかアマンダ
握る拳力強く 涙拭き
Never, never, never, never give up, give up
そういや誰かが言ってたなぁ
そうやって派手な見た目だけじゃ
通用しないって中身を見てから言いな
食わず嫌いの偏食家か何か？
常に自分の魅せ方
突き詰めるのが十四のやり方 生き様
スポットライト浴び輝きを増す
マイク掴めば誰だって誰かのヒーロー
その脳で肌で全身で感じろカタルシスを得るヒプノシス
三つ巴 bad ass temple 揃えばまさに三銃士
異質な存在にディスでいつもギスギス
未来を見ず閉ざす扉に kick
今に見とけ 革命の爆弾 導火線に火つける我こそが Fourteenth moon
もう涙は零さないように
星眺め笑って行こうかアマンダ
明日のその先 光が待つこと信じて
不退転の心抱いて
塞ぎ込むような日に立ち向かい
つらい日も乗り越え行こうかアマンダ
握る拳力強く 明日へ向け
Never, never, never, never give up, give up
Never give up, give up
Never give up, give up
Never give up, give up
The lyrics to "Shadows" by B.R. Stylers describe the pain of a past relationship that still lingers in the singer's mind. The repetition of "No" throughout the song reflects the singer's denial of moving on and accepting the end of the relationship. The singer expresses their desire to stay in bed and avoid confronting the thoughts that haunt them. The memories of the past, the hurtful things their former partner said and the tears that have been shed, still have a hold over the singer's emotions.
The second verse reveals that the singer is trying to move on and succeed in life, but their ex-partner is hindering their progress. The singer calls their ex-partner out for their reckless behavior and expresses their desire to make a name for themselves despite the relationship's end. The bridge demonstrates the singer's conflicting feelings towards their ex-partner. Although they want them to stay, they acknowledge that they should have picked a different day, and they refuse to take the blame for the end of the relationship. The lyrics as a whole emphasize the lingering pain of a past relationship and the difficulty of moving on.
