The Future
B.S.A. Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

ひび割れた大地の中に失われた叫び
音のない深海の闇に溶けていった涙

いつの日か産声をあげる あなたに借りた世界
今がすべてと 僕は荒らし放題 使い果たしてしまうのか

誰の番? シラをきるなよ
Change the future 時計の針はそっと
永遠に 閉ざすはずの 森の奥へ
足を踏み入れてしまったよ

手にしているものがどこから来たのかも知らず
棄てたものがどこへ流れてゆくのかも見届けない

綺麗な文句を並べ立てても 誰かの思うツボで
不覚にも 共犯者になる 釈明は許されない

誰の番? シラを切るなよ
Change the future 時計の針は進む
心で見ろ ハメられるな 惑わされるな
後悔したまんまじゃいやだろう

さあ僕の番? ごまかせない
Change the future 誰も責めないからつらい




同じ時に 巡り会えた 運命の友よ
できるなら みな思いをひとつに

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to B.S.A.'s song The Future depict a world that has been cracking and breaking apart, causing people to lose their voices and their tears to dissolve in the soundless depths of the sea. The singer questions whether they will use up everything in this moment, living recklessly in a world borrowed from their child, who will one day cry out. They warn someone not to be too smug or complacent, as this future is subject to change, and the hands of the clock are ticking toward a forest that should have been forever sealed.


The singer realizes they do not know where what they have comes from or where what they discard goes. They note that even if they try to speak beautifully, what they say may fall into someone else's definition of a bad explanation, making them an accomplice to something they do not fully understand. They exhorts others to not be tricked or trapped by deceitful promises, and not to be paralyzed by regret. They want to move forward and create a future where people can come together for a common cause.


Overall, the lyrics express uncertainty and fear, but also a yearning for change and hope. The imagery of a cracked and damaged world, loss of voice and tears, and a winding journey through darkness all contribute to the feeling of being overwhelmed and fragile amidst a chaotic time. However, the singer's call for action and unity also instills a sense of courage and determination to push forward towards a better future.
