Tell Me Why
Berserk Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Feel no shame about shape
Weather changes their phrase
Even mother will show you another way
So put your glasses on
Nothing will be wrong
There's no blame, there's no fame
It's up to you
The first words should be finded
Whatever hold you back
I can, I can get it off

* Tell me what, Tell me what, Tell me what you want
I don't know why, don't know why, don't know why you afraid
Tell me what, Tell me what, Tell me what you say
I don't know why, don't know why, Too late, it's too late

Have no fear for real
It's just a turning wheel
Once you start up there's no other way
Don't put your eyes on boots
Step forward your roots
There's no aid there's no trade
It belongs to you

# Before you miss something given




You should know what's the truth
I can, I can make it out

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of the Berserk's song Tell Me Why are suggestive of a message of hope for those who might be struggling through their lives, feeling confused, or defeated. The song opens with the assertion that one should not be embarrassed about the shape they are in or the way life's circumstances can change, for they are not to blame. Instead, one should put on their glasses and see that nothing will be wrong. The chorus of the song is a call for communication, urging the listener to tell the singer what they want, to stop being afraid, and to speak their truth before it is too late. The song continues with the affirmation that there is no reason to be fearful and that life is just like a wheel that can be turned. The singer urges the listener to not focus on their past mistakes but rather on their roots and to recognize that there is no one else out there to help them, only themselves. The final words of the song are a reassurance that whatever the listener may be feeling is valid, and that the singer can help them overcome it.

I’m just so sadden that the original was taken down. It had so many wholesome comments about people’s feelings on berserk and Miura. YouTube took down a legendary video.

@user-ce1zb9vb9b

Really ?

@Richard_Daniel333

@@user-ce1zb9vb9b yes really. Berserk was one of the first mangas I have ever read and the 1997 anime was better than the modern ones. Seeing people in the comments section sharing their memories and feelings for this master piece is emotional.
