RUNAWAY TRAIN
Boowy Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
もてあましてる天使達
プラットホーム冷えきって
二人の息もこごえてる
(I MUST BELIEVE IT)
(I MUST BELIEVE IT)
今ならまだ間に合うだろう
(YOU MUST BELIEVE IT)
本当の事を探すまで
(I LOST MYSELF)
見えやしない
おざなりな夢?
冗談じゃないぜ
(YOU LOST YOURSELF)
飛びのるのサ
今から二人
始められるはず
RUN RUN RUNAWAY TRAIN
RUN RUN RUNAWAY TRAIN
くすぐったい優しさは
いつもきまってうわべだけ
リアルな夢を手さぐりで
探せずにいる天使達
(I MUST BELIEVE IT)
(I MUST BELIEVE IT)
今ならまだ間に合うだろう
(YOU MUST BELIEVE IT)
(YOU MUST BELIEVE IT)
本当の事を探すまで
(I LOST MYSELF)
消せやしない
オマエとならば
きっとうまくいく
(YOU LOST YOURSELF)
飛びのるのサ
今から二人
始められるはず
RUN RUN RUNAWAY TRAIN
RUN RUN RUNAWAY TRAIN
(I LOST MYSELF)
見えやしない
おざなりな夢?
冗談じゃないぜ
(YOU LOST YOURSELF)
飛びのるのサ
今から二人
始められるはず
RUN RUN RUNAWAY TRAIN
RUN RUN RUNAWAY TRAIN
RUN RUN RUNAWAY TRAIN
RUN RUN RUNAWAY TRAIN
Boowy's song "RUNAWAY TRAIN" talks about two lost souls, portrayed as angels, who are wandering aimlessly, unable to find their true calling in life. The opening line "しわくちゃの魂をもてあましてる天使達" (Angels with disheveled souls) suggests that the angels are not living up to their potential and are overwhelmed by the weight of their souls.
The chorus "RUN RUN RUNAWAY TRAIN" is a metaphor for breaking away from their current lives and starting anew. The two angels encourage each other to believe in themselves and seek out the truth until they find their way out of their current predicament. The line "くすぐったい優しさはいつもきまってうわべだけ" (Ticklish kindness is always surface-level) suggests that people often only show superficial kindness and the angels have difficulty finding genuine connections.
The song emphasizes the need to believe in oneself and have the courage to take action to change one's life. The line "消せやしないオマエとならばきっとうまくいく" (If it's with you, I'm sure it'll work out) highlights the importance of finding someone to share your journey with and having faith in their abilities to help you along the way.
Overall, the song encourages the listener to persevere, trust in themselves and their abilities, and take action to pursue their dreams.
