Another Name
Bridear Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

The bright and the dark
Koyoi mi ni matsuu na wa
Itsueri no another name
Yoru no neon ni kayuku
Josen tsukurimonode shika nai

Call my name
Anata dake wa nee
Hontou no na deonde hoshii no
Shidaini kaga rohochite iku
Watashi no kokoro ni kidzuite

Nani ga hontou de
Nani ga usona no ka
Jibunde mo wakarana kunaru
I lost meaning of my life
Watashi to oboreteyo
Are you ready, tonight?

I hate myself for losing you
I want to escape from another name
Subete o sutete shimaitaku naru koto
Kore ijou nai itami o moeyou to suru
Yasashii himede sasayakanaide

I lost meaning of my life
Onegai, maowa sete
Are you ready, tonight?

I hate myself for losing you
I want to escape from another name
Kanashii koro ni
Sono hitomi ga setsunakute
Itsueri no hana o mata zeu

I hate myself for losing you
I want to escape from another name
Subete o sutete shimaitaku naru koto




Kore ijou nai itami o oboeyou to suro
Yasashii himede sasayakanaide

The lyrics evoke a sense of duality, playing on the idea of both light and darkness, as well as the concept of having both a true name and an alternate identity. The opening lines, “The bright and the dark / Koyoi mi ni matsuu na wa / Itsueri no another name / Yoru no neon ni kayuku” set the tone for the rest of the song. The singer is struggling with the two opposing forces within herself, represented by the bright and dark.


The lyrics go on to describe the desire to be called by one's true name and the pain of feeling lost and uncertain. The line “I lost meaning of my life” speaks to the overwhelming feeling of not knowing who one is or where they belong. The chorus, “I hate myself for losing you / I want to escape from another name” reveals that the singer is mourning the loss of someone significant and cannot reconcile this loss with their sense of self. They want to escape from their alternate identity and return to who they truly are.


Overall, “Another Name” is a poignant and introspective song that tackles themes of identity, loss, and regret in a powerful and evocative way.
