Chemistry Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
遠い風景の細い影
かすれた勇気 甘すぎたキャンディ
握りしめて行く旅の途中
どこに立っても
片隅の気分だったあの頃
誰にも 自分だけしか
見つけられない
どこかで迷った夜は
ふいに涙があふれることがある
憶えていますか?
ふざけて作った歌を
震えた肩を離した事を
本当は少し悔やんだ日
古いバッグを抱えてた背中
遠く消えるまで振っていた手
「オトナになる」と
片づけることをやめた足どり
どこかで 迷った夜に
強くつ むった 瞳にあふれてく
涙が作った虹の
向こうに君の明日がそっと光る
届いていますか?
今くちずさんだ歌が
破り捨てて 貼り合わせて
折りたたんで 広げてみた
ちぎれた地図に なくせない地図に
こぼれ落ちて消えた
涙が作った虹を辿って君は
地図の果てに行ける
誰にも 自分だけしか
見つけられない遙かな場所がある
どこかで迷った夜に
強くつむった瞳にあふれてく
涙が作った虹の
向こうに君の明日がそっと光る
憶えていますか?
二人でふざけてた歌を
The lyrics to Chemistry's song 涙のあと (Namida no Ato) reflect on the journey of personal growth and self-discovery. The song begins by portraying the singer as someone who was once timid and weak, represented by a faint shadow in a distant landscape. They reminisce about the past, when they felt insignificant in any place they stood and only found solace within themselves. Yet, even in those moments of uncertainty, they believe that there is a faraway place where they can find themselves.
The lyrics then reflect on a moment of regret, when the singer let go of their trembling shoulders. Despite initially feeling remorseful, they carried an old bag on their back and waved their hand until it disappeared into the distance. They abandoned the idea of tidying up their life to become an adult and instead embraced the strength that came with getting lost. The tears that overflowed from their resolute gaze formed a rainbow, symbolizing the gentle glow of tomorrow that silently shines beyond it.
The song reminisces about a time when the two of them wrote silly songs together, suggesting a connection with another person who shared in their journey. Ultimately, the message of the song is that there is a place within oneself where only they can be found, and through overcoming challenges and following the path marked by their tears, they can discover their own tomorrow.

堂珍くんは、どこからか不思議な綺麗な音が聞こえてきた時のような
フワフワした透き通った気持ちにさせてくれる声
要くんは、自分が経験してきたこれまでの、悲しさや嬉しさ 愛しいと思った気持ち 忘れてたような気持ちをなぜか思い出して涙が出てきてしまう、そんなあったかい声。
堂珍くんがどこかでクリスタルvoice、って書かれてたけど
じゃぁ要くんはハートフルvoiceって感じかなって個人的に思ってる✨この曲も心がギュッてなるよ〜
