Aimai Elegy
DECO*27 Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

「どうやら 泣きすぎたみたい」
とキミは笑う
どうにも笑えない。
こうにも笑えないよ。
たぶん、裏たぶん
アタシのとある言葉のせい
いや、気のせい?
脳の味噌も
呆れてます。

そろそろ助けようか
恐怖も引き連れてさ
雑巾絞るように
勇気もアレしちゃおう
だけどさ怖いんだよ
ガタがアシアシだよ
フラフラで そのまま堕ちる
溺れるのが怖かったの
エラ呼吸など出来ないから
キミが立てるその波紋に
揺られ酔って
逃げようと足掻いてた

なんとか逃げ出して
無音で「ごめん」を言う
「これで大満足」
言い訳はこれにしよう
一歩、また一歩と
キミから離れるたび
泡のように浮かぶ
二人の淡い笑顔
やっぱ助けるよ 逃げないから
アタシの息あげる
そう、相対のチュー
会いたいです。二つの息で○○
さて飛び込むよ んで飲み込むよ
その悲しみ全て
さあ息を止めて
ついでに二人の時も止めて
溢れるなら
零れるなら
このアタシが その涙を
飲み干そうか
そうしようか
水太りは
気にしないけど
塩辛いのは
ちと辛いな
だってアタシ 甘党だし
だからキミの 甘い愛が
また欲しいから




目を覚まして 欲しいな
泳ぐエレジー

Overall Meaning

The song Aimai Elegy by DECO*27 featuring marina speaks of a tumultuous and complicated relationship between two individuals, with one partner trying to escape the other's grasp, but ultimately failing. The lyrics "どうやら泣きすぎたみたい" (it seems like I cried too much) capture the essence of the singer's emotions, as she tries to mask the pain with laughter. However, the laughter is short-lived, and she realizes that the situation is anything but funny. The line "溺れるのが怖かったの" (I was scared of drowning) symbolizes the singer's vulnerability and her fear of being trapped in the turbulent emotions of her partner. She finds solace in the idea of escaping but realizes that she lacks the strength and courage to do so.


As the song progresses, the singer comes to terms with the fact that she cannot escape the situation and decides to face it head-on. In the lines "やっぱ助けるよ 逃げないから アタシの息あげる" (I'll save you, I won't run away, I'll give you my breath), she acknowledges her love and affection for her partner and takes a leap of faith to save the relationship. However, the final line "泳ぐエレジー" (swimming elegy) can be interpreted in two different ways - as a metaphor for drowning in the relationship or as an ode to the strength required to swim against the tide and save it.


Overall, Aimai Elegy is a poignant and emotional song that deals with complex themes like love, vulnerability, and courage.


Line by Line Meaning

「どうやら 泣きすぎたみたい」 とキミは笑う
You say "Seems like you've cried too much", and laugh but it's not a laughing matter. In fact, it's far from it. Maybe it's because of something I said, or maybe I'm just imagining things. But my brain is exhausted.


そろそろ助けようか 恐怖も引き連れてさ 雑巾絞るように 勇気もアレしちゃおう だけどさ怖いんだよ
It's time to help you out, even if it means facing my own fears. I might have to wring out my courage like a dirty rag, but I'll do it. Even though I'm scared.


ガタがアシアシだよ フラフラで そのまま堕ちる 溺れるのが怖かったの エラ呼吸など出来ないから キミが立てるその波紋に 揺られ酔って 逃げようと足掻いてた
I was unstable and falling apart, afraid of drowning because I couldn't catch my breath. I was swayed and dizzy by the ripples you made, struggling desperately to escape.


なんとか逃げ出して 無音で「ごめん」を言う 「これで大満足」 言い訳はこれにしよう
I managed to escape and apologized quietly. "I'm satisfied now." I thought to myself, trying to justify my actions.


一歩、また一歩と キミから離れるたび 泡のように浮かぶ 二人の淡い笑顔 やっぱ助けるよ 逃げないから
With each step I take away from you, our fleeting smiles and reminiscences appear in my mind like bubbles. I won't run away anymore, I'll be there for you.


アタシの息あげる そう、相対のチュー 会いたいです。二つの息で○○ さて飛び込むよ んで飲み込むよ
I breathe in and we kiss. I want to be with you and feel our breaths come together. So I jump in and take it all in.


その悲しみ全て さあ息を止めて ついでに二人の時も止めて 溢れるなら 零れるなら このアタシが その涙を 飲み干そうか そうしようか
Let's hold our breaths and try to stop time, and if your sadness overflows or spills out, I'll drink it up. I mean it, I will.


水太りは 気にしないけど 塩辛いのは ちと辛いな だってアタシ 甘党だし だからキミの 甘い愛が また欲しいから 目を覚まして 欲しいな 泳ぐエレジー
Weight gain from water doesn't bother me, but saltiness is a bit hard to swallow. After all, I have a sweet tooth, and that's why I want your sweet love again. I want you to wake up and join me, swimming in this elegy.

aaaa marina's voice sounds so good

shintarouee

Love the singer's voice and the animation. what's the animator's recent works if they have any??

arie dawson

+Shintarouee well, the actual animator (trio amatou) is two people (well, three, technically, if you include deco themselves as a member of the trio.)
akka draws the illustrations, and mirto creates the video itself, while deco makes the music.

the most recent illustration work that akka has done was for otogibanashi in 2013, and the last pv that mirto has made was for sasakure.UK's patchwork eden.
