あれやこれや言いますが どうか探してみせて
ウソと本音の間 上手く隠しといたんで

一人じゃダメな同士で 二人になればハッピー
そのうち二人が嫌で 「一人がいい」とか言って

固定のしようもない感情の 行き着く先はどこでしょう
溺れそうになった代償に また酸素を見つけちゃうんだ

弱虫だね 堕ちることが 心地良くてさ

アイマイにしたいのさ
好きでいたって 歪んでく内声
アイマイにしたいのさ
嫌いになってしまえたら 大成功

一人じゃダメな同士で 二人になればハッピー
そのうち二人が嫌で 「一人がいい」とか言って

どうせなら僕がもう一人 いたならそれはそれでハッピーだ
今日は僕が女の子 演じ合ってバカみたいにさ

エゴママだと知りながらも ヤメラレナイのさ

アイマイにしたいのさ
好きでいたって 歪んでく内声(ないしょう)
アイマイにしたいのさ
嫌いになってしまえたら成功

バイバイをしたいのさ
僕でいたって 楽しくないんだ
大概にしたいのさ
もう、もう、もう

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of DECO*27's song Streaming Heart depict a complicated relationship of two individuals who cannot be alone and yet when together, they cannot stand each other as well. The first stanza talks about the confusion between lies and truth and the need for the other person to help find the boundaries of the relationship. The next lines reveal the dependence of the two individuals on each other's company to be happy, but eventually, one of them will end up wanting to be alone. The following lyrics portray the uncertainty of where the emotions are leading and how sometimes it takes a price to understand their true value.


The chorus is about wanting to play oblivious and create ambiguity in the relationship. There is a desire to love distortedly and to be able to hate and overcome easily. The second stanza begins with the same lines from the first but ends with a small twist. One of them wishes to have another partner to be happy and imagines being a woman to play foolishly. The lyrics about the "bird of ego" reveal that the individual knows their flawed mentality yet cannot stop being selfish. The last lines of the chorus and the ending of the song express the feelings of wanting to say goodbye and be free for once.

解釈します!!
男の人は女の人のことを好きになった。
しかし、自分も大切で女の人と自分をどちらを取るかまよっている。
アイマイにして女の人から嫌われてしまえば自分も楽になれる。
そして、もう一人の自分を作り女の人の代わりだと思い込めばいい。
エゴママ(ワガママかける相手)だと知りながらもやめられない。
(この時のミクは、浮気相手ではなく二人の心の動きを表しています。
なので、どうせなら僕が〜、、の時のミクは男の人の心。
女の人に棒を渡してる時のは女の人の心。)
そして、女の人は棒でやっつけているわけではなく心の中に閉じこもってしまった男の人を助けようとしています。なので男の人は笑っているのです。
最後の、バイバイにしたいのさもう…のところでやっと女の人が助けます。

長文すいません。
お役に立てたら光栄です。

Streaming Heart - English Lyrics

Though the things I say might not make sense
Please, I beg you, go and find me
In the space between the truth and lies
I am hidden away from selfish eyes

For the two of us, so useless alone
Together, we were oh-so-happy
But in that way we both became discontent
Said we both were better lonely

So as for all these feelings that I just can't resolve
If I leave them alone will all of them dissolve?
Almost drowning, I attempted to gasp for air
And tried to reach out for your hand but you weren't there

A coward through and through
This feeling as I fall
Is better than the feel of you

I wanna get rid of this love
All my thoughts are drowned out, distorted by these elegies
I wanna get rid of this love
And if I could make you despise me, that would be so great

For the two of us, so useless alone
Together, we were oh-so-happy
But in that way we both became discontent
Said we both were better lonely

If I could finally be all by myself again
Then that would be, then I could be happy once again
So putting on the guise of someone who's not in love
I put a show on with that boy, and was it fun

I know I'm acting out of ego selfishness
But I don't think that I will stop

I wanna get rid of this love
All my thoughts are drowned out, distorted by these elegies
I wanna get rid of this love
And if I could make you despise me, that would be great

I wanna make this our goodbye
Even if being by myself is constant suffering
I don't wanna step out of line
But it's all, yes it's all, oh it's all... AHHH!

All the things I say now, don't they make sense?
Even if you try and find me
In the space between the truth and lies
I am hidden away from your two eyes

There are so many theories on this, here is mine:

*This song is on the boy's POV, judging how the song uses 'boku' for 'I', and with the translation in accordance to the timing of the song.

In the beginning of the song, where it roughly says 'that though he says many things, he would like someone looking for his real self' (like sending mixed messages to another person to reveal a secret) could establish that he is conflicted with himself (notice how there are three signs saying 'Don't come', 'Look', and 'Well come', in which the first contradicts the other two) and closes himself up to the one he is in a relationship with, hence random things (a cage, an elevator door, etc.) closing up on him. In the end, it is said that his real self is 'hidden away so well in a jumble of lies and truths', with the girl appearing just behind all these cages the boy has shut himself within. Then, a Miku clutching the heart could be seen. (It is important to note how this Miku has puffy sleeves and has a magenta stripe on her chest, like Zatsune to differentiate the two Mikus in the PV)

Then, in the first part, it reveals how the boy starts off a relationship normally (they 'bring themselves together'), but as time goes by, he starts fearing that something could go wrong and 'comes to hate the connection that was made', wanting to be left alone and find oxygen (as he is 'nearly drowning' with the implications, the 'oxygen to breathe' roughly symbolizing "freedom") to breathe. He knows himself that by doing this, he is acting like a 'weakling', and, with the PV's vague representation of a Miku wearing a heart mask being bandaged (as in wrapping his feelings or heart away) starts closing his feelings up, and tries to make the relationship fall down the drain ('this falling feeling could be so pleasant' or thinking that breaking up can make him feel better)

In the chorus, he states that he 'wants to close down the curtain on this love' (end the relationship 'for good') and that 'his inner voice is being warped by their relationship' (he doesn't believe that the girl really loves him. Notice how the 'distortion' is on the girl and not him) and then wraps her in bandages like he did with his heart (Miku) to keep her away and restrain her from going deeper into his heart, silently hoping that in this way, he could 'make way to hatred' and thus successfully tear each other away. The relationship, as shown by the large heart, is then 'bound away' or 'restrained'.

In the next line, after the repetition of how he comes to dislike the relationship, he thinks that if he were to pretend to be someone else (the heart shaped mask he is wearing), 'things will be better off', and plays the 'side of a fool' (knowing that it will not work for the better) with himself (the Miku who is about to kiss his masked self). The girl, meanwhile, decides that she will break her way in, her heart (the normal-looking Miku) making her more determined (as shown by Miku handing her a crowbar to 'break the binds'), while it is later revealed that the boy's feelings is starting to get the better of him (as Miku, his heart, is now the puppeteer and not him).

In the following chorus, the cages and binds are thrown away one by one (representing that his walls are now breaking down as his feelings leak through and at the same time as the girl forces herself in), as he repeats to himself how he wants to end the relationship (with the girl breaking in further, only wanting to smack some sense into him, while he vainly tries to push her away and 'bind her away'). Later on, while the girl goes in deeper, he says he 'wants to say that last goodbye' to his false self and finally open up, seeing the pure determination of his girlfriend to get to his real self, noting that 'being this "me" is not fun' (he was not enjoying hiding his true self) as the girl finally reaches through the final layer of the 'cage' and hits him with the crowbar, throwing him away into the air (revealing his true self and opening up to her), at the same time the bandages on the heart is removed, revealing the girl's Miku holding a heart.

In the ending, there is no one shown to be caged inside (the boy) and locked away (the girl), revealing that finally their relationship is no longer 'bandaged'.

Again, this is only a theory, so I apologize for any mistakes.
