Shame
Dark en ciel Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I know you yearn and crave
I feel the way you sway
Your wooden eyes now cry
Why being that saturnine
Your smile hides wounds and sins
You live in others dreams
Chaos running through our head
This circle has no end
This circle has no end
Can you feel the shame?
Make things the same now?
Can you feel the shame?
Make things the same now?
I ache for crystal lands
and dreams we never touched
I know you are tired of roam
who is noxious anymore
Don't grime your hands
We could crawl
Ashtray from that way
Stumble each day
Can you feel the shame?
Make things the same now?
Can you feel the shame?
Make things the same now?
Can you feel the shame?




Can you feel the shame?
Make...

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of the song Shame by Dark en Ciel convey a sense of sorrow and pain as well as the desire to escape from it. The opening lines express a recognition and understanding of the emotions of another person; the singer acknowledges that the subject of the song yearns and craves, and they can feel the way they sway. The wooden eyes of the subject indicate a sense of numbness, while their smile hides wounds and sins. The subject's life is characterized by chaos, and the cycle seems never-ending. The refrain, "Can you feel the shame? Make things the same now?" seems to imply a desire for change, a desire to shake things up and move forward.


The second half of the song expresses the singer's own desires and frustrations. They ache for crystal lands and untouchable dreams, perhaps a reference to unattainable desires or unfulfilled longings. The subject, who may have once been a source of comfort or support for the singer, is now seen as noxious and a source of pain. Despite this, the singer implores the subject not to give up and to crawl forward with them. The ashtray is a symbol of decay and a reminder that things are not always pretty, but the line "stumble each day" seems to indicate that it's okay to make mistakes and that failure is a part of the process.


Overall, the lyrics of Shame are open to interpretation, but they seem to express a sense of frustration and the desire to escape from a cycle of pain and shame. The singer empathizes with the subject of the song and recognizes their struggles while also expressing their own desires and frustrations.
