Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
乾いた涙が溢れ出す
生きるために嘘を続けるよりも
このメロディ繰り返し響かせて
痛みはきっと消えてくから
少しも途切れずに聴かせて
今もし鼓膜の震えが止まったら
俺の心はもう壊れてしまうだろう
頼りないね今日は
その偽りの姿
諦めと引き換えに
もう誰も気にしないさ
条件反射と正しさについて
放して縛る優しさはいらないの
忘れた夢の続きが見たくて
真実を知る強さを下さい
あなたの声に力を借りて
乾いた涙が溢れ出す
生きるために嘘を続けるよりも
このメロディ繰り返し響かせて
痛みはきっと消えてくから
少しも途切れずに聴かせて
今もし鼓膜の震えが止まったら
俺の心はもう壊れてしまうだろう
凍りついていく
凍りついていく
凍りついていく
もう殺してしまえ
はっきりそう思った
そんな経験くらい
誰にでもあるだろ right?
自分だけは聖人
なんてそんな柄じゃない
流れ星一つ
ただ詩人でありたかった
語り口聞いてわかるだろ 俺は瘋癲
風に聞いたゆくあて
みんな同じ定め?
どうせなんとなく 別にいいや
心閉じた うすら涙
千と一夜 どこまでも砂漠
一人向き合った
本当に好きなモノは何か?
本当に恐ろしいモノは
一体なんなのか?
わからないでこの命
終わってしまうんだろうか?
おまえを愛する気持ちに
理由なんてあるのか?
この世に生まれ必死
出会うヒトは支え合う
時にヒトは傷つき
奪い合ってもサバイブ
どっちも見てきた
この目で 儚げ oh god!
祈り届け 導いて 光よ消えないで
条件反射と正しさについて
離して縛る優しさはいらないの
忘れた夢の続きが見たくて
真実を知る強さを下さい
あなたの声に力を借りて
乾いた涙が溢れ出す
生きるために嘘を続けるよりも
このメロディ繰り返し響かせて
痛みはきっと消えてくから
少しも途切れずに聴かせて
今もし鼓膜の震えが止まったら
俺の心はもう壊れてしまうだろう
凍りついていく
凍りついていく
凍りついていく
星はそっとささやき

あの日信じた奇跡
今こそ Unchained Melody
The song "Unchained Melody" by Dean Fujioka is a cover of the famous 1955 song by The Righteous Brothers. The lyrics of the song talk about relying on the voice of the person being addressed to help overcome pain and sadness. The first stanza talks about how the listener's voice can help release pent-up emotions and tears, and how the melody of the song can help alleviate pain. The second stanza talks about rejecting false facades and accepting the truth, which will require strength that can come from the person's voice. The song ends with a declaration that stars can whisper and sadness can be dissolved, and that the miracle that was once believed in can be found again in the "Unchained Melody."
Overall, the song is about finding solace in music and the voice of a loved one, and how that can help overcome pain and sadness. The lyrics speak of the need for honesty and strength to face difficult times, and the soothing and healing power of music.

With the help of your voice
Dry tears overflow
Rather than keep lying to live
Repeat this melody echoed
The pain will surely disappear
Let me hear it without interruption at all
Now if the trembling of the eardrum stops
My heart will already be broken
I can not rely on today.
That fake figure
In exchange for giving up
I do not care anyone anymore
About Conditional Reflection and Correctness
I do not need the kindness to free and bind
I wanted to see the continuation of the dream I forgot
Please give me the strength to know the truth
With the help of your voice
Dry tears overflow
Rather than keep lying to live
Repeat this melody echoed
The pain will surely disappear
Let me hear it without interruption at all
Now if the trembling of the eardrum stops
My heart will already be broken
To freeze
Once I killed it, I thought so clearly
Anyone like that experience that right?
Saints alone are not such patterns
Shooting star I wanted to be just a poet
I can understand by listening to the storyteller I am genuin
Wanting to ask the wind Is it all the same as ever?
Irregularly closed my heart somewhat differently anyway
A thousand and a night Over the desert
What faces you who really fell like?
What on earth are really horrible things?
Do not know, will this life end?
Are there reasons to feel like loving you?
Born in this world desperately encounters Human beings support each other
Sometimes human beings hurt and scramble to survive
Either way I've been seeing you with this eyes oh god!
Lead your prayers and lead us light, do not disappear
About Conditional Reflection and Correctness
I do not need kindness to bind away
I wanted to see the continuation of the dream I forgot
Please give me the strength to know the truth
With the help of your voice
Dry tears overflow
Rather than keep lying to live
Repeat this melody echoed
The pain will surely disappear
Let me hear it without interruption at all
Now if the trembling of the eardrum stops
My heart will already be broken
To freeze
Stars softly whisper
Sorrow melts away
Miracles that I believed on that day
Now is the Unchained Melody
