Obscure
Dir en grey (ディルアングレイ) Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
How many hangings under the red moon "..."
How deep will it sink inside eating skin that doesn't match?
The snake makes way through the sheets and goes inside the uterus.
It can seem like a someiyoshino; a cherry blossom petal, that dances sadly.
Don't you remember?
Color of faint... the night begins and people start to awe.
Color of pomegranate... sting with the prick and disappear far away.
How many secret hangings of the premature baby tonight under the red moon "..."
Bloody Baby & Sacrifice
Don't you remember?
Color of Golden yellow... want to be the spider that stings.
Color of tears... remembering the memories.
Color of faint... the night begins and people start to awe.
Color of pomegranate... sting with the prick and disappear far away.
The lyrics of Dir En Grey's song, "Obscure," are haunting and filled with disturbing imagery. The first verse sets the tone with the question of how many hangings have occurred under the red moon. The following lines suggest a deep sense of unease and discomfort, with the idea of something going inside the uterus and eating skin that doesn't match. The second verse continues with the description of a cherry blossom petal dancing sadly, while a stain on the moon brings on vomiting at night. The chorus, "don't you remember," adds to the disorientation and confusion.
The third verse introduces new, even more disturbing imagery with the mention of secret hangings of premature babies under the red moon. The lines "Bloody Baby & Sacrifice" only add to the horror of the image painted by the lyrics. The chorus repeats, becoming more urgent in its questioning tone. The song ends with a description of colors - golden yellow and tears, followed by the same lines from the second verse about the night beginning, people starting to awe, and the pomegranate color stinging with the prick and disappearing far away.
