荒野流転
FictionJunction YUUKA Lyrics

The lyrics of FictionJunction YUUKA's song 荒野流転 or "Kouya Ruten" in Japanese depicts a journey that is filled with struggles, uncertainties and quests. The song opens with the image of a frozen land illuminated by moonlight, and the singer rolling and trampling on it, signifying that the journey is tough and requires great strength. The singer tells that it is the start of the era of destruction and rebirth, which emphasizes that the journey is a significant and meaningful one. The next few lines reveal the importance of freedom, even though the path taken is one that is uncharted, and the journey is more challenging during sunset, where the challenges become more prominent.

The song's chorus emphasizes that they were all born into darkness and hopelessness, like those who fall in love with someone they cannot have. Despite this, the singer and the others continue to wander towards light - even if the road never ends, they are compelled to follow and not give up. The journey is one that is filled with fear, despair, and sadness, but it is also one of beauty, hope, and wonder. The second verse reveals that each person has their own journey, which can be lonely, but everyone must continue to persevere. The singer sees a surreal image of a white flower glowing in the distance, as if beckoning towards the journey's end. The last few lines pull the listener deeper into the music, where the singer encourages them to get lost in it like the sand that drifts in the wind, even though they might disappear in an instant.
