George & G. Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
物語なき毎日を
続けてゆくなんて困難だ
あぁ そっか
そうやってやればいいんだ
あぁ 何だ
考えたこともなかった
新しい出会いや出来事が
そう思っていた
灯火に触れたかった そんな
遠回しの感傷で
ゾートロープの中 覗いてみたい
あぁ そっか
そうやってやればいいんだ
あぁ 何だ
考えたこともなかった
未開封のままで封じ込めた
可愛いげの無い本能と
言い訳を飼い慣らしてきた
また言うの まだ言うの
また言うの まだ
観たいシーン集めた映画のような
物語なき毎日を
続けてゆくなんて困難だ
あぁ そっか
そうやってやればいいんだ
あぁ 何だ
考えたこともなかった
新しい出会いや 出来事が
もたらせるのは混沌と後遺症だけ
そう思っていた
これじゃない これじゃない感
これじゃない これじゃない感
これじゃない これじゃない感
これじゃない これじゃない感
これじゃない これじゃない感
これじゃない これじゃない感
これじゃない これじゃない感
これじゃない これじゃない感
These lyrics explore the challenges and frustrations of living a mundane and story-less everyday life. The first paragraph talks about collecting scenes like a movie, emphasizing the desire for a more exciting and adventurous narrative. The singer acknowledges that continuing such a life is difficult, but then realizes that maybe that's what they should do. This suggests that they should actively create their own story and seek new experiences, which is something they hadn't considered before.
The second paragraph reflects on the longing to touch the light, symbolizing a desire for something beyond the ordinary. The mention of a zoetrope, a device that creates the illusion of motion, represents a desire to see what lies beyond their current perspective. The singer again realizes that by pursuing these desires, they may be able to break free from their unfulfilled and restrained instincts and excuses.
The third paragraph repeats the sentiment of the first, emphasizing the difficulty of continuing a daily life without a compelling story. However, the singer resolves to follow the approach they discovered earlier. They conclude that the chaos and consequences that new encounters and events can bring are the only things capable of creating a sense of excitement and fulfillment, contradicting their previous belief.
The repetition of "これじゃない これじゃない感" in the last four lines seems to express a sense of dissatisfaction and frustration. It suggests that the current state of their life, characterized by monotony and lack of meaning, is not what they desire. The repetition reinforces their longing for something different and signals a yearning for change and a shift away from the unsatisfactory status quo.
