Angel Trip
HAKUEI Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

静けさに満ちた
永遠が降りてくる
そっと指を広げれば
やわらかく触れる
光と影のように愛と絶望のように
混じりあう天使たちの嘆き
この胸の哀しみの果てへと誘う
幻に包まれ

もっと深くあなたに近づき

もっと強く伝えたい愛だけを

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to HAKUEI's song 'Angel Trip' describe a state of tranquillity that envelopes the singer, as they feel eternity descending upon them. As they gently spread their fingers, they can feel a soft touch. The lyrics liken the intertwining of love and despair to the play of light and shadow, and describe the lamentations of the angels. The singer is drawn towards the end of their sadness, shrouded in illusions. They desire to reach their loved one more deeply and convey their love with greater strength. The lyrics suggest a yearning for a connection that transcends the limits of the physical world.

The theme of the song is one of tragedy, faith, and spiritual transcendence. The lyrics express a sense of longing for something beyond what is visible to us. The song suggests that love and despair are two sides of the same coin, and that they are inextricably linked. The use of the imagery of angels adds to the transcendental tone of the song. The singer yearns to be closer to their loved one, even if it means traversing a fantastical world of illusions.
