Inner Journey Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
ダメになりそうで不安で仕方ないけれど
下を向いても足元が見えているならば
大丈夫だまだ進んでいるから
歩く歩く歩き疲れて
眠る眠るただ夢を見る
走る走る走り続ける
信号の青い光は点滅したまま
爪先は交互に脈を打つように進む
知らない風に吹かれ変わらない空を見て
高鳴る鼓動のリズムに身をまかせ
歩く歩く歩き疲れて
眠る眠るまた夢を見る
願う願う願いは止まぬ
この夜空はいつまでも変わらないままで
歩く歩く歩き疲れて
眠る眠るまた夢を見る
走る走る走り続ける
恐れるものはないと口笛を吹きながら
The lyrics of Inner Journey's Walking Song talks about taking a journey without having a specific destination in mind. The singer of the song is uncertain and anxious as they go along, but they take solace in the fact that they can still see their feet as they walk. This gives them the assurance that they are still moving forward. The song emphasizes the idea of taking one step at a time, persevering despite feeling tired and uncertain. Even when the traffic lights continue to blink blue, and they feel the wind blowing against them, they keep moving with the rhythm of their heartbeat. The singer exhorts themselves to keep going, telling themselves that there is nothing to fear, and humming a tune as they jog along. The song ends on the same note of walking until one is tired, sleeping to dream, running until one can't run anymore, all while fearlessly humming a tune.
The song Walking Song emphasizes the journey of life and how one does not necessarily need to have a clear destination to embark on a journey. Life is an unpredictable journey, and one may face many doubts and uncertainties.

The singer draws strength from small acts, such as seeing their feet as they walk and the rhythm of their heartbeat.
