しけた Monday
触れた途端溶ける夢
頭巡る架空のデータ
膨らむたび not better
欲しくもない楽な平和
お互い求め憂いて放射
あなたに受け入れられるたび
密かに また lonely lonely go back
引き寄せた間違いなどない
疑うなよ壊れた声に黙ってる
改札通り抜け無になる数秒に
街はガラリと背を向ける
腕を組む影が揺れ
暮れてゆく風まかせ
はっと流れる 君の声は
空に向かおうと
ただ手を伸ばして
甘やかしの御託並べて
夏休みまた春が過ぎ
短すぎた夢を呼び起こす
Shooting star
あなたに受け入れられるたび
密かに また lonely lonely go back
絶え間ないかけらを眺めて
崩しあい 見失うのは
Lonely lonely go back
また lonely lonely go back
もとどおり慣れない二人の温度
Lonely lonely go back
また lonely lonely go back
すり合わせた
掛け違えたまま
増えていくのは
背くらべのためノウハウ
ぎこちない 帰り道
窓に透ける冷めた朝と街の声
誰かのために
繰り返される タイムリミット 止めて
今夜は長い夢に浮かんで
いつまでも大事にしてきたはずの思いさえも
溶け出せば鮮やかね誰のもの?
あなたに受け入れられるたび
密かに また lonely lonely go back
絶え間ないかけらを眺めて
崩しあい 見失うのは oh
Lonely lonely go back
また lonely lonely go back
もとどおり慣れない二人の温度
Lonely lonely go back
また lonely lonely go back
The lyrics to Iri's song "Go back" speak about the feeling of loneliness that can come from wanting to return to past memories and moments in life. The first verse discusses the feeling of being stuck in a cycle where every time you think you have found happiness, it quickly melts away. The use of the phrase "lonely lonely go back" throughout the song highlights the feeling of being alone in one's desire to return to the past. The second verse describes the struggle of coming to terms with mistakes made and the fear of being judged by others. The imagery of passing through a train station turnstile and the city turning its back on you emphasizes this feeling of isolation.
The chorus emphasizes the struggle to hold on to memories and emotions that were once precious and important to you. The line "shooting star" is likely a reference to the fleeting nature of these moments, like a shooting star that is only visible for a few seconds before disappearing. The bridge of the song talks about the struggle of trying to hold on to something that is slipping away.
Overall, "Go back" is a song that speaks to the universal feeling of nostalgia and the desire to return to moments in the past. The lyrics touch on the isolation and loneliness that can come with this desire, as well as the struggle to come to terms with change and let go of the past.

3年前の自粛期間からiriさんのファンです。深夜に部屋に引きこもってiriさんの曲を聴きながらただただ自分に酔っていたことや、夕暮れを部屋の窓から見ながらいつコロナが終わるんだろう、と考えていたことを思い出しました。 家から出れないストレスや不安を軽減させてくれたiriさんの楽曲達に本当に感謝しています。今回も日常に優しさを付け加えてくれるような、素敵な音楽です。沢山聴かせていただきます。
