Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
どこかに置き忘れた夢
Can't you see? 眩しさの狭間でずっと
待ち続ける brighter future
情熱を刻む day and night
求めてる 脱ぎ捨てる there are no more rules
羽ばたいてゆく
You're waking me up 明日へYou're waking me up 両手を
広げて感じて
You're waking me up, up, up, up, up
You're waking me up
音の渦に身を任せて (you're waking me up)
君に響くように
You're waking me up, up, up, up, up, up
生まれ変わる look at me now
You're waking me up
誰にも真似できない melody
どこからか溢れる energy
Can't you hear? 響く鼓動の始まり
待ち続けた彼方に
広い空駆ける speed and sound
求めてる 走り出す there are no more rules
羽ばたいてゆく
You're waking me up 明日へ
You're waking me up いま light up
You're waking me up, up, up, up, up, up
強い光かざして
You're waking me up
時を止めて風に乗って (you're waking me up)
君に届くように
You're waking me up, up, up, up, up, up生まれ変わる look at me now
You're waking me up
迷い続けた日々もいつか昨日になり
何度も朝を呼び覚ます
You're waking me up (up)
You're waking me up (up)
You're waking me up (up)
You're waking me up, up, up, up, up
You're waking me up 明日へ
You're waking me up いま light up
You're waking me up, up, up, up, up, up
強い光かざして
You're waking me up
音の渦に身を任せて (you're waking me up)
君に響くように
You're waking me up, up, up, up, up, up
生まれ変わる look at me now
You're waking me up, up, up, up, up
"The Waking" is a song that conveys a sense of being awakened or freed from a state of sleep or stagnation. The lyrics describe the repeated cycle of sleep and waking up, with the dream being forgotten somewhere along the way. The opening lines suggest that between the blinding brightness and the desire for a brighter future, the singer has been waiting. The lyrics also speak of carving passion day and night and the desire to break free from rules. The act of awakening is portrayed as the act of spreading one's hands and embracing the feeling. The imagery of sound and melody is used to convey the energy that cannot be replicated by anyone else, along with the pulsating heartbeat that marks the beginning of something long-awaited. There is a sense of running towards this dream with speed and sound, breaking the rules and soaring. The chorus repeats the idea of waking up and looking towards the future, with strong light shining and time stopping as the singer reaches out to the person who has been resonating in their heart. The lyrics suggest a transformation or rebirth, leaving behind the days of confusion and calling forth morning repeatedly.
