Sanctuary
KENN Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
霞む 現実 心隠して
刻まれた意味を 変わらない今日を 思い出す
世界が溶けていく 見つめ合った刹那
君の存在が 全てを物語る
行き場のない 想いを拭えずに 漂う
その手をつかんで 強く抱きしめた
夢の中で 微笑みかけている 会いにいけたら…
揺れる 瞳に熱を感じて
夜の 足音 かき消すように
刻みこむ道を 変えられる明日を 思い描く
求めれば消えゆく 響いてる囁き
君の存在が 全てを物語る
確かめたいのに 確かめられずに
うつむいてる 花はただ綺麗に咲いてる
静寂を纏い 誰も踏み込めない
爪痕を 指先でなぞって 静かに眠る
近づきたいのに 近づけないまま
行き場のない 想いを拭えずに 漂う
その手をつかんで 強く抱きしめた
夢の中で 微笑みかけている 会いにいけたら…
Kenn's song "Sanctuary," describes feelings of longing and desire to be close to someone, even though it seems impossible. The first verse speaks of the desire to hide away with this person into a dream world, to forget about the chaos of reality. The lyrics paint a picture of a world that's melting away, and in that moment of looking at each other, everything is suddenly clear. The song expresses the idea that a single moment can reveal the true nature of things.
The second verse alludes to the possibility of change in the future, despite the impossibility of connection now. The lyrics convey a sense of determination and hope despite the present circumstances. It speaks to the idea that seeking and hoping for something can sometimes make it disappear, and it's a delicate balance between proximity and absence.
The chorus expresses a longing to hold and embrace someone, even if only in a dream. The singer wants to close the gap between themselves and the other person. The lyrics speak to the idea of a sanctuary being a place of safety and freedom, and the singer is seeking it out with this person.
Overall, the song is about longing and the desire for connection with someone in a world that feels full of chaos and confusion.

I find it wonderful the way music can speak to you without actually being able to understand it.

I loved the game. Played through Ryouta's route and it was very interesting and just drew you into the story. Gotta get through the rest of the characters. It was a bit hard since I'm not fluent in Japanese so I only understood about 70% lol but it was an interesting game. I recommend it
