Sanctuary
KG and The Band Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

いつからか僕は
素直に誰かを頼れなくて
無意識のうちに
自分をさらけ出せないでいた
心のどこかで
失うことが怖くて
1人で生きれば
傷つくことも無いから
そう決めつけてたけど
かけがえのない友が
顔あげればいてくれたから
何があったとしても
大丈夫と思えたよ
現実はいつでも飲み込むばかりで
黒い絵の具で塗りつぶす涙色の空
誰かを愛したり
誰かを恨んだり
安らぐ場所探してた
need your love
どこまで行けばたどり着けるの?
この手を伸ばしたら
あの空に届くかな?
迷い彷徨い 諦めてもまだ
振り返ればいつも足跡が残ってる
そう何度でも何度でも
歩き出せる
かけがえのない友が
顔あげればいてくれたから
何があったとしても
大丈夫と思えたよ

かけがえのない友が
顔あげればいてくれたから
何があったとしても
大丈夫と思えたよ
かけがえのない場所は
生きる意味になるとわかったから




何があったとしても
大丈夫と思えたよ

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of KG and The Band's song Sanctuary speaks of the struggles of the singer in being vulnerable and relying on others. The song starts with the confession of the singer's inability to rely on someone easily, and how the fear of losing or getting hurt is holding them back from being open. They have a notion that if they stay solo, they won't get hurt. But then, they realize the significance of having friends who are irreplaceable, and how they always have their back. This realization gives them hope and makes them feel that everything will be alright no matter what happens.


The song's chorus talks about the singer's quest for a peaceful place or sanctuary where they can find refuge from their struggles and the comfort of love. They ask how far they need to go to find this sanctuary and wonder if they can reach the sky if they stretch their hands. They admit to being lost at times and feeling like giving up, but they eventually realize that they can move forward, and their friends' support and love give them the strength to do so. The song ends with the affirmation that the irreplaceable friends they have and the sanctuary they found are what give their life meaning and make them feel like everything will always be fine.

In you and I, there's a new land
Angels in flight (Wonk uoy naht noitceffa erom deen I)
My Sanctuary, my Sanctuary, ah
Where fears and lies melt away
Music will tie (Wonk uoy naht noitceffa erom deen I)
What's left of me, what's left of me now
I watch you fast asleep
All I fear means nothing
In you and I, there's a new land
Angels in flight (Wonk uoy naht noitceffa erom deen I)
My Sanctuary, my Sanctuary, ah
Where fears and lies melt away
Music will tie (Wonk uoy naht noitceffa erom deen I)
What's left of me, what's left of me
My heart's a battleground
(Snoitome eurt deen I)
(Wonk uoy naht noitceffa erom deen I)
(Snoitome eurt deen I)
You show me how to see
That nothing is whole and
Nothing is broken
In you and I, there's a new land
Angels in flight (Wonk uoy naht noitceffa erom deen I)
My Sanctuary, my Sanctuary, ah
Where fears and lies melt away
Music will tie (Wonk uoy naht noitceffa erom deen I)
What's left of me, what's left of me now
Ooh
My fears, my lies
Melt away
Ah
(Wonk uoy naht noitceffa erom deen I)
