Aura
Kitaro Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Eyes say more than thousand words

Expose the soul that flows in me

My inner warmth, my inner bleed

My deep anxiety
This sight is where you can read

My illogical personal achemy

Falling in my stream

I can't hide, you can feel what my heart can reveal

Falling in your stream

I grow in from without finding whom

I have to see

Lies sometimes tell what is true

Inside of me, inside of you

Shaping the colour expected to be

Tone ambiguity

This sight is where we play

Our logical way

Falling in my stream

I can't hide, you can feel what my heart can reveal

Falling in your stream

I grow in from without finding whom

I have to see

So you take my beliefs that I burn inside, inside of me

So you listen endless fights, in my eyes they break and blow away

Seeing through... you can hear more than just... words I say

I can't hide, you can feel what my heart can reveal

Falling in my stream

You grow in from without finding whom





You have to see

Overall Meaning

In the song "Aura," Kitaro sings about the emotions and thoughts that can be revealed through a person's eyes. The opening line "Eyes say more than thousand words" highlights the power of nonverbal communication, emphasizing that one's eyes can reveal deep-seated feelings and innermost thoughts. The lyrics go on to convey personal struggles through phrases like "My deep anxiety" and "My inner bleed."


The second verse adds an interesting layer to the song's message, suggesting that even lies can reveal truths about a person's character. "Shaping the colour expected to be / Tone ambiguity" seems to suggest that people may present themselves in a certain way to fit societal expectations but can still reveal their true selves through their eyes.


The chorus repeats a pattern of "falling in my stream" and "falling in your stream," which can be interpreted as a metaphor for vulnerability and a mutual exchange of emotions. The phrase "Falling in my stream / I can't hide, you can feel what my heart can reveal" expresses a sense of openness, while the subsequent lines imply a mutual willingness to be vulnerable and grow together.


Overall, "Aura" tells a story of emotional transparency and the power of eye contact to reveal one's true self in a world where people may present a facade. The song's message is conveyed beautifully through Kitaro's mesmerizing instrumentals and emotive vocals.
