When
Kogarashi Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Oh, sorry if I am coming rude to you, isn't it what you deserve though?
It took some time to really start to see, and that is what you really fear of
You don't have a place for the show nor a seat on my table
All you've done to me is harm, you're cold hearted and shallow
It took some time to really start to see, and that is what you really fear of
Because you know me
You lived in your own reality, a shame it turned out warped
You thought you had forgotten the key, but never wondered if it was stolen
Now that I claimed my positivity, it's me who you are afraid of
When I got free, when I got me
The lyrics of Kogarashi's song "When" tell a story of empowerment and self-discovery after leaving a toxic relationship or situation. The singer begins by expressing that they will never forget the hurtful words that were said to them before they walked out the door. They apologize for potentially coming across as rude, but acknowledge that the other person deserved it for their actions.
As time passes, the singer starts to gain clarity and understands that the other person feared them truly seeing the situation for what it was. The lyrics further imply that the other person doesn't have a place in the singer's life anymore and has caused nothing but harm. They are described as cold-hearted and shallow.
The song emphasizes the importance of the singer's own growth and self-discovery. They have gained a sense of positivity and claim ownership over their newfound freedom and self-identity.

Yeah, if it wasn't for Sagiri, she might have been the best girl in the anime.

This anime is the 2010s equivalent of Rosario+Vampire.
