Origami
Kristof Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
We'll make it back to Japan
To fall in tears with cherry blossoms
Or learn how to make
Origami
Is it possible or
Should I should draw
To travel by boat
Origami
At that point I should have really should known
Why people looking the crow I used to feed all day long
Origami
Is it possible or
Should I should draw
A very very black field
To run through forests
I know
We're like them
We can no more look back
I should tell
It's a wonderful start
Wondering how
We make it back to Japan
To give the message
To the one
That he's been hiding in yards
Origami
Is it possible or
Should I should draw
A very very yellow pillow
Turn my dreams into gold
Origami
We don't care
We can no more look back
I should tell
It's a wonderful start
Paper flowers
Paper planes
Paper toys
Paper cranes
Paper names
Paper hearts
It's time to Make everything from scratch
Wondering how
we'll make it back to Japan
To fall in tears with cherry blossoms
Or learn how to make
Is it possible or should I
Should tell
We can always relate
But we'll be never the same
But we'll be never the same
Origami
The lyrics of "Origami" by Kristof appear to be about a longing to return to Japan and explore the beauty and traditions of the culture, specifically through the art of origami. The singer wonders how they will make it back to Japan and experience the emotions of falling into tears under cherry blossoms or learning how to create origami. There is a sense of possibility, as they contemplate whether drawing a dark or black sea can be a way to transport themselves to Japan through their imagination and artwork. The mention of a crow they used to feed suggests the presence of a lost connection or memory associated with the past, represented by the act of creating origami.
The lyrics propose the idea of drawing a black field to run through forests, symbolizing the desire to immerse oneself in nature and explore the unknown. The singer compares themselves to the story of origami, indicating that they are like the paper, resilient and adaptable, and they cannot look back anymore. It is emphasized that their journey is a wonderful start, suggesting a newfound sense of purpose or adventure.
The song continues to express the longing to deliver a message to someone who has been hiding in yards, possibly indicating a desire to reach out and reconnect. The idea of turning dreams into gold, through the metaphor of a very yellow pillow, suggests the power of imagination and creativity.
The repetition of the chorus reinforces the theme of being open to new experiences and embracing change. The mention of paper flowers, planes, toys, cranes, names, and hearts exemplifies the versatility of origami and ties into the overall message of making everything from scratch. The song concludes with the realization that even though they can always relate to others, they can never be the same, emphasizing the unique and personal journey each individual takes.
