OVER & OVER
L⇔R Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
的外れな物 蹴り上げてたから
いつも すれ違う 夜を 眺めて
何も見えなくなるのさ
君は 僕に 一言
"Over ＆ Over Again"
時には 忘れてる 言葉もいいさ
投げ出してしまう そんな事が
今日も 消えかけた 夜を 眺めて
何も言えなくなるのさ
君は 僕に 一言
"Never You'll Never Again"
時には 追いかける 言葉も いいさ
もしも曖昧に 全て失くしても
君は先回りしてるよ
君を困らせる 僕のリズム
僕が写し出す 君のあきれ顔
今も 空回る 声に 揺られて
何も聞けなくなるのさ
そして 僕に 一言
"Show Me ＆ Show Me Again"
気まぐれなつもりで いても いいさ
いつも すれ違う 夜を 眺めて
何も見えなくなるのさ
君は 僕に一言
"Over ＆ Over Again"
時には 忘れてる 言葉も いいさ
The lyrics to L⇔R's 'Over & Over' song present a sense of monotony and frustration in the singer's emotional state, characterized by constant repetition and lack of progress towards a more fulfilling life. The singer feels lost, blindly kicking things that don't seem to hit the mark in the dark. They spend their nights watching passerby that they don't seem to fit into, feeling alienated and disconnected from everything around them.
The singer's partner enters the picture, uttering the words "Over & Over Again," as if mocking the singer's lack of change. The singer's mind becomes a prison where nothing they say can be heard. They feel the weight of the world on their shoulders, sigh as they reminisce about the days when they couldn't have said "Never You'll Never Again." Perhaps they have realized the gravity of the situation, realizing how little progress they have made over the years.
The song shifts its tone slightly in the third verse, where the singer starts to question their self-imposed exile. Their partner asks them to "Show Me & Show Me Again," perhaps in response to the singer's wallowing in self-pity. The singer acknowledges that they have been watching the same night over and over, but they reassure their partner that they can change, that even though they may be lost, their partner is still ahead of them.
