Anata ni shindemo ayamete hoshiku mo nai onegai
Unmei sae nomikomare shizumisou na umi e to
Negai yo kaze ni notte yoake no kane wo narase yo
Tori no you ni My wishes over their airspace
Musuu no nami wo koe asu e tachimukau anata wo mamoritamae My life I trade it for your pain
Arasoi yo tomare!
Nee hito wa doushite kurikaeshi ayamachi wo kasaneteku?
Shinka shinai dare ni mo nagareru kono chi ga daikirai
Honnou de sabakiau dare no demo nai daichi de
Sumiwataru mirai ga kita nara kusabana mo heiki ni yadoru darou
My wishes over their airspace
Dareka yuriokoshite warui yume kara samashite yo
Kanau no nara My life I trade it for your pain
Dore dake inoreba ten ni todoku?
Ima asayake ga unabara to watashi wo utsusu
Negai yo kaze ni notte yoake no kane wo narase yo
Tori no you ni My wishes over their airspace
Musuu no nami wo koe asu e tachimukau anata wo mamoritamae
My life I trade it for your pain
Furimukazu habatake kono omoi wo hakonde ano sora wo tondeku
Mirai wa dare ni mo uchiotosenai
The lyrics to "DAYBREAK'S BELL" by L'Arc-en-Ciel express a deep sense of melancholy and longing for love, interwoven with themes of fate, redemption, and hope. The song seems to center around a protagonist who has never experienced the kind of connection and love they long for, wondering why they have never had a meeting that feels so special. The singer is resolute in their desire to make up for their mistakes and make amends with the person they love, even if they were to die. The lyrical imagery of being swallowed by an abyss and a resolve to protect their loved one at all costs adds a dark undercurrent to the themes of love and hope.
The chorus suggests the idea of wishing on the wind and hoping for a better tomorrow, while the verses imply a sense of struggle and conflict as the singer questions why people repeat their mistakes and expresses a general distaste for the world. The final lines seem to suggest a sense of optimism as the singer declares their intent to soar into the sky with their feelings, declaring that nothing can stop them from creating their own future.
