Providence
Luna Sea Lyrics

Providence is a haunting and introspective song by the Japanese rock band, Luna Sea. The lyrics delve into the theme of societal constructs and its impact on human behavior. The opening lines paint a picture of a group of people who have forgotten their true selves as they become caught up in the façade of appearances. The ticking of time being likened to a clock that rules over the world further highlights the lack of control that individuals have over their lives. The chorus states a powerful desire to speak one's mind, but it is unclear what exactly the singer wishes to say. The song then shifts to a hypothetical situation of a mother in Eden scolding her child, which suggests that even the purest of beings are capable of showing tough love.

The second verse makes a reference to the biblical story of Noah's Ark. Building an ark during the sudden end of the world would be impossible, so instead, the singer suggests that we should not give up on fate and should break free from the limitations of time. This could be interpreted as a call for individuals to take control of their destinies instead of being slaves to societal constructs. The repeated phrase "I just want to say this" is a powerful statement that emphasizes the need for expression and the importance of being heard.
