サバト
MEJIBRAY Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Lose…作り上げたSuccess 生き抜く義務はない
Lose…You give a lie.
Lose…委ねたJudgment 認める義務はない
Lose…笑う I give you a lie.
割れた鏡の上で足を切る
サバト…君は何故あの頃のように
罪を背負い苦悩するのか?
サバト…君は何故あの頃のように
夢を這わすのだろう?
僕を裁けサバト
Lose…いずれ消えゆく記憶に星はない
Lose…求める静寂「吐き気」に意味はない?
Lose…君の言葉に乱されたくはない
Lose…You give a lie.
ペンタグラムの上で身を任す
やっと触れ合えた…哀
サバト…君は何故あの頃のように
僕を求め涙するのか?
サバト…君は何故あの頃のように
陰を隠すのだろう?
僕を騙せサバト
Lose…
Lose…永遠という名の誓約は…?
Lose…
Lose…You give me a lie.
サバト…君は何故あの頃のように
僕のエゴを受け入れるのか?
サバト…君は何故あの頃のように
闇を摘むのだろう?
サバト…君は何故あの頃のように
未来地図を破るのだろう?
サバト…君は何故あの頃のように
僕を傷付けるの?
僕を愛せサバト
The lyrics of Mejibray's song "サバト" describes a person who is feeling betrayed and hurt by someone they care about. The first two lines of the song states that the success the person has built is meaningless and that they have no obligation to survive. The "lose" throughout the song represents the pain and lies that this person has been given by someone they trusted. The person doesn't want to be influenced by the lies they are being told, and in the chorus, they ask why the person they love is carrying so much guilt, and why they are hiding in the shadows. The word "サバト" in the song lyrics refers to the word "sabbath" in English, which can mean a religious weekly observance or a gathering of witches.
The lines "割れた鏡の上で足を切る その傷の理由は哀", translates to "I cut my feet on the broken mirror, the reason for my wound is sorrow." This depicts the pain the person is feeling, which is compared to the cuts on their feet. In the second verse, the person surrenders their body on the pentagram, but it's not clear if this is meant to be a reference to a specific ritual or if it's used as a metaphor for being vulnerable with someone. The final lines of the song show the person pleading with the other person to love and accept them.
Overall, the song seems to be about heartbreak and deceit, with the use of occult symbolism throughout serving to heighten the sense of darkness and despair.

Pretty wicked, though I'm not sure whether I like the screeching-like screams in between... Instrumentals and chorus vocals are not bad though.~
Vanny Vanilli
the chorus always reminds me of ViViD XDD

Well they're much better than ViViD. And they're an underground visual hard rock band not some pretty visual boyband.
