Isolation
Mika Nakashima [中島美嘉] Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
ただ彷徨い歩き続けて
色を無くした哀れなアタシは
折れた羽で胸を突く
見つめているのは輝く frozen moon
砕け散る優しい手でこの躰
抱きしめて慰めてよいつの日か
網膜の奥張り付いてる
先の見えない城壁を独り
ただひたすら登り続けて
闇に投げ出す時間の鍵束
サイレンサーで撃ち抜いた
溺れるアタシの願いは届くの
張り裂けるアタシの核宙に舞う
遠ざかる時の彼方
Darkness in the sky
胸の中に張り付いてる
記憶の波アナタの顔
砕け散る優しい手でこの躰
抱きしめて慰めてよいつの日か
貴女は誰貴方は誰ちゃんと答えて
貴方は何処私は何処
The lyrics to the song "Isolation" by Mika Nakashima explore feelings of loneliness and hopelessness. The lyrics describe a world that is blue and devoid of sound, where the singer is wandering aimlessly. The singer has lost all color and feels pity for herself as she tries to push forward with broken wings. The frozen moon is the only thing shining in this bleak world. The memories of the person she loves are buried in her retina, and she can't seem to find their shadow anywhere. She tries to escape this world but is met with a wall that she can't see past. It's a hopeless situation, and the violence of the world feels as though it's closing in, but even in the midst of it all, the singer clings to the memory and the hope that one day she'll be able to find comfort in the arms of her loved one.
The second verse of the song describes the singer's continued struggles to escape her world of isolation, with the lyrics "climbing up the walls where the future can't be seen." She's desperately searching for a way out and seems to think that her only hope will be found in the love and support of her loved one. The line, "the key to the time thrown into darkness" speaks to the feeling of being lost and lost in time. The singer feels as though she's drowning and can't find a way out, but she knows that she needs to keep pushing forward. Even though the memories of her loved one are seemingly fading into the distance, she's still holding onto the hope that they'll be reunited someday.
