IV
Multi-Surface Lyrics

These lyrics are from the song "Iv" by Multi-Surface. The song reflects on the struggles and uncertainties that exist in life. The opening lines express the frustration of not being able to express one's true feelings despite having love in one's heart. It questions whether one is making progress, stepping back, or simply standing still. The image of carrying dreams on one's shoulders and walking straight portrays determination and perseverance.

The next verse suggests that the singer is living with courage, but still feels a sense of unfinished business. The phrase "口笛は空へ" (whistling to the sky) represents a feeling of being unable to fully release these unresolved emotions. The repetition of this line emphasizes the depth of the sentiment.

The following lines describe the singer and others looking up at the rain-soaked sky, where the moon seems to be making excuses. The metaphor of a wolf in the right eye and a rabbit in the left eye symbolizes the conflicting emotions and constant back-and-forth that the singer experiences. The mention of the sun in the west and the full moon in the east poses a question about which one to believe, possibly referencing the struggle to find truth or meaning in life.

The next part addresses someone named JESUS, asking why they cried and what kind of past they saw through a different window. If the past is more dazzling than the present, it suggests that the future is uncertain. However, the singer and others have the potential to become the wind, to transform and adapt. The repetition of "Well..." reflects a pause or hesitation, perhaps indicating a longing for a peaceful morning or a sense of resolution.

The final lines speak to both the young and the young at heart, encouraging them to persevere and fight for a brighter future. The repetition of the word "Well..." could serve as a reminder to take a moment to reflect and gather strength before continuing on this journey. The song captures a sense of struggle, determination, and hope in the face of uncertainty and challenges.
