My Dead Girlfriend Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
悲しい目をして
笑う声も、全てを
気にせずいられたら、楽なのに
気にせずいられたら、楽なのに
君といたこと
消えないように
届かない思い
あのこが消えた
悲しい目をして
笑う声も、全てを
気にせずいられたら、楽なのに
気にせずいられたら、楽なのに
君といたこと
消えないように
届かない思い
残したままで
These lyrics are from My Dead Girlfriend's song Shadow Where It Doesn't Disappear. The overall theme of the song is about missing someone after they're gone and feeling the regret of not being able to fully appreciate them when they were still around. In the opening lines, the singer expresses their sadness and states that if they could just laugh without worry and be with their loved one again, everything would be easier. They wish that their memories of the time spent with their deceased girlfriend would not fade away and that they could still be with her.
The chorus has a melancholic tone as the singer continues to lament about their lost love. They repeat the same lines about wanting their memories of her to not disappear and their feelings that they were unable to convey. The song ends on a unresolved note as if the singer is still holding onto the past and the feelings of regret.
Overall, the song captures the raw emotions of grief and longing for someone who has passed away. The simple melody and lyrics add a sense of vulnerability and sadness to the piece.
