The Watcher on Woods
SALU Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
you can call me "SALU" like my dougie
いつでも君が欲しい時にCall me
okay, そのモニター越しにTalking
お隣さん見たことない
でも存在は知ってるお互い
このユーザー見たことない
でも存在は知ってるお互い
目線は下で手元にはスマートフォン
通りを望む 街の雑踏
WEBの森には無数のアカウント
Im a watcher on a wood
この森には姿はない
Im a watcher on a wood
ただ混沌と増すアイコン
You just type by your keyboard
情報は山程あるけど自分の目で探す
This is why Im a watcher on a wood
I made a verse
巷の風評も燃やしてしまう
I said burst
そのオーディオの奥Im on fire
存在価値イケてる以外ないみたい
悲しいけど
インターネット
誰もがウィンドウ越しから判断
何か違うここ日本
誹謗中傷FamousならFamousな程
ターゲットは弱者と強者
依存厨房てか名無しHaterな小僧
マーケットは誰かが操作
Im a watcher on a wood
この森には姿はない
Im a watcher on a wood
ただ混沌と増すアイコン
You just type by your keyboard
情報は山程あるけど自分の目で探す
This is why I'm a watcher on a wood
確かな情報などひとつもない
あるのは誰かのタギングと戯言だ
確かな情報が欲しけりゃおっさん
その目で、その足で探しに出なよ
小中学生の自作無修正
ustでイジメの現場生中継
都知事様クラブじゃなくてそっち取り締まれよ何が風営?
いらない情報まで拡散
偽善、デマ、ディスもうたくさん
なんだ釣りかよそのハッシュタグ

In SALU's song "The Watcher on Woods", he describes himself as a watcher who observes everything that happens on the internet. SALU encourages people to call him and talk to him, even though they may not know each other personally. He goes on to describe how people communicate through their monitors, headphones, and smartphones, and how they are constantly surrounded by countless online accounts. SALU explains that he is a watcher and he observes everything that happens online, from rumors and gossip to cyberbullying and hate speech. SALU goes on to criticize the spread of false information and urges people to verify everything they see or hear on the internet before believing it.
In the second verse, SALU emphasizes that the internet is a place where people judge each other based on what they see through their windows. He points out that people in Japan are particularly prone to cyberbullying and how it affects both the weak and the strong. SALU also mentions how easy it is for someone to manipulate the market by controlling information. In the final verse, SALU declares that the internet is full of nonsense, and people should seek solid information in real life rather than relying on social media.
Overall, SALU's "The Watcher on Woods" is a commentary on the negative aspects of the internet and how it impacts our daily lives. SALU urges people to not fall victim to online rumors and gossip and instead encourages them to verify information before believing it.
