Sayaka Yamamoto Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
時は過ぎてく 孤独だけを感じて
Tell me why?
迷路のような いりくんだ世界
どこに向かってるんだろう
Ah 夢をみた
それはまるでバタフライ
So far あの空へ
だから強くなれ
カラダ解き放て
涙 流す場合じゃない
変わりたいのなら
もし変われるなら
どんな時も
現実(いま)にトキめいていたい
Ah 羽ばたいて
Hey 気づかなかった
自分の胸に 穴が開いていたこと
Don't you know?
空を見ないで 殼にこもっていた
まるで蛹(サナギ)のように
Ah 過去の自分
脱ぎ去っていけたなら
So far 高くても
その壁を越えていきたい
だから輝いて
ココロ解き放て
信じればいいその鼓動を
回り道だって
新しい景色さ
どんな時も
現実(いま)を感じていたい
誰も知らない君だけの世界
たどり着けるよ
きっときっと 輝く羽根で
だから強くなれ
カラダ解き放て
涙 流す場合じゃない
変わりたいのなら
もし変われるなら
どんな時も
現実(いま)にトキめいていたい
Ah 羽ばたくのあの空へ
この羽根で
The song "Wings" by Sayaka Yamamoto encompasses the themes of self-discovery and empowerment in the midst of loneliness and confusion. The lyrics describe the feeling of being lost and alone in a world that feels like a maze, but also the hope that one can break free from their shell and soar towards their dreams. The opening lines "Hey, tachidomatteita/Toki wa sugiteku, kodoku dake wo kanjite" communicate a sense of stagnation and isolation that the singer feels. Despite time passing and things changing, they still feel alone in the world. However, the chorus "Dakara tsuyoku nare/Karada tokihanate/Namida nagasu baai janai/Kawaritai no nara/Moshi kawareru nara" provides a message of strength and resilience as they urge themselves to break free from their shell, release their body and emotions, and focus on the present to achieve their desired change.
The song's uplifting and motivational message is not only conveyed through its lyrics but also its upbeat and catchy melody. Sayaka Yamamoto's distinct and powerful vocals add further emotion and depth to the song. Moreover, the song's title "Wings" can be interpreted as a metaphor for the singer's personal growth and ability to fly freely towards their goals.
