Screw Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Cry of regret denies existence
Im not holding on to life anymore
Fall in a faint...
Kitsuku musubareta kubiwo sonzaiga mata jamawo suru
Chissoku shisouna hodo kyokuyaga osou
Hartsukeni saretamama fukai shinchuu hisomu rettoukan
My blood is a frozen blue rose
Netsuga samete fuyuushita aiwo dareshimo torikaesenai
Naze yobisamasu koeni
Mada nukumoriwo idaku?
Sou kawareru iki jigoku...
Hold ones breath for fear
Masquerade as a human face
Hartsukeni saretamama fukai shinchuu hisomu rettoukan
My blood is a frozen blue rose
Netsuga samete fuyuushita aiwo dareshimo torikaesenai
Mata kokyuuga midarete usureru ishiga ima tamerawasu
Hitoridewa ikisaemo suenai orewo kono genmuga sarau
Naze yobisamasu koeni
Mada nukumoriwo idaku?
Sou kawareru iki jigoku...
Hold ones breath for fear
The song "Dyspnea" by SCREW talks about the struggle of the singer, who is tormented by their past mistakes and regrets. The opening lines "Cry of regret that still continues, cry of regret denies existence" suggest that the singer is trapped in a cycle of regret which they cannot escape from. They continue to hear the cry of their past mistakes, which makes them deny their own existence.
The second verse talks about the singer's feeling of being lost in a world of deception. They feel like they have to hide their true self and wear a mask (masquerade) to fit in with society. The line "my blood is a frozen blue rose" suggests that the singer's emotions have been frozen and they cannot feel anything anymore. It seems like they have given up on love and cannot find warmth in any relationship.
The chorus repeats the phrase "Hold one's breath for fear" which implies that the singer is too scared to confront their past regrets and face the pain they caused. The bridge talks about the singer's struggle to live in a world that constantly reminds them of their past mistakes. They feel like they cannot breathe and their existence is being suffocated by the weight of their regrets.
Overall, "Dyspnea" is a song that reflects the struggle of a person who is haunted by their past mistakes and cannot escape the torment of their own regrets.
