Abyss
Sora Amamiya Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
笑っていたんだ 痛みを忘れるため
自分を誤摩化せば 強くなれると信じて
ひび割れた仮面を握りしめて
なぜか震えてた
よろめき立ち尽くす足下には
光も音も届かぬ場所へ 消えゆく君の声
零れ落ちたその涙は 微かに温かくて
必死に手を伸ばした 見失わぬように
気付いていたんだ 救いを求めてたこと
耳を閉ざしても 胸の奥に響いてた
傷口を顧みることもなく
なぜか笑ってた
引き換えになくしたものは何？
大切にしてたものは何処？
光も音も届かぬ場所へ 消えゆく君の声
零れ落ちたその涙は 微かに温かくて
夢中で手を伸ばした 消えてしまわぬように
お願い 何処へも行かないで
ごめんね もう1人にしないから
深い闇の向こう側に一度だけ
一度だけ小さな灯りが見えた
痛みも傷もただ受け止めて 壊れそうな君は何処？
ずっと1人 泣いてた君を もう一度抱きしめさせて
光も音も届かぬ場所へ 消えゆく君の背に
あと少しで もう少しで 指先がきっと届くから
必死に手を伸ばすよ
何度でも抱きしめるよ
永遠の暗闇から 救い出せるように
The lyrics of Sora Amamiya's song "Abyss" talk about a person who is slowly disappearing into a place where no light or sound can reach. This person tried to forget their pain by putting on a mask and pretending they were strong. However, despite their efforts, they still found themselves shaking with fear and standing still in a despairing darkness where even hope seemed to have no meaning. The chorus highlights the desperation of the singer to hold on to the fading voice of the person they are talking about, as they reach out their hand multiple times to prevent them from completely disappearing into that abyss.
The second verse of the song reveals that, despite their efforts to shut out any hope or comfort, this person was seeking salvation and crying out for help from the bottom of their heart. They were trying to keep their pain and wounds buried deep inside while putting up a facade of laughter. But, in doing so, they lost sight of what was precious and important to them. In the bridge, the singer pleads with this person not to go anywhere and to stay by their side, promising to hold them tight and save them from the eternal darkness.
This song seems to highlight the struggles of a person who is trying to appear strong despite feeling lost and alone in their pain, as well as the hopelessness and fear that arise when faced with the abyss. The lyrics touch on the themes of despair, hope, and salvation, all while showcasing Sora Amamiya's incredible vocal range and expressive delivery.
