SEAWEED
Suchmos Lyrics

These lyrics are from the song SEAWEED by the Japanese band Suchmos. The opening lines translate to "I'm already sick of it, it's always the same. Irritating, repetitive, and numb. Lined up in rows, deceived, lying down in the market, numb." The singer is expressing their boredom and frustration with the monotony of daily life, comparing it to being like seaweed lying in a market. The repetition of the line "A (few many) A (few many) A (few many) hai, sosoritai" can be interpreted as the singer feeling trapped in a cycle they can't escape.

The chorus repeats the phrase "hands like a seaweed," which can be interpreted in a number of ways. The imagery of seaweed implies something that is limp and motionless, swaying with the currents of the sea, and the singer is using this metaphor to describe their own mental state - "swaying brain, withered and twisted, only withering." The repetition of this phrase emphasizes the feeling of being trapped and stagnant, like the seaweed that can't escape the tides.

In the second verse, the singer continues to express their feelings of monotony and boredom, saying that their everyday life is "ordinary, accumulating, and absent." They feel like they're just going through the motions and wasting their time. The repeated phrase "A (few many) A (few many) A (few many) hai, sosoritai" becomes more urgent as the song goes on, implying a growing desire to break free from the cycle they're stuck in.

Overall, the lyrics of SEAWEED capture a feeling that many people can relate to - the sense of being stuck in a rut, going through the motions without really living. The metaphor of seaweed emphasizes the feeling of being stuck and motionless, while the urgency of the repeated phrase suggests a growing desire for change.
