Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Mitsudo ga tamesa re teru
Shingo ga kurikaeshi
Jikan ni nose rarete ku
Rainbow Spectrum
Rainbow Spectrum
Antena ni noizu o hiroi
Sabishi toki ni kasaneru omoio
Mimimoto ni kanaderu merodi
nijiiro ni irodzuke shi tari
Mienaimono ni kajika no atai
Shuhasu o hikari no obi ni
PURIZUMU ni hika reru seori
Mienu obi o komaneku shodo
The lyrics of SuzumeTune's song Spectrum describe a message that is both personal and philosophical, addressing themes of conformity and individuality. The first verse suggests that the rules set by society, represented by the "kisoku", are being carried out and enforced by the "mitsudo". Meanwhile, the "shingo" or heart of the person is repeating itself over and over again, only to be governed by time.
This is contrasted with the chorus, which repeats the phrase "Rainbow Spectrum" to indicate a more colorful and multifaceted existence. The following verses describe how the "antena" or antenna of a radio can pick up noises during lonely times, but also how the "shuhasu" or number of people have their own unique melody that resonates with the sky. The second verse also mentions the "nijiiro" or rainbow color, which is dyed and the value of being seen to those that cannot see it.
Overall, the song speaks to the human experience of conforming to societal norms and pressures, but also the importance of finding individuality and embracing diversity. It reminds the listener that each person has their own unique melody and color, which should be celebrated and shared.
