Black
Syrufit ft. Mei Ayakura Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

描いた夢大きすぎて
小さなスケッチブック
何度も塗り潰してた
綺麗なはずの未来が
いつしか黒く染まっていた
幾重に重なる線は
何処にも繋がらなくて
途切れた道

指でなぞれば滲んでいくだけ
ぼやける視界
消して全てをはじめからなんて
やり直せない
空を切り取り貼りつけただけの
真似事は嫌だ
自分自身を認められたなら
きっと
やっと見つけた色で描いても
透明だった
形ないから掴めないのかな




描けない夢
見えなくて 描いて

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Syrufit ft. Mei Ayakura's song Black describe the struggles and frustration of trying to achieve one's dreams. The opening lines talk about how the dream is too big to fit in a small notebook, and how the singer repeatedly tries to draw and paint it, but it becomes black instead of the beautiful future they had envisioned. The multiple lines that don't connect and the interrupted path signify the difficulties and obstacles that stand in the way of reaching one's dreams.


The second stanza talks about the blurry vision that is left when trying to erase everything and start over, and how it's impossible to recreate everything from scratch. The singer expresses their distaste for copying something as simple as cutting and pasting a piece of the sky and acknowledges that they cannot capture their dreams by imitating something else. The last few lines suggest that the singer is recognizing that they need to accept themselves before they can truly create something beautiful, and that their dreams may be intangible or invisible, but can still be pursued.


Overall, the lyrics to Black connote the struggles and internal turmoil one faces while pursuing their dreams, and how it's a process of accepting oneself and overcoming obstacles in order to achieve them.
