Wheel of fortune
T.M. Revolution Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
消えてく訳じゃない 瞬間が光を呼び醒ます
君が望んだ風を往け
しょうもない御託ばかり並べても
空になる中味じゃ もう戻らない
限界を撃ち抜いても 崩れないものが明日なんだろう
巡らせ魂 揺ぎ無い速さよ 生命であれ
消えてく訳じゃない 瞬間が光を呼び醒ます
荒れすさぶ大地で
君が望んだ君を往け
締め付けて 取りづらくて 距離は微妙
夢ごとき 甘さに身を 尖らせて
気高い炎のような欲望を描き出す
ひたむきに追い詰めたら 汚れた腕さえ 赦されてる
駆ける稲妻衝撃を心に灼きつけてく
見えぬ祝福が 信じる者の背に そびえてる
荒れすさぶ大地で
神が目指した道を往け
The lyrics of T.M. Revolution's song Wheel of Fortune describe a call to action, urging the listener to overcome obstacles and pursue their dreams with all their might. The first verse speaks of a relentless spirit and an unwavering speed, which will keep one's life from fading away. Moments, the song says, have the power to awaken the light within oneself, and the chorus implores the listener to take the wind they desire and soar with it. The second verse critiques empty words and calls to pay attention to the contents that matter, for once they are gone, they cannot be recovered. It then urges the listener to look beyond pleasure and overcome their limits, for what does not crumble after being fired upon is what tomorrow is made of.
The bridge of the song describes a delicate balance between the things that hold us back and the dreams that drive us forward. The distance to our goals may be difficult to grasp, and our desires may sharpen our edges like a dream, but it is essential to paint a picture of ourselves that evokes a noble desire. By doing so, even stained arms can be forgivingly excused. The final verses describe lightning bolts that etch a powerful shock into our hearts, and the blessing that is invisible but lofty, towering above those who believe in it. In the end, the song calls once more to traverse the rugged wasteland, pursuing the path that the gods themselves strived for.
