Escape
TRUSTRICK Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
生まれ直した 産声で歌う
泣きたいくらい ここは静かね
誰も居ない いや 誰も要らない
あたしはどうして 報われないのに
傷ついてみたり 喜んでみるのか
¥そのすべてが生きるということ¥
解釈が違う行動 太陽は
月を 待って 決まって 咲いた
Escape from monochrome はじまりの切先
描き出した先端に 極彩色
つま先が触れる その未開の秘密
呆れるほど鈍感に 心 壊さないで
敵陣と同じ 他人事の街へ
あなたが言うなら 笑いに行きましょう
演じるほどに 分からなくなった
アイデンティティという 愛すべき面倒
逃しただけ 何度も
誰もが時を 待って 変わってしまった
Escape from monochrome 心無いフレーズ
忘れたい情景は 薄彩色
夜明け前 明日を前に無力でも
思い出してよ感覚を 心 壊さないで
nowhere,
Escape from monochrome
Escape from monochrome
from the world
nowhere,
Escape from monochrome
Escape from monochrome
Escape from monochrome
from the world
Escape from monochrome!
Escape from monochrome はじまりの切先
描き出した先端に 極彩色
つま先が触れる その未開の秘密
呆れるほど鈍感に 心 壊さないで
思い出して あなたの感覚を
The song “Escape” by TRUSTRICK is a reflective piece about the search for meaning and purpose in life. The first verse describes the singer’s rebirth and need to sing out their new beginnings, but also their struggle to find peace in the quietness of solitude. The lyrics express a sense of isolation and feelings of being unwanted, despite the singer’s efforts to find redemption. The second verse questions the value of experiencing happiness and pain when they ultimately lead to no reward, and begs for a new perspective that can provide hope.
The chorus is a call to escape the monotony of life and explore the unknown with vibrant and colorful experiences. The use of the term “monochrome” suggests a dull and colorless life that needs to be transformed by new and exciting experiences. The lyrics encourage the listener to not let their heart become numb to the world by reminiscing about past sensations and experiences. The final repetition of “Escape from monochrome” is a bold statement that urges the listener to escape from the mediocrity of everyday life and seek a more fulfilling existence.
Interestingly, the song's music video features a character who seems to be lost and searching for direction in a city that has become monochrome. The character experiences a transformation after encountering a colorful butterfly, and from that point on, begins to see the world in color.
