Salt
Taichi Mukai Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
汗ばむ肌がさらに熱く
What's Going On? 君はどこ?
手探りで探してみても
I'm Ready To Go Right Now
今すぐに ここから逃げなきゃ
I'm Ready To Go Right Now
あの高いそらのまた向こう
太陽の届かない場所
ここは僕には合わないみたい
あの高い場所へ飛んで行こう
You Don't Care
今にも失われてしまいそうで
What's Going On?
いつまでも続く悪い夢のよう
I'm Ready To Go Right Now
今すぐに 背中に手を伸ばし
I'm Ready To Go Right Now
どこまでも ああ, また飛べそう
あの高いそらのまた向こう
太陽の届かない場所
誰も邪魔など出来ないから
あの高い場所へ飛んでいこう
いつまで続く もうすぐ届く
いつまで続く もうすぐ届く
The song SALT by Taichi Mukai talks about wanting to escape from the current situation and find a place where he belongs. He describes the atmosphere as humid and his skin sweaty, which shows the physical discomfort he is experiencing. He is trying to find someone, but it seems that he is lost and helpless in this search. He feels like he needs to flee from this place immediately and go somewhere where he feels he belongs. This has been his long-standing desire, and he is now ready to act on it. He talks about a place beyond the high sky where the sun does not reach, which he thinks is suitable for him. He invites someone to join him in his journey towards that place where no one can disturb them.
The song has a deeper meaning that goes beyond its surface-level interpretation. It talks about the universal desire to find a place where one feels accepted and belongs. It can relate to anyone who feels lost or uncomfortable in their current situation and wants to find a place they can call their own. The use of vivid imagery, such as the humid air, sweaty skin, and inaccessible places, creates a vivid picture of the emotions that the singer is experiencing.
