名前も知らない
キミのこと思い出すよ
さよなら ユニバース
僕はもう ここを出るよ

誰の声も今は聞こえない
宇宙船の窓から星を見る
言葉も交さず
キミのこと あきらめるよ
さよなら ユニバース
少しだけ涙が出た

いなくなった事も気づかない
宇宙船でこのまま光になる

誰の声も今は聞こえない
宇宙船の窓から星を見る




いなくなった事も気づかない
宇宙船でこのまま光になる

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to The Pillows' "さよならユニバース" ("Goodbye Universe") convey a sense of longing and departure. The singer doesn't even know the name of the person they are thinking about, but they can't help but remember them as they say goodbye to the universe. The lack of communication between the two is palpable, as they part ways without exchanging any words. The singer resigns themselves to giving up on the person they are leaving behind, and sheds a few tears as they do so.


As the singer looks out the window of their spaceship, they can no longer hear anyone's voice. They are left alone with their thoughts and the vast expanse of space before them. Even as they depart, they don't seem to fully realize that what they are leaving behind (or who they are leaving behind) is gone forever. In the end, the singer feels as though they are becoming part of the light itself, merging with the universe they are leaving behind.


Overall, the lyrics to "さよならユニバース" are a poignant meditation on leaving someone or something behind. The singer is both sad and resigned as they say goodbye, and they seem to be wrestling with the realization that what they thought they had might not have been real to begin with.
