Amber
Urusei Yatsura Lyrics

There's no such thing as young
Age is just another label society puts on us

They just treat us wrong
Society treats young people unfairly and without respect

I had a friend who died
The singer has experienced loss and death first-hand

I had another friend
The singer has had multiple friends throughout their life

Who stayed alive
One of the singer's friends did not die

So what's the use in crying
Crying does not change anything

It's a kind of lie
Crying can be a form of deception, masking one's true emotions

Explaining takes too long
The singer feels like it is difficult to express themselves or communicate their thoughts to others

And no one listens
The singer's attempts to be heard by others have been unsuccessful

To the words in songs
Even when the singer expresses themselves through music, few people pay attention to their lyrics or message

And every night's the same
The singer is stuck in a monotonous routine with little variation or excitement

And every song's the same
The singer feels like their music lacks originality and is repetitive

And everything you say
The singer's attempts to communicate with others fall on deaf ears

Just slips into the dark
The singer's words or feelings do not receive any acknowledgement or response

And falls away
The singer's messages or emotions fade away or are forgotten

I went into a room
The singer went somewhere alone to reflect or be by themselves

There was something to do
The singer had a task or chore they needed to complete

The light was turning grey
The room was becoming darker or duller, reflecting the singer's mood

I don't recall the things
The singer has difficulty remembering what they said or did in this moment

I had to say
The singer had something they needed to express or communicate
