Say Anything
X JAPAN (X) Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

sawameki dake ga
kokoro o sashite
kikoenai mune no toiki
toki o wasurete motome samayou
takanaru omoi nurashite

(Only the heart's pounding
stab my heart
the silent sight of the heart
forget the time the plea roams about
wet the though/feeling that makes
the heart pound)

Run away from reality
I've been crying in the dream

k?ritsuita toki ni furuete
yugande mieni kioku kasaneru
kanashimi ga kieru made

( Shiver in the time that was frozen
piling up distorted memories
until the grief vanishes )

* You say anything
kizutsuke au kotoba demo (the fitting word blesses
but)
say anything
tachikirenai kokoro ni (to the heart that cannot
sever)

You say anything
Just tell me all your sweet lies
say anything
enji kirenai kokoro ni (to the heart that cannot
lie)

If I can't go back to where I have been
yume no naka ni dake ikite
owaranai ame ni nureru
nagareru namida o
hakujitsuyume ni somete

(Live only in dreams
getting wet in the endless rain
colour the running tears in my day
dreams )

You say anything
wathever you like to say to me
say anything
you leave me out of my eyes
you say anything
all I can hear is voice from dream
say anything
you can dry my every tear

akari no kieta (the lights have gone out)
on the stage
hitori mitsumete
t?ritsugita
hibi ni dakareru
kowashite kure nani mo ka mo
kazatta ai mo
toki no suna ni kieru made

(staring lonely
embraced by the days that have gone
destroy(ing) everything,as well
the adorned love,
until it vanishes in the sand of time )

* repeat

Close your eyes and
I'll kill you in the rain
kirei ni koroshi aeba
z?ka no bara ni umoreta
shijin no namida wa
kioku ni nagarasete

(if a beautiful murder is fitting
the artificial rose is buried
shedding tears of a poet in
the memories)

Time may change my life
but my heart remains the same to you
time may change your heart
my love for you never changes

You say anything
kitzutsuke au kotoba demo (the fitting word blesses
but)
say anything
tachikirenai kokoro ni (to the heart that cannot
sever)

You say anything.....
say anything.......
Now you've gone away
Where can I go from here?
Say anything....
say anything......

I believed if time passes,everything turns into
beauty
If the rain stop, tears clean the scars of memory
away.
Everything starts wearing fresh colours.
Every sound beginds playing a heartful melody.
Jealousy embellishes a page of epic.
Desire is embraced in a dream





But my mind is still in chaos and......

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of X JAPAN's song "Say Anything" express the emotions of someone who is deeply hurt and looking for a way to escape reality. The first verse talks about how their heart is pounding with only the thought of their pain, and they are desperately seeking a way to forget their troubles. The second verse describes how the singer is trapped in their own dreams, unable to escape the pain and suffering of their past. They cry in their sleep, hoping to escape but unable to find relief.


The chorus is a cry for help, with the singer pleading for someone to say anything to them. They want to be told sweet lies because the truth is too painful to bear. The repeated line "you say anything" shows their desperation for anything that can help ease their pain. The bridge talks about how time may change everything in life, but their love will remain the same. The song ends with the singer's mind remaining in chaos, and they are still searching for a way to escape their pain.

hideとTaijiがいて今の成功だと思う。
確かにYOSHIKIやToshiのすごさもあるけど、石塚先生も尖ってたときあるし。
hideの「のど自慢でも出まっせ!」みたいなキャラクターなのにめちゃプロ意識高いところだったり、Taijiのとんでもない発想力とベーシストとしての技術力。
今はもういないけど、Xのバラードってhide・Taijiがいないと成立してなかったんじゃないかと思える。

いつまでもXはYOSHIKI、Toshi、hide、PATA、Taijiなんだと思う。
ひーちゃんもスゴいけどね!
でも原型はやっぱこれだよ。

と色々書き込んだけど
XからX Japanへの違和感を叩きつぶしたhideのSCARSは素晴らしいと思いました。



yuki k

say anythingを耳にすると
何も手に付かなくなる。
胸がキュンとして
いっぱいになる。
今のミュージックシーンで
そんな曲まずない。

歌詞にendless rain「終わらない雨」
が入ってるのが好き。

どんなにYOSHIKIが良い曲を作ってもやっぱりTOSHIが歌わないとただの良い曲になってしまう。この二人がかみ合うことによって最高の曲が完成するんだと思う。YOSHIKIもすごいがTOSHIのすごさもそれ以上だと思う。
