Iris
ave/new feat. Saori Sakura Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

And I'd give up forever to touch you
'Cause I know that you feel me somehow
You're the closest to heaven that I'll ever be
And I don't want to go home right now

And all I can taste is this moment
And all I can breathe is your life
'Cause sooner or later it's over
I just don't want to miss you tonight

And I don't want the world to see me
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am

And you can't fight the tears that ain't coming
Or the moment of truth in your lies
When everything feels like the movies

Yeah you bleed just to know you're alive

And I don't want the world to see me
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am

And I don't want the world to see me
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am

And I don't want the world to see me
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am

I just want you to know who I am




I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of "Iris" by ave/new feat. Saori Sakura express the intensity of wanting to be close to someone who feels unreachable yet remains the closest to heaven that the singer will ever be. The singer would give up anything just to touch this person, even if only for a moment. The moment they share together is what matters, and the singer doesn't want to miss any of it. The lyrics also suggest that the singer is hiding something from the rest of the world and that this special person is the only one that can truly understand and accept them for who they are. The idea of bleeding to know that one is truly alive is another powerful metaphor used in the song that emphasizes the pain and raw emotion of the specific love that the singer feels.


The repetition of certain verses in the chorus of the song ("And I don't want the world to see me, 'Cause I don't think that they'd understand, When everything's made to be broken, I just want you to know who I am") illuminates the central theme of the song -- that the love between the two people is something that is only known between them and that no one else could possibly understand it. The singer is willing to bleed for this love, to hold onto it, and to keep it hidden away from the rest of the world.


Overall, "Iris" is a song that deals with the deep emotions of love and the desire for a personal relationship that is unique and not bound by social restrictions. The song powerfully explores the idea of finding one's place in the world through another person and the pain and joy that can come with that journey.
