終焉の向日葵
cocklobin Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

「暮れ行く僕らに架かるヒ色　だけど世界はいつも黒い闇のまま
僕らは何処に向かうのだろう？何を見て何を感じ何に笑い何に泣くのだろう？
一人で居たいか二人が恋しいのか三人で笑い合いたいのか？
何が正解なのだろう？太陽は意味なくそくに居続ける。
この始まったばかりの物語達を救えるのであれば君たちの手で救って欲しい。」

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of the song 終焉の向日葵 by Cocklobin talks about the darkness that always surrounds the world despite the vibrant colors that may be present. The singer questions where they are headed and what they are looking for in life. They reflect on what they see, feel, laugh about, and cry for. They ponder whether they prefer to be alone or with others, and whether they should save the story that has just begun. The lyrics suggest that there is no clear answer or right path in life, and that even the sun continues to exist without purpose. The singer pleads for the listeners to help save the story that has just begun.

Interestingly, "終焉の向日葵" can be translated to "Sunflower of Demise." Sunflowers are typically associated with positivity, happiness, and warmth. However, the use of the word "demise" suggests that there is a dark twist to this seemingly happy symbol.
