The Dark
cocklobin Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
麗らかに晴れた空 鮮やかに映す鳥達
風の香りとこの幸せを望む少女のメモリー
far side
いつもの雨かと溜息に溺れ死ぬ鳥達
風の香りとこの欲望を望む少女のメモリー
視界の回る闇に立つ彩る鴉達
黒の香りとこの絶望を望む少女のストーリー
I want you dark side
さぁ 浮かぼう いつもの夜を
渡って見えない雨達
come on dark side
さぁ 沈もう いつもの朝を
渡って見えない日々達
溢れた虹の光を目指し
貴方の遠い明日を駆けて
背 苦の色 身の色 血の色
流した涙の欠片集め
君に咲いた闇を塞ごう
「もういいの？もういいの？」
もういいよ
The song "The Dark" by Cocklobin delves into the themes of duality and contrast. The lyrics describe a beautiful, clear sky reflecting colorful birds and a girl who desires the happiness that comes with the wind's fragrance. However, the second stanza introduces darkness, where birds drown in sighs mistaking it for their usual rain while the girl desires her wants and wishes to be granted with the fragrance of black. The final stanza deals with the desolate darkness that the girl craves while standing among colorful crows. Her story of despair that marks the contrast between her insatiable desires of wanting the light and pursuing the darkness become apparent.
The song speaks of the inner turmoil of someone who can't choose between light and darkness, and in the end, they give in to the latter. There is also an idea of chasing the unattainable, as the girl seeks to experience the darkness that can never be fulfilled by the light. The lyrics express the importance of embracing our darker side, acknowledging that it is a part of us.
