遠く鳴り響く　この地の小さな結晶
見えない言葉探して　闇を描く

近く鳴り響く　この血の大きいな裂傷
築けない気づかない言葉　病みを描く
この地は冴えない　黒い翼に囲まれた
鳴り止まない声達は　悲劇を願う

to the answer I’ve always been searching for
この鐘を待つ

輝く程に照らした　その傷刻み込んで
闇の中で　君を写す　さぁこの声よ響け　huh hey
fall on ones knees
途切れた願いを紡いで道を探す
祈り温もりを

「I given」
希望に満ちた声を　僕らは世界に写して　
闇の頬にkiss 絶望にkiss　跪くだけの世界「god be with me」
fall on ones knees
見えないもの　僕らは見つけたよ
きっと　きっと鳴り響く　新しい鐘が

to the answer I’ve always been searching for
この音を待つ

「跪け　あの太陽に」

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Cocklobin's song "Fall on one's knees" seem to explore the themes of longing for something one cannot quite name or put into words, and the struggle to find meaning and hope in the face of darkness and pain. The opening line speaks of a small crystalline entity resonating in the distance, perhaps representing a distant glimmer of hope or an ideal that the singer is striving towards. However, they also mention the struggle to find words that can capture the darkness around them, suggesting a sense of despair and difficulty in expressing oneself.

The following lines speak of a deep wound that cannot be healed or put into words. The pain is all-consuming and the singer feels unable to articulate it adequately. They describe a bleak landscape surrounded by dark wings, and voices that do not stop crying out for tragedy. The singer seeks an answer to their questions, but it is unclear what that answer might be, as they simply talk of waiting for a bell to sound.

The chorus seems to suggest a small glimmer of hope amidst the darkness. The light from a shining wound illuminates the world, and the singer wishes for their voice to resonate in the darkness. They urge the listener to fall on their knees and spin a hope out of their interrupted wishes. They seek warmth and comfort from their prayers, which provide them with some measure of solace.

Overall, the lyrics of "Fall on one's knees" by Cocklobin paint a picture of deep despair and longing, but also suggest that there might be some hope or comfort to be found in prayer and faith.
