JUDEA
exist†trace Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Folded bodies, room of reeking flesh.
Dimly sense, slightly a suicide desire.
Let me free... there's chain strangle entrails
Let me free... there's chain all over my heart

Dance in restraint...

saiai no kimi e tsutaetai omoi afuredashite

saikai no basho e chikara tsuyoku habatakeru

ano hi kara ore no karada wa karukunatta you dakara

ashikubi no kase wa mou nanimo imi wo nasazu ni





"saiai no kimi e"

Overall Meaning

The opening lyrics of exist†trace's song "JUDEA" paint a vivid and gruesome picture of a room filled with the stench of decomposition, and the singer herself, seemingly trapped within it. The lyrics suggest a desire to be set free from the chains that both physically and emotionally bind her, and the repeated plea to be let go is an indication of the singer's growing desperation. The line "dance in restraint" suggests a struggle against these restraints, but ultimately being unable to break free.


In the subsequent verses, the lyrics shift to a message directed towards a loved one. The singer expresses overflowing emotions that she wants to convey to her lover, as well as a desire to fly towards their reunion with all her strength. The lines "my body has become light since that day" suggest a possible allusion to some event in the past that has left the singer feeling hollow.

They were't put together by a corporation for the "we need female VK" demand, they didn't try to be cute, no chipmunk voice, just straight heavy music by some kickass women. Thats why they were so beloved in the past.

Exist Trace, Dir en grey & The Gazette, Pure nostalgic.

@CryEnGrey

when i first watched this video, and most videos of exist trace after, i was 1000% sure that i was and still am, in fact, a huge lesbian.

@faytherogue1708

What choice did you have? You watched an Exist Trace music video. Of course you are. If only you had been a Taylor Swift fan, you could be properly into dudes instead!
