嬉しそうに息を吹きかけて
火は消えて灯りがついた
数を重ねていく度に
影のない部屋に気付いた
嬉しそうに息を吹きかけて
数を重ねていく度に
影のない部屋に気付いた
嬉しそうに息を吹きかけて
火は消えて灯りがついた
数を重ねていく度に
影のない部屋に気付いた
The lyrics to mol-74's song "バースデイ" (Birthday) convey a sense of introspection and contemplation as the singer reflects on the passing of time and the meaning of birthdays. The first stanza describes blowing out candles on a birthday cake, and as the flames are extinguished, the room is illuminated. But with each passing year, the singer becomes more aware of the emptiness in the room, as the shadows deepen and lengthen.
The repetition of the same stanza conveys the cyclical nature of life, and the realization that with each passing year, we become more aware of our mortality and the passing of time. The act of blowing out candles on a birthday cake becomes a symbol for the passage of time and the fleeting nature of life itself.
Overall, "バースデイ" is a contemplative and introspective song that invites the listener to reflect on the meaning of birthdays, and the passing of time.
