狭い部屋
odol Lyrics

The lyrics to odol's song "狭い部屋" (Sekai Heya) delve into themes of longing, dissatisfaction, and the search for meaning and purpose in life. The singer describes a scene where they are baring their chest, showing a mole, while the person they are addressing smiles and says, "I like it." The room appears narrow, possibly symbolizing the limitations and restrictions they feel in their current situation. They wonder if it is because there are many useless things they can't let go of.

The second verse expresses a desire to be taken somewhere unknown, indicating a yearning for change and new experiences. The singer reflects on how they have been lying down for so long, questioning how much longer they will remain in this stagnant state. The words float in the air, like tea stains on a carpet, symbolizing the lingering impact of what has been said or left unsaid. The singer realizes that what they have been searching for, more than anything else, is something that is accessible to anyone, anywhere.

The changing seasons seem to pass by more rapidly, leaving the singer feeling disoriented and questioning their whereabouts. They wonder how they used to spend their days and express frustration with those who write songs about a "shining future," not understanding their perspective. The words continue to float and linger, like a mole on their chest that won't disappear. Despite the accessibility of what they have been searching for, the words lose their direction and accumulate heavy air, as if they only stack up without purpose. Yet, everything naturally becomes a song, highlighting the irony of the search for something more significant.
