Money
side-b Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

思い褪せるあの日の言葉
そっと巻いて
朝を待てぬぼくらは歪んだ
太陽を待つさ
節操無いほど前にそっぼ向いて
感情交じり描いて
体中声と化して
再起の灯りを月下に燈そう
このままずっと生活しても
意味がない
僕の頭ん中は音楽と服装だ
街へくりだして かっこつけて
楽しい生活するんだ
親の金だ 罪悪感
あとにふりかかる 重い責任
遠ざかってもいい
思いのまま生きていく
それが楽しい 誰も邪魔するな
再起の灯りを 月下に燈そう
再期の灯りを 心に燈そう

節操無いほど前にそっぼ向いて
勘定交じり描いて
体中声と化して
再起の灯りを月下に燈そう
遠ざかってもいい
思いのまま生きていく
それが楽しい 誰も邪魔するな

再起の灯りを 月下に燈そう
再期の灯りを 心に燈そう

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Side-B's "Money" explore themes of nostalgia, ambition, and the struggle between personal desires and societal expectations. The opening lines reflect on words from the past, suggesting a longing for simpler or more meaningful times. The imagery of "wrapping" these memories signifies an attempt to shield oneself from the harsh realities of the present. The mention of waiting for the sun portrays both hope and impatience; it implies a desire to transcend current hardships and connect with brighter horizons. This contrast between yearning for the past and the present’s disillusionment sets the stage for a broader discussion about the complexities of life and the pursuit of happiness in an often disorienting world.


As the song develops, there is an acknowledgment of the futility in living without purpose. The singer's mind is filled with thoughts of music and fashion, symbols of freedom and self-expression. There’s a sense of escapism here, as the character heads out into the city, embodying a carefree lifestyle that tends to glorify surface-level enjoyment. However, lurking beneath this desire for fun is a recognition of privilege; the reference to "parent's money" brings forth feelings of guilt and the weight of responsibility that comes with it. This duality illustrates an internal conflict where the pursuit of joy and self-identity clashes with the inherent guilt associated with living off someone else's success.


The recurring motif of lighting a "recovery light" under the moon holds significant metaphorical weight. It suggests illumination after a time of darkness, a beacon for resilience and revival. By lighting this candle, the singer seeks to reclaim their agency and prioritize their emotional and mental health. Yet, there's also an invitation here for personal authenticity—encouraging one to pursue their own path unencumbered by societal judgments. The repeated insistence on living freely reflects a deep-rooted yearning for personal contentment, emphasizing that joy and honesty in living one's truth are paramount in a world filled with chaos.


Ultimately, the lyrics resonate with a sense of rebellion against conformity and a celebration of individuality. The idea of distancing oneself from external pressures allows for a refreshing perspective on life, where enjoying the present moment takes precedence over societal expectations. This journey towards embracing self-identity rather than succumbing to the whims of others creates a powerful narrative of empowerment. The concluding thoughts reinforce a commitment to both personal freedom and emotional recovery, suggesting that true joy is found not in material wealth, but in the authenticity of one's experiences and connections with others. In essence, "Money" becomes a reflection on life's transient nature and the relentless pursuit of genuine happiness amidst the complexities of modern existence.
