BURIAL APPLICANT
the GazettE Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
A burned body doesn't leave you
救えないと嘆くなら
死さえ見ただろう?
その呼吸のざらつきは
偽演ととれないか?
降りしきる「軋む音」に
震えが止まぬ
Die for me, you can't save it
Is it wrong? 答えてみせて
ほらゆらゆらゆらとその目揺らして
流す涙に嘘は無いと
My hand, eyes
Mind, and breath
最期に残るのは
焼け爛れて腐り果てた記録と
子も救えぬ残骸
取り乱す被写体の影
憎悪と恐怖は叫び合って
剥がれ落ちた愛情に
何故この身体まで朽ち果てる
赤く笑う闇の中で
息を吐く度に零れた
救いようの無い言葉は
その「憎悪」とよく似ている
降りしきる「軋む音」に
震えが止まぬ
脳で理解し続ける痛みに絶縁を
Hello my dear, kill me gently
A burned body doesn't leave you
産声と悲鳴知る耳に
願いよ届け深き底へ
どうかどうかその潤む目に
映り込まぬように沈めて
深く 二度とこの身に触れぬよう
そして笑うその歪な思い出も
Forget me, you can't save it
Is it wrong? 答えてみせて
ほらゆらゆらゆらとその目揺らして
流す涙が全て嘘と
My hand, eyes
Mind, and breath
最期の置き去りは
焼け爛れて腐り果てた記録と
子も愛せぬ揺篭
The GazettE's song "BURIAL APPLICANT" is a dark and introspective exploration of the themes of pain, death, and despair. The lyrics begin with a plea for a gentle killing, acknowledging that a burned body will leave a lasting memory of the violence that has been done. The singer then questions whether it is wrong to desire death, and asks whether the roughness of their breathing can be seen as insincere acting.
As the song progresses, the lyrics become increasingly desperate and mournful. The singer reflects on the pain they have endured and begs for relief, questioning the worth of the twisted memories that will be left behind. Throughout the song, there is a sense of helpless resignation, as though the singer is trapped in their own suffering and unable to find a way out.
Overall, "BURIAL APPLICANT" is a powerful and emotionally charged song that provides a stark and unflinching portrayal of the human experience of pain and death.
