Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

この世界から生まれたすべてのもの
目に見えない絆で支え合ってBalance奏でてる

街の片隅に置き去りにされた思いが
雨に濡れたまま寒さに震えて泣いてる

誰も気付かず通り過ぎゆくけど
胸の中たぎるような野心光らせてる

たとえ今まだ幼く浅はかでも
過ちさえ誰が裁けるものじゃなく
この世界から生まれたすべてのもの
目に見えない絆で支え合ってBalance奏でてる

もしも夢語る君が力無いとしても
誰も笑えない全ては未来が決めること

独りよがりの思い込みじゃなくて
君の創る未来が世界を変えてゆく

どんな小さな心にあるものでも
闇の中で光り放って生きている
この世界から生まれたすべてのもの
目に見えない絆で支え合ってBalance奏でてる

たとえ今まだ幼く浅はかでも
過ちさえ誰が裁けるものじゃなく
どんな小さな心にあるものでも
闇の中で光り放って生きている

この世界から生まれたすべてのもの
目に見えない絆で支え合ってBalance奏でてる

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of w-inds.'s song Balance talk about the interconnectedness of all things in the world and the importance of supporting each other through unseen bonds. The first verse describes the feeling of being left behind and forgotten in a city, with the emotions and thoughts of a person being represented as being drenched in rain and shivering in the cold. However, despite feeling alone, there is a bubbling ambition inside that can be seen as a light shining in the darkness. The chorus emphasizes the idea that all things in the world are connected through invisible bonds and that we should support and balance each other in order to thrive.

The second verse continues the themes of the first, with a person's dreams being potentially powerless without support and the future being something that cannot be predicted. However, it is emphasized that the future can be shaped by the actions we take today, and that even the smallest actions or thoughts can have an impact. The final lines of the song repeat the chorus, emphasizing the idea of balance and support being necessary for all things in the world to thrive.
