虹が見える空をめざし
いつも夢だけ追いかけてた
君を詩う 僕の声が
今聞こえますか?
君がいない夜を越えて
やがて辿り着いたEdenは
虹が見える景色なのに
なぜか悲しくて
そばにいない 過去になった
鳥はもう捕えられない
もう今さら
空に溶けた君をさがしてみても

見慣れた君のいない部屋
一人が広く感じる
訪れた冬のせい?
この頃やけに想い出達が
頭をちらついて
僕はどこか物憂げになって
誘われる様に 手にしたのは
今はもう窓辺にはいない
君の写真がまだ笑いかけてる
二人きりの最後の夜
無理に笑ってみせたんだね
涙声でつぶやく寝言
「一人にしないで」
どこにゆけば 何をすれば
虹のかかる空が見れるの?
だから僕は そのまぶたに
最後の口づけをした

優しく髪をなでる風
頬杖ついたまま あの頃思い返して
僕から別れを告げた日
あれから大人になった
君が幸せでいるならそれでいい
こんな遠くにまで来てから
気づいた夢に見た現実は
明りのない夜景みたい
君がいないと

季節は流れるのに
心だけ立ち止まってる
涙を笑顔に変える事ができても
君の悲しみを消し去る術を
知らない僕は
誰もいないEdenで声を枯らしてる
君がいない夜を越えて
やがて辿り着いたEdenは
虹が見える景色なのに
なぜか悲しくて
二人きりの最後の夜
無理に笑ってみせたんだね
涙声でつぶやく寝言
「一人にしないで」
そばにいない 過去になった
鳥はもう捕えられない
もう今さら
空に溶けた君をさがしてみても

    Not too much as my japanese language knowledge is pretty weak at the moment. But I commend the person who put up all of these Janne Da Arc lyrics. Loads of effort. Excellent contribution.

Holiday
Bee Gees
@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday". I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.

Dreamwalker
Silent Planet
I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.

I Can't Go To Sleep
Wu-Tang Clan
This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.

No Surprises
Radiohead
Same ideas expressed in Fitter, Happier are expressed in this song. We're told to strive for some sort of ideal life, which includes getting a good job, being kind to everyone, finding a partner, getting married, having a couple kids, living in a quiet neighborhood in a nice big house, etc. But in Fitter, Happier the narrator(?) realizes that it's incredibly robotic to live this life. People are being used by those in power "like a pig in a cage on antibiotics"--being pacified with things like new phones and cool gadgets and houses while being sucked dry. On No Surprises, the narrator is realizing how this life is killing him slowly. In the video, his helmet is slowly filling up with water, drowning him. But he's so complacent with it. This is a good summary of the song. This boring, "perfect" life foisted upon us by some higher powers (not spiritual, but political, economic, etc. politicians and businessmen, perhaps) is not the way to live. But there is seemingly no way out but death. He'd rather die peacefully right now than live in this cage. While our lives are often shielded, we're in our own protective bubbles, or protective helmets like the one Thom wears, if we look a little harder we can see all the corruption, lies, manipulation, etc. that is going on in the world, often run by huge yet nearly invisible organizations, corporations, and 'leaders'. It's a very hopeless song because it reflects real life.

American Town
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran shares a short story of reconnecting with an old flame on “American Town.” The track is about a holiday Ed Sheeran spends with his countrywoman who resides in America. The two are back together after a long period apart, and get around to enjoying a bunch of fun activities while rekindling the flames of their romance.
