"Pursuing My True Self" Analysis

[prominentflame]

Okay, at first glance, the lyrics seem to make no sense, but I think I might've gotten some idea of what they mean.

...I'm impressed.

I hope your brain didn't short-circuit as well. *chuckles*

[prominentflame]

Thank y--

...

[Just... gonna attempt to whack Hiroto upside the head for that second part.]

[ryuusei_boy]

[OUCH. That hurt.]

Can't you be a little more level-headed...?

[ryuusei_boy]

...Oh right. There's that Tulip issue. Forget I said that.

...never knew you're the philosophical kind, analysing things like that... [Well, you got him honestly surprised... and maybe looking just a bit amazed. Surprises just keep coming, huh?]

But you know, the "Catch a glimpse of the hollow world" bit, wouldn't that refer to the world around us as something that doesn't have anything left in itself? If you say we get fed with empty junk according to that song, and when everyone's locked up in themselves, then the world would be empty, wouldn't it? "Hollow".

I'm no big analyst, though, haha, might be wrong.

[prominentflame]

... That's actually pretty good. I didn't think of it that way.

...really? I think it's just enough to look at the later part in the lyrics to get it. "Even in the presence of others he was completely alone." There's a quote like that. It's a bit.. hm. If you're in a classroom, you don't really feel like you're being together with others as much as you are during the break? Because everyone focuses rather on themselves!
