What I think is the lyrics to Gackt's 「Jesus」
Thanks to karadin for asking/letting me share this here.
First and foremost please do note that this may NOT be accurate or the exact lyrics to the song
There's no source/reference for me to compare it with so I really cannot be certain if its entirely correct. m(_ _)m
Disclaimer: Please note my Japanese is poor and there will be errors/inaccuracies.
If you spot any errors, please do let me know so I can correct them. ^_^
As such, please do not copy or repost my translations elsewhere without permission. Thank you.
Thanks tonbo_no_arashi & sweiled for helping to correct my translation and Japanese lyrics!! XD
Many edits have been made thanks to them ^____^~
**My interpretation (The English translation is based on how I interpreted the song when I first watched the PV
and it can differ from person to person based on how you read into the lyrics/song? Mine's a rather literal one, unfortunately ;_;) :
I think when he sang "broken empty shell", he was referring to someone he loves dearly who had just died
i.e. The soul has left the body thus leaving behind an empty broken shell. The rain falling on him is that loved one's tears as she ascends to Heaven? XDD
And so while hugging her and smiling, he touched her cheeks and wanted to die too (due to grief?)
He was also in so much pain nothing seemed real and and he couldn't see right, thus resulting in him being"blinded" by his grief.
Therefore explaining why he wants Maria to tell him if its a dream or if its real, and for Jesus to take him out of what he probably thinks is a delusion or a painful reality ^^;
Okay.. enough of my crapping XDD Anyone has a different interpretation?
I'd really love to hear how everyone interprets the song :P Do share!! :)
I've read one of my friend's depiction and I love hers so much! I think it makes more sense than mine, actually XD
p.s. My apologies beforehand as Imay be will be have always been, and probably will be slow in replying comments m(_ _)m Gomen.
