*DROP - English Lyrics* (If you spot any mistakes, please tell me!) Because I was thirsty I gulp down seawater The city is too stingy The drop is too sugary I drank a bit too much I rushed by too quickly I had failed to see so much From inside the guardrail These once earnest, simple lyrics Won’t reach you anymore I , forever and ever Since then, forever and ever Have remained this way, forever and ever I haven’t changed at all Aimlessly, vaguely Striding over the night I had walked through Surely, once it turns morning Everything will be better Repeating that thought process Nothing ever changes from the beginning Tonight, too is the avalanche Of the dream thieves tricks In Tokyo, it’s a battlefield So I don't get any stupid ideas So I don’t see, so I don’t wake up So my eyes don’t open again Aren’t things too simple today, again The crosswalk is full of only blue and red Since then, forever and ever Surely, by the coming of dawn We’ll feel a twinge of fear Getting dizzy I’m scared of myself Who gets used to things too easily Even if we’re satisfied We weren’t able to be satisfied It’s gotten so much harder to live, harder to breathe Surely, we would have been able to wander more So cold, so cold This unstable night And similar people comfort me I , forever and ever Since then, forever and ever Have remained this way, forever and ever I haven’t been able to change at all Aimlessly, vaguely What changed was this town and you all, isn’t it? Or is it you? Is it you? No, it’s me! But still, on and on I will, forever and ever Like always Keep waiting for you If I get the things I want Then I become unable to see everything else And just that way, surely For now on, forever and ever Even though it's here now, it’ll fade away What a load of crap, right? We had always stood among the other cowards And had once thought that the posters Hung up in town, were cool Since we’ll get tired of them soon Before it goes away, I’ll end up clinging onto them It hurts so much It hurts so much, but..

青と赤い目は信号機の「進む」と「止まる」(音楽辞める/今の音楽性のまま留まる的な？)、黄色のドロップは「進むか止まるか迷う」で、黄色が入った髪の女の子(美波本人？)はもがきながら不安になりながら行き先もわからず迷ってるのを意味してて、最後には黄色のドロップ「迷い」を投げたら、赤色「止まる」って言う選択肢が消えて、青色「進む」が残り、でもまだ黄色い月が割れた目の向こうに見えてるから、「迷い」は一応残ってる。青「進む」か赤「止まる」だった選択肢が今は青「進む」か「迷いながら進む」という選択肢になった。 みたいな感じかな？自分の文章力の無さを改めて実感してなんか悔しいw 心ではわかってんだけど、文章にするの難しいす。 考察班の人たち、あとは頼むw

[@martinfanatic532]

This song is criminally underrated even by Minami's fans. The composition + arrangement is truly a masterclass on storytelling and evoking emotion.

[@Il3Lf]

This song indeed has an incredible arrangement and is sung very well. The problem is that people just don't give artists enough time to cook these days. Minami brought a good idea to the song structure, but people like it when it's simple and clear. If a song isn't catchy enough in the first minute, many people just don't listen any further. That's why this song is so underrated, because the whole point of it is to reach the maximum expression at the end.

[@rutujakarawade6549]

Exactly! Especially waiting for rain is realizing that the relationship was over and that only the memories remain. That the other person is a closed chapter and someone else will come who will be much better than anyone else. That it's better to move on rather than hold on to hope that your ex will come back, because after all you cannot seek solace in the very place you lost it. Because you cannot take back the person who didn't even want you in the first place

[@abe-ta]

美波さんの曲は、個人的な印象として、どの曲も「理想の自分」と対峙しているような印象を受けます。 僕は自分の夢に疑問を感じていたとき、DROPに出会いました。 聞いているうちに、夢を諦めようという気持ちが芽生えたのを覚えています。 しかし、諦めることを悲観的に捉えていたかというと、そうでもありません。 その夢は「怒り」を源泉としていた夢だと気がついたからです。 そもそもゴール設定を間違った夢でした。 とはいえ、長らく胸に抱いていたものだったので、感情の整理が大変でした。 苦しさと嬉しさが混ざったようなものを感じました。 それから何日もDROPを聴きながら、紙に感情と考えを書き出しました。 その時に、利己的だった自分のアイデンティティが大きく変化しました。 ちょうど東京に1ヶ月だけ滞在していた時の出来事です。 もともと数年間東京に住んでいましたが、その時は一時的に1ヶ月だけ滞在していました。 いろいろな状況と歌詞が相まって、強烈に記憶に残っています。

@@findingjapanartist9836 I'm so confused bruh I thought the problem here is the music video and now how to understand it? I think learning their language will help me understand the song with or without mv the problem that i'm telling you is even without mv people still appreciate her songs mv doesn't really help foreigners to understand the full meaning of the song so it doesn't rely on that it relies on the meaning or lyrics of the song not Music video. I'm technically a foreigner and i listened to one of her songs that has no Mv but i still enjoyed it? Even if I don't understand the lyrics even without mv. I still end up listening to it so here's my answer. Then if you can understand its deep meaning then its good, if you don't there's no problem because they still listen to minami's songs. Stop it no one even points out the problems you make only you because it doesn't even exist in the first place
