Lyric

DEFEATED SOLDIER

abelest

いったい主は何処?

主どころか隊すらも散れじれ

病院は追われ森の中彷徨う

信用できるやつはどこにもいないな

常夏トロピカル、嘘つき

そのイメージ、北の人間のもの

彩り豊かな木の実ばかりを食べてたやつから戦線を離脱

ドラマチックじゃない

ピンダンウーウェイだけどなんとなく辛いんだ

窒息しそうな澱んだ空気

2日前から塩だけ舐めてることに

なんで気づかない?

痛い、痛いことが嫌いで神経質な我ら

あらゆる機能が低下してるのに

トロピカルモルヒネ食べてわからない

当て所もなく彷徨う兵、やあ

撤退できない彷徨う兵、やあ

今日もまた暑い

毎日毎日隙間なく低い雑木林

変哲ないことに何いうでもなく

陰性の喜びを吸い込む

やたらと煙が、んまい、んまい

孤独の敗兵、タイムイズ無価値

確実な予定が見えないまま

荒廃していく情緒にしがみつく

イメージ世界がみんな

限られて矮小化される

それすら何もかもイメージなのに

君すら敗兵の言葉そのもの

撤退ラインどこ?

もう遅い

叶わぬ夢を幼少期に見た

讃美歌歌う安らかな時代

そこでは全てが意味を帯びてた

主、主は?

会いたい、会いたいけど

姿変わってどこかで、今でもなにかとこちらみてて

いつかまた

と1人妄想する

当て所もなく彷徨う兵、やあ

撤退できない彷徨う兵、やあ

    DEFEATED SOLDIER

    abelest

Have you ever felt like you've been left behind without noticing? This song, 'DEFEATED SOLDIER', weaves a tale where the present and the past intertwine.

At the center of this narrative is a soldier who has lost both his leader and his troop, wandering in solitude. He has been left behind from battle, ejected from a hospital, and has sought refuge in a forest. The stark reality for him is that he can only trust himself. Despite being beaten down by this desolate reality, there is a stubborn will to survive within him.

The lyrics "Where is my leader?" depict moments of him reminiscing the past. The fond memories he has for the leader he once served and the times they spent together provide him the strength and courage to keep going.

Furthermore, he tries to accept his harsh present by recalling his longing to meet his 'leader' again, his unfulfilled dreams from childhood, and the peaceful days when hymns echoed in the air. One could say that his past memories have become a source of salvation in his present. This song portrays his struggles, hopes, and the essence of human life.
