Musica

Brandy Senki's song 'Musica' delves into the themes of self-discovery, longing, and the pursuit of fulfillment. The lyrics express a sense of inadequacy and the desire for life experiences that the protagonist feels are missing. The repeated line 'わたしにたりないのはじんせいけいけんとあとなにかしら' (What I lack are life experiences and something else) highlights this yearning for growth and understanding. This sentiment is further emphasized by the protagonist's wish to connect with someone on a deeper level, as seen in the lines about understanding classical music and sharing moments like concerts and black coffee together.

The song also touches on the idea of human connection and the barriers that can exist. The protagonist acknowledges the difficulty of meeting someone every day, partly because they are not human ('だってそもそもにんげんじゃないし'). This metaphorical expression could represent feeling alienated or different from others, making it challenging to form meaningful relationships. The mention of 'じんるいめつぼうわんだあらんど' (human extinction wonderland) adds a layer of existential contemplation, suggesting a world where people are waiting for something significant to happen, yet the protagonist pleads for the light of the lantern not to be extinguished, symbolizing hope and perseverance.

Throughout 'Musica,' there is a recurring theme of striving for a better understanding of oneself and the world. The protagonist's desire to wear 'なみだみたいなほうせき' (tear-like jewels) to catch someone's attention reflects a longing for recognition and validation. However, the realization that these external adornments might not be enough to make someone turn around underscores the importance of inner growth and genuine connection. The song beautifully captures the complexities of human emotions and the continuous journey towards finding one's place and purpose in life.
