Forbidden

D'espairsRay's song "Forbidden" delves into the depths of human suffering, pain, and the quest for redemption. The lyrics, a mix of Japanese and English, paint a vivid picture of a tormented soul grappling with inner demons and the allure of forbidden paths. The recurring phrase "Days, All pain" sets the tone, suggesting a continuous struggle and a relentless pursuit of peace in a world filled with anguish.

The song's protagonist seems to be addressing a higher power or perhaps a darker entity, as indicated by the lines "Follow to the DeathGod" and "Give me your suffering and sorrow voice." This could be interpreted as a plea for release from the burdens of life, a desire to hand over one's pain to a force that can bear it. The mention of "kami no otoshiko" (God's child) adds a layer of spiritual conflict, hinting at a struggle between divine guidance and the temptation of darker forces.

The imagery of "aka to kuro ni someru koe ga mazariau" (voices dyed in red and black mix) suggests a blending of purity and corruption, innocence and sin. This duality is further emphasized by the line "moshi sekai ga asu owaru toshitemo" (even if the world ends tomorrow), which speaks to the fleeting nature of existence and the urgency to find meaning and redemption. The final reference to planting an apple seed, a nod to the biblical story of Adam and Eve, symbolizes a hope for new beginnings and the possibility of salvation, even in the face of impending doom.
