The Unyielding Power of Hope and Love in 'My Will'

Dream's song 'My Will' is a poignant exploration of unrequited love and the enduring hope that accompanies it. The lyrics convey a sense of longing and emotional vulnerability, as the narrator expresses their deep feelings for someone who seems just out of reach. The opening lines, 'Sotto mezameru / Hakanai omoi zutto donna toki demo negau yo / Anata ni todoku you ni to...' set the tone for the song, highlighting the fragility of their emotions and their constant wish for their feelings to be acknowledged by the person they love.

The recurring theme of distance and the struggle to bridge it is evident in lines like 'Ato sukoshi to iu kyori ga fumidasenakute / Itsumo me no mae wa tozasarete ita no.' This metaphorical distance represents not just physical separation but also emotional barriers that prevent the narrator from fully expressing their love. Despite these challenges, the narrator's feelings only grow stronger, transforming their longing into a powerful, albeit painful, sensation.

Throughout the song, there is a persistent belief in the possibility of their love being reciprocated, as seen in the lines 'Moshimo 'eien' to iu mono ga aru nara / Toomawarishite demo shinjite mitai.' This hope is what keeps the narrator going, even when faced with the reality of their unfulfilled desires. The song's chorus, 'Anata no koto o omou sore dake de namida ga / Ima afuredashite kuru yo,' captures the raw emotion and tears that come with thinking about their beloved. Ultimately, 'My Will' is a testament to the strength of hope and the enduring nature of love, even in the face of uncertainty and heartache.
