Navigating the Abyss: The Search for Truth in Kotoko's 'TRUE-BLUE'

Kotoko's 'TRUE-BLUE' is a profound exploration of existential themes, delving into the human condition and the perpetual quest for truth and meaning. The song opens with a vivid image of a 'black wind' touching the eyelids, symbolizing the harsh realities and inevitable struggles that people face from birth to death. This sets the tone for a journey marked by conflict, hatred, and the search for validation in a world where concepts like justice and order are often distorted reflections of cruelty.

The lyrics question whether one can save an endless dream in a world where everything is warped. This reflects a deep sense of disillusionment and the struggle to find direction amidst chaos. The recurring theme of searching for the 'end of blue' suggests a quest for clarity and truth in a world filled with illusions and nightmares. The song juxtaposes dreams and reality, highlighting the thin line between them and the difficulty in distinguishing one from the other.

As the song progresses, it delves into the human tendency to create and destroy, to inflict pain and seek redemption. The lyrics ponder whether we can walk the path of hope under a sky that edges closer to destruction. This reflects a broader commentary on the human experience, where moments of despair and hope are intertwined. The song concludes with a powerful message about the continuity of the world, even if the individual fades away, and the eternal light that burns within the 'blue,' symbolizing an undying quest for truth and meaning.

'Kotoko,' known for her work in electronic and J-pop genres, often infuses her music with deep, philosophical themes. 'TRUE-BLUE' is no exception, offering listeners a rich tapestry of metaphors and existential questions that resonate on a deeply personal level.
