Unknow zero distance

Phantasmagoria's 'Unknow zero distance' is a haunting exploration of existential themes, wrapped in a shroud of poetic ambiguity. The lyrics delve into the depths of human emotion, touching on themes of love, fear, and the passage of time. The recurring motif of 'distance' serves as a metaphor for the emotional and psychological barriers that separate individuals from their desires and from each other. The song's title itself suggests a journey towards an unknown destination, where the ultimate goal is to reach 'zero distance'—a state of complete understanding or unity.

The lyrics are rich with imagery and metaphors. Phrases like 'Deep... togirenai yume' (Deep... an unending dream) and 'I can see your sin' evoke a sense of being trapped in a perpetual cycle of longing and regret. The mention of 'sin' and 'seed' suggests a struggle with inner demons and the consequences of past actions. The line 'I just get believe. Endless story' reflects a yearning for eternal love and acceptance, even in the face of inevitable decay ('Subete wa kuchihatete yukumade no story... hajimari kara'—Everything is a story that decays from the beginning).

The song's structure, with its repetitive and escalating countdown from 'Four distance' to 'Zero distance,' creates a sense of urgency and impending resolution. This countdown can be interpreted as a metaphor for the journey towards self-discovery and the shedding of fears ('Send your phobia'). The final repetition of 'Stay... Zero distance' suggests a moment of epiphany or enlightenment, where the barriers have finally been dissolved, and a deeper understanding has been achieved. Phantasmagoria's unique blend of gothic and visual kei elements adds to the song's atmospheric and introspective quality, making 'Unknow zero distance' a profound and thought-provoking piece.
