Don't

Siam Shade's song 'Don't' delves into the complexities of love, betrayal, and the desire for eternal connection. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a relationship fraught with emotional turmoil, where words and actions often lead to misunderstandings and pain. The opening lines, 'Narabe ta kotoba ga itsumo kara mawari suru / Itsuwari uragiri sore mo aijou na no?' suggest a cycle of deceit and betrayal, questioning whether these negative experiences are also a form of love. This sets the stage for a narrative that explores the duality of human emotions and relationships.

The chorus, 'Anata dake o dakishimetai / Tsuyoku tsuyoku kowareru hodo ni atatameteitai,' expresses a deep yearning to hold and cherish the beloved, even to the point of breaking. This intense desire to protect and nurture the relationship is a recurring theme throughout the song. The lyrics 'Fukaku fukaku aishi tsuzukeru / Like to say like this forever' emphasize a longing for permanence and an unending love, highlighting the singer's commitment to their partner despite the challenges they face.

The song also touches on the idea of time and memory, as seen in the lines 'Mune ni kizami konda betsuno jikan o / Towa ni nemurase you.' Here, the singer wishes to put past hurts and memories to rest, focusing instead on the present and future with their loved one. The repeated plea, 'Don't let me go,' underscores the fear of losing this deep connection. Siam Shade's musical style, characterized by powerful rock elements and emotive vocals, amplifies the song's themes, making 'Don't' a poignant exploration of love's enduring and sometimes painful nature.
