Metroma

The Sei's song 'Metroma' delves into the complexities of human emotions and relationships, using vivid imagery and introspective lyrics to paint a picture of inner conflict and reconciliation. The opening lines, 'We brought this on, resisting / Dead or alive, we’re missing,' suggest a struggle or a conflict that the narrator feels responsible for, hinting at a sense of loss or disconnection. The phrase 'Don’t ask why / I close my eyes' indicates a desire to escape or avoid confronting these difficult emotions directly.

As the song progresses, the lyrics 'Something inside, insisting / Better than God, just listen' reveal an internal voice or intuition that the narrator feels compelled to heed. This could be interpreted as a call to trust one's inner self or instincts, which are portrayed as more reliable than external beliefs or deities. The lines 'Take my time / Love then life' suggest a prioritization of love and emotional connections over other aspects of life, emphasizing the importance of taking things slowly and valuing relationships.

The recurring motif of 'The colours I wear, compose us / Trust 'cause I care' uses the metaphor of colors to represent the different facets of the narrator's identity and emotions. This imagery suggests that the narrator's true self is a blend of various experiences and feelings, and that trust and care are fundamental to their relationships. The repeated plea 'Say I'm found' underscores a yearning for recognition and acceptance, possibly from a significant other or from oneself. The song's conclusion, 'This is the place I met you / Say I'm found,' ties the themes of self-discovery and connection to a specific moment or place, highlighting the transformative power of meaningful encounters.
