| Post subject: | Request - Skeleton Liar |
I don't mean to be a bother, but this is quite possibly one of my favorite songs of all time. It pains me to not know the full meaning of it, and though I fear what might come of it, I somehow have faith in the exemplary lyrics I have seen from numerous other translations of Pillows songs, and find that they rarely detract from the song - but quite the opposite, in fact. If no one can give a fully detailed translation, I should be satisfied with a "general idea" or such. Thank you. |

Wow, thanks. You are certainly, without a doubt, one person for whom I am eternally grateful for existing on this planet. This website is a godsend. I might also ask...what exactly would a skeleton liar be? Am I the only one confused by this jarbled English? I'm guessing that it doesn't really mean much, but there has to be something... |

no problem. we could probably debate for a while about what a skeleton liar is, but that's like asking what a biscuit hammer is. it's mostly something odd that came out of sawao's head. :/ on the other hand, given the part where he talks about folding up his bones, the skeleton is probably him. and he perhaps lied about something and is now suffering the consequences- wishing he wasn't alone, wishing he could escape the burden of his lies. |

i also get the impression that by "skeleton" he is referring to himself as a hollowed-out person who has been withered away by the mistakes and tragedies of his life. |
