Kansai
Contemplating Existence: Ra Ra Riot's "Kansai" Meaning Unveiled
Lyrics
When I came back to San Diego
Returning to San Diego
Checkered lights and rain in the afternoon
Observing checkered lights and rain in the afternoon
Oh, made me miss my imagination I used to have
Feeling a longing for a lost imagination
There's something else
Contemplating something beyond the immediate thoughts
I thought about
Reflecting on a particular idea
The universe
Considering the vastness of the universe
When it's merciful
Highlighting the universe's merciful nature
How should I know
Expressing uncertainty about knowledge
After wringing out my memory?
Reflecting on memory and its limitations
And all that my hands send away
Mentioning actions of the hands and their consequences
Oh, rifling for a stem to find an answer I knew
Searching for answers amidst confusion
There's something else
Contemplating something beyond the immediate thoughts (repeated)
I thought about
Reflecting on a particular idea (repeated)
The universe
Considering the vastness of the universe (repeated)
When it's merciful
Highlighting the universe's merciful nature (repeated)
Oh, what
Pondering the purpose of one's blood
What's my blood for?
Questioning the manifestation of fear
What shows my fear?
Contemplating the reason behind emotions
Oh why?
Expressing uncertainty or confusion about existence
On a meaningless fortune
Reflecting on the randomness of fate
Whose light did it come in on?
Questioning the source of a guiding light
Whose light did it come in on?
Repeating the inquiry about the source of light
There's something else
Contemplating something beyond the immediate thoughts (repeated)
I thought about
Reflecting on a particular idea (repeated)
The universe
Considering the vastness of the universe (repeated)
It's merciful
Highlighting the universe's merciful nature (repeated)
