Big Man 2 Meaning & Lyrics (Satoh)
LINNA FIGG writes about a man tired of screens, who smashes a guitar and sees stars in the wreckage. The songwriter describes drawing sand art on a Nazca scale, then kicking it away. A key line reads: ‘I’m looking for our bright future in these songs.’ The lyrics mix mundane moments with sudden travel, from Tokyo trains to Taiwan hotels.
