After seeing the English translation of the lyrics, I think I understand the meaning of this song In The Odyssey, Odysseus and his men come across an island of people known as the lotus eaters The lotuses on the island are having a drug like effect on them, they no longer want to go back to their homes, they don’t care about their responsibilities anymore, they just want to stay on the island with their fellow lotus eaters This song is about being in a sort of intoxicated state, no longer caring for what’s important. It’s depressing, but they don’t care anymore, they can’t care
I searched a little bit about Lotus Eater mean. In Greek Mythology, a member of a people represented by Homer as living in a state of dreamy forgetfulness and idleness as a result of eating the fruit of the lotus plant. Is that true this song has the same meaning?
It's also a story trope where a character is in someway trapped in a vision or dream of their ideal world, the method of which, whether magical, mechanical, or natural, is called a Lotus Eater Machine.
Ya ya, we were talking about this in class of how people eat the lotus flower and then they only want to eat more of it, they forget about their family and home and they don’t ever want to go back, nothing can put them out of that trance. I found this song afterwards and wonder the same
THE “IM A LOTUS EATER” PART GAVE ME CHILLS also, I really wanna know the theory of this song, but all I got is being stuck in dreams and escaping reality,,, anyone got some other theories?
i kinda get like being stuck around toxic people for all your life that it’s become more than a routine; and you can’t figure out how to change said thing
or like “ive lived this depressed routine for so long that i’ve grown numb to everything around me” type vibes kinda like falling in an bottomless pit with no lantern; stuck in limbo
yeah i think you’re on the right track with that idea as it could possibly be a reference to the “lotus eaters” from greek mythology. they appeared in the novel Odysseus and are people who live in a state of forgetfulness and idleness from eating a fruit from lotus plants.
Am I the only one thinking possibly something to do with hanahaki? I'm aware the victims of this disease cough up the flowers rather than eat them but it could be something like trying to overcome the disease, relating it sort of to "swallowing your feelings?" Idk random thoughts for it
English translation here... *Lotus Eater* Aoris Wandering smoothly, the moony idiot is in an ivory tower. Even though I can see the sunrise, I’m feeling melancholy without learning anything. Still intoxicated and floating about, I live such an idle life, huh? Standing erect without moving, just standing erect, and eating up this marvelous night, I’m a lotus eater. I’m a lotus eater. The preestablished harmony is just getting out of order. I don’t know. I can’t see. “I still want to sleep.” My cheap imagery was just like a dream I had at the very bottom of a dream. I can’t hear you, mayday. There’s nothing left here anymore. Even though the evening mist’s about to clear away, I’m hopelessly feeling apathy towards it. Completely tied up and spinning my wheels, I’m such a good-for-nothing. Don’t look at me in that way. I can’t take it anymore, so I keep crying throughout the night. The preestablished harmony is just getting out of order. I don’t know. I can’t see. “I still want to sleep.” My cheap imagery was just like a dream I had at the very bottom of a dream. I’m a lotus eater.

I feel so nostalgic listening to this song, because it reminds me of end of 2021-beginning of 2022, when I was recovering from very depressed state and got very invested in working at my Cookie Run au.😢
the instrumental in this is actually absolutely beautiful. one of the best songs i've ever heard! i've had this on loop for ages it's so great, ty so much for making such an amazing song!

【ギリシャ神話】 ロータスの実 《その実を食べると浮世の苦しみを忘れ楽しい夢を結ぶと考えられた想像上の植物》って出てきた!なるほど!!
あ、そういうことか
てっきり蓮を食べるのかと…

夢見心地の愚者は

未だ酔っていて
漂っていて
無為徒食だね

只突っ立って
可惜夜を
食い潰している

残ってないや
夕靄が晴れるのに
如何しようもなく無関心

空回っていて

見んなって
もう嫌になって
夜もすがら
泣き続けている
予定調和がただ狂っていく

1:49 で空気を吸う音を入れてるのこだわってるぅ! この雰囲気がもう最高
イントロで惹き込まれて サビ前の落ちで神曲を確信しました
その直感通り最後まで全く飽きず たった2分42秒しかなかったとは思えないほどの余韻が残って最高でした…
歌愛ユキちゃんを選ぶセンスも好きです
I’m absolutely in love with the distorted music at the beginning and end, this song is a masterpiece.
やべ、これ聴いてたら予定狂った
どうしてくれるんですかもっと聴きたいですこんな神曲をありがとうございます
初めて聴いた時からこの曲とユキに恋に近い感情を覚えて何も言えない。

*Lotus Eater*
Aoris
Wandering smoothly,
the moony idiot is in an ivory tower.
Even though I can see the sunrise,
I’m feeling melancholy without learning anything.
Still intoxicated and floating about,
I live such an idle life, huh?
Standing erect without moving, just standing erect,
and eating up this marvelous night,
I’m a lotus eater.
I’m a lotus eater.
The preestablished harmony is just getting out of order.
I don’t know. I can’t see.
“I still want to sleep.”
My cheap imagery was
just like a dream I had at the very bottom of a dream.
I can’t hear you, mayday.
There’s nothing left here anymore.
Even though the evening mist’s about to clear away,
I’m hopelessly feeling apathy towards it.
Completely tied up and spinning my wheels,
I’m such a good-for-nothing.
Don’t look at me in that way.
I can’t take it anymore,
so I keep crying throughout the night.
The preestablished harmony is just getting out of order.
I don’t know. I can’t see.
“I still want to sleep.”
My cheap imagery was
just like a dream I had at the very bottom of a dream.
I’m a lotus eater.
You are an angel- THANK YOU

わかる…界隈みを感じてめちゃめちゃ感動した
I feel so nostalgic listening to this song, because it reminds me of end of 2021-beginning of 2022, when I was recovering from very depressed state and got very invested in working at my Cookie Run au.😢
o may ga cookie run mentioned!!!!
Me when I see this comment while actively thinking about my CR AU and fanfic that I am currently writing

今更好きになった。いやこれ刺さらない人いないでしょ。まじで好き
これを人より早めに聞けるってさ
素敵やん
イラストと音のハメ方も最高だし何より曲調がめっちゃ好き!!!!!
1:19 ここ好きすぎてリピがやめられん
ハマってからずっと聞いてます
サビが自分の持っている語彙では現せないくらい…凄く好きです。
歌詞の言葉遣いや曲のどこかふんわりした感じが気だるげに感じる
軽い音と重低音のバランスが良すぎる
Oh what are the lyrics just wondering
I love this song i would actually listen to this on the daily basis
Whoa this is a underrated banger
未来に不安を覚えると聴きたくなる
TikTokでロータスイーターをたまたま見つけて、サビの部分がすごく好きだったから本家様を見に来たらド性癖だった、
これはリピ確
1:49 こっからほんと大好き
不思議な気持ちになる曲
1:04 ここ安っぽいフォントなの好き
ただの空耳かもしれませんが、 0:42 のところ「あの子が好きだ」に聞こえます!
サビめっちゃ衝撃受けた。何か胸がドキドキする感じで神曲すぎる。
音気持ちいいしセンスよすぎないか、もっと早く見つけたかった…
おしゃれでかっこいい…
好き
初見で曲聴いて、はじめて泣いたかも…
声も、歌詞も、メロディーとかリズムとかも全部、めっちゃいい意味で苦しくて泣けた…
💮 i'm a lotus eater. 💮
Genuinely this song is so good though, I love listening to it. Amazing work!! 💮
偶然出会ったこの曲がとても好みで、他の主さんの作品をつい覗きに行ったら全てがドンピシャです、、
唯一無二の中毒性でやられました
えっめっちゃ好きかも…✨
古参アピまだ間に合うよなこれぇ!そうだよなぁ?!
この曲を聴いてると胸が締め付けられそうになる
約2年後にして初めてこの曲を知ったけど、初めから終わりまでずっっと好きすぎる
ベースありえんくらいえぐいかっこいい
もう好きすぎるんよこの曲
This is a song you would want to repeat over and over!
冒頭が星のカービィのゲームの裏ステージでのロボットがモチーフのステージのBGMみたい(語彙力)
'lotus-eater' denotes "a person who spends their time indulging in pleasure and luxury rather than dealing with practical concerns".
makes sense with the second sentence in the song being
"the moony idiot lives in an ivory tower."
一目惚れした。過去一刺さった曲😭
ほんと…好きです…定期的にハマる…
朝4時とかに外で聴きたくなる感じ
ボーカロイドの無機質な声がこの曲をより魅力的にしていると思う。めちゃくちゃカッコイイ...
あなたへのオススメに出てきたこの出会いに感謝
好みどストライクすぎて運命かもしれない
サビ前の間が好きすぎる
間奏とアウトロ最高か…
要するにこの曲めっちゃ好きってこと()
主さんのセンスのせいで全部の曲ぶっ刺さる(いい意味で
This is so lovely. It’s exactly my kind of song. It’s melodic but also somewhat dark/rough.
If you like songs like that, listen to Kikuo songs like Aishite Aishite Aishite and Hole Dwelling, they have very dark meanings, yet they are melodic.
サビのサイドチェインが気持ちよすぎる
一つ一つのメロディがガツンと刺さる……
特に「安っぽい」の上がり方が好きすぎる
I’m here from the animation meme but I stayed for the amazing vocals
初めて聴いたときから今日までの約1年間、この曲のタイトル「ロストイーター」かと思ってた
ようやくカラオケで歌える
アニメーションミームに最適なこれが大好きです! !良い :)
2021年史上最高の神曲を見つけましたありがとうございます。

前奏から惹き込まれて、気づいたら最後まで聴いてました
