The Dark Allure of Forbidden Connections

The song 'Wednesday' by Galileo Galilei delves into the complex and often dark emotions that arise from forbidden connections and the allure of the unknown. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a funeral, a setting that is inherently somber and reflective. The protagonist sees someone they are deeply fascinated by, someone who stands out with their vibrant lips and colorful attire amidst the monochrome surroundings. This person, referred to as 'Wenzudei,' becomes a symbol of something both alluring and dangerous.

The repeated encounters at funerals suggest a pattern of meeting in places associated with death and endings, which adds a layer of morbidity to their connection. The protagonist's desire for this person grows stronger, to the point where they crave the vibrant colors that this person represents. This craving is so intense that it feels almost life-threatening, indicating a deep, possibly unhealthy obsession.

The lyrics also hint at a darker side to 'Wenzudei,' suggesting that they might be involved in something sinister ('Wenzudeiきみはたぶんころしてる'). The protagonist seems to be aware of this but is still drawn to them, even wishing for unnatural deaths to occur so they can meet again. This twisted desire highlights the theme of forbidden love and the dangerous allure of the unknown, making 'Wednesday' a haunting exploration of human emotions and the lengths one might go to satisfy their deepest cravings.
