This song is about a flower, or person, that rejects the norms and ethics that society pushes onto them. They fear and cry in the face of this wind or pressure to conform and be "normal." The author focuses a lot on the word "hentai" meaning "abnormality," and on the theme of puberty. The feelings of self-consciousness, and self-awareness that puberty introduces that they have not yet felt or understood. They feel as though they are abnormal and struggle with either embracing or discarding this abnormality. Some never learn how to deal with these feelings, and are stuck in an emotional puberty. These people have within them flowers of evil (Aku no Hana) that represent the urge to destroy, whether that be to destroy societal norms, destroy people's perceptions of them, or just to wreak havoc against the code of ethics that society pushes onto us. These flowers sometimes never bloom in some (as seen through Saeki in the anime/manga), and sometimes they bloom too strongly to ignore (as seen in the case of Nakamura). Regardless, the seeds are within all of us, at varying stages of growth. The flower needs light in order to change, to grow into something complete and beautiful, or it can simply subsist off of water, remaining in it's current state until it dies (also seen through Nakamura, as she was unable to grow and fell victim to her nihilism, likely isolating herself from everyone until the day she died or successfully killed herself). At the end of the song, the flower starts to realize how important the light is, but is still afraid of the wind. It knows it needs the light, but desires water and to live in the comfort of the darkness. The song ends with the flower falling prey to its own nihilism and fear, saying that it doesn't need light, just give it some water. It can be seen as a theme of how people often discard that which they need in favor of that which they desire. Becoming victims to their desire, lust, greed, gluttony, or otherwise, the flower denies what it needs, condemning itself to death without growth. It's a fantastic piece of art with a variety of different possible interpretations. I think that the failure of the flower to grow and accept the light that it needs is a beautifully tragic ending and shows how easily we can ignore our needs and become victims to our desire. We fear conformity, we hold our self-consciousness tightly and oftentimes never let it go, we fear our own growth or the possibility of failing to grow. We don't want to lose our individuality and shun the light and wind, fully embracing our "id," or base desires, regardless of the harm it will do to ourselves and others. Some of us learn to accept the light and withstand the wind, remaining as individuals who have fully grown into people who are happy, people who embrace themselves and their true desires without losing sight of what they need. Only when we learn to balance our needs with our desires can we be functional, happy, and fulfilled.

Я твой ласт флавер, а ты мой любимый энгри берд

После молитвы манга скатилась

Хусеки, евангелион или цветы зла?
