BRILLANT PV interpretations

Ok, this is how I interpret the bizarre PV after reading the lyrics:

Putting all those strong seminude men in the video, to me, it shows both they can be seem as strong invicible people but their nudity also means vunerability. They seem to be getting ready for a war or something.

ayu and Timmy were two people, until they met and became "one".

ayu is Cleopatra which is one of the strongest women symbols we have in story, however, I think part of her strength had something to do with her love for Julius Cesar (was it, or am I wrong? lol). Ayu is strong, but just while she still is "one" with Timmy. Can you see how Timmy influences her and her actions during the scenes they appear together? He also seems to protect her pretty intimately. I've read some people saying that his acting was bad, but I actually thought it was pretty good. There are times Timmy is so close to ayu that they almost seem like they're blending together (I just hope he doesn't have bad breath, otherwise it must have been a terrible part for ayu to film hahah j/k).

ayu's closeness to timmy made her blind to her own strength. Made she feel like she was someone very strong when in fact she was not (there's a part in the lyrics that mention this).

In the last part of the video, you see ayu and Timmy in the top of the male pyramid. It means ayu is strongger than all those men, but the reason is, because she's "one" with Timmy.

Even when ayu is all scared and fragile, as one, Timmy still stands strong and comfort her, so their whole is still that of a strong person.

Once they "break up" and ayu leaves the top of the pyramid to face the road of life alone, she gets ready for war, like all the crusaders there, but she realizes she's actually very fragile and gets severely hurt by the seastream of men. That means, once they become "two" (aka, get separated from each other) ayu finally realizes she is not strong anymore. However, since she already made the decision of leaving and was hurt, she wasn't able to get back anymore..... (I coundn't see anything
After that, I saw everything
The road ahead is too narrow
And I can no more walk on, side by side with you)

The present she talks about in the lyrics is just showing gratitude to how this person was so important in her life, even though they broke up.

Well, hope it made any sense lol

A human is much stronger
Than I thought, isn't he?
I've stayed in the darkness a little longer
But it's time to go

I coundn't see anything
After that, I saw everything
The road ahead is too narrow
And I have no choice but to walk alone

When tha pain becomes
Far beyond the reach of imagination

There is no more energy left
To be able to cry or shout
A human is entirely
Caught in nothingness, isn't he?

What had been two
Became one, and became two
It's no more than that
We've just come full circle, haven't we?

I coundn't see anything
After that, I saw everything
The road ahead is too narrow
And I can no more walk on, side by side with you
