She uses some combination of "kimi" or "anata" (you), "aitsu" (that guy/that girl/him/her), "ano ko" (that kid/that child/that little girl), and "boku" or "watashi" (me) as a set - they seem to refer to stages of her life when she does so. She does this in immature, Heartplace, fairyland, Marionette, and Wake me up.
She refers to herself as only having one wing in at least "Endless sorrow" and "Secret."
The lyrics to "Catcher In The Light" and the chorus of "Sparkle" both say "If you just stand there looking at it, it'll never be yours."
In "And then" she makes reference to two lines in "A Song for XX:" "The sun is coming up now. I have to go soon. I can't stay in the same place forever." / "I guess I did say that I couldn't stay in the same place forever. The sun's gonna rise - before that, let's leave this city together."
She has a few other overarching concepts that come up often... a fear of the future, difficulty putting feelings into words, losing something & wondering how it would be to get it back again, reactions to people who pass by her, the imagery of flowers and in particular their ability to bloom despite their fragility, requests that someone lie consistently so she can believe it's true regardless, the finality of saying "farewell" versus saying "see ya" like it's no big deal, the differences between reality and dreams or ideals, thoughts she has while looking up at the sky, making choices & taking one's own destiny into one's hands... There are a ton of common concepts she uses to illustrate her feelings & her life.
