A question about the SURREAL lyrics?

[asmAyumi1992]

I think she says, she is really on the top that she ever dreamed. Everyone looks Ayu's life just so like a dream. She wants to tell everyone that the dream is only just a dream. and her life is not like others think about it. That's only my opinion.

[C+R+E+AYUMI]

I think by "nonexistent place" it means the place that Ayumi Hamasaki is because technically they are the same person, Ayumi Hamasaki and Ayu. So what Ayu means is that in the place that doesn't exist, as in, her Ayumi Hamasaki exterior in which the fans see, Ayu stands as she is. Like, she is being herself.

So despite having to pretend to be this Ayumi Hamasaki, Ayu is still standing as herself in this "non-existent place" that is, well, the 'pretense'. Or the mask, something like that.

I think Masa wrote a really good essay explaining this. On the website.

great explaination..really deep and peculiar, thanks
