Lyrics & Translation

[English]

Want some time

Get out of my life

I smile to hide, saying I'm alright

Memories I don't want to recall won't fade away

Just let me sleep, at least for today

I didn't know anything back then, yet you deceived me

You smiled while lying to my face

And you never said goodbye

Cause I'm always the good one, right?

Just say it—yes or no

You did cross the line (Line)

I was always blind (Blind)

Go ahead and blame me

If that’s what you need

(Eh) I trusted you completely (Oh) I loved you

What about you? What about you?

I cannot forgive you, —give you, —give you

Then I'm gonna miss you, miss you, miss you

I couldn't say a single word to you

Cause I'm just a kid, I'm just a kid

You don’t know how much I loved you, loved you, loved you

Even though I swore "never again"

I don't know if I'm ready or not

Forgive me

Cause I'm just a kid, I'm just a kid

(Oh)

Just a kid, yeah, Woo

Yeah, promised me the world

Then you locked me in the walls

Something went so wrong

Trying to cut you off

Then I hear you, it's your voice

You know what I'm dying for

Yeah, I don't wanna write this song, honestly (Uh)

These painful memories are killing me (Yeah)

The only thing I still want to hear is you saying "Sorry"

Yeah, you took away my light and gave me nothing back

I have become stronger

Cuz I had to start over on my own

You did cross the line (Line)

I was always blind (Blind)

Go ahead and blame me

If that’s what you need

I trusted you completely, I loved you

What about you? What about you?

I cannot forgive you, —give you, —give you

Then I'm gonna miss you, miss you, miss you

I couldn't say a single word to you

Cause I'm just a kid, I'm just a kid

You don’t know how much I loved you, loved you, loved you

Even though I swore "never again"

I don't know if I'm ready or not

Forgive me

Cause I'm just a kid, I'm just a kid

(Ooh)

All a li-i-ie

Nothing's fi-i-ine

Can't forgive you (Forgive you)

Forgive you (Forgive you)

Hate that I

Still sometimes

Need to need you (Need you)

Need you

I cannot forgive you, —give you, —give you

Then I'm gonna miss you, miss you, miss you

I couldn't say a single word to you

Cause I'm still a kid, still a kid

I cannot forgive you (Yeah), —give you, —give you

I don't wanna miss you, miss you, miss you

Even now it hurts, hurts, just a little

Yeah, cause I'm just a kid

I'm just a kid, ooh woah

Key Grammar Structures

• I smile to hide, saying I'm alright

  ➔ Infinitive of purpose (to hide) + present‑participle clause (saying) used as a reduced adverbial.

  ➔ The infinitive "to hide" expresses the purpose of the smile, while "saying" is a present participle that forms a reduced clause meaning "while I am saying...".

• I didn't know 何も知らなかった私を

  ➔ Past simple negative with auxiliary did + base verb (didn't know).

  ➔ "didn't know" is the negative form of the past simple; the auxiliary "did" is followed by the base verb "know".

• You never said goodbye

  ➔ Simple past negative with adverb of frequency (never).

  ➔ "never" is placed before the past verb "said" to emphasise that the action did not happen at any time.

• Cause I'm always the good one right?

  ➔ Tag question (right?) added to a declarative sentence for confirmation.

  ➔ "right?" is a tag question that turns the statement "I'm always the good one" into a request for agreement.

• You did cross the line (Line), I was always blind (Blind)

  ➔ Emphatic do + past verb (did cross) for strong assertion.

  ➔ "did cross" uses the auxiliary "did" for emphasis, stressing that the crossing really happened.

• I cannot forgive you, —give you, —give you

  ➔ Modal verb (cannot) + infinitive (forgive) expressing ability/possibility.

  ➔ "cannot" is a modal verb that negates the ability to "forgive"; the infinitive "forgive" follows directly after the modal.

• I don't know if I'm ready or not

  ➔ Indirect yes/no question introduced by "if" after a verb of knowing.

  ➔ "if" introduces an indirect question "if I'm ready or not" following the verb "don't know".

• I have become stronger

  ➔ Present perfect (have become) indicating a change that has relevance to the present.

  ➔ "have become" is the present perfect form of "become", showing that the speaker's strength has increased up to now.

• I don't wanna write this song, honestly

  ➔ Informal contraction "wanna" = "want to" + infinitive.

  ➔ "wanna" is a colloquial reduction of "want to"; it is followed directly by the infinitive "write".

• 思い出したくないのに消えない

  ➔ Japanese "verb‑ないのに" expresses a contrast: "although I don't want to…".

  ➔ "思い出したくない" means "don't want to remember"; "のに" adds the meaning "even though/although" to the whole clause, resulting in "even though I don't want to remember, it won't disappear".
