Lyrics & Translation

[Japanese]

[English]

あっそ、それならもう寝ちゃえば？

Oh, if that's the case, why not just go to sleep already?

ささくれ⽴って閉じるスクリーン

A screen that's shuttering and closing

引けない捨て台詞のそばで

Next to the parting words I can't back away from

転がしてる Iʼm sorry

Spinning around, I’m sorry

⼀⼈ 観返した映画に

Alone, watching a movie I rewatched

⼆⼈の好きなワンシーン

The favorite scene of ours

胸が熱くなった

Made my heart race

分かり合えないことばかり

It's all just things we can't understand

でも唯⼀重なってる 奇跡的なピース

But the only thing that’s true is this miraculous piece we share

今 君を連れ出したい 笑い⾶ばしたい

Now I want to take you out, I want to burst into laughter

⼤嫌いで⼤切だなんて どうかしてるって

Hating something so much, yet feeling it’s precious—this must be crazy

暗い 病めるこの世界

It's a dark, sick world

君がいれば Life is the showtime

But with you, life is showtime

せっかくだし踊らない？ 今夜はこの1回

Since we're here, why not dance? Just for tonight, this one time

ダメなとこも全部 ひけらかせ

Show all your flaws and everything

不揃いなステップで Try

Try with clumsy steps

そんな気にさせるのって君のせいだ

It's your fault for making me feel this way

まだ⾔わない Sorry

Still not saying sorry

強⽕でかき混ぜてる間に

While stirring with high heat

スパイスの⾹りは⾶んだ

The scent of spices flew away

毒にも薬にもならない

Nothing harmful or medicinal

ハッピーエンドはうんざり

I'm tired of happy endings

埃まみれの思い出に “宝物”と名付けて

Naming dusty memories as 'treasures'

⽩々しくしてた

Made everything look pristine

些細なきっかけがあればいい

A small trigger is all it takes

⽮印が刺さったら広がってくわ

If an arrow hits, it spreads wider

今 君を連れ出したい 笑い⾶ばしたい

Now I want to take you out, I want to burst into laughter

⼤嫌いで⼤切だなんて どうかしてるって

Hating something so much, yet feeling it’s precious—this must be crazy

Why? 私にも分からない

Why? Even I don't understand

とりあえずまだ 続きそうな Story

For now, it seems like this story will go on

⽭盾し合って 揉みくちゃになって

Arguing, getting tangled up, and fighting

たどり着いた Such a feeling

Until we arrive at such a feeling

あの⽇よりたしかな⼿触りで届くと思うんだ

I think it reaches me with a more certain touch than that day

ひとりきりの世界 想像つかない

A world all alone—can’t even imagine it

こんなにまだ愛しくてどうかしてるって

Still feeling this loved, crazy about it

ツライことばっかりじゃない

It’s not all tough times

君といれば Life is the showtime

With you, life is showtime

せっかくだし踊らない？ 今夜はこの1回

Since we're here, why not dance? Just for tonight, this one time

ダメなとこも全部 ひけらかせ

Show all your flaws and everything

不揃いなステップで Try

Try with clumsy steps

そんな気にさせるのって君のせいだ

It's your fault for making me feel this way

まだ⾔わない Sorry

Still not saying sorry
