Lyrics & Translation

[English] 20GB of a huge cloud
Stuff it, funny about
That day, joking around, small talks
You never really think of me
A shy, awkward smile
An hour I can't spend alone
You’re all in, but I’m okay. See you later
(Hey boy, you don’t have much time)
I want to choose, not too sweet chocolate
(Okay, here’s that dollar dollar bill, yay)
Are you grown-up? I don't know, I don't care
(It disappears in an instant, baby)
If you have a little time...
Everything’s more complicated than before
Tangled wires, can't untangle
That, this and that, we questioned in ‘22
What should I do? Hasta la vista
I saw, the bottom of the bag cracked, like a biscuit
Show me when we meet, I’m waiting with surprises for the weekend
Hey Mama, do you remember her?
Hey Mama, don’t you remember him?
Hey Mama, do you remember her?
Hey Mama, don’t you remember him?
I spent so much time, endless
Tell me before you go, goodbye
Your tears, to me, are especially painful and bitter
If possible, I don’t want my enemies to know this weakness
It’s gone in a different direction from the story you wished for
It’s happened, somehow, somehow
Even as memories increase
No matter how far we go, we’re alone
Maybe that’s the only comfort we have
So someday I can properly say goodbye
Most of the time, I manage okay
Because I’m not dying or anything
I don’t care if you’re relaxed, low-key
I wish I could say ‘Hold me’
That one word feels like a distant spell
It melts away and disappears
I can hear my pain
Singing inside my mind
I can hear my pain
It’s overwhelming
Hey Mama, do you remember her?
Hey Mama, don’t you remember him?
Hey Mama, do you remember her?
Hey Mama, don’t you remember him?
I spent endless time
Tell me before you leave, goodbye
Can we be together
Like we used to be, silly
Sometimes just isn’t enough
Can we talk forever??
