Lyrics & Translation
Are you gently chasing someone you long for?
Oh sweet fruit, why do you hide your nectar and stay silent?
Are you leaving the delicious parts for someone else?
Please tell me, I won't be deceived anymore.
I'm tired of just the temporary saturation.
...Throw away the colored glasses...
Oh red sky, why do you melt the sun away?
Do you blur today with your fleeting tears?
I understand, I can see it clearly.
Just the density of monochrome is enough for me.
...Stop the color tricks...
Even you, noble one, are a part of this great nature.
Show me now the still uncharted source.
Your life, living and vibrant, is colorless and transparent.
Oh yellow lily, why do you bloom at the moment of parting?
Is wanting eternal permanence called futility?
Everything I sought with my round eyes is dear to me.
Shallow dreams, come and see, come and see.
