Lyrics & Translation
They say I shouldn't put it into words
I kick away such ridiculous excuses
Even if I'm told harsh things
It's like a rhythm
Pretending to be a fool
Let's liven things up, entertainment
Standing on stage, facing you
Is what I say just a fallacy, "minor"
Adults just don't understand
I want to sing, I want to dance
Breathing only through emotional arguments
If I lose joy, anger, sorrow, and pleasure, I'm not human
I want to be boiling, I want to be boiling
There’s no sin in my feelings
Laila, Laila
Clinging to a beast
Ah, I want to sing, I want to dance
There’s no sin in my words
Laila, Laila, devouring your eyelids
I want to steal you, with your eyes closed
I want to take you from there
Emotions are a hassle
Time passes without going as I wish
With this, I can't even feel motivated
I kick it away
Even if I'm told harsh things
I’ll dance, laugh, and sing
Pretending to be a fool, I’ll cut through my weakness
A model student without rebellion
Just turning a blind eye, a minor
No one teaches us
How to sing, how to dance
Even emotional arguments are wonderful
Holding all joy, anger, sorrow, and pleasure, be you
I want to be boiling, I want to be boiling
There’s no sin in my feelings
Laila, Laila
Clinging to a beast
Ah, I want to sing, I want to dance
There’s no sin in my words
Laila, Laila, devouring your eyelids
I want to steal you, with your eyes closed
I want to take you from there
Even if I hurt someone
I won't abandon you
Scared, with my eyes still closed
We don't understand our distance
I want to be boiling, I want to be boiling
There’s no sin in my feelings
Laila, Laila
Clinging to a beast
Ah, I want to sing, I want to dance
There’s no sin in my words
Laila, Laila, devouring your eyelids
I want to be boiling, I want to be boiling
There’s no sin in my feelings
Laila, Laila
Clinging to a beast
Ah, I want to sing, I want to dance
There’s no sin in my words
Laila, Laila, devouring your eyelids
I want to steal you, with your eyes closed
I want to take you from there
