Lyrics & Translation

[English]

Instead of "I'm home," I quiet the sound of the door

Stealthily entering a dark room, beyond the days spent sleeping

Hanging a bag that finally feels lighter on my shoulder

Walking quickly down streets filled with children's voices, not even tired

For you, who hesitated even to say "I'm lonely,"

I want you to let it overflow, to spill out naturally

If words are not enough, then quickly open the door

Just telling you "Take care," waiting eagerly for your return

I no longer need your gentle kindness—just let me be selfish with you

Dreams and purpose in life are just big, silly fairy tales

Without you, it's just nothing, the same as nothing at all

The scene of "I'm home, welcome back" echoes strangely

Still, life is busier than dreams or ideals, far from perfect

My bag gets heavy quickly, and I’m amazed at how clumsy I am

From you, who hesitated even to say "I'm lonely,"

I was the one who caused "it’s about to overflow" to spill out

Promises are already tattered, but you still smiled—oh...

Liars sometimes say lofty things, but I want you to forgive me

Even if I fall far from keeping my promises, I swear to try

While being supported and saved by you, I hold on

Just telling you "Take care," waiting eagerly for your return

I no longer need your gentle kindness—just let me be selfish with you

Dreams and purpose in life are just big, silly fairy tales

Without you, it’s just nothing, the same as nothing at all

On days when I don't hear "I'm home, welcome back"

Oh, tomorrow I’ll get home early, probably

Sorry, always, really

[Japanese]

「ただいま」の代わりに扉の音を殺して

暗い部屋へと抜き足差し足で入り込んで眠る日々の先に

やっと軽くなったカバンを肩に掛けて

子供の声飛び交う道 寝不足らしくもない早歩きで進む

「寂しい」と告げる事さえ躊躇ってたあなたには

「溢れ出しそう」を溢れ出さして欲しいんだ

どんな言葉も力不足なら 早くドアを開けよう

ただ「気をつけて」と伝え帰りを待ち侘びてた

あなたの優しさにはもう用はない わがままだけ聞かせて

夢や生き甲斐って馬鹿でかい絵空事の中

あなたがいなくちゃ何にもないのと同じ

「ただいま、おかえり」のくだりがやけに響く

とはいえ暮らしとは理想よりずっと忙しなく

すぐに鞄の中重くなって 要領の悪さに我ながらに呆れる

「寂しい」と告げる事さえ躊躇ってたあなたから

「溢れ出しそう」を溢れ出さしたのは僕なのに

約束はもうボロボロになってた それでも笑ってくれた あぁ...

嘘つきが偉そうな事また言うけれど 許してほしい

有言実行にはほど遠くても誓う事で

あなたに支えてもらいながら 救われながら

ただ「気をつけて」と伝え帰りを待ち侘びてた

あなたの優しさにはもう用はない わがままだけ聞かせて

夢や生き甲斐って馬鹿でかい絵空事の中

あなたがいなくちゃ何にもないのと同じ

「ただいま、おかえり」のくだりがない日も聞こえる

ああ、明日は早く帰れるよ おそらくだけど

いつもごめんほんと
