[English]
Two days ago, around here
The news came about someone who jumped to their death
Bloodstained sailor, false accusation on the woman
Sooner or later, this place becomes a target for the internet
“Please stay back, it's dangerous”
That line is supposed to be the signal for gathering, but
The fools who caused a fuss took endless videos like idiots
The blood flowing on the cold asphalt
That red color, so beautiful, so beautiful
I ended up crying, I really cried
Outside of those who don’t know a thing, beyond the screens
Live, live, live, keep living
Live, live, I was really alive, wasn’t I
The final farewell wasn’t to anyone else
It was to myself that I yelled
...
The tears she shed at the very end
The proof of life, red blood,
Can be wiped away in just two seconds by indifferent adults
Yellow tape marking the restricted area
“I’ve only ever seen that in dramas”
Amidst such words flying around, what is she thinking now?
I wonder what she’s feeling
From afar, from far away
I started crying, I wanted to cry
The long day is already ending
Live, live, live, keep living
Live, live, I was really alive, wasn’t I
When something new begins
Do you want to disappear?
Ah, ‘Live your life to the fullest now,’ that’s just pretty talk
Summoning all her courage, she took flight
Becoming a bird, grabbing the clouds, turning into wind, heading far away
Flying with hope in her heart
Live, live, live, keep living
Live, live, I was really alive, wasn’t I
When something new begins
Do you want to disappear?
Live, live, live, keep living
Live, live, I was really alive, wasn’t I
The final farewell wasn’t to anyone else
It was to myself that I yelled
...
Goodbye
...
Farewell
...
