Lyrics:

[日本語]

[English]

頭じゃわかっていても

Even though I understand it in my head

心が追いつかない

My heart can’t keep up

カラダは単純なのね

My body is so simple, isn’t it?

男なら尚更ね

Especially if you're a man, even more so

あぁあ

Ah...

夜な夜なゆらゆらいでも

Night after night, swaying back and forth

未だに君がいちばん

You're still the one I love the most

最低で大好きだった

I hated how low you were, but I loved it too

なんでかな

Why is that?

ムカつくわ。もう

It makes me so mad. Really.

忘れちゃいたいのに

I wanna forget, but

ずっと傷つけられてばっかだったのに

I’ve kept getting hurt all this time

シンデレラボーイ 0時を回って

Cinderella Boy, after midnight

腕の中であたしを泣かせないで

Don’t make me cry in your arms

気づかないふりをしてそのまま

Pretending not to notice, just like that

つけるタバコが大嫌い

I really hate the smell of cigarettes

濡れたままのバスタオル

Damp towel, hanging in the bathroom

浴室にかけた8時

The clock says 8 o'clock

散らかった部屋にはひとり

Alone in the messy room

またカラダ許してしまったな

Again, I let my guard down around you

あなたがいなくなっても

Even if you’re gone

あたしは平気そうです

I act like I’m fine

連絡はたまにするね

We still keep in touch sometimes

意地悪くらいさせてよね

Let me be a little spiteful, okay?

嘘くらいせめてちゃんと

At least tell the truth, properly

次は上手につかなきゃね

Next time, I need to do better at pretending

あたしの前だけで弱さを見せて

Show your vulnerability only in front of me

無邪気な顔で呼んでみて

Call me with a naïve face

あなたの瞳 独占させて

Let me have your eyes, all to myself

誰も見ないでいて欲しかっただけ

I just wanted you to be the only one to see

死んで

Die...

シンデレラボーイ 0時を回って

Cinderella Boy, after midnight

腕の中であたしを泣かせないで

Don’t make me cry in your arms

気づかないふりをしてそのまま

Pretending not to notice, just like that

つけるタバコが大嫌い

I really hate the smell of cigarettes

好きって言わんでよ 愛しても無いのに

Don’t have to say you love me, I don’t love you back

瞳の奥、あたしを捕まえて

In the depths of your eyes, it’s me you catch

気づかないふりをしてそのまま

Pretending not to notice, just like that

騙されてあげていたの

I was just deceiving myself
