Lyrics & Translation

[English]

I'm not sad, but I'll cry

I'm kind of bored, so I'll cry

The universe is drowning in spilled tears

Everyone, there's nowhere to run

I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry, to all of mankind

It's all my fault, It's all my fault, I'm sorry

Truly, truly, truly, truly, you have my apologies

Let's all meet again inside the next ecosystem

ending, ending, endless

It's goodbye, it's the end, as far as I know

ending, ending, endless

It's a mistake, a slipup, truthfully

ending, ending, endless

It's goodbye, it's the end, as far as I know

ending, ending, endless

Just when is "someday"? I'll see you tomorrow

Because you insulted me, I’ll cry

Because I am kind of angry, I think that I will cry

The earth is broken up into small pieces

Everyone, there’s nowhere to run, huh?

I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry, to all of mankind

It's all my fault, it's all my fault, I'm sorry

Truly, truly, truly, truly, you have my apologies

Let's all meet again inside the next ecosystem

ending, ending, endless

It's goodbye, it's the end, as far as I know

ending, ending, endless

It's as though you're disturbed too

ending, ending, endless

It's goodbye, it's the end, as far as I know

ending, ending, endless

Just when is "someday"? I'll see you tomorrow

Because I saw a movie, I’ll cry.

Because it was kind of a good story, I'll cry

The universe is drowning in spilled tears

Everyone, is there somewhere to run?

I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry, to all of mankind

It's all my fault, it's all my fault, I'm sorry

Truly, truly, truly, truly, you have my apologies

Let's all meet again inside the next ecosystem

ending, ending, endless

It's goodbye, it's the end, as far as I know

ending, ending, endless

Movies are a great artform, huh?

ending, ending, endless

It's goodbye, it's the end, as far as I know

ending, ending, endless

Just when is "someday"? I'll see you tomorrow

I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry, to all of mankind

It's all my fault, It's all my fault, I'm sorry

Truly, truly, truly, truly, you have my apologies

Let's all meet again inside the next ecosystem

ending, ending, endless

It's goodbye, it's the end, as far as I know

ending, ending, endless

you and I are only people

ending, ending, endless

It's goodbye, it's the end, as far as I know

ending, ending, endless

Just when is "someday"? I'll see you tomorrow

ending, ending, endless

It's goodbye, it's the end, as far as I know

ending, ending, endless

It's a mistake, a slipup, truthfully

ending, ending, endless

It's goodbye, it's the end, as far as I know

ending, ending, endless

Just when is "someday"? I'll see you tomorrow

Just when is "someday"? Guess I'll see you then
