Lyrics & Translation

[Japanese]

[English]

出会いには嘘がある

There are lies in encounters

別れには本当がある

There is truth in farewells

途中で混ざり合いながら

While mixing along the way

綺麗事じゃなくなる

It becomes more than just pretty words

それだけじゃないんだけど

But it's not just that

グラデーションに欺かれて

Deceived by the gradient

気付いた時には

By the time I realized

心変わり

A change of heart

思い通りにならなかった夜に

On a night that didn't go as I wished

ほつれる旬を見逃しちゃった

I missed the fleeting moment

嫌ね

I hate it

寝れないよ

I can't sleep

いつも通り

As usual

独りになって

Being alone

アヒルのように浮いてさ

Floating like a duck

ああ、もうあなたとは会えない

Ah, I can no longer meet you

一番良い時期に

At the best time

予感は現れない

The premonition doesn't appear

次のページが破れていても

Even if the next page is torn

気付かないんだから

I wouldn't notice

デタラメな話さえ

Even the nonsense stories

みんな信じているのに

Everyone believes in them

他人に心を預けるの

Entrusting my heart to others

求め合って

Seeking each other

慰め合った昨日の旬に酔ってた

I was intoxicated by yesterday's fleeting moment

互いの秘密さえオープンだった気がしてた

I felt like even our secrets were open

ふやけきった心の隅にまだ置いてあったよ

Still kept in the corner of my softened heart

ああ、まだあなたを想ってる

Ah, I'm still thinking of you

しじまの中にも聞こえる

I can hear it even in the silence

さめざめと泣く内側よ

The inner self crying softly

今気付いただけか

Did I just realize it now?

もっと前からだったんでしょ

It must have been from earlier, right?

見つめ合った心の目は

How much did the eyes of our hearts know?

どこまで知ってたんだろう

I didn't need kindness

優しさなんていらなかった

“See you”

「じゃあね」

I can't say it

言えないよ

As usual

いつも通り

We embraced each other

抱きしめ合った

抱きしめ合った

あれはなんだったんだろう

What was that?

言葉にならないよ

Words can't express it

心変わり

A change of heart

思い通りにならなかった夜に

On a night that didn't go as I wished

ほつれる旬を見逃しちゃった

I missed the fleeting moment

嫌ね

I hate it

寝れないよ

I can't sleep

いつも通り

As usual

独りになって

Being alone

アヒルのように浮いてさ

Floating like a duck

ああ、もうあなたとは会えない

Ah, I can no longer meet you

嫌いになんないで

Don't let me hate you

好きじゃなくてもいいから

It's okay if you don't love me

どうでもいいと

I can't think

まだ思えないんだ
