ばかじゃないのに

Paroles:

[日本語]

[English]

これは 二十歳じゃない

I'm not twenty anymore.

作業着 剥ぎ取っても

Even if I tear off my work clothes.

まだ お線香の匂い 床に寝そべってた

I was still lying on the floor, smelling of incense.

一丁前に回り回る 扇風機に嘆いてた

Complaining about the fan spinning around so proudly.

ふと 会えない人を 思い浮かべてた

Suddenly, I thought of someone I can't see.

急な矛盾が 飼い慣らせない

Sudden contradictions can't be tamed.

誰のせいって わけじゃない

It's not really anyone's fault.

色の濃い野菜ばっかり 湯掻いてた

Just boiling vegetables with strong colors.

鮮やかな仕草に 混ざりたいのに

I want to blend into those vivid gestures.

声があるのに いつもどうして

Though I have a voice, why is it always like this?

言っとけばいいのに ばかじゃないのに

I should just say it, but I’m not stupid.

在り来りだろうけど

It's cliché, but...

僕には 君を思い返す日々で過ごしていける？

Can I spend my days thinking of you?

もう居ないのに 惹かれ合うのに

Even though you're no longer here, we’re drawn to each other.

一瞬の夏だったよ

It was just a fleeting summer.

ありがとう

Thank you.

僕に残ってる 引き摺る温もり

The warmth I still carry with me.

ずっと まだ目の前に

It's still right in front of me.

それは わたしじゃない

That’s not me.

傷つけない さよなら を

Saying goodbye without hurting each other.

靴に石入っても 歩き考えてた

Even when stones get in my shoes, I keep walking and thinking.

先ばかり気にする君と 遅れをとるわたしと

You worry only about what's ahead, and I fall behind.

ふと ぎこちない日々を 思い浮かべてた

Thinking of those slightly awkward days.

この先どうする ね どうしよう わからない

What should I do from now on? I don’t know.

君が溜息つく このやりとりに

In this back-and-forth when you sigh.

安心できる 自分がいた

I felt secure being myself.

急な矛盾が 飼い慣らせない

Sudden contradictions can’t be tamed.

何がきっかけとかじゃないけど

It’s not about what triggered it.

疲れてくことも 慣れていたと思う

I think I got used to tiring out.

それが始まりで 義務になったし

That became a duty, that was the goal, and it’s ready now.

ゴールだったし ご飯できたよ

It’s the finish line, and dinner’s ready.

言っとけばいいのに ばかじゃないのに

I should just say it, but I’m not stupid.

在り来りだろうけど

It’s cliché, but...

僕には 君を思い返す日々で過ごしていける？

Can I spend my days thinking of you?

もう居ないのに 惹かれ合うのに

Even though you’re no longer here, we’re drawn to each other.

一瞬の夏だったよ

It was just a fleeting summer.

これ以上求めた贅沢な 悲しみは

What kind of luxury sorrow do I desire more of?

何処へゆくの

Where are you headed?

君の普段着 畳む途端に

The moment you fold your usual clothes,

片付いた理屈の中で 吸って吐いて

Within the tidy logic, breathe in and out.

だって大丈夫だって

Because it’s okay, really.

終わりが近いと 仲良くなれたし

When the end is near, we can become close.

桃鉄勝って 君が寝落ちして

Winning at Momotaro Densetsu, and then you fall asleep.

自分の好き＜君の好き

My love, or your love—

が何よりも大事で

Is more important than anything.

同じ気持ちって

To realize these feelings are the same,

気づいちゃダメみたいな

It seems I mustn't notice.

さよなら ばっか だよ

It’s just goodbyes all around.

言っとけばいいのに ばかじゃないのに

I should just say it, but I’m not stupid.

在り来りだろうけど

It’s cliché, but...

僕には 君を思い返す日々で過ごしていける

Can I spend my days thinking of you?

もう居ないのに 惹かれ合うのに

Even though you’re no longer here, we’re drawn to each other.

一瞬の夏だったよ

It was just a fleeting summer.

ありがとう

Thank you.

僕に残ってる 引き摺る温もり

The warmth I still carry with me.

ずっと まだ目の前に

It’s still right in front of me.
