[English]

Wait, understand me

It's nothing

Don't laugh at my song

SOS during the air walk

I, I, I

Right now

Drenched in ash

At the bottom of the sea

I dreamed of holding my breath until I suffocated

Just

In the sway

Gazing at the sky

My hand was blocked

The traces of a dream

Your sobs

Unable to be released

In the corner of this fleeting garden

Light is swimming

Flickering in the sky

Beyond the characters

Amidst the waves

You just faded away

What a shame

Cling tighter

Because I’ll find out

Don't laugh at my song

Falling away on the underwater train

Tears and such

No, no

Just wipe them away

If you’re leaving

Don’t come back here

With air walks and four beats

I, I, I

Just

Swallowed by indigo

At the bottom of the sky

Drew a dream in the ashes

Now

Deep inside my heart

The fading light

Swiped your back away

The traces of touching

The continuation of the dream

Won't start

Even though I still won't forget

Reaching the light

Shaking in the waves

Deep in the night

In my heart

You just waved your hand

What a shame

Gently block it out

Because I don't need it anymore

Don't sing such lies

Believing and then laughing

A happy ending

Go against it

If this is the world

Don’t stop here

Cry and laugh, the first star

Love, love, love

Painted you, unvanishing

More to me

The love sucked in by strangers

It killed me

Words of expectation

Laughing as if I can't hear

Clinging tighter

Because I don’t need it anymore

Hey

Gently block it out

Our ambiguous

Love

What a shame

Wait, understand me

It's nothing

Don't laugh at my dream

Falling away on the underwater train

Tears and such

No, no

Just disappear

If you're leaving

Don’t stop here

Cry and laugh, SOS

Me, you, me

僕は　君は　僕は

Cried until the last train stopped

Drowning in that sky

[Japanese]

待って　分かってよ

何でもないから

僕の歌を笑わないで

空中散歩のSOS

僕は　僕は　僕は

今

灰に塗(まみ)れてく

海の底

息を飲み干す夢を見た

ただ

揺らぎの中

空を眺める

僕の手を遮った

夢の跡が

君の嗚咽(おえつ)が

吐き出せない

泡沫(うたかた)の庭の隅を

光の泳ぐ

空にさざめく

文字の奥

波の狭間で

君が遠のいただけ

なんて

もっと縋(すが)ってよ

知ってしまうから

僕の歌を笑わないで

海中列車に遠のいた

涙なんて

なんて

取り去ってしまってよ

行ってしまうなら

君はここに戻らないで

空中散歩と四拍子

僕は　僕は　僕は

ただ

藍(あい)に呑まれてく

空の底

灰の中で夢を描(か)いた

今

心の奥

消える光が

君の背を掻き消した

触れる跡が

夢の続きが

始まらない

僕はまだ忘れないのに

光に届く

波に揺らめく

夜の奥

僕の心に

君が手を振っただけ

なんて

そっと塞いでよ

もういらないから

そんな嘘を歌わないで

信じてたって笑うような

ハッピーエンドなんて

逆らってしまってよ

こんな世界なら

君はここで止まらないで

泣いて笑ってよ一等星

愛は　愛は　愛は

消えない君を描(か)いた

僕に　もっと

知らない人の吸った

愛を

僕を殺しちゃった

期待の言葉とか

聞こえないように笑ってんの

もっと縋(すが)ってよ

もういらないからさ

ねぇ

そっと塞いでよ

僕らの曖昧な

愛で

なんて

待って　分かってよ

なんでもないから

僕の夢を笑わないで

海中列車に遠のいた

涙なんて

なんて

消え去ってしまってよ

行ってしまうなら

僕はここで止まらないで

泣いて笑ってよSOS

僕は　君は　僕は

最終列車と泣き止んだ

あの空に溺れていく
