[日本語]

[English]

生まれたままじゃ生きてくのに不便で

It's inconvenient to live as I was born,

数えきれない物や人に染まってゆく

dyed by countless things and people.

もともとの色が見えなくなった事も

Even the fact that my original color can't be seen

忘れるくらい何度も繰り返し

is repeated so many times that I forget.

本当の自分はどこにいるんだ

Where is my true self?

僕らしいって何色なんだ

What color is truly me?

足して混ぜて出来たものが

The mixed color created by adding and mixing

綺麗な色じゃなくても

may not be beautiful, but

...

...

あの家の屋根に登ったところで

Even if I climb to the roof of that house,

見渡せるのはせいぜい隣町くらいで

I can only see as far as the next town.

もっと高いとこに登らなきゃ見えないのかな

Do I need to climb higher to see?

一人ひとつずつもらえるわけじゃないのか

Can't I get one thing at a time?

本当の自分はどこにいるんだ

Where is my true self?

しかめっ面で迷いながら

With a scowling face, I'm still searching

長い事探してるけど

after a long time, but

誰かが隠しているのかい

is someone hiding it from me?

格好悪い思い出と忘れたくない時間

Ugly memories and times I don't want to forget

同じ絵の具で描いているだけじゃなく

are not just painted with the same colors,

どこか似てるよ

but somehow similar.

...

...

自分らしさなんてきっと

The idea of being myself

思いついたり流されたり

comes and goes, and I've been searching

探し続けて歩いたその

and walking, leaving footprints

足跡の話だから

that tell my story.

本当の自分はここにいるんだ

My true self is here

今までにこれからを重ねて

overlapping my past and future,

赤も黄色も青も全部

red, yellow, blue, and all

混ぜて僕だけの色を

mixed to create my one-of-a-kind color

...

...
