空と平行に沿う曲線 || A Curve Running Parallel to the Sky

歌詞

そうして愛が　そっと揺らいだ
とうに世界は　崩れかけていたの
棘くらいで

順に塞いだ　12支の皆変幻自在な
爆風に飛散する光線を避けてごらんよ

敵　標的を
名残りやまぬ祭りの音

兵士の幻想
方位も無限よ

あさるなら　あいづちの間もない

ここで　どこへ　いつ
何も教えぬままいたい
ひとえに束ね　陽が
その旅を紡げたのにさ

遊びでしょねぇこんなの

吐息をした　夜咲きの地や
氷河期の火矢
竹林を抜けてあの草原
二人で見たいな

霹を　靂を　振り払いたい記憶に

正方形の
藁製のリボン

ありあまるほどの暁越え

儚さよ生きて
胞子の舞う森の隅でも
支配に変えてきた
世の些事を憂いた落ち葉

林道に君への跡
いっそひとりで　いようがもう
ひどい霧でしょうさぞ
あそびでしょ　ねぇ　こんなの

Translation

And like that, my love grew loose.
The world, long ago, had come close to crumbling away
In a crown of thorns.

The 12 zodiac signs were covered up, one by one –
Try and avoid the light rays scattered by this phantasmagorical bomb blast!

The enemy aims at its target –
The sounds of the endless festival that lingers still.

In the illusion of the soldiers,
Direction, too, is limitless.

If you’re searching, there’s no time for ums or aahs.

I don’t want to be told
Where I will travel, or when.
Though the sun, earnestly controlling me,
Has spun out my journey before me.

Hey, let’s play – like this…

I sighed. Oh, land that blooms in the night…
A fire arrow from the ice age.
I want to escape the bamboo thicket
And see those plains with you.

I want to shake off the thunder and lightning in my memories.

A square-shaped
Straw ribbon.

I’ve passed through more than enough daybreaks…

I live, transiently,
Even in this forest, in which the spores dance.
I came to rule over
The fallen leaves, unhappy with trifling things.

Tracks leading to you lie on the forest’s path.
I may rather be alone,
But the fog has grown quite thick, hasn’t it?
Hey, let’s play – like this…
