RAKUEN || PARADISE

歌詞

どんだけ求め どんだけ求め どんだけ求めて
どんだけ千切れ どんだけ千切れ どんだけ千切れて

もう消え去ってしまった舟 何処へも漕げず
もう目に見えなくなった夢 忘れ去られて
そう人は大なり小なりと身勝手な故
もう不都合な真実を亡きものとする

渡り鳥 楽園の方へ
仮初めの自由を手に 羽を広げて すすり鳴いてた

手に入れた者だけが失う怖さを知っていた
揺れ揺られ繰り返す 己だけの楽園
どんだけ求め どんだけ求め どんだけ求めて
どんだけ千切れ どんだけ千切れ どんだけ千切れて

そう人生は宇宙旅行 見果てぬ飛行
そう無重力の中でも足場求めて

空を行く足跡は消え
気づいたら叫び声も届かないまま 聞こえないまま

夢ばかり見る者と夢など見れない者達の
中の道抜けたまま 失われた楽園
どんだけ求め どんだけ求め どんだけ求めて
どんだけ千切れ どんだけ千切れ どんだけ千切れて

「あの頃は良かったな」 綺麗に着飾る過去達を
並べ眺めてぼやく それも一つ楽園

手に入れた者だけが失う怖さを知っていた
揺れ揺られ繰り返す 己だけの楽園
どんだけ求め どんだけ求め どんだけ求めて
どんだけ千切れ どんだけ千切れ どんだけ千切れて

Translation

How long have I searched? How long have I searched? How long have I searched?
How torn up is it? How torn up is it? How torn up is it?

Their vessel has long vanished. They cannot row it anywhere.
They left behind dreams that were no longer in sight.
Yes – because humans are egotistical beings,
They part with truths that are no longer convenient.

Birds of passage head toward paradise.
Obtaining temporary freedom, they spread their wings and sobbed.

I knew fear that only those who experience it part with
And I kept trembling in this paradise for me alone.
How long have I searched? How long have I searched? How long have I searched?
How torn up is it? How torn up is it? How torn up is it?

That’s right – life is a voyage through space. It’s an endless journey.
That’s right – even in zero gravity, humans search for a foothold…

I travelled through the sky and my footprints faded away.
I realised that my cries still couldn’t reach you. They still couldn’t be heard.

A lost paradise exists away from the middle road
Between those who only dream and those who cannot dream.
How long have I searched? How long have I searched? How long have I searched?
How torn up is it? How torn up is it? How torn up is it?

“Things were so good back then.” I line up prettily decorated pasts
Then stare at them and mumble. That, too, is a form of paradise.

I knew fear that only those who experience it part with.
I kept trembling in this paradise for me alone.
How long have I searched? How long have I searched? How long have I searched?
How torn up is it? How torn up is it? How torn up is it?
