Utopia

歌詞

夜空見上げ　この眼に映るものを
遠い記憶　朧げな月日を
この手に触れ　感じたもの全てを
一つ一つ　この身に刻み付けてゆく

あの日見た世界は　どこか色褪せていて
でもそんな日々すべてが　少し愛おしい

描いた理想郷は　ひどく歪だけれど
いつだってそう　幻想だろう　叶うことも無く
掲げた理想論は　雨に濡れて溶けてく
そうやって今日　去った昨日　明日へ託してゆく

共鳴する螺旋　触れ合う点と線と
瞬間の衝動と　満たされる心と
連綿と続く中で　微かに光る
ただそれだけ　集めて糧にしてその先へ

手を伸ばしたって遠く　手に入れたって遠く
ただひたすらに足掻いて　一つ手にして
何回も繰り返して　幾度と無く諦めかけたその果てで
見つけた世界

描いた理想郷は　ひどく歪だけれど
幻想だって　いいんだろう　全て受け入れて
掲げた理想論は　過去に捨てて踏み出す
そうやって今日　去った昨日　明日を生きてゆく

Translation

I gazed up at the sky, at the things I could see
And at the hazy days in my distant memories.
I will engrave everything that I touched and experienced
Into my heart, one by one.

The world I saw that day loses its colours, bit by bit
But those days are all quite dear to me.

The utopia I dreamed up was awfully distorted.
It’s always the same—I guess it’s an illusion that will never be realised.
The idealistic arguments I adopted were wet by the rain. They fade away
And thus, I will entrust today and days gone past to tomorrow.

A helix comes together, like dots and lines meeting.
It’s formed from momentary impulses and my satisfied heart.
As it continues, it faintly sparkles
But that’s all I need. It will be my nourishment as I move on.

I had to stretch my hands out into the distance to lay hands on it.
Still, I struggled and obtained a single one.
I did it over and over, and when I was about to give up…
I discovered this world.

The utopia I dreamed up was awfully distorted.
It’s always the same—I guess it’s an illusion that will never be realised.
The idealistic arguments I adopted were wet by the rain. They fade away
And thus, I will entrust today and days gone past to tomorrow.
