Swelling

歌詞

清潔すぎた思考の果て 捨てられたあの街を眺め
どうしようもないこの現実を 受け入れることもできずに
ねえ ここにはもう戻れないから 思い残すことの無いように
遠い空へただ祈りを 狂ったように捧げる

きっと いつか見たその瞳も同じように
色褪せてしまうんだろう
その時まで 輝いて

正解なんて無い 限界までこの声で歌うだけ
聞こえているんでしょう？ どこまでも響けよ
見えないように閉じきった瞼に
浮かんだ言葉が突き刺さる
Swelling…

清廉すぎた願いの果て 朽ちてゆくのを待つ未来の中
想像していたその現実と 遠く遠く かけ離れて
ねえ ここにはもう戻れないから 思い残すことの無いように
唇を噛み ただ祈りを 誰にも届かないのに

きっと いつか見たその笑顔も同じように
色褪せてしまうんだろう
その時まで 輝いて 最後の時まで

絶対なんて無い 今になって泣き叫んだ声も
聞こえているんでしょう？ 掠れたって響けよ
消えないようにこの胸の奥まで
刻んだ言葉が突き刺さる
Swelling…

Stay alive 限界だって 朽ち果てそうだ
笑っているんでしょう？ どこに居たって
さあ くだらない夢 終わらせようか

正解なんて無い 限界までこの声で歌うだけ
聞こえているんでしょう？ どこまでも響けよ
見えないように閉じきった瞼に
浮かんだ言葉が突き刺さる
Swelling…

Translation

At the end of my all-too-pure thoughts, I look at an abandoned street.
I can’t accept this helpless reality.
Come on—if I can’t return to this point, then I’ll send my prayers to the distant sky
like a mad person, so I’ll have no regrets.

My eyes will surely become discoloured
like yours, which I once saw.
Until then, they will shine.

There’s no right answer. I’ll just sing until I reach my limit.
Can you hear? Resound forever!
I sealed my eyes shut so I couldn’t see
but the words that came to mind pierced through.
Swelling…

I’m living in a future where, at the end of my all-too-pure desires, I await decay.
It’s so distant to the reality I imagined.
Come on—if I can’t return to this point, then I’ll just pray while biting my lip
so I’ll have no regrets, though my prayers won’t reach anyone.

My smile will surely become discoloured
like yours, which I once saw.
Until then, it will shine. It will shine to the very end.

There’s nothing absolute. By now, can you hear me
crying and shouting? Though my voice is hoarse, resound!
Words, which I carved deep in my chest so they wouldn’t fade,
pierce right into me.
Swelling…

Stay alive. Since I’m at my limit, it seems like I’m decaying completely.
I’m smiling, right? No matter where I am…
shouldn’t we put an end to this boring dream?

There’s no right answer. I’ll just sing until I reach my limit.
Can you hear? I hope my voice will resound forever.
I sealed my eyes shut so I couldn’t see
but the words that came to mind pierced through.
