勿忘草 || Forget-me-not

歌詞

継ぎ足された眠り
微睡みの中溺れてる
まるで映画みたい
窓に射す光の色

変わらない毎日は波のようにほら
私を少しずつ連れ去るんだよ　ほんの僅か
少しだけ笑うことが少なくなったような
気もするけど仕方ないんだよね
言い聞かせて

聞きたくないな

思い出だけが変わらずそこで
枯れない花みたいに揺れてる
知らないうちに時を過ごして
目指す場所も変わっていく

少しずつ色褪せていく日々
揺れる花の色

理解り合ったつもり
時計の針は戻らない
足りない歌の欠片
何もかも違っていた

待ち合わせの人々の隙間を抜けて
街の中、雑踏に溶け込んでいる　染まるように
私の手の届く場所に何があって
何が足りないのかわからないけれど
何もないや

あの日の夢はとうに忘れてしまったけど
ずれていく自分には気付いているよ
もう帰れないとしても
髪を少し、短くした

写真に写る自分が少し
眩しく見えた午後の日差し
それでも誰に負けることなく
割とうまく、過ごしてるよ

思い出だけが変わらずそこで
枯れない花みたいに揺れてる
知らないうちに時を過ごして
目指す場所も変わっていく

少しずつ色褪せていく日々
揺れる花の色

Translation

I slumbered a little longer
drowning in light sleep.
It was just like a movie
the same colour as the light shining through the window.

These constant days are like waves. See?
They’re gradually taking me away, just a little.
I feel like I’m smiling less than I used to
but that’s just how it is,
or so I tell myself.

I don’t want to hear it.

My memories stay the same,
swaying there like an eternal flower.
Unbeknownst to me, I pass the time
and the place I’m heading to changes as well.

The days gradually fade.
They’re the colour of the swaying flowers.

I intended for us to understand each other
but the clock’s hands won’t turn back.
I don’t have enough song fragments.
Everything was all wrong.

I slip through the gaps in people waiting
and melt into the city’s crowds like I’m blending in.
Something’s within reach.
I don’t know what I’m missing
but there’s nothing there.

I’ve long since forgotten what I dreamt that day
but I’ve noticed that I’m getting out of sync.
I can’t go back
but I cut my hair a bit shorter.

I was there in the photo
and I looked a little radiant in the afternoon sun.
But I won’t lose to anyone.
I’m living relatively smoothly.

My memories stay the same,
swaying there like an eternal flower.
Unbeknownst to me, I pass the time
and the place I’m heading to changes as well.

The days gradually fade.
They’re the colour of the swaying flowers.
