歌詞

離れないで 離れないで
その背中を 息切らして追いかけてた
揺れるカーテン 手をかざして
背丈の羽を映してはからかい合う でも

気づいていた 傷みたいな
甘い意識を知って
握りすぎた 時間がほら
へこんじゃっていくみたい
それでもまだ 聞かせてほしい
その答えは知ってるのに 足りてないよ

あなたがつく嘘も 合うと逸れる瞳も
無い嫌いを数えて 教えてあげるから
「知らない」ととぼけても 忘れてはあげないよ
眉根寄せるあなたの 仕草を真似る

些細な風 なびいただけ
少し折れて 壁の針はすれ違ってく
繰り返して またはじまる
取り残された言葉たちの知らんぷり だから

叶えていた 約束はさ
ここにあったのにね
見つけていた 明日たちは
昨日になっちゃうみたい
どこへ行けばいいか わからず見上げた目印
あの日と同じ星を探し指差した

ああ 月の輪郭と薬指重ねて
仮物のベゼルは どこまで行けるかな
腫れていく瞼の 栓をひねり放すように
下ろした左手は頬をつねるため

“失うくらいならと初めから全部諦めてきた”
“誰にも嫌われたくないから一人生きようとした”
似ていたんだね そうやって二人して
逃げ合った行き止まりの交差点

未来はいらない ただお願い
この時を壊してほしくて
あなたのように 強い獅子には
どうしてもなれなさそうで
触れ確かめていたい 息をしたい
歩いていたい左隣 それなのに
ばか

ねえ あなたは今でも まだそこにいるんでしょ?
どんなに隠れていても 見つけてあげるから
晴れていく瞼と 千の昨日を結ぶように
羽を解く右手で頬を撫でる

あなたがつく嘘も 合うと逸れる瞳も
無い嫌いを数えて 教えてあげるから
「知らない」ととぼけても 忘れてはあげないよ
眉根寄せるあなたの仕草を真似る

Translation

Don’t leave, don’t leave.
I chased you until I got out of breath.
I raised a hand to the swaying curtain.
It showed the wings on my back and we bantered. And yet—

I noticed it, like a wound
and I knew sweet consciousness.
I held time too tightly close, and now
it’s like it’s all going to collapse.
But still, I want you to tell me.
I know the answer but it’s not enough.

I’ll tell you the things I hate, like the lies you tell
and your eyes, looking away when they meet mine.
Even if you say you don’t care, I won’t let you forget about them.
I’ll copy the way you frown.

With a touch of the breeze
the hooks in the wall bend a little out of place.
It happens all over again.
I act dumb about the words that were left behind.

You know, the promise that came to pass
was right here all along.
It looks like the tomorrows I found
are turning into yesterdays.
Where should I go? I didn’t know and looked up for a sign.
I pointed at the same star from back then.

Ah, I place my ring finger around the moon.
How far can this false bezel go?
I lower my left hand and pinch my cheek
like I’m twisting out the stopper in my swollen eyelids.

“Rather than lose them, I’d rather give up from the start.”
“I don’t want to be hated by anyone, so I’ve decided to live alone.”
We were alike. And so, we were together
at the dead-end intersection we escaped to.

I don’t need a future. I just have a single wish,
for you to destroy this time.
No matter what I do,
I can’t be a strong lion like you.
I just want to touch you, be sure of you. I want to breathe.
You were walking to my left,
but I was a fool.

Hey, are you still there by my side, even now?
It doesn’t matter how hard you hide, I’ll find you.
I’ll stroke your cheek with my right hand, which undoes the wings,
like tying thousands of yesterdays to my swollen eyelids.

I’ll tell you the things I hate, like the lies you tell
and your eyes, looking away when they meet mine.
Even if you say you don’t care, I won’t let you forget about them.
I’ll copy the way you frown.
