火曜日の朝は
On a Tuesday morning,
廊下ですれちがったけど
We passed by in the hallway, but,
君は気づかない
You didn’t even notice.
名前すらきっと知らない
You probably don’t even know my name.
そんなことはどうでもいい
But that doesn’t really matter.

Fake nails,
カラーコンタクト
Colored contacts,
エクステンション 髪にかざって
Extensions shimmering in my hair,

Draped in faux fur,
どうして本当の愛 捜してるの？
Why are you searching for true love?
戦うのもいいけど
Fighting is fine, but
疲れちゃったよ
I'm so tired now
夢も現実も目を閉じれば
If I close my eyes to both dreams and reality,
同じ
They're the same
だから dreaming of you
That's why I'm dreaming of you
夢にエスケープ in my room
Escaping into dreams in my room
ウソもホントウも口を閉じれば
If I close my mouth to both lies and truths,
同じ
They're the same
タマシイ揺さぶるようなセリフ
Lines that shake my soul
でも私にはもう何も聞こえない
But I can’t hear anything anymore
遠くで誰かが呼んでる
Someone's calling from afar
でもまだ帰りたくはない
But I don't want to go back yet
街のざわめき 心地いい程
The city's whispers feel so good
冷たく優しく包んでくれる
They wrap around me, cold yet gentle
わたしだけの private zone
My very own private zone
どうして居場所をいつも捜してるの？
Why am I always searching for a place to belong?
泣いて笑って
Crying and laughing
きずつくのもいいけど
It's alright to get hurt sometimes
夢も現実も目を閉じれば
If I close my eyes, dreams and reality are the same
同じ
Ah-uh
だから always with you
So I'm always with you
夢にエスケープ in my room
Escaping into dreams in my room
ウソもホントウも君がいるなら
If you're here, truth and lies both fade away
同じ
The same
逃げたい日もあるさ
There are days I just want to run away
すべてを忘れて
Forget it all
夢も現実も目を閉じれば
Both dreams and reality, if I close my eyes
同じ
The same
だから dreaming of you
So I'm dreaming of you
夢にエスケープ in my room
Escaping into dreams in my room
ウソもホントウも君がいないなら
If you're not here, lies and truths are the same
同じ
It's all the same
