感情の海に飽きていて
Tired of the ocean of emotions,
泳げないふりして戯けている
I pretend I can't swim, playing around.
でもそれすらも飽きてきているんだ
But even that is starting to bore me,
もうどうしようもない
There's really nothing more I can do.
成長しきれてない
Still not fully grown,
必ずしも「どっかの誰かのせい」ではねぇ Say Yeah
It's not always 'someone else's fault,' say yeah.
わかった様な口で歩み寄ってくれるけど
You come closer with a knowing smile,
嬉しくないしとにかく解れてない
But it doesn’t make me happy, and we still haven't untangled.
優越に浸る様に 友に成る様に
Like soaking in superiority, like becoming friends,
まるで隠しきれていない
It's as if I can't hide it at all.
基本的に本物のものしか信じない
Basically, I only believe in what's real
オーラが腐ってちゃ居られない
I can't let this aura go bad
でもそれすらもわからなくなってきてんだ
But even that is starting to slip away from me
何を信じていればいいの?
What should I put my faith in?
もうそれすらもわからなくなってきてんだ
I can't even figure that out anymore
ベッドの上で和んでいて
Relaxing together on the bed
忙しさに腕掴まれている
Caught up in the busyness
でもそれすら和んできているんだ
But even that is starting to feel comforting
もうどうしようもない
There's nothing I can do about it now
君と僕の間にはない
There's nothing between you and me
必ずしもこの人が「ずっと人生のBEST」なわけねぇ
This person isn't necessarily my 'forever best' in life.
限りなく薄く薄く薄めてみたみたい
It feels like I tried to dilute it endlessly, so thin.
おいしくないしとにかく味がしない
It's not tasty, and anyway, it has no flavor.
でもそれすらも味わんなきゃいけないみたいだ
But it seems I have to taste even that.
正義を貫くヒーロー
A hero who insists on justice.
正義に追われるヒーロー
A hero chased by justice.
もうそれすらもわかんなくなってきてんだ
I'm starting to lose even that sense.
期待に応えるヒーロー
A hero who meets expectations.
期待に追われるヒーロー
A hero chased by expectations.
もうそれすらもわかんなくなってきてんだ
I'm starting to lose even that sense.
嗚呼 嫌 鈍感が増えてゆく
Ah, how I hate, the numbness is increasing.
嗚呼 嫌 そんな親が増えてゆく
Ah, how I hate, more parents like that are on the rise.
嗚呼 嫌 鈍感が増えてゆく
Ah, how I hate, the numbness is increasing.
嗚呼 嫌嫌親が増えてゆく
Ah, how I hate, more and more parents like that are appearing.
嗚呼 嫌 鈍感が増えてゆく
Ah, how I hate, the numbness is increasing.
嗚呼 嫌 そんな親が増えてゆく
Ah, how I hate, more parents like that are on the rise.
嗚呼 嫌 鈍感が増えてゆく
Ah, how I hate, the numbness is increasing.
嗚呼 嫌嫌親が増えてゆく
Ah, how I hate, more and more parents like that are appearing.
何を信じていればいいの?
What should I believe in?
もうそれすらもわからなくなってきてんだ
I'm losing even that understanding now.
正義を貫くヒーロー
A hero who upholds justice,
正義に追われるヒーロー
A hero chased by justice,
もうそれすらもわかんなくなってきてんだ
I’m starting to not even understand that anymore,
もうそれすらもわかんなくなってきてんだ
I’m starting to not even understand that anymore.
