胸のこの痛みは
This pain in my heart
もう貴方が最後かもしれない
Could be caused by you, my last one
ほらねもどかしいの
See, it's so frustrating,
容易く崩れてしまうこともわかるから
Because I know it could crumble so easily.
「好き」って言えたら
"If only I could say I love you,"
どれだけ楽か
How much easier it would be.
ほらまた力んだまた息んだ
Look, I'm tensing up again, I'm holding my breath,
「貴方と居たい」と言えたら
"If only I could say I want to be with you,"
どれだけ楽か
How much easier it would be.
まだまだ一歩も踏み出せてないな
Yet, here I am, not even able to take a single step.
どの果実も同じような
All fruits seem pretty much the same,
味しかしないななんなんだ
They just taste the same, what on earth?
貴方が眩しすぎるか故に
Because you shine too brightly,
美しい太陽よ私の側でさ
Oh beautiful sun, stay by my side.
泣いたのは
I cried,
決して貴方のせいではないよ
It's never your fault, you know.
嘘じゃないよ
It's not a lie.
割り切るのは
I can let it go,
別になんともなく生きていけるよ
I can live just fine without it.
嘘じゃないよ
It's not a lie.
寄り添い合えたら
If we could snuggle close together
どれだけの不幸をも
No matter how much misfortune comes my way
愛おしく思えてくるんだろうな
I guess it's starting to feel so dear to me.
互いに傷つき離れる事があっても
Even if we hurt each other and drift apart,
気づいてはいるから戻ってくるんだ
I know you're aware, that's why you come back again.
どの愛の歌も
Every love song
いまいちしっくりこなくて困ってるよ
I'm feeling a bit off and it's bothering me.
なんなんだ
What on earth is this?
助けてほしいの温めてほしいの
I want you to save me, I want you to warm me up
その感情がさ私の弱さだ
That feeling, it's my weakness.
隠したのは
What I've hidden is
嫌われたくないからじゃないよ
Not because I don't want to be hated, you see
嘘じゃないよ
It's not a lie, no
夢見たのは
What I dreamed of was
決して貴方のせいではないよ
Never your fault at all, you know
嘘じゃないよ
It's not a lie, no
これじゃ夜も眠れないよ
This way, I can't even sleep at night
心配ないよ嘘じゃないよ
Don't worry, it's not a lie, no
またそうやって嘘をついて
Again you're telling lies like this
行ったり来たりの思いも
Back and forth with my feelings too
まとまりきらない愛も
Love that can't quite come together,
悲惨に沈むなら
If it's destined to sink in despair,
離れるのは
Parting ways
別に貴方のせいではないよ
Is not really your fault at all.
嘘じゃないよ
It's not a lie,
笑ってるのは
When I'm smiling,
無理をしているわけではないよ
It’s not because I’m forcing it, you see.
嘘じゃないよ
It's not a lie,
嘘じゃなくないよ嘘じゃないよ
It’s not no lie, it’s not a lie.
