Sleeper

In the red moon of sleepless nights
ふみんしょうのあかいつき
Fuminshou no akai tsuki
Even though I long for you, you're not here
おもいこがれてもきみはいない
Omoikogaretemo kimi wa inai
Always, yes, in crucial times
いつもそうさひつようなとき
Itsumo sou sa hitsuyou na toki
It's frustrating, this feeling
それがもどかしいきもちを
Sore ga modokashii kimochi wo

I'm like a stubborn boy
ぼくはまるでしつじゅんきのしょうねん
Boku wa maru de shishunki no shounen
Preferring the dirty over the pure
よごれたてでじゅんすいなにより
Yogoreta te de junsui nani yori
Unable to overcome these feelings, I howl at the moon
こんなおもいこえにできずつきにほえる
Konna omoi koe ni dekizu tsuki ni hoeru

In my sleep, I reach out to you, lost in you, searching for you
ぼくはねむりのなかきみをだいてきみにまよいきみをさがす
Boku wa nemuri no naka kimi wo daite kimi ni mayoi kimi wo sagasu
If I speak, I might break
こえにすればこわれてしまいそう
Koe ni sureba kowarete shimaisou
Because I want to see you, but I can't
きみにあいたいからあえないから
Kimi ni aitai kara aenai kara
So I close my eyes as if to sleep
ねむるようにめをとじてる
Nemuru you ni me wo tojiteru
This endless night, my heart is in chaos
ながすぎるよるこころはみだれる
Nagasugiru yoru kokoro wa midareru

To you, it's just a laughing matter, this pain
きみにすればわらいばなしとまらないこのいたみを
Kimi ni sureba waraibanashi tomaranai kono itami wo

Unable to fly, I hang in the sky
とべないはねそらにかざして
Tobenai hane sora ni kazashite
Tears flowing on the cheeks of a young boy
なみだつたうしょうねんのほほに
Namida tsutau shounen no hoho ni
People, someday, in the unforgettable wind
ひとはいつかわすれられぬかぜのなかで
Hito wa itsuka wasurerarenu kaze no naka de

In my sleep, I reach out to you, lost in you, searching for you
ぼくはねむりのなかきみをだいてきみにまよいきみをさがす
Boku wa nemuri no naka kimi wo daite kimi ni mayoi kimi wo sagasu
If I speak, I might break
こえにすればこわれてしまいそう
Koe ni sureba kowarete shimaisou
Because I want to see you, but I can't
きみにあいたいからあえないから
Kimi ni aitai kara aenai kara
So I close my eyes as if to sleep
ねむるようにめをとじてる
Nemuru you ni me wo tojiteru
This endless night, my heart is in chaos
ながすぎるよるこころはみだれる
Nagasugiru yoru kokoro wa midareru

Ah, with those fingers, wiping away thousands of mistakes
ああそのゆびでいくせんのあやまちをぬぐって
Aa sono yubi de ikusen no ayamachi wo nugutte
Ah, how beautiful, erasing even memories in the strong wind
ああきれいだねきおくさえすとろぼのなかでほら
Aa kirei da ne kioku sae sutorobo no naka de hora

Unable to fly, I hang in the sky
とべないはねそらにかざして
Tobenai hane sora ni kazashite
Tears flowing on the cheeks of a young boy
なみだつたうしょうねんのほほに
Namida tsutau shounen no hoho ni
People, someday, in the unforgettable wind
ひとはいつかわすれられぬかぜのなかで
Hito wa itsuka wasurerarenu kaze no naka de
