Vermilion

I felt it faintly
かすかに感じた
Kasuka ni kanjita
The full length of my unshakeable anxiety
抜けぬえない不安の全長
Nuguenai fuan no zenchou
Pretending not to notice
気づかないそぶりで
Kizukanai soburi de
I laughed to avoid getting hurt
傷つかないよう笑った
Kizutsukanai you waratta
Just hold my breath a little longer
もう少し呼吸を止めて
Mou sukoshi kokyuu wo tomete
Without showing weakness to anyone
誰にも弱さ見せずに
Dare ni mo yowasa misezu ni
The dream won’t last much longer, you know
夢はもう長くはないと
Yume wa mou nagaku wa nai to
Yeah
そう
Sou
The die has been cast again
再は投げられた
Sai wa nagerareta

Those days painted with hot lies
熱く嘘で塗られた日々は
Atsuku uso de nurareta hibi wa
A world that’s broken and can’t be saved
壊れ、救えない世界を
Koware, sukuenai sekai wo
I still love it even now
まだ今も愛してる
Mada ima mo aishiteru
I feel like I could change someday
いつか変われるような気がして
Itsuka kawareru you na kigashite
Overlaying it with my weak self
弱い自分と重ねた
Yowai jibun to kasaneta
The sky of a too-blue tomorrow
青すぎるいつかの空
Aosugiru itsuka no sora

Continuing to look away
目を背け続けて
Me wo somuke tsuzukete
The sun that’s too close
近づき過ぎた太陽
Chikazuki sugita taiyou
If it tears through the heat
ユーレツを裂くなら
Yuuretsu wo sabaku nara
It’s me who’ll get burned
焼かれるのは
Yakareru no wa
Yeah
そう
Sou

I knew this future would come
わかってたこんな未来が
Wakatteta konna mirai ga
That far away, I’d be crying
遠くは泣いってことなんて
Tooku wa naitte koto nante
I knew it, but
わかってたけど
Wakatteta kedo
I can’t just kill my ego that easily
そんな簡単に自我を殺せずに
Sonna kantan ni jiga wo korosezu ni

Those days painted with hot lies
熱く嘘で塗られた日々は
Atsuku uso de nurareta hibi wa
A world that’s broken and can’t be saved
壊れ、救えない世界を
Koware, sukuenai sekai wo
I still love it even now
まだ今も愛してる
Mada ima mo aishiteru
I feel like I could change someday
いつか変われるような気がして
Itsuka kawareru you na kigashite
Overlaying it with my weak self
弱い自分と重ねた
Yowai jibun to kasaneta
The sky of a too-blue tomorrow
青すぎるいつかの空
Aosugiru itsuka no sora

The boring city stained red
赤く染まる退屈な街
Akaku somaru taikutsu na machi
As the cold wind slaps my cheek
冷たい風が頬を叩くように
Tsumetai kaze ga hoo wo tataku you ni
Denying the 'now'
'今'を否定する
'ima' wo hiteisuru
When I realize, going around and around, there’s
巡り巡って気づけばそこは
Meguri megutte kizukeba soko wa
A darkness where even shining stars can’t be seen
輝く星さえ見えない
Kagayaku hoshisae mienai
Eternal night
永遠の闇
Towa no yami

Those days painted with hot lies
熱く嘘で塗られた日々は
Atsuku uso de nurareta hibi wa
A world that’s broken and can’t be saved
壊れ、救えない世界を
Koware, sukuenai sekai wo
I still love it even now
まだ今も愛してる
Mada ima mo aishiteru
Crumbling as if to cling on, I screamed
すがるように崩れて叫んだ僕は
Sugaru you ni kuzurete sakenda boku wa
I was laughing, lamenting, 'how pathetic'
'哀れ'と嘆き、笑っていた
'aware' to nageki, waratteita

The wind and the sun
風と太陽
Kaze to taiyou
