Genjitsu wo Warau

You say those proverbs as if you had contrived them
I know your arrogance, but do not point it out
And you've not changed a bit in three long dismal years
I think your flaw isn't so much your fault as a charm
Maybe I will meet you one day
Maybe Wednesday, maybe not, not
Still, I'm sure to meet you anyway
Maybe Thursday, maybe not, not

I want to be you
Just like a leaf that has flown away with the wind and the rain
This romance is so mellow, and so real
Just like a song that has died away with a flash in the night
I would like to be composed of you

You tell your stories as if you had no respect for anyone
I sing my songs as if I were a prostitute
You take a snap at me, and stuff yourself on my welfare
I feel like i am clinging to a cloud
Maybe I will kiss you slowly
Maybe quickly, maybe not, not
Still, I'm sure to kiss you anyway
Maybe sweetly, maybe not, not

I want to be you
It's hard to spend
A lifetime for myself
With the quakes and the storm
This romance is an error
And surreal
It's clear that I
Love your insensitiveness
Like the hills and the sky
I would like to be merged into you
