Birdcage -in this cage-

Torikago -in this cage-

Far away, a bird waits for you
はるか遠くであなたを待つ一羽の鳥
Haruka touku de anata wo matsu ichi wa no tori
Folding its wings, it stands still, not flying anywhere
翼を織りたたみどこにも飛ばず佇む
Tsubasa wo oritatami doko ni mo tobazu tatazumu
The days that became vague inside the rusty cage
錆びた籠の中朧げになった日々は
Sabita kago no naka oboroge ni natta hibi wa
Shine with beautiful colors as they fade
薄れていくほどに美しい色を放つ
Usurete iku hodo ni utsukushii iro wo hanatsu
Someone, please
誰か私の声を
Dareka watashi no koe wo
Please deliver my voice
どうか届けてください
Douka todokete kudasai
To that sky, to that gap in the clouds
あの空へあの雲間へ
Ano sora e ano kumoma e
To the foot of where you sleep
あなたの眠るふもとへ
Anata no nemuru fumoto e

Flow lazily
まったり流すように
Mattari nagasu you ni

How long
時はどれくらい
Toki wa dorekurai
Has time hidden me?
私を隠したのだろう
Watashi wo kakushita no darou
Even a faint light remembers the pain
かすかな光さえ痛みを覚えていく
Kasukana hikari sae itami wo oboete iku
Someone, please
誰か私の羽根を
Dareka watashi no hane wo
Please tear off my wings
どうかちぎってください
Douka chigitte kudasai
If freedom is not a choice

I'd rather live without it
いっそ持たずに生きたい
Isso motazu ni ikitai

Engraved in my eyelids

Your figure melts into the pitch-black darkness
あなたの面影が漆黒の闇に溶ける
Anata no omokage ga shikkoku no yami ni tokeru

Nigirishimeta tenohira no netsu wo
The warmth of my clenched palm
奪い拭うように
Ubai nuguu you ni

Why am I standing here alone?
Why am I standing here alone?
Why am I standing here alone?
Emotions torn apart
