Lyrics

boku no shiranai sono kao wa
saisho kara kakushite ita no?

honno sukoshi hanashi wo shite wakatta ki ni natte ita
shiranai koto bakari shiritaku naru no wa
hontou wa nanimo shinjirarenai kara na no ka

boku tachi wa kanashimi wo seoi tsuzukete
kizu darake no sono saki ni ittai nani ga aru no? oshiete

kanashimi wa futatsu ni yorokobi wa hitotsu ni
arifureta negai mo koboshita tenohira ga
tsukameru mono nante mou nanimo nai no ni
bokura wa doushite yume wo mite shimaun darou

wasureta furi wo suru koto ga dekite mo
hana no you ni wa karenai kara
hitori no heya tarare ba wo nanbyakkai haki chirakashite
futari de ita ano toki yori omoitsumete iru zutto

omoide wa kono mama mou furetakunai
sugoshita hibi sura utagatte shimau
baka da na bokura wa
fukou mo shiawase mo seotte iku yuuki ga
masani nakatta dake da

unmei sura konna ni mo giwaku to fuan ni michite iru kara
jibun no sei ni shite mite mo raku ni nareru hazu nai yo
"ushinatta ato ni shika kizukenai" to iu kotoba wo
iya ni naru hodo kīte nao kizuke nakatta zutto

kanashimi wa futatsu ni yorokobi wa hitotsu ni
sore sura dekizu ni mogaite ita ne
wakariaeru koto nante honno sukoshi dakedo
sore demo hibi ga iroasenai no wa

kanashimi no subete wo kakushite ita nara
saisho kara bokura wa hikare atte inai to wakaru kara
futari de tsukeatta kizu no kazu ga
anata no hibi ni kawarimasu you ni
kawarimasu you ni

English Translation

Were you hiding that face
with a look I don't recognize from the beginning?

After talking for a while with you, I thought I understood you
I want to know what I don't know
Is it because I actually cannot believe anything?

We carry the burden of melancholy all our life
What is ahead of all the pain? Tell me

Split the sorrows into two, combine the joys into one
The hands that couldn't hold even the ordinary wishes
cannot seize anything anymore
But why do we still dream on?

Though we can pretend to forget
It can't wither like a flower
Alone in my room, spitting out the what-if's hundreds of times
I'm brooding over more than when we were together always

Keep the memories as they are, I don't want to touch it
I've come to doubt even the days we spent together
We are such fools, aren't we?
We just didn't have the courage to
shoulder the unhappiness nor the joys

Even fate is full of doubts and anxiety
No way it would lighten the load if I blame myself
Though I've heard the words "You notice the importance of something after losing"
so many times, yet I couldn't notice never

Split the sorrows into two, combine the joys into one
We couldn't even try that and were struggling all through
There were only a few things we understood about each other
But why aren't those days fading away?

If we were hiding all the misery
We would've known we weren't drawn to each other in the first place
Wishing for the wounds we left on each other
turn into your days
your days
