明け方の憂鬱は 甘く永い瞬きの後で
俯いている間に いつかの夢は遠く離れて
気づいたら独り
なんとなくそこにあった 大きな虚ろを
もうこの手で繕えずに ただ眺めるだけ
入り組んだ心の奥の 誰にも見えぬ場所に
圧し殺してきた何かが 目醒めないように
人知れず演じ続けた 何処かの誰かを
庇いきれず 永遠に続くマスカレード
頼りなく 吐き出された
煙にも似た 交わり 手繰って
今日も誰かを 愛したい
ほんのすぐ傍にあった孤独も
気づかないくせに
ただ愛を手にするために 小さな嘘重ね
愛を受け容れるために また嘘を吐く
耳許を擽るような 仮初めの優しさじゃ
堰を切ったこの心は 満たせないのに
蜘蛛の巣のような世界で 怯える私を
掬いあげる存在も いない街角で
歪な暖かい闇の中へ
The melancholy of dawn
From after my drowsy eyes had blinked
While my head was dropped
A dream I once saw now far away
I find myself alone
I gaze at the emptiness that once existed there
No longer can I put it back together
Through the maze in the back of my heart
Where no one can see
I try not to wake up what I have kept under
So I pretend to be someone else
While hiding myself from others
Unable to keep up the act
In this neverending masquerade
I reach out for closeness
In companionships as helpless as smoke exhaled
Today again I want someone to love
Even though I don't notice
The solitude that's right next to me
I cover up my lies just to obtain love
And I lie even more so I can accept love
Fleeting kindness only tickles these ears
And cannot fill this ruptured heart
Frightened in a spider-spun web of a world
No one to scoop me out of here
I sink from the street corners
Into the warm and irregular shadows
