Romaji

Chigireta sora no namima kara
Kobore sasu hikari no michishirube
Chikazuite iku seijaku ni
Yawaraida fuchidori ga moeteru
Mukashi mita seisho no peeji wo
Omoidasu to anata ga waratta

Kono me sae hikari wo shiranakereba
Minakute ii mono ga atta yo
Karada ga
Anata wo shiranakereba
Hikizuru omoide mo nakatta

Roku tsuru wo kanaderu yubi wa
Watashi dake mamoru ni wa osanaku
Kuchizuke wa hanabira ni umore
Suna wo kamu you ni beru ga naru
Odori ko wa kanashimi wo matoi
Tsubureta ashi namete wa utatta

Kono me sae hikari wo shiranakereba
Minakute ii mono ga atta yo
Karada ga
Anata wo shiranakereba
Hikizuru omoide mo nakatta

Hikari mau todokanai umi de
Afureru yo ni wa anata ga mieru yo
Kotori ga koe wo koroshite ireba
Ano toki tsubasa ga oretetara
Anata ga watashi wo daite itara
Ima demo toke atte irareta?

Kono me sae hikari wo shiranakereba
Minakute ii mono ga atta yo
Karada ga
Anata wo shiranakereba
Hikizuru omoide mo nakatta

English

From the waves of the tattered sky
Comes a signpost of light
As a silence approaches
A soft edge is burning
You smiled as you remembered
That page of the Bible you read so long ago

There were things that I wouldn’t have minded not seeing
If there was no light, even in my eyes
If my body
Didn’t know you
Then I wouldn’t be dragging these memories around with me

Those fingers plucking the six strings
Were too young to protect only me
Our kisses are covered in flower petals
And a dreary bell rings
The dancer collapsed under the sadness she was carrying around
She licked her sore feet and sang

There were things that I wouldn’t have minded not seeing
If there was no light, even in my eyes
If my body
Didn’t know you
Then I wouldn’t be dragging these memories around with me

In this night, swallowed up by a sea with light dancing across it, a sea I can’t reach
I can see you
If little birds had drowned out my voice
If my wings had broken then
If you’d held me
Would we still be melted together now?

There were things that I wouldn’t have minded not seeing
If there was no light, even in my eyes
If my body
Didn’t know you
Then I wouldn’t be dragging these memories around with me
