English

Every time I hid the fact that I'd been crying behind sunglasses
I believed that I'd get a little bit stronger
I've begun to notice how strange that is

I'm always pretending to be strong
Stubbornly smiling
But the truth is I'm close to tears
I'm a cowardly pretender

If you're just hiding, makeup and fashion are boring
The true self you don't show anyone else
Even I used to play those sorts of games, oh no

The blue sky will keep getting brighter today
I figure it out and look away
But the truth is I'm just not proud of my worries
I'm a pretender

If somewhere there's someone who understands
Hold out your hand
While it's open, I'll surely find it
We'll secretly forgive each other
I thought we promised
Someone's there for me, too
Today we'll meet

You're always pretending to be strong
Stubbornly smiling
But the truth is
You're a cowardly pretender, too

I don't want to hope
The rain will stop today
But the truth is I'm just not proud of my worries
I'm a pretender

If you're not in the same situation
You won't understand
Is God lonely?
That's why you can save me
We can touch each other
With just the shadows we hold up in our hearts
Someone's there for me, too
Today we'll meet
