Miraa ga utsushidasu maboroshi wo ki ni shinagara
Itsu no ma ni ka sokudo ageteru no sa
Doko e ittemo ii to iwareru to
Hanpa na ganbou ni wa hyoushiki mo zenbu haiiro da
Kono yurameki koyoi no yume wo egaku
Anata no fudesaki kawaite imasen ka
Aoi sora ga mienu nara aoi kasa hirogete
Ii ja nai ka kyanbasu wa kimi no mono
Shiroi hata wa akirameta toki ni dake kazasu no
Ima wa makka ni sasou tougyuushi no you ni
Karaa mo iroaseru keikoutou no moto
Shirokuro no chesuboodo no ue de kimi ni deatta
Bokura wa hitotoki mayoinagara yorisotte
Arekara hitotsuki oboete imasu ka
Orenji iro no yuuhi wo tonari de miteru dake de
Yokatta noni na kuchi wa wazawai no moto
Kuroi fuku wa shisha ni inoru toki ni dake kiru no
Wazato makka ni nokoshita ruujuu no ato
Mou jibun ni wa yume no nai e shika kakenai to iu nara
Nuritsubushite yo kyanbasu wo nando demo
Shiroi hata wa akirameta toki ni dake kazasu no
Ima no watashi wa anata no shiranai iro |

I worry about the image reflected in the mirror
And in no time at all, I’ve picked up speed
When you’re told you can go anywhere you want
Then your wishes are half-hearted and even the signposts are grey
You paint the lights, the dreams you’re having tonight
Hasn’t your brush dried up yet?
If you can’t see the blue sky, put up a blue umbrella
That’ll do, right? The canvas is yours
A white flag is something you only hold up when you’ve given up
Now I’m waving a red flag, like a matador
The colors faded under the fluorescent lights
And on that black and white chess board, I met you
We hesitated for a moment and then snuggled together
It’s been a month since then, do you remember?
Just watching the orange sunset by your side was enough for me
But the mouth causes catastrophes
Black clothes are something you only wear when you’re praying for the dead
I’ve deliberately left bright red traces of blusher on
If you say the only pictures you can paint now are dreamless
Then paint it out on the canvas, as many times as it takes
A white flag is something you only hold up when you’ve given up
Now I am a color you don’t know |
