Lyrics

Japanese	Romaji	English
どこにでもある丁度良い場所	doko ni demo aru choudo yoi basho	No matter where, there's a place just right
打ち捨てられた誰かの記憶	uchisuterareta dareka no kioku	In someone's abandoned memories
優しく笑う顔	yasashiku warau kao	A gentle smiling face,
こんな人は知らない　と　後ろ帯	konna hito wa shiranai to ushiro obi	"I don't know this person", thinks a young girl, sashed tied in the back
覗いた心　その中身は空っぽだった	nozoita kokoro sono nakami wa karappo datta	The mind that I read; its insides empty.
染まる赤　赤　赤	somaru aka aka aka	The staining red, red, red
どうしても消えない	doushite mo kienai	No matter what, it won't disappear
まだまだ褪せない赤い記憶	madamada asenai akai kioku	Red memories, still long to go before they fade
鼻腔満たす臭い覚えてる	bikou mitasu nioi oboeteru	I remember the smell that filled my nasal cavity
そっか　人を見送った帰り道だった	sokka hito wo miokutta kaerimichi datta	I see, it was on the way home after seeing that person off
その瞬間には今の景色が	sono shunkan ni wa ima no keshiki ga	At this moment, the present scenery
温かさだとか　優しさだとか	atatakasa da toka yasashisa da toka	crumbles away like a lie,
噓みたいに崩れ	uso mitai ni kuzure	whether it is warm or kind,
酷く薄っぺらなものに感じて	hidoku usuppera na mono ni kanjite	And I feel that something is terribly flimsy
染まる赤　赤　赤	somaru aka aka aka	The staining red, red, red
どうしても消えない	doushite mo kienai	No matter what, it won't disappear
まだまだ褪せない赤い記憶	madamada asenai akai kioku	Red memories, still long to go before they fade
心触りの良い場所で気付いた	kokorozawari no yoi basho de kidzuita	I realized that, in a nice place that touched my heart
ねえ誰	nee dare	Hey, who is it,
下腹が苦しい	onaka ga kurushii	Whose stomach aches?
馬鹿にすんなよって誰かが言った	baka ni sunna yo tte dareka ga itta	Someone told me I shouldn't make a fool of myself, like that
わたしもそう思う	watashi mo sou omou	And I believe the same
同じ希望も違う絶望も無いと思っていた	onaji kibou mo chigau zetsubou mo nai to omotteita	"I don't have the same hopes nor different fears", you thought
覗いた心	nozoita kokoro	The mind that I read;
その中には余計なものがあって	sono naka ni wa yokei na mono ga atte	Within it is that sort of unnecessary thought
落胆して失望するくらいなら何も期待しない	rakutan shite shitsubou suru kurai nara nani mo kitai shinai	I'd rather not expect anything, than be discouraged and disappointed
失いたくないから何も持たない	ushinaitakunai kara nani mo motanai	I'd rather hold onto nothing, so I can never lose anything
それが出来れば	sore ga dekireba	If I could do that...
染まる赤　赤　赤	somaru aka aka aka	The staining red, red, red
どうしても消えない	doushite mo kienai	No matter what, it won't disappear
まだまだ褪せない赤い記憶	madamada asenai akai kioku	Red memories, still long to go before they fade
鼻腔満たす臭い覚えてる	bikou mitasu nioi oboeteru	I remember the smell that filled my nasal cavity
そっか　人を見送った帰り道	sokka hito wo miokutta kaerimichi	I see, it was on the way home after seeing that person off
全て忘れたフリして	subete wasureta furi shite	Pretending to forgetting everything,
柄にも無いのに慣れない根を張って	gara ni mo nai no ni narenai ne wo hatte	Though it's out of character, I irreversibly become used to it
温かく感じていた過ぎた日常	atatakaku kanjiteita sugita nichijou	A place to belong, that daily life where I felt the warmth too much
居場所なんてなかった	ibasho nante nakatta	There was never such a thing.
もう帰り道の無い始まりの場所	mou kaerimichi no nai hajimari no basho	There was never a way home in the first place,
わたしは	watashi wa	for me...
