Lyrics

Japanese	Romaji	English
悲しみの海に沈んだ私	kanashimi no umi ni shizunda watashi	I've sunk so low in the sea of sadness
目を開けるのも億劫	me o akeru no mo okkuu	That even opening my eyes is not worth the effort
このままどこまでも堕ちて行き	kono mama doko made mo ochite yuki	And this rate to what depths shall I descend
誰にも見つけられないのかな	dare ni mo mitsukerarenai no kana	Unable to be found by a single soul?

どこへ向かい, 何をすれば？	doko e mukai, nani o sureba?	Where should I turn, what should I do?
ふと射し込む一筋の光	futo sashikomu hitosuji no hikari	A single ray of light suddenly shines through
手を伸ばせば届きそうだけど	te o nobaseba todokisou dakedo	If I stretch out my hand it's as if I can reach
波に拐われて見失った	nami ni sarawarete miushinatta	But the tides carry me off and I lose it

あれは一体なんだったのかな	are wa ittai nan datta no kana	What in the world could it have been?
あたたかくて眩しかったの	atatakakute mabushikatta no	So warm and dazzling it was
無意識のカウンターイルミネーション	muishiki no kauntaa irumineeshon	Who was that liar unconsciously giving off
嘘つきは誰？	usotsuki wa dare?	That bioluminescence?

深海少女　まだまだ沈む	shinkai shoujo mada mada shizumu	Deep sea girl, still yet sinks down
暗闇の彼方へ閉じこもる	kurayami no kanata e tojikomoru	Shutting herself away in the shadowy beyond
深海少女　だけど知りたい	shinkai shoujo dakedo shiritai	Deep sea girl, yet still she wants to know
心惹かれるあの人を見つけたから	kokoro hikareru ano hito o mitsuketa kara	For she's found the person who captivates her heart

昼も夜も無かったこの場所	hiru mo yoru mo nakatta kono basho	This place had neither day nor night
なのに眠れない夜は続く	nano ni nemurenai yoru wa tsuzuku	Yet the sleepless night go on
自由の羽を大きく広げて	jiyuu no hane o ookiku hirogete	You were beautiful as you freely
泳ぐあなたは綺麗でした	oyogu anata wa kirei deshita	Spread your great wings and swam down

そしてまた光は降りそそぐ	soshite mata hikari wa furisosogu	And then once more light showers down
見とれていたら目が合った	mitorete itara me ga atta	As I gazed entranced, our eyes met
気付いてこっちを振り返るあなたに	kizuite kotchi o furikaeru anata ni	When you took notice and turned towards me,
嘘つきな私…	usotsuki na watashi…	I lied to you…

深海少女　わざわざ沈む	shinkai shoujo wazawaza shizumu	Deep sea girl, purposely sinking down
暗闇のさなかに赤い頬	kurayami no sanaka ni akai hoho	The red cheek amidst the surrounding shadows
深海少女　ハダカの心を見せる勇気	shinkai shoujo hadaka no kokoro o miseru yuuki	Deep sea girl, the black ocean
黒い海がまだ許さない	kuroi umi ga mada yurusanai	Still won't allow her the courage to bare her heart

こんなに服は汚れてしまった	konna ni fuku wa yogorete shimatta	My clothes have become so ragged
笑顔も醜くゆがんでいった	egao mo minikuku yugande itta	And my smile so unsightly twisted
誰にも合わせる顔なんて無いの	dare ni mo awaseru kao nante nai no	I couldn't possibly face anyone like this
もう放っておいてよ！	mou hotte oite yo!	Oh, just leave me be!

声にならない気持ちが溢れてとけた	koe ni naranai kimochi ga afurete toketa	Unspoken emotions flowed out and melt away
次の瞬間、君が突然姿を消した	tsugi no shunkan kimi ga totsuzen sugata o keshita	The next moment, you suddenly disappeared from view

心配性の　彼女は焦る	shinpai shou no kanojo wa aseru	Deep fears fill her, and she frets
闇が彼を隠しひとりきり	yami ga kare o kakushi hitori kiri	The shadows hide him, she's all alone
限界少女　その手を伸ばす	genkai shoujo sono te o nobasu	Reaching her limit, she stretches out her hand

「ほらね、君も素敵な色を隠してた」	"hora ne kimi mo suteki na iro o kakushiteta"	"See now, you too were hiding a wonderful color."

深海少女　腕を引かれる	shinkai shoujo ude o hikareru	Deep sea girl, pulled by her arm
歌う祝福のマリンスノー	utau shukufuku no marin sunoo	The marine snow sings a song of blessing
深海少女　もっと知りたい	shinkai shoujo motto shiritai	Deep sea girl, wants to know yet more
心惹かれるあの人を見つけたから	kokoro hikareru ano hito o mitsuketa kara	For she's found the person who captivates her heart

この海を出て　今飛び立つの	kono umi o dete ima tobitatsu no	Leaving this sea, now I'll fly
