日本語


地下に潜り穴を掘り続けた
どこに続く穴かは知らずに
土に濡れたスコープを片手に
君の腕を探していた

つぎはぎの幸せを寄せ集め蒔きながら
君の強さに押し潰されてた
焼けつき
焼けつき
剥がれない掌の跡
ちぎれた翼で朱く染まる雲間を裂いて
上手に羽ばたくわたしを見つけて

繭に籠もり描いた永遠は
どこに芽吹き花開くのだろう
朝はやがて闇夜を連れ戻し
わたしの眸を奪ってゆく

月灯り
手探りで重ね合い縺れては
君の在処になれると信じた
燃え尽き
燃え尽き
戻らない約束の場所
ちぎれた痛みで黒く染まる大地を駆けて
上手に羽ばたくわたしを見つけて

叫んでも聞こえぬなら
その手で壊してほしい
まだわたしを「わたし」と呼べるうちに
抱き止める君の腕が穏やかな塵に変わる
ただ静かに
天を仰いだ
焼けつき
焼けつき
剥がれない掌の跡
ちぎれた翼で朱く染まる雲間を裂いて
燃え尽き
燃え尽き
戻らない約束の場所
上手に羽ばたくわたしを見つけて

終わり

English

I crawled underground digging a tunnel
Not knowing how far the tunnel would go on for
With my soil-covered scoop in one hand
I was searching for your arm

As I gathered up my patchy happiness and sowed it
I was crushed by your strength

Burning
Burning
The scar on my palm that won’t go away
Ripping through the gaps in the red clouds with my tattered wings
Finding a me who can fly well

Where will the eternity I drew while I was in my cocoon
Put out its bud and open its flower?
The morning eventually brings back the night
Captivating me

Moonlight
I believed that as I groped around
My arm would get tangled with yours and I’d find where you are

Burning out
Burning out
You won’t come back to the place we promised
Running through the black earth in shattering pain
Finding a me who can fly well

If I can’t hear you scream
I want you to crush me in your hand
While I can still call myself “me”
Your arm holding me back becomes silent dust
I just quietly
Looked up at the sky

Burning
Burning
The scar on my palm that won’t go away
Ripping through the gaps in the red clouds with my tattered wings

Burning out
Burning out
You won’t come back to the place we promised
Finding a me who can fly well
