Lyrics[]

Japanese (日本語歌詞)	Romaji (ローマ字)
夕陽が落ちる様に胸が染まるので	yuuhi ga ochiru you ni mune ga somaru no de
耳鳴りのような鼓動を隠して	miminari no you na kodou o kakushite

バスに乗った僕は言う　君は灰になって征く	basu ni notta boku wa iu kimi wa hai ni natte iku
たとえばこんな言葉さえ失う言葉が僕に言えたら	tatoeba konna kotoba sae ushinau kotoba ga boku ni ietara

灯籠の咲く星の海に心臓を投げたのだ	tourou no saku hoshi no umi ni shinzou o nageta no da
もう声も出ないそれは僕じゃどうしようもなかったのだ	mou koe mo denai sore wa boku ja doushiyou mo nakatta no da

悲しくもないし苦しくもないのに	kanashiku mo naishi kurushiku mo nai no ni
辛いと思うだけ　辛いと思うだけ	tsurai to omou dake tsurai to omou dake

古びたバス停の端傘を持った僕がいる	furubita basutei no hashi kasa o motta boku ga iru
今でさえ埃を被った夜空の隅に足はつくのに	ima de sae hokori o kabutta yozora no sumi ni ashi wa tsuku no ni

心臓が痛いから死んだふりの毎日を見なよ	shinzou ga itai kara shinda furi no mainichi o mina yo
もういっそ死のうと思えたなら僕はこうじゃなかったのだ	mou isso shinou to omoeta nara boku wa kou ja nakatta no da

どうせ死ぬくせに辛いなんておかしいじゃないか	douse shinu kuse ni tsurai nante okashii ja nai ka
どうせ死ぬくせに辛いなんて	douse shinu kuse ni tsurai nante

だから愛さえないこんな世界の色に僕の唄を混ぜて	dakara aisaenai konna sekai no iro ni boku no uta o mazete
もうどうかしたいと思うくせに僕はどうもしないままで	mou douka shitai to omou kuse ni boku wa doumo shinai mama de

あぁあ	aa

灯籠の咲く星の海に心臓を投げたのだ	tourou no saku hoshi no umi ni shinzou o nageta no da
もう声も出ないから死んだふりなんてどうもなかったのに	mou koe mo denai kara shinda furi nante dou mo nakatta no ni
僕もきっとこうで良かったのに	boku mo kitto kou de yokatta no ni
君がずっと遠く笑ったのだ	kimi ga zutto tooku waratta no da
