Yuurei

What’s coming next is nothing much
Even if it’s just an epilogue
That’s fine, that’s fine, you know
I just want to talk

No one’s memories will remain
Like a bad movie
It’s too late, it’s too late, I know
But I’m still writing the sequel

The important things are hard to say
And my heart aches without a laugh
But it’s probably just in my head

So I’ve lived in silence
You held my hand
Like a gardenia

Hey

What do you want to say?
There’s nothing I want to share
Half-transparent, I’m a ghost
I’ll surely fade away unnoticed
So please, don’t let me go
Just keep looking at me

Next to you, there’s only a limited
Number of seats available
Maybe just enough for one or two
I sat down a bit away

The life you don’t give me
I skipped over
It’s like doodles in a boring magazine

Is it better not to know?
Happiness leaves a lingering taste
In my mouth

Why?

By chance, I found it lying there
The tomorrow I’ve been searching for
I’m a ghost with no way out
Floating in a familiar emptiness
Like that spider web, please forget

I just want to see the same scenery
I just want to feel
Everything you felt

I have nothing to say
But there’s nothing I want to share
With a voice that can’t reach, I’m a ghost
It’s not something I should say
But that light, maybe
I liked you

What do you want to say?
There’s nothing I want to share
Half-transparent, I’m a ghost
I’ll surely fade away unnoticed

So please, don’t let me go
Just keep looking at me

Let me stay at the end of these memories
That I might forget suddenly.
