To Be Myself
In this sad existence where our hearts drift apart,
I’ve been letting out sighs.
But in this town that I see before me, I have to keep on living,
I can’t turn a blind eye to hurting others.
I try to look away from causing pain,
but when I speak with kindness, everyone gets hurt.
To be myself, I have to keep on fighting,
I need to understand what’s right,
before it sinks into my heart.
I’m swallowed by this town, easing my heart a little,
while I keep singing in this cold town’s wind.
At the edge of parting, I want to confirm with you once more,
I’ve been longing for you this much.
It’s not that anyone’s to blame,
but everyone’s just selfish.
Even if I act like we’re close, I keep hurting you.
I love you this much, but I can’t even tell you about tomorrow.
For you to be yourself, you have to keep on fighting,
You need to understand what’s right,
before it sinks into your heart.
You’re swallowed by this town, easing your heart a little,
while you keep singing in this cold town’s wind.
To be myself, I have to keep on fighting,
I need to understand what’s right,
before it sinks into my heart.
I’m swallowed by this town, easing my heart a little,
while I keep singing in this cold town’s wind.
