Torikago -in this cage-

Far away, a bird waits for you
Folding its wings, it stands still, not flying anywhere
The days that became vague inside the rusty cage
Shine with beautiful colors as they fade
Someone, please
Please deliver my voice
To that sky, to that gap in the clouds
To the foot of where you sleep

The distance to heaven
The distance from my heart
Raising a cry
The quiet closed sky starts to open its mouth

The distance to heaven
The distance to sky
Gentle rain falls
My faint wishes, clouded
Flow lazily

How long
Has time hidden me?
Even a faint light remembers the pain
Someone, please
Please tear off my wings
If freedom is not a choice
I'd rather live without it

The distance to heaven
The distance from my heart
Engraved in my eyelids
Your figure melts into the pitch-black darkness

The distance to heaven
The distance to sky
Cold rain falls
As if wiping away
The warmth of my clenched palm

A closed birdcage
Decayed legs
Weaving the future
The falling black bird
A closed birdcage
Decayed legs
Thinking of you
The falling black bird
A closed birdcage
Closed legs
Weaving the future
The falling black bird

Why am I standing here alone?
Emotions torn apart
Where am I spending my life?
The commotion fading away in the water
Why am I standing here alone?
Sinking, I thought
Of that sky, that gap in the clouds
Your smile

The distance to heaven
The distance from my heart
Raising a cry
The quiet closed sky starts to open its mouth

The distance to heaven
The distance to sky
Gentle rain falls
My faint wishes, clouded
Flow lazily

The distance to heaven
The distance from my heart

The distance to heaven
The distance to sky
