Shadow Swing

ーーThe English lyrics are written below the Japanese lyricsーー [Intro] 息を止めて呼吸を数える　 消えたい思いが胸を打つ [Verse 1] 迷惑かけたくない ただそれだけ Jump or fall or tie the rope instead Shadows laugh, cling, whisper close [Pre Chorus] 冷たい返答 封筒の紙 無言の会釈 わずかな摩擦 救いでも罰でもなく まだ切れない糸 [Chorus] On the night I swore I’d disappear 君の声が針のように刺さる 痛みと共鳴し胸を叩く 名もなき喪失 胸に抱いて [Verse 2] 犠牲の幻想 ニュースの断片 無数の声に耳を澄ませる But footprints fading in the sand remain それさえも生きた証 [Pre Chorus] 凍える手のひら 見知らぬ手が掴む まだ暖かさを感じる自分がいる A warmth I thought I'd lost [Chorus] On the night I swore I’d disappear 雨粒みたいに灯りが落ちる 濡れた心は乾いていく 名もなき幻影 胸に抱いて [Bridge] 壊れかけの声 歪んだリズム 「生きたい」と喉が勝手に叫ぶ I’m still breathing… I will keep breathing… [Final Chorus] On the night I swore I’d disappear ひと滴の夢を喉に流した 迷惑の先で優しさが滲む 名もなき希望 胸に抱いて [Fade out] Footsteps fading in the static air Is it ruin, or repair? The answer’s left unheard… ーーーーーEnglishーーーーー [Intro] Holding my breath, counting every sigh The thought of disappearing pounds inside my chest [Verse 1] I don’t want to be a burden That’s all it ever was Jump or fall or tie the rope instead Shadows laugh, cling, whisper close [Pre Chorus] Cold replies, the paper of a sealed letter Silent nods, the friction of passing by Neither salvation nor punishment Still the thread refuses to break [Chorus] On the night I swore I’d disappear Your voice pierced me like a needle Resonating with the pain, it strikes my chest An unnamed loss I hold inside my heart [Verse 2] Illusions of sacrifice, fragments on the news I tune in to countless voices But footprints fading in the sand remain Even that is proof that I was alive [Pre Chorus] Frozen palms, a stranger’s hand takes mine And I still feel warmth I thought was gone A warmth I thought I'd lost [Chorus] On the night I swore I’d disappear Lights fall down like raindrops in the dark My drenched heart slowly dries An unnamed phantom I hold inside my heart [Bridge] A breaking voice, a rhythm out of shape “My will to live” screams out from my throat I’m still breathing… I will keep breathing… [Final Chorus] On the night I swore I’d disappear I swallowed down a single drop of dream Beyond the burden, kindness begins to bleed through An unnamed hope I hold inside my heart [Fade out] Footsteps fading in the static air Is it ruin, or repair? The answer’s left unheard…
