[Instrumental Intro] [Verse 1] その笑顔いつ見ても素敵 でもわかってるよ That’s not for me In the texts, on the stage, face to face Every mask is in its place Is there a real one, or all just lies? I guess even you cannot define… [Chorus 1] Why not me こんなに近くにいるのに Why not me 君以外いらないのに Maybe I’m the lantern, but they’re the fire What you crave is heat and desire So that would not be me あんなに頑張ったのに 壊れるほど愛していたのに [Riff] [Verse 2] その笑顔いつ見ても無邪気 でもわかってるよ One day you'll leave me In the classroom, another country, our room A friend, a partner, what do you call me? Maybe I’m a candle in your night You only see me when you dim your light [Chorus 2] Why not me こんなに笑い合ったのに Why not me ずっと一緒にいたいのに Maybe I’m the NPC waiting in our town But your adventure must keep going on So that would not be me あんなにそばにいたのに あんなに好きだったのに [Instrumental solo] [Bridge] もしも私が泣いたら あなたは慰めてくれるかな? もしも私が消えたら あなたは妬いてくれるかな? [Chorus 3] Why not me もう聞き疲れたのに Why not me もう君じゃなくていい Maybe I’m a broken toy, they’re fancy dolls I’m not enough to keep you in my box So that will never be me Because you don’t even see me Because your freedom is all you need [Instrumental Outro] [End]
