私の終わりは誕生日 / My End Is My Birthday

V6

[Intro] (la…la…la) [Verse 1] カレンダーに残った赤い丸 (The red circle left on my calendar) あと少しで また歳をとる (In just a little while, I’ll grow another year older) 昔の写真をめくるたび (Whenever I turn the pages of old photographs) 知らない私が増えてゆく (ah) (I find more versions of me I barely know) (ah) 片づけ途中の部屋の中 (In a room still halfway through being cleaned) 「また来年」に 笑ってうなずいた (I smiled and nodded at “see you next year”) [Pre-Chorus] 生まれた日のことは知らない (I don’t know anything about the day I was born) 終わる日くらい 覚えていたい (But I want to remember the day I leave) [Chorus] 私の終わりは 誕生日  (My ending is my birthday) (birthday…) 生まれた日に 終わるのなら (If I were to end on the day I was born) 最初と最後を結ぶように (As if tying my beginning and end together) 同じ言葉で祝ってほしい (I want you to celebrate me with the same words) 消したろうそくから白い煙 (White smoke rises from the candle I blew out) その向こうに 朝が見えた (Beyond it, I could see the morning) [Verse 2] 零時を知らせる画面には (On the screen that tells me it’s midnight) 「おめでとう」が並んでる (“Happy birthday” messages are lined up) 返事を書いて また消して (I write a reply, then erase it again) 結局ひとつも送れない (In the end, I can’t send a single one) 残したケーキを眺めながら (While staring at the cake I left behind) いつもの夜が やけに綺麗だった (The usual night looked strangely beautiful) [Pre-Chorus] あと何回なんて数えたら (When I started counting how many times were left) 少し怖くなったから (It began to scare me a little) 今夜だけは 数えないでいよう (So just tonight, I won’t count) [Final Chorus] 私の終わりは 誕生日  (My ending is my birthday) (birthday…) 生まれた日に 終わるのなら (If I were to end on the day I was born) 最初と最後を結ぶように (As if tying my beginning and end together) 同じ言葉で祝ってほしい (I want you to celebrate me with the same words) 「おめでとう」って笑う声を (The voice that smiles and says “happy birthday”) 最後までちゃんと聞いていたい (I want to hear it clearly until the very end) 消したろうそくから白い煙 (White smoke rises from the candle I blew out) 窓の向こうが (Beyond the window) 白んでゆく (The sky slowly turns pale) [Outro]
