Yeah… I know what you’re gonna say… I keep my distance like it’s safer in the silence Every word I never say just builds another island Smilin’ on the surface, underneath it’s all collapsing If you saw the truth, I swear you’d never call it “happening” I learned early love’s a thing you gotta earn So I’m workin’ overtime but never feel the return Every time you get close, I’m already gone ‘Cause I know I’ll let you down if you hold on You say I’m enough, I don’t hear it that way You see something good, I just see decay You reach for my hand— I PULL AWAY! Kono kabe o tsukutta kowarenai tame ni Demo ima ja kore ga subete ni natte Kimi wa “sono mama de ii” to iu kedo Boku ni wa mada shinji rarenai Kimi o ukeiretara subete ushinau Dakara saki ni tozasu kokoro no doa Kore wa kowasa janai—unmei da to Kono naka de ikiru hou ga ii Yeah, selfless to a fault, that’s what you say But what’s the point of givin’ if I push it all away? Every “you deserve it” feels like pressure on my chest Like I gotta be perfection just to pass your test I don’t trust the good, it never stays long Every time I feel it, something goes wrong So I cut it off before it gets deep Better lonely than a promise I can’t keep You say I’m enough, I don’t believe Every word just makes it harder to breathe You try to stay— I MAKE YOU LEAVE! Kono kabe o tsukutta kowarenai tame ni Demo ima ja kore ga subete ni natte Kimi wa “sono mama de ii” to iu kedo Boku ni wa mada shinji rarenai Kimi o ukeiretara subete ushinau Dakara saki ni tozasu kokoro no doa Kore wa kowasa janai—unmei da to Kono naka de ikiru hou ga ii —safer—safer—safer— And blood black nothingness began to spin A system of cells interlinked within cells interlinked Within one stem, and dreadfully distinct Against the dark, a tall white fountain played What if I’m the reason everything breaks?! What if your love is just another mistake?! You say “let go”—I don’t know how! I built this prison—I’m trapped in it now! Kono kabe o tsukutta kowarenai tame ni Demo ima ja kore ga subete ni natte Kimi wa “sono mama de ii” to iu kedo Boku ni wa mada shinjirarenai Kimi o ukeiretara subete ushinau Dakara saki ni tozasu kokoro no doa Kore wa kowasa janai—unmei da to Kono naka de ikiru hou ga ii Kono kabe o tsukutta kowarenai tame ni Demo ima ja kore ga subete ni natte Kimi wa “sono mama de ii” to iu kedo Boku ni wa mada shinjirarenai Kimi o ukeiretara subete ushinau Dakara saki ni tozasu kokoro no doa Kore wa kowasa janai—unmei da to Kono naka de… Kono mama de ii to uso o tsuite Hitori no mama de kiesou de Sukuu koe mo todokanai nara Mou kono mama de ii…
