PALE REPETITION
Lyrics & Translation
Japanese
tsunaida te boku wo yobu koe hoho wo nade surinuketeiku
ima* to iu hi ga kizu wo oi kurikaesu
shiranai uchi ni netsu wo obite...
kanashimi mo yorokobi mo kioku sae nemuri ni tsuku
yasashikute azayaka na iro ao no merodii wo komoriuta ni
nani hitotsu hajimaranai de nani hitotsu owaranai mama
kinou* wo wasure kasunderu yume no naka
kaze ga ashita* wo yuriokoshita...
kanashimi to yorokobi ha hibikiau karada no oku
shinayaka ni nijimidasu iro ao no merodii wa komoriuta ni
kanashimi mo yorokobi mo kioku sae nemuri ni tsuku
yasashikute zankoku na iro ao no merodii wo komoriuta ni
English
A hand to hold, a voice calling me, touching my cheek and then slipping away
The day we call "today" only wounds us over and over
Without even knowing it, we've caught a fever
Sadness, happiness, even memories are all put to sleep
A gentle, vivid color - the blue melody in a lullaby
While nothing begins and nothing ends...
Yesterday is forgotten and fades away in our dreams
The wind stirs tomorrow awake...
Sadness, happiness, both resonate deep within me
A color quickly bleeding through - the blue melody in a lullaby
Sadness, happiness, even memories are all put to sleep
A gentle, cruel color - the blue melody in a lullaby
