Description
It was as if someone had opened a box containing the most hidden memories - and they turned out to be not words, but colors. The red drops were not drama for show, but a quiet testimony to pain that was not meant for anyone. The blue ones are like deep water, in which feelings freeze to turn into stone, into a precious stone, just so as not to hurt.
The song sounds like a whisper, which at first seems like a confession, and then like a spell: hide the ugly, endure, wait for the moment when the wound ceases to be a wound. And in this silence, unexpected beauty suddenly emerges - as fragile and real as the glisten of salt on cheeks.
Lyrics and translation
Original
抱きしめられた記憶から流れ出た赤い 雫。 人様に見せるものじゃないの。
伝えなかった言霊がもう一つの私になって。
体 の内側で何かを叫んでる。
ああ欲しかったの に。 悔しかったのに。 ダメだよ。
全部隠し ておくの。 ごめんね。
悲しいのは一人で 十分だからと。
これ以上醜くなりたくないのと。
私の中 で誰にも見つけられずに。
こんな色になるまで泣いていたんだね。
綺麗 よ。
私そびれた心から流れ出た青い 雫。 人様に浴びせるものじゃないの。
余 すところなく飲み込んで。
遠くの海の底に沈ん で。
そのまま宝石にでもなれるのを待つわ。 Oh。
本当を嘘で飾って。
ごっこみたいな暮らしで慰めて。
誰かの悲劇で自分の 悲劇を癒して。
恋しさに溺れた瞬間のままで。
息もできずただ愛してるの。
悲しいのは一人で十分だからと。
これ 以上醜くなりたくないのと。
私の 中で誰にも見つけられずに。
こんな色になるまで泣いていたんだね。
綺麗 よ。
ごめんね。
ねえ、綺麗よ。
English translation
Red drops flowed from the memory of being embraced. It's not something to show people.
The words I didn't share became another me.
Something is screaming inside my body.
Oh, I wanted it. I was so frustrated. No.
Hide everything. Sorry.
I'm sad because being alone is enough.
I don't want it to get any uglier.
Inside me, no one can find it.
You cried until you turned this color.
It's beautiful.
Blue drops flowed from my lonely heart. It's not something you should shower on people.
Swallow it completely.
Sinking to the bottom of the ocean far away.
I'll wait until it turns into a jewel. Oh.
Decorating the truth with a lie.
Comfort me by living like a pretend life.
Heal your own tragedy with someone else's tragedy.
Just like the moment I drowned in love.
I can't breathe, I just love you.
It's sad because one person is enough.
I don't want it to get any more ugly.
Inside me, no one can find it.
You cried until you turned this color.
It's beautiful.
Sorry.
Hey, it's beautiful.
