おっとりガールの憂鬱 (Ottori gaaru no yuuutsu) – Quiet girl’s melancholy
from Tokei jikake no unit-tachi vol.1 single.
——
“Stars, hey, please answer me. Am I good enough?”
Joining the stars with lines into constellations, I search for an answer
“The stars in the nightsky say “We don’t know”. Sigh…”
“I guess I really need to buck up a little”, the quiet girl promises
Though I can never become a cheeky girl, I really long to be that way
With a “sorry”, I pluck one flower from the field
Plucking the petals, I try to predict my tomorrow
“I’ll do it! Can’t do it… I’ll do it! Can’t do it… I’ll do it! Can’t do it…
Hmm~ One more time! Sorry”
I try to work hard, but it doesn’t look like I’m trying…
That’s the quiet girl’s Fatum, I really do understand, but…
“Hmm~ Why?
Hmm~ Why?
Hmm~ Is that it?
Hey, all the stars sparkling in the nightsky, give me an answer”
“I guess I really need to buck up a little”, the quiet girl promises
Though I can never become a cheeky girl, I really long to be that way
I dream that someday, someone will notice that I am working hard
And then, I shut the window for the night and whisper “goodnight”
