ふたつの影 (Futatsu no kage) – Our shadows
from Anthology single.
——
Your voice spilling from the phone
Makes my heart sunny
I rub my eyes, feeling sleepy
“I’m ok” I say, basking in the night wind
Unable to step out
Yet exhausted from standing still
Will I stop again?
You’re so close to me
But you’re so so far away
Beginnings are scary, so I hesitate
Have our shadows merged a little?
Or have they grown apart?
Wondering about such days, I just can’t sleep
Your voice, cut off by darkness
Makes my heart rainy
Restraining my fruitless emotions
“I’m ok” I say, my face wet
Becoming honest
Wanting to breathe, so troubled
Will I go back again?
I can feel your gentleness
So vividly, but I’m anxious
Loss is scary, so I act strong
Will our shadows line up
Parallel one day?
Wondering about such days, I just can’t sleep
I love you so much, it’s so uncool
How do you see me?
You’re so close to me
But you’re so so far away
Beginnings are scary, so I hesitate
Have our shadows merged a little?
Or have they grown apart?
Such days will continue
