チキンLINE (Chikin LINE) – Chicken LINE
——
Even though I waited for you
On the congested train platform
Why didn’t you come in the end?
On the windswept bench
“There’s something I want to tell you”
A message that makes me think too much
The usual scheduled train
It’s already passed on
You said we’d head back together
The misdirected anticipation
But I was the overeager one
With a cancelled reaction…
Suddenly, a delivered stamp saying I LOVE YOU! (I LOVE YOU!)
You must be near, but won’t come forward
You’re a coward
Not via LINE
Say it while looking me in the eye!
If you truly love me
Then meet me and confess it straight!
I don’t want to read it
I want to hear your voice
You want to test my sincerity…
But if you just send words, I’ll ignore the message
“Together” or “not together”?
On the ambiguous boundary
Reality is lost
The one who insists will win, right?
Do you want me to say
“I love you too”? You must be joking
Even so, I waited for you
As if you’d suddenly, finally come
Unable to head back home
I continued to believe in love
Betrayed by delusions
Your tension has dropped
Suddenly, my phone rings with Your NAME (Your NAME)
Instead of calling, come over here
You just won’t take a risk, huh?
Show me your face
And tell me clearly
To be rejected by a girl
Shouldn’t be that embarrassing for a man
If you want guarantees
Then it won’t become love
Our hearts are throbbing, but even if
Romance comes knocking, love will ignore us
Look me in the eye
Fair and square
And as your stomach knots up
I’ll immediately answer YES or NO
Not via LINE
Not via LINE
Say it while looking me in the eye!
If you truly love me
Then meet me and confess it straight!
I don’t want to read it
I want to hear your voice
You want to test my sincerity…
But if you just send words, I’ll ignore the message
