混ざり合うもの (Mazari au mono) – Mixture
from Kimi wa melody single.
——
It doesn’t matter how beautiful two colors are
Once they are mixed together, they become dirty
I turned my back in obstinance
Putting up a barrier that said I didn’t need friends
I can survive on my own
I want to become strong
Looking out the window, I sighed
Before I knew it, I could no longer hear the voices around me
Yes, I’ve found a world all of my own, but…
Why did you
Suddenly appear?
As if you exist here
Just to melt my heart?
I begin to accept other’s colors which I had rejected
I’ve never seen this, never felt this before
This mixture that is you and me
Someone whispering quietly into another’s ear
And pointing at me, I’d grown used to that
Colors that are different from mine
I exclude them all and become one
Hey, what are friends?
People who keep a measured distance
And gather, pretending to share the same color?
If I had to gloss over that to get close to others
Then I’d decided to just live with loneliness
Why did you still
Come and talk to me?
I’ve already forgotten the words
“I’ll help you remember love”
You say nonchalantly, like a wind I’m unable to resist
It has crept into my heart
A mixture that is the only one
Why did you
Suddenly appear?
As if you exist here
Just to melt my heart?
I begin to accept other’s colors which I had rejected
I’ve never seen this, never felt this before
This mixture that is you and me

KANJI
どんなにキレイな色と色も
一緒に混ざってしまえば汚くなる
頑なに僕は背を向けて
友達はいらないとバリアを張っていた
一人だって生きて行けるよ
強くなりたいんだと
窓の外見て息をしてた
いつしかまわりの声なんて聴こえないくらい
そう 僕だけのその世界 見つけたのに…
なぜ君は突然
現れたのだろう?
僕の心に溶け込むように
ここに存在するんだ?
拒絶してた他人の色まで受け入れてる
見たことのない 感じたことない
君と僕とが混ざり合うもの
誰かがこっそり耳打ちして
ふいに指差されることに慣れてしまった
自分とは違うその色を
人は皆 排除して一つになるんだ
友達とはねえ何だろう?
同じ色のフリをして
距離を測って群れることか?
何かを取り繕って近づくくらいならば
もう孤独と暮らそうって決めたんだ
なぜ君はそれでも
話し掛けて来たの?
僕は言葉も忘れてたのに
愛を思い出させるよ
さりげなくて抵抗できない風のように
心の中に忍び込んで来た
たった一つの混ざり合うもの
なぜ君は突然
現れたのだろう?
僕の心に溶け込むように
ここに存在するんだ?
拒絶してた他人の色まで受け入れてる
見たことのない 感じたことない
君と僕とが混ざり合うもの
