ぼくの憂鬱と不機嫌な彼女 (Boku no yuuutsu to fukigen na kanojo) – My melancholy and my sullen girlfriend
from Boku no yuuutsu to fukigen na kanojo single + AAA 10th ANNIVERSARY BEST album.
——
Overflowing time just
Carries us along as we ride on
Those smiles in that photo
Didn’t know that such a day would come
When did we start
Arguing over the smallest things?
Consideration, kindness,
Warmth, leaving it all behind
My melancholy and my sullen girlfriend
It’s none of our faults
We’ve just been together for too long
Can’t go back… I know that, but
This frustrating timidity
Makes this selfish me
Unable to let you go yet
We talk, but are inattentive
With panicky, fake smiles
The moment I turned my back
You let out another sigh
What I can give to you
Is surely only one thing
Not happiness
Nor promises
The answer is freedom
Words like “I really like you” or “I love you”
Those precious echoes
Turn into colorless words
In exchange, hidden words
A goodbye that can’t be said
When you wake tomorrow morning
I’ll leave it there
In contrast to the still-warm bed
A chilled heartbeat devoid of warmth dangles from my heart
If I had done that at that time, on that day
Memories are jokers that change into regret
I’ll get out of your keycase and your heart’s space
You go your way
My melancholy and my sullen girlfriend
Inside your heart
There is someone whom I don’t know
Even if I give up, saying “it can’t be helped…”
The welling tears of regret
Won’t stop
My melancholy and my sullen girlfriend
Soon, everything
Will change into petals of memories
The wind flowing through the open door
Will take it all away, scattering it
Vividly…
This is the
Shape of my love
