ハリネズミのジレンマ (Harinezumi no jirenma) – Hedgehog’s dilemma

from Marriage album.

——

I rushed to reach our meeting spot, you were a little late
I know it’ll never happen, but I doubt once again
As if following a series of disasters written on a notebook
The rain falls only around us, hurting each other

A gift of words to be whispered
If only I can give them to you

I’m a helpless hedgehog with so much love, but always
The words that come out before you are full of thorns, my dilemma

Alone on the train ride home, I’m swayed by regret
Somehow reaching my room, I fall onto the cold bed

Recalling your face when we parted makes me want to die
A dried wilted flower that would collapse with a touch

I’ve totally forgotten that one important phrase
You are not the one to blame

I’m a helpless hedgehog who always fails, but someday
If I can get a little closer to you, if I can say that I love you

I’m a helpless hedgehog who always fails, but someday
I want to embrace and kiss you, walk on together with hands held

I’m a helpless hedgehog with so much love, but always
The words that come out before you are full of thorns, my dilemma

LaLaLa……

Machi awase basho ni hayaku tsuite kimi wa chotto okurete
Zettai nai tte wakattete mata utagattari shite
Yabai koto kara junban ni nooto ni kaite naraberu you ni
Kizutsuke au futari no mawari dake amefuri

Kotoba no purezento sasayaku dake de ii
Chanto kimi ni ageraretara

Boku wa dousho mo nai harinezumi ippai aishiteru no ni itsumo
Kimi no mae ni deru to kotoba wa toge darake no jirenma

Kaeri no densha de hitori kiri ni natte koukai ni yusaburarete
Nantoka heya ni tadori tsuite tsumetai beddo ni taorete

Wakare giwa no kimi no kao omoi dasu to shinitaku naru
Poroporo ni kawaita hana sawaru to kuzuresou

Daiji na hitokoto wo sukkari wasureteru
Warui no wa kimi ja nainda

Boku wa dousho mo nai harinezumi shippai bakari da keredo itsuka
Kimi ni mou sukoshi chikazuketara daisuki tte ietara

Boku wa dousho mo nai harinezumi shippai bakari da keredo itsuka
Umaku dakishimete kisu shite te wo tsunaide arukitai

Boku wa dousho mo nai harinezumi ippai aishiteru no ni itsumo
Kimi no mae ni deru to kotoba wa toge darake no jirenma

待ち合わせ場所に早く着いて　キミはちょっと遅れて
ぜったいないってわかってて　また疑ったりして
ヤバいコトから順番に　ノートに書いて並べるように
傷つけあう二人の　まわりだけ雨降り

言葉のプレゼント　囁くだけでいい
ちゃんとキミにあげられたら

僕はどーしょもないハリネズミ　いっぱい愛してるのにいつも
キミの前に出ると言葉は　棘だらけのジレンマ

帰りの電車で一人きりになって　後悔に揺さぶられて
なんとか部屋に辿りついて　冷たいベッドに倒れて

別れ際のキミの顔　思い出すと死にたくなる
ポロポロに乾いた花　触ると崩れそう

大事なひと言を　すっかり忘れてる
悪いのはキミじゃないんだ

僕はどーしょもないハリネズミ　失敗ばかりだけれどいつか
キミにもう少し近づけたら　大好きって言えたら

僕はどーしょもないハリネズミ　失敗ばかりだけどいつか
うまく抱きしめてキスして　手をつないで歩きたい

僕はどーしょもないハリネズミ　いっぱい愛してるのにいつも
キミの前に出ると言葉は　棘だらけのジレンマ

LaLaLa……
