ワガママ (Wagamama) – Selfish

——

The words I spoke to you that day
I should have kept them hidden within me
I won’t lie, won’t give excuses
Snow melting on my cheeks
Though I don’t desire days with no answer
I turn my back on the reason for my tears
Why is it that I’m searching only for smiles
So much more now as compared to the past?

Unchanging emotions and changing scenery
If I had voiced my last selfish demand that day
You would be perplexed over the answer, right?
Future, don’t overlap now

The winter-colored shoes you gave me
Bring color beautifully to me again this year
Lining up proof that I’m alright, I walk
As the snow soaks in
Where are you now? It’s alright not to contact me?
I want to know, I’m free to find out
But the words I failed to speak
Won’t disappear into the nightsky

Stopped emotions and unstoppable time
I kept my last selfish demand a secret
Because you are someone who won’t lie
So kindness rips us apart

Don’t answer, I just want to tell you
I don’t need anything more
But humans are surely needy creatures
And I’ll want you more and more

Unchanging emotions pile up on the scenery
Though I wanted to voice a small selfish demand now
You just quietly embrace me
As if embracing me, right by your side

Embracing me

Will I make it to your smile?
The falling snow is like sand in an hourglass
Two years ago, I’d dashed out from the train station just like this
The lovers passing me by
Light up the decorated city, but
We’ll be the happiest couple in this world
Hey, give me more
Your habits and everything else
Are gifts to me
I want (to always) keep them to myself

I try to tell you that “I may be late” (I’ll wait)
Your messages open doors
I want to be the only one
With that key to unlock your feelings
The illuminations in this winter city (are beautiful)
The promise we made to go see them today together
Disappear with a sigh
And you are in my heart
Hey, give me more
Your habits and everything else
Are gifts to me
I want to always keep them to myself

When I embrace you, you say “I won’t forgive you”
When I haven’t even said “I’m sorry”
I’m defeated by your innocent smile
So I’ll embrace you more
Hey, I’ll always be by your side
And warm your heart
Hey, show me more dreams
I want to make them all come true
My gift to you
I wish (you will always) keep them to yourself
Hey, more
I want (to always) keep them to myself
