Some things come and go between us that we can’t talk about; that’s why what we suddenly see or hear in this mundane daily life appeals to us as if it’s trying to point out something that can never be expressed.
I may be searching for the “true names” of the events I know and translating them into music. But, perhaps, the “true names” may be spelled out by the music in the first place.
(I can't hear your voice only)
(I don't know)
(It's something I don't need to know)
(All you do is always right)
(And I've always been saved by that)
(So,)
In this cruelly shredded world
I suddenly got lost talking
Chances are always swallowed by the outlines
The pains I couldn't notice 'til now
Revived my sense
Maybe everything's buried
In the broken stained glasses
We've been tracing someone's bloodstains
And then trying to remember the forgotten promise
God, I didn't know well…
Just kidding.
I can't hear your voice only
I don't know
It's something I don't need to know
All you do is always right
And I've always been saved by that
So, I don't need to know
'Cause I'll name you
In this cruelly shredded world
Oh, even if I arrive somewhere,
Nothing will change
Just living for myself
But it only makes it painful for me
It is your fault.
If I've known more about human beings,
I will die anymore.
Maybe I was only seeing
What you see before you
But should I have seen your eyes well
Even so I came from Always
Without waiting for all
Leave a moment as letting me pass away.
I can't hear your voice only
I don't know
It's something I don't need to know
All you do is always right
And I've always been saved by that
So, I don't need to know
'Cause I'll name you.
Maybe I can't stay here anymore
'Cause I ne'er wanted to say
The moment is dragged into those days
Tell me, since when've you been there?
Though I'm being killed by you
You'll rip me to pieces,
I'll name you.
