BUMP OF CHICKEN - 「Answer」

魔法の言葉　覚えている　虹の始まったところ あの時世界の全てに　一瞬で色が付いた

i still remember those magic words, still remember where that rainbow began it was the moment my whole world burst into color

転ばないように気を付けて　でもどこまでもいかなきゃ 陽射しさえ掴めそうな手が　ひどく冷たかったから

i went on carefully, trying not to stumble but i still had so long to go 'cause even though it felt like my hands could've grabbed hold of the sunlight itself they were cold instead. so terribly cold

本当の声はいつだって　正しい道を照らしている なんだって疑っているから　とても強く信じている

my inner voice always shows me where i need to go it doubts everyone and everything. that's why i trust it so much

心臓が動いている事の　吸って吐いてが続く事の 心がずっと熱い事の　確かな理由を 雲の向こうの銀河のように　どっかで無くした切符のように 生まれる前の歴史のように　君が持っているから

that my heart continues to beat that i'm still here breathing that this gentle warmth has long thrummed through my chest there's a certain reason for it all and like a galaxy hidden behind the clouds like a ticket i'd lost somewhere like all the world's history before you were born you hold that reason within you

それだけ　わかっている (わかっている) 僕だけ　わかっている (わかっている)

that much i know (i know) i'm the only one who knows (the only one)

鈍く残った痛みとか　しまってしまった思いとか 滲んだって消えないもので　街は出来ている

things like a dull pain that lingers, and thoughts you've shut away that's what home is made of - stuff that blurs over time but never truly fades away

魔法の言葉　覚えている　虹の辿り着いたところ 転ばないように気を付けて　でもどこまでもいけるよ

i still remember those magic words, still remember where that rainbow touched down i go on carefully, making sure i don't stumble but i can make it. i know i can

無くしたくないものを　見つけたんだって気付いたら こんなに嬉しくなって　こんなに怖くなるなんて

whenever i realize i've found something i don't want to lose what words can describe how happy it makes me feel? how scared?

想像つかない昨日を越えて　その延長の明日を抱えて 小さな肩　震える今　それでも笑った 迷路の奥のダイヤのような　届かなかった風船のような 気付けなかった流星のような　涙を貰った

overcoming a yesterday i never could've dreamed of holding onto a tomorrow that seemed like it'd never end those small shoulders, they tremble now, but still i smiled and i cried those tears were like a diamond at the center of a maze like a balloon floating by just out of reach like a shooting star i'd never noticed

だからもう　忘れない (忘れない) 二度ともう　迷わない (迷わない)

and that's why i'll never forget (i'll never forget) that's why i'll never lose my way again (never again)

心臓が動いている事の　吸って吐いてが続く事の 心がずっと熱い事の　確かな理由が

that my heart continues to beat that i'm still here breathing that this gentle warmth has long thrummed through my chest there's a certain reason for it all

砂漠の粒のひとつだろうと　消えていく雨のひとつだろうと 貰った　名も知らない花のように　今目の前にあるから

your reason could be a single grain of sand in the desert or a drop of rain in a fading storm it's like a flower you've been given whose name you don't know and i can see my reason right here before me now

それだけ　わかっている (わかっている) 僕だけ　わかっている (わかっている)

that much i know (i know) i'm the only one who knows (the only one)

だからもう　離れない (離れない) 二度ともう　迷わない (迷わない)

and that's why i won't let go (i won't let go) that's why i'll never lose my way again (never again)

#song tl #my tl #bump of chicken #them #lilia's pov #waaah i just think this song perfectly encapsulates how much silver changed lilia's life #and how the almost 700 years of heartache and pain he went through were all worth it just so he could find that lonely little baby #and i also love the song's message about how we all have our own reasons for living #for some of us our reason is a person and for others its their profession or even just their favorite book or show #and no matter how big or how small our reason is its something that is precious to us and should be treasured #no matter what anyone else may think
