Lyrics

Game Size

　Rain　過ぎた朝の気紛れな感傷
　憂い　いつの間にか慣れ始めていることに
　一粒　ひとつ　リングが揺れる
　塞いだ傷跡疼く

　窓にしがみつく雫が落ちていく
　時の流れはそっと
　深く深くゆるやかに沈んでいく

Long Version

　Rain　浅い眠り　遠くなる感情
　Stay　いまはここで　微かに揺れる言の葉
　一粒　ひとつ　身体に受けて
　痛みを緑に変えていくよ

　Rain　過ぎた朝の気紛れな感傷
　憂い　いつの間にか慣れ始めていることに
　一粒　ひとつ　リングが揺れる
　塞いだ傷跡疼く

　窓にしがみつく雫が落ちていく
　時の流れはそっと
　深く深くゆるやかに沈んでいく


　　絡んだままのビーズの糸はいつか解け
　　床に散らばる　微かな音たて
　　静かに響いた…

　こぼれ落ちる砂　ゆるやかに積もって
　流れた時の重さ　静かに受け止める

　しがみついた雫　ひとつに重なって
　織り成すリングさえも
　そっとそっと穏やかに消えていくよ
