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
