こわがりのくせに飛びたがり 片目あけたままで 今日も スリーパー 冬眠中のフリして続けさせて 甘い夢に 独り遊ぶわ 唐突に響く チャイムに打たれて あわて駆けよるドア 開いたら Ping×Pong×Dash ＝ だれもそこには居ないわ はぐらかされたかしら タイミング 遠い笑い声で気付いた冷たさ あしゆび はだしのまま 空が眩しい。ついてけない。 でも 泣かないで the Sleeper in my mind 負けないで the Sleeper in my mind
English
I'm scared of the habit of wanting to fly, With one eye open, today I'm a sleeper Pretending to hibernate, I continue Having sweet dreams of playing alone Out of the blue, the chime struck And as I opened the door, I muttered in panic Ping x Pong x Dash = no, I'm not in the mood I wonder if I evaded - timing! I noticed the iciness in some distant laughter, And left my toes barefoot The sky is bright. But it's not about that. But I won't cry for the Sleeper in my mind It's second to none, the Sleeper in my mind! |
Long Version
Japanese
こわがりのくせに飛びたがり 片目あけたままで 今日も スリーパー 冬眠中のフリして続けさせて 甘い夢に 独り遊ぶわ 唐突に響く チャイムに打たれて あわて駆けよるドア 開いたら Ping×Pong×Dash ＝ だれも そこには居ないわ はぐらかされたかしら タイミング 遠い笑い声で気付いた冷たさ あしゆび はだしのまま 空が眩しい。 ついてけない。 でも 泣かないで the Sleeper in my mind 凹みやすいけど 知りたがり コイゴコロ 毛布にくるむ スリーパー ちょっと辛い なのに性懲りもなく 苦いコトバ 巻き戻し中 足りないパーツを 確かめあえたら いちどくらい『好き』って 言いに行こう Ping×Pong×Dash ＝ だけど お部屋は からっぽ 入れちがい かなしいわ タイミング 消えちゃう間際に 見つかる失せ物 満たされていたのにね 風が優しい。 ついてけない。 ねぇ 泣いてるの？ the Sleeper in my love ゆすっても 起きない かたくまるまって 本当は もう ずうっと 起きてるの 唐突に響く チャイムに打たれて あわて駆けよるドア 開いたら Ping×Pong×Dash ＝ だれも そこには居ないわ はぐらかされたかしら タイミング 遠い笑い声で気付いた冷たさ あしゆび はだしのまま 空が眩しい。 ついてけない。 でも 泣かないで the Sleeper in my mind ∴負けないで the Sleeper in my mind |
