足りないものばっかりずっと増えてくの
tarinai mono bakkari zutto fueteku no
Everything keeps falling a little short;
ほんのりつらいな。
honnori tsurai na.
it's just a tiny bit unbearable.
そのたびごと　「情けない」　じゃ済まされない、
sono tabi goto "nasakenai" ja sumasare nai,
I can't chalk it off with a simple: “Oh, woe is me” whenever I feel that way.
（もっと大袈裟に痛がろう…！）
(motto oogesa ni ita garou...!)
(Come on, make a bigger deal out of your pain…!)

その場凌ぎではだめなのに
sono ba shinogi dewa dame nano ni
I know it won't do to rely on this kind of stopgap measure,
止まらぬ衝動をうずかせて
tomaranu shoudou wo uzukasete
but I keep letting my uncontrollable urge get the better of me.
また地獄の連鎖に知らん顔 mata jigoku no rensa ni shirankao Thus I turn a blind eye to this chain of hell after hell,
ほんとの続きを考えないように…

trying not to think about what shall invariably come…

今になって、首をぎゅっと絞めてくる

It is only now that those tender memories
優しい思い出
yasashii omoide
are starting to wring my neck so painfully.
昇っただけ沈むは、お約束
nobotta dake shizumu wa, oyakusoku
What goes up must come down—that's our lot in life.
（待って。そういうの怖すぎる…！）
(matte. souyuu no kowa sugiru...!)
(Hold on. That'd be too scary…!)

あなたと一緒に笑い合う
anata to issho ni waraiau
As I lovingly nurture this vision of a future like a fairy tale,
おとぎの明日を可愛がる、
o togi no ashita wo kawaigaru,
with you and me, smiling together,
白々しく飛び交う痛み分け
shirajirashiku tobikau itamiwake
I must keep going these hurtful arguments that always end in a draw,
ほんとの終わりを長引かせるために、
honto no owari wo nagabikaseru tame ni,
just so I can delay the true end a little more.

いつまで

yet I still place all my trust in such an uncertain track.
物々しく　でしゃばる物思い
monomonoshiku deshabaru monoomoi
I'm plunged into these overly intrusive bouts of reverie,
繋げておきたい首の皮
tsunagete okitai kubi no kawa
though I just want to keep one last sliver of hope.

あたまがしびれて熱くなる
atama ga shibirete atsuku naru
My mind is growing feverish, as if intoxicated.
「あなたの電波に溶かされたい！」
"anata no denpa ni tokasaretai!"
“I want to become a part of you!”
たどたどしい足取り　帰リ道、
tadotadoshii ashidori kaeri michi
On the way back home, I dragged my heavy legs
あなたの優しさが嬉しかったんだ！！
anata no yasashi sa ga ureshikattan da!!
as I thought about how happy I was at your tenderness!!
