Original Lyrics: Tori to Tori / Bird Cage Lyrics (Romanized)
Translated Title:
Two Birds / Bird Cage

Riding at the speed of wind, descending that hill on third street,
Where the smell of flowers is strong enough to make anyone choke;
Fooling around while shouting a song of light-filled summer:
I was watching everything you did from my window,
Cursing my body all the while.


Back then,
In that secret place behind the cinema,
That was popular with the young boys,
You were making pacts of blood,
Where almost anything could happen –
It’s because you didn’t know anything that you were capable of everything.


“Even if the adults look displeased, you never seem to care,”
I whispered, closing the window.
I had my own secrets too;
Every night, I was becoming you inside my dreams.


Then I met you there, when I was dragged to church on the weekend.
I was sulking, averting my eyes.
You found me right away,
And at a speed typical of young boys, we were laughing, becoming friends –
Light had broken through.


From here on out, we’ll be the one in the same… that’s what I thought, but it wasn’t true.
It was only for that day… only that one time.
I’d merely met eyes with a bird peering into my bird cage….
… and I stopped dreaming.


I’ve somehow become an adult, and finally started being able to dream again:
From inside this bird cage, I say goodbye to you.
I say goodbye to you, again and again.
I say goodbye to you… I say goodbye to you…
My eternal dream. My eternal shadow.

自転車に乗って風のはやさで
むせ返るくらい花の香る 3番通りの坂を下っていく
輝きにみちた夏の歌を 叫びながら馬鹿をやっている
そんな君を窓からみていた
身体を呪いながら


あの頃
そんな少年達のあいだで流行っていたシネマの裏にある
秘密の場所では
血の誓いを結びあったりさ
どうなってもおかしくないこと
知らないから なんでもできたんだ


「そう いつだって 大人たちが不安がっても 知りもしないで」
そう呟いて窓を閉じた
秘密なら僕も持ってたよ
毎晩 夢のなかで君になっていた


そして僕が君に会ったのは 週末つれられてく教会
ふてくされ よそみをしていた
君は僕をすぐに見つけてさ
少年同士らしいはやさで 笑いあって友達になっていた
光が射していた


もういつだって君とおなじ そう思ってた でもそうじゃなくて
あの日だけ それっきりだった
鳥かごを覗いた鳥と眼があっただけだ
夢もみなくなって


なんとか大人になれた僕は 今さらみるようになったんだ
鳥かごの中から君に さよならを言う
さよならを言う 何度も
さよならを言う さよならを言う
永遠の夢 永遠の影
