I passed the days lining up excuses
For my emotions that burst like bubbles

The lights in this city know nothing of conflict
I lied, saying you were the only one

I dance, still not wanting to believe it
I keep lining up the words in an attempt to show it

Can you not see me? Can you not hear this voice of mine?
Dancer in the dark
I’m sure even my silhouette is transparent, its form misshapen
But
At least I can scream until my voice gives out
Even as I cling to it desperately, it will be my proof
See? I’m just like a ghost

All this time I’ve resented the brightness
While my shadow kept growing, as if trying to tell me something

Then a single phrase you made in passing
Made me want to cry

The things I wish to hold dear are spilling out
Words I wish I could write down just as they appear

Can you not see me? Can you not hear this voice of mine?
Dancer in the dark
I’m sure even my silhouette is transparent, its form misshapen, but
That’s why I’ll keep screaming and struggling
Running barefoot all the way. So notice me already!
Give me your answer!

Don’t make a fool of this heart…

The gray city laughs scornfully
My steps grow heavier
I strain my voice
Screaming, struggling
Running barefoot, on and on
To keep from changing, to keep from giving up
Simply writing down word after word

Can you not see me? Can you not hear this voice of mine?
Dancer in the dark
I’m sure even my silhouette is transparent, its form misshapen
But
At least I can scream until my voice gives out
Even as I cling to it desperately, it will be my proof
See? I’m just like a ghost

パッと弾けた感情に
言い訳を並べて過ごした

葛藤も知らない街明かり
君だけだって嘘をついた

信じたくもないままで踊っている
示すために連ね続けた言葉

見えないの僕が　僕のこの声が聞こえてる？
Dancer in the dark
シルエットすらも透明できっと不格好だけれど
でも
せめて声を枯らそう
必死に縋ってもずっと証明を
ねえゴーストみたいだ

散々恨んだ明るさと
意味有りげに伸びていく影

淡々と過ぎた一粒の
君の言葉で泣きたくなった

大切にしたいものが零れていく
示すままに綴り続けたい言葉

見えてるの僕が　僕のこの声が届いてる？
Dancer in the dark
シルエットすらも透明できっと不格好だけれどでも
だから叫んで　足掻いて
裸足のまま走って　ねえ気付いて
教えてよ　答えは

こんな僕の心まで馬鹿にしないで

灰色の街が嗤ってる
足取りも重くなる
声を枯らして
叫んで足掻いて
裸足で走り続けて
変わらないように諦めないように
連ね綴るだけだ

見つけてよ僕を　僕のこの声が聞こえてる？
Dancer in the dark
シルエットすらも透明できっと不格好だけれど
でも
せめて声を　枯らそう
必死に縋っても　ずっと証明を
ねえゴーストみたいだ
