I don’t know… what do you think?
I guess I’m not saying what I really think
What if I did?
I don’t wanna be rejected
Well, I guess I reject you all the time
So what am I saying?
What if we pretend that one of us will die tomorrow?
Or that we’re strangers
Would that change things?

Your back faces me after you say good night
Seeing it, I remember the animals at the zoo
How many years has it been since we began sharing meals and a bed?
It’s an issue we really shouldn’t touch

The things I do to comfort myself
Are growing more and more by the day
If those dancing are fools, and those watching are fools too
Why not at least dance every once in a while?*

It’s not good to have too much of it
But I’m not sure how good having zero is, either
I mean, you need the things you need
And I need just enough to get through today, some…
…Pride

But I’m too proud
Too proud

Though there’s someone by my side
Instead, I want to just be touched
By the gaze of an unknown stranger

Yo .. She don’t love me like the way she used to love me, whoa
It’s like I get too close and she refuse to hug me, oh
Look, she ain’t really affectionate
She just wants some time alone
Why you deleting all your message?
What you hiding on your phone?
No, I don’t trust your honesty
Love is cursed by monogamy
Don’t keep swiping right
You might see something you won’t wanna see
It’s okay to say that you needed your own space
If I give you that green light
There’s no excuses for breaks
But wait, one thing I gotta say
I’m so done by the games
See you changed, I can see it in your face
You’re so set up in your ways
See, it’s strange
How I gotta take the blame
When I’m the one that’s in the rain
Yo, all these tears keep falling on me
No more late night calling on me, no
I hope you see how hard it is without me
Coz we gon have to learn to set new boundaries
I fell into your tears and let it drown me
Coz I’m too proud to be too proud
I say it proudly

Pride, pride
But I’m too proud
Too proud

I don’t know… what do you think?
I guess I’m not really saying what I think
What if I did?
I don’t wanna be rejected
Well, I guess I reject you all the time…
So what am I saying?
What if we… pretend that one of us will die tomorrow?
Or that we’re strangers
Would that change things?

The back that is turned to me after “good night”
Reminds me of animals at the zoo
How many years has it been since we moved in together?
An issue that goes untouched

Alas, my techniques
In satisfying myself improve day by day
“The fool that dances and the fool that watches”
Might as well be the dancing fool sometimes

Having too much of it is problematic
But so is not having any
One needs what one needs
Just enough of it to make it through the day
Pride

But I’m too proud
Too proud

A stranger’s gaze excites me
More than that of the one closest to me
I just want to be touched
I can tell my friends
But I can’t tell you
The priority has become avoiding arguments
Rationality and force of habit, all mixed up, uh, oh dear
A mother that complains about her husband to her child
From the viewpoint of the child:
It’s more comfortable being around strangers than being with family
“A man and a woman are at their best at the moment they meet,”
Beat Takeshi said in an interview
I read on the internet
We changed each other
Our once opened hearts close shut
And we cut
Cut
And sleep next to someone else just to see what it would feel like
I loved you
We both tried and gave it our all
But in the end it’s pride
We can’t go back to being friends

Pride, pride

But I’m too proud
Too proud

I don’t know…　what do you think？
I guess I’m not saying what I really think
What if I did？
I don’t wanna be rejected
Well, I guess I reject you all the time
So what am I saying？
What if we pretend that one of us will die tomorrow？
Or that we’re strangers
Would that change things？

「おやすみ」のあと向けられる背を
見て思い出す動物園の動物
寝食を共にし始めて何年
触れられない案件

己を慰める術の
日に日に増していくことよ
踊る阿呆に見る阿呆
たまには踊らにゃ損損

あり過ぎても良くないけど
まるっきし無いのもどうなの
必要なものは必要
今日を乗り切る為だけの
プライド

But I’m too proud
Too proud

側に居る人よりも
知らない人の視線
触れられたいだけ

Yo　..　She don’t love me like the way she used to love me, whoa
It’s like I get too close and she refuse to hug me, oh
Look, she ain’t really affectionate
She just wants some time alone

プライド、プライド
But I’m too proud
Too proud
