Suspended Animation (Kashika)

Suspended Animation (Kashika)

I want to breathe, crying out at birth
息が吸いたくて、産声を上げて
iki ga suitakute, ubugoe wo agete
Struggling to breathe, crying again
息ずらくなってまた泣いて嗚咽て
iki zuraku natte mata naite wameite
Wanting to live? Wanting to live?
生きたくって？生きたくって
ikitakutte? ikitakutte?
I don't understand, man, I
わけわかんないなぁ、僕は
wake wakannai naa, boku wa

Even if I want to die, even if I want to die
死にたくても、死にたくして
shi ni takuttemo, shi ni takushite
Today, singing the lyrics
歌詞になって歌う今日だ
kashi ni natte utau kyou da

When I put my trembling voice into song
振りわせた声を歌に吹き込んだ時
furuwaseta koe wo uta ni fukikonda toki
For the first time, my breath reflected in my eyes
僕の息が初めて目に映って
boku no iki ga hajimete me ni utsutte
I realized
気づいたんだよ
kizuitan da yo

The value of music is just subjective
音楽の価値なんて所詮主観だと
ongaku no kachi nante shosen shukan da to
So, I want to sing
なら、歌いたいように
nara, utaitai you ni
Convey the words I want to convey
伝えたい言葉を伝う
tsutaetai kotoba wo tsutau

Afraid of mistakes
間違いに怯えて
machigai ni obiete
Not blocking
塞ぐんじゃなくて
fusagun janakute
Struggling to be correct
正しくあろうって
tadashiku arou tte
That's what I want
あがいていたいんだよ
agaiteitain da yo

It's my fault, it's my fault
僕のせいも、僕のせいだ
boku no sei mo, boku no sei da
Even if I'm made fun of
馬鹿にされたって僕は
baka ni saretatte boku wa
Hurt and hurting
傷ついては傷つけて
kizutsuite wa kizutsukete
Creating lyrics to live
歌詞を作って生きる
kashi wo tsukutte ikiru

Because what I see now is everything
目に見えた今が全てだから
me ni mieta ima ga subete dakara
I don't want to pass by the past or future
過去や未来に過ぎたくないから
kako ya mirai ni sugaritakunai kara
True image, move, move
真の像よ、動け、動け
shin no zou yo, ugoke, ugoke!
Even if it's uncertain, my heartbeat
不確かだとしても僕の鼓動
futashika da to shitemo boku no kodou

That light I once hated
いつか憎んだ、あの光も
itsuka nikunda, ano hikari mo
Is clearly shining in my eyes
僕の目を確かに照らしている
boku no me wo tashika ni terashiteiru
I'll embrace this heart
かしかしていくんだ、この心を
kashika shite ikun da, kono kokoro wo
While holding onto my true feelings
デタラメな本音を抱えながら
detarame na honne wo kakae nagara

I want to breathe, crying out at birth
息が吸いたくて、産声を上げて
iki ga suitakute, ubugoe wo agete
Struggling to breathe, crying again
息ずらくなってまた泣いて嗚咽て
iki zuraku natte mata naite wameite
Wanting to live? Wanting to live?
生きたくって？生きたくって
ikitakutte? ikitakutte?
I don't understand, man, I
わけわかんないなぁ、僕は
wake wakannai naa, boku wa

Even if I want to die, even if I want to die
死にたくても、死にたくして
shi ni takuttemo, shi ni takushite
Becoming lyrics and singing
歌詞になって歌う
kashi ni natte utau

If there's a present I want to disappear from
消えたくて生きた今があるなら
kietakute ikita kyou ga aru nara
I don't have to lie about either
どちらも嘘にはしなくていいから
dochira mo uso ni wa shinakute ii kara
Sing the true image, sing
真の像を、歌え、歌え
shin no zou wo, utae, utae!
Hope and shore are my heartbeat
希望も岸も僕の鼓動
kibou mo kishi mo boku no kodou
