CANARY

飛びたい気持ちをどれほど積み重ねても

tobitai kimochi o dore hodo tsumikasanete mo

However I much the feeling of wanting to fly builds up,

消えたい気持ちの半分にさえ届かない

kietai kimochi no hanbun ni sae todokanai

it's not even half of how much I feel like disappearing.

かすかな囀さえずり　籠の隙間すり抜けて

kasuka na saezuri kago no sukima surinukete

Faint chirping slipped between the bars of the cage

静かな歌が聴こえた

shizuka na uta ga kikoeta

and a quiet song could be heard.

「僕は僕のここで息を吸って吐くよ

"boku wa boku no koko de iki o sutte haku yo

"I breathe in and out here where I am.

君も君のそこで好きにしなよ」

kimi mo kimi no soko de suki ni shina yo"

You too do as you like there where you are."

壊れた想いを黙ってかき集めては

kowareta omoi o damatte kakiatsumete wa

When I silently scraped together my broken hopes,

誰にも見つけられないところに隠した

dare ni mo mitsukerarenai tokoro ni kakushita

I hid them where no one could find them.

小さな体を折りたたんで微睡まどろめば

chiisana karada o oritatande madoromeba

If I could have folded my little body and dozed off,

優しい夢に逃げれた

yasashii yume ni nigereta

I could have fled to pleasant dreams.

「僕は僕のことを嫌ったりしないよ

"boku wa boku no koto o kirattari shinai yo

"It's not like I hate myself or anything.

君も君のことを好きになるよ」

kimi mo kimi no koto o suki ni naru yo"

You'll learn to love yourself too."
