虹色カメレオン ♥ Nijiiro Kamereon ♥ Rainbow-Coloured Chameleon

君の声さえもう

kimi no koe sae mō

I cared so much about people's opinions

わからなくなるほど

wakaranaku naru hodo

that I couldn't even get

人の意見を取り込みすぎて

hito no iken o torikomisugite

what you were saying anymore

自分の色無してった

jibun no iro nakushite'tta

and I was losing my real colours

カメレオン

kamereon

like a chameleon.

♫

気づいたときはもう

kizuita toki wa mō

By the time I realized,

自分の肌の色

jibun no hada no iro

the colour of my skin

絵具全色パレット乗せて

enogu zenshoku paretto nosete

was like mixing together

混ぜ合わせたみたいだな

mazeawaseta mitai da na

all my paints on a palette

黒くて

kurokute

until it's black.

結局怖かったんだな

kekkyoku kowakatta n da na

In the end I got scared.

ちょっとでもはみ出たら

chotto demo hamidetara

If I stuck out even a bit

私は一人だ

watashi wa hitori da

I'd be alone.

結局怖かったから

kekkyoku kowakatta kara

In the end I got scared,

その場の色見極め

sono ba no iro mikiwame

so now I check the colour of where I am,

色を変え自分を無くしてく

iro o kae jibun o nakushite'ku

change my colour, and lose my self.

虹色の空憧れていた

nijiiro no sora akogarete ita

I definitely have someone's love

誰かのすきを必ず持ってる

dareka no suki o kanarazu motte'ru

who was aspiring to be a rainbow-coloured sky.

私もいつか、ああなれるかな

watashi mo itsuka, ā nareru ka na

Some day, can I get to be like that too?

なんてもう辞めだ、私で居たいや。

nante mō yame da, watashi de itai ya.

Enough of that, I want to be me.

♫

誰かに認められ

dareka ni mitomerare

Each time I'm acknowledged

褒められるたび何故なぜ？

homerareru tabi naze?

and praised by someone, why is that?

本音を隠し生きてくことが

honne o kakushi ikite'ku koto ga

Amazingly, I'm starting to think that

正解に思えてくる不思議と

seikaku ni omoete kuru fushigi to

hiding my true feelings is the correct way to live.

結局怖かったんだな。

kekkyoku kowakatta n da na.

In the end I got scared.

ちょっとでもはみ出たら

chotto demo hamidetara

If I stuck out even a bit

私は、一人だ

watashi wa, hitori da

I would be alone

結局怖かったから、

kekkyoku kowakatta kara,

In the end I got scared,

その場の色見極め

sono ba no iro mikiwame

so now I check the colour of where I am,

色を変え、自分を無くしてく

iro o kae, jibun o nakushite'ku

change my colour, and lose my self.

夕焼けの空憧れていた

yūyake no sora akogarete ita

Aspiring to be a sunset sky,

何言われても君は、オレンジだ。

nani iwarete mo kimi wa, orenji da.

you're orange, whatever they say.

私もいつか、ああなれるかな？

watashi mo itsuka, ā nareru ka na?

Some day, can I get to be like that too?

なんてもう、辞めだ私で居たいや。

nante mō, yame da watashi de itai ya.

Enough of that, I want to be me.

ああ

Ah

自分の色、探すうちに

jibun no iro, sagasu uchi ni

My own colours, while looking for them,

混ざりあった、こんな色も

mazariatta, konna iro mo

got mixed up, and the resulting colour,

多分

tabun

maybe

私だって。

watashi datte.

it's me too.

このままでいい、このままがいい。

kono mama de ii, kono mama ga ii.

I don't mind, it can stay this way.

これが私で、それが君だよ。

kore ga watashi de, sore ga kimi da yo.

This is me, that's you.

重なる色は、最後の時に

kasanaru iro wa, saigo no toki ni

When our colours overlay each other,

輝くさ、ずっと色あせないよ

kagayaku sa, zutto iroasenai yo

at the end they'll shine and never fade.

いいんだ、私

ii n da, watashi

It's fine, I'm

虹色カメレオン

nijiiro kamereon

a rainbow-coloured chameleon
