Tight or Loose

The way I think right for me
見つけ出す為に全て　形のあるものを拒み
Mitsukedasu tame ni subete
In order to find out
Katachi no aru mono o kobami
I rejected all material things
理性さえ塗り潰した
Risei sae nuritsubushita
Colored everything in only reason
Just made it my own way
面影だけが色褪せて　胸の内高まるもの
Omokage dake ga iroasete
That thing that swells in my chest
Mune no uchi takamaru mono
Only it's surface lost color
今はただ見つめ返して
Ima wa tada mitsume kaeshite
Now I'm just looking back

手を伸ばし　差しのべてあげたい　今も　変わらず
Te o nobashi
Holding out my hand
Sashinobete agetai
I want to reach out for you
Ima mo
Even now
Kawarazu ima mo
Nothing changed, even now
何をしてあげられだろうか　壊すばかりのあの頃に
Nani o shite agerare darou ka
I wonder what I can do for you
Kowasu bakari no anogoro ni
Those days of nothing but destruction
求めるだけの俺がいて
Motomeru dake no ore ga ite
Here I am, wishing I could return to them

Leave time behind soon
ため息を脱ぎ捨てて　がんじがらめの揺り籠の中で
Tameiki o nugisutete
Heaving a sigh
Ganjigarame no yurikago no naka de
I don't want to hug my knees anymore
膝を抱えていたくはない
Hiza o kakaeteitaku wa nai
In this straitjacket that is my cradle
That's give me emotion
立ち止まっていられない　消えかかった景色をもう一度
Tachidomatte irarenai
I can't stop
Kiekakatta keshiki o mou ichido
The faded scene, one more time
無邪気なままで追いかけている
Mujakina mama de oikaketeiru
In my naivety I keep chasing it
Distance　適当な配分で構わない　今も　気ままに
               Tekitouna haibun de kouwanai
                I don't care about my fair share
                Ima mo
                Even now
                Kimama ni ima mo
                Selfishly, even now
やり切れない記憶重ねても　つなぐ言葉は見つからない
Yarikirenai kioku kasanete mo
Unbearable memories keep piling up
Tsunagu kotoba wa mitsukaranai
But I can't find words to connect them
手遅れになるその前に
Teokure ni naru sono mae ni
Before it's getting to late

Get place        今すぐ
                        Imasugu
                        Right now
                        この手で
                        Kono te de
                        With those hands
                        憧れへの扉を開けて
                        Akogare e no tobira o akete
                        Open the door to my longing

Get place        この思い
                        Kono omoi
                        Until I reach
                        届くまで
                        Todoku made
                        That thought
                        躍らせて
                        Odorasete
                        Let me fly

Get place         このまま
                        Kono mama
                        As it is
                        このままで
                        Kono mama de
                        Just as it is
                        Tight or loose
