I’ve thought but without understanding
Under the blue sky, I stood there waiting
The wind blowing at noon that day
My imagination drifts away
Hey, I sometimes wonder where am I supposed to go?
I still haven’t learned how to take a step forward
Looking straight into your gaze,
Without saying a word, I simply turned away
I’ve thought but without understanding
Living through youth is a boring thing
I want to give up the piano
But I keep tapping
my desk on though
Hey, I sometimes think what will I do in the future?
Surely, music is just a foolish answer
But please don’t worry, okay?
I know even if I chose just one heartstring to pluck and prose
It would never disappear from me
You see, because it’s a part of me
Oh, I remember
I know that I can’t be wrong
Although I don’t care
I don’t understand it
Whether this is love, or the world, or bitterness, or just life: but does it matter?
And
wanting to know right from wrong is just a self-defense technique
It must be your fault that I had thought that
I’ve thought but without understanding
Why I don’t want to grow up, really, truly
I know that I will die one day, and I can feel my heart empty out from thinking that way
“What are you going to do in the future?”
As for me, I know that when I’m an adult
That I won’t have done a thing
How can I say that I hate people that put on a happy face?
When
I know they won’t understand
This inferiority complex in me
In my mind, it’s a ghost that’s haunting me
I know that I can’t be wrong
You’re different from me and yet you’re human
Not having that love, or kindness, salvation or foundation: don’t you think that it hurts?
Love songs like this one just hurt me, but that’s a self-defense technique
But do I not care? Although it’s your fault
I’ve thought but without understanding
Why is it so painful to keep
living?
Why can’t I make a living writing music?
Who really cares if they’re all lazy lyrics?
I really don’t care
I know that this isn’t wrong
There’s just no way I’m wrong
Yes, surely, I’m not wrong…
And yet I know that I’m wrong, known it all along
But I don’t care at all
Whether this is love, or the world, or bitterness, or just life: but does it matter?
Unable to say the right answer is a self-defense technique
I really don’t care, since it’s
all your fault
Ah~
Even I once had faith in something
That feeling was reduced to nothing
I wrote to you so many times
And I didn’t care if I’d have wealth or fame in life
It’s all true, really it’s true
That’s how it was for me then
And that’s why I chose
And that’s why I chose to give up on the music
