Big Sky

青い生活に憧れを
aoi seikatsu ni akogare o
Longing for a “blue” (serene, ideal) life.
イメージして空回ってた
imeeji shite karamawatteta
I imagined it, but ended up going in circles.
行き場のない怒りを抱いて
ikiba no nai ikari o idaite
Carrying anger with nowhere to go.
白い肌を外へ繰り出した
shiroi hada o soto e kuridashita
I pushed my pale skin out into the world.

君は自称「永遠の夏」
kimi wa jishō “eien no natsu”
You called yourself “an endless summer.”
距離はもう 計り知れないな
kyori wa mō hakarishirenai na
The distance between us is already immeasurable.
目まぐるしい日々のせいに
memagurushii hibi no sei ni
Blaming the dizzying days—
不甲斐ない足取りを笑った
fugainai ashidori o waratta
You laughed at my helpless footsteps.

ずっとあの空 見惚れていた
zutto ano sora mihorete ita
I kept gazing, captivated, at that sky.
あまりの可笑しさに どうかしているみたい
amari no okashisa ni dōka shite iru mitai
It was so absurd it felt like I’d lost my mind.
そっと色を無くした君は
sotto iro o nakushita kimi wa
You, who quietly lost your color—
生き急ぐにはまだ早過ぎたんだ
ikiisogu ni wa mada hayasugita n da
It was far too early for you to rush through life.

ずっとあの空 見惚れていた
zutto ano sora mihorete ita
I kept gazing at that sky.
あまりの可笑しさに どうかしているみたい
amari no okashisa ni dōka shite iru mitai
It felt so strange, as if I’d gone mad.
きっと憂いを覚えた僕らは
kitto urei o oboeta bokura wa
Surely, we who learned sorrow—
生き急ぐにはまだ早いだろう
ikiisogu ni wa mada hayai darou
Are still too young to rush through life
