Second-Rate Solutions to First-World Problems
I'm a hoarder of antique mirrors
But I'd give them all away to just see what's in front of me
The clutter of old love, it speaks to my fears
A broken home mistaken for a fortress through the haze of tears
And I'm trying not to drown
But these heirlooms always weigh me down
She's shrouded in clouds, I saw a vision of a white gown
And I know I've made my bed
And some days I feel I'd be better off dead
But every now and then I hear a voice in head, it says:
カーテン開けて陽を浴びる
また目が痛くなる
やめない、絶対諦めない
光が命を繋ぐ
Death is approaching
Regret is encroaching
On a lifetime spent
Just wondering where all the good times went
Neither laughing nor crying
And neither living nor dying
I had blocked out the light
But I forgot that the sun shines even when my eyes are closed tight
Vanity is the killer of identity
I'm counting every blemish and I'm losing my humanity
Is youth wasted on the young?
Well it was wasted on me
Between the lines on my face you'll read a tragedy
And all I wanted was some sympathy
I wanted to be worth the salvation they were offering
I couldn't love myself so I just changed who "I" was
But that me couldn't last forever
Beauty never does
カーテン開けて陽を浴びる
また目が痛くなる
やめない、絶対諦めない
光が命を繋ぐ
(心配しないで、過去忘れて
未来を見つめて
後悔、時間もったいない
幸せも痛みも共に)
Grasping harder at straws
I wanna drink every last drop
From the fountain
When I should be scaling mountains
But I'm sitting here, head in my hands
Help me to find the strength to stand
On my on two feet
Because alone I'm stumbling towards defeat
Breathe life into my lungs
Untie the noose around my neck
Inhale the present, exhale the past
This crystal ball is now broken glass
Help me escape from memory
And I'll set this note back on the shelf
I just want someone to love me
I just want to learn to love myself
But I'd give them all away to just see what's in front of me
The clutter of old love, it speaks to my fears
A broken home mistaken for a fortress through the haze of tears
And I'm trying not to drown
But these heirlooms always weigh me down
She's shrouded in clouds, I saw a vision of a white gown
And I know I've made my bed
And some days I feel I'd be better off dead
But every now and then I hear a voice in head, it says:
