kanariya
 

The city is stirring
People are irritated
The birds
Flying into the night
Are already asleep

As the dream is
Afraid of the awakening
I was afraid
That my heart might be broken

Without trying to
Give anything
Without trying to
Get anything
I was always
Seeking after the reasons

The canaries were stifling their voices
Not because they couldn't sing
But so as not to cry

The canaries were stifling their voices
Not because they couldn't sing
The canaries were stifling their voices
Not because they couldn't sing
But because they only decided not to cry
Please don't be slow to notice
That it might be so

But because they only decided not to cry
If you had noticed sooner
That it might be so, more...


　 (When I had nothing to lose
　　Even if something happened, for instance
　　I thought it was my strength
　　Now I have what I have to protect
　　If something happens, for instance
　　I've noticed I'm certainly stronger
　　Than in those days)

街はざわめき　人は苛立ち
夜に飛び込む　鳥たちはもう　おやすみ

夢が目覚めを　恐れるように
心が壊れゆくのを恐れ　
何ひとつとして　与えようとせず
何ひとつとして　得ようともしないまま
いつでも　理由を探した

声を押し殺したカナリヤたちは
なけなくなったワケじゃなくて
泣かないようにと

声を押し殺したカナリヤたちは
なけなくなったワケじゃなくて
声を押し殺したカナリヤたちは
なけなくなったワケじゃなくて
ただ泣かないと決めただけ
だったのかも知れないと
早く気付いて
泣かないと決めただけ
かも知れないと
早く気付いていたならもっと...
