And thank you so much for the translation! The lyrics are very sad, yet beautiful!
I love it when Ayu writes this kind of deep and meaningful lyrics!
I noticed the "ore," too! I think, perhaps, she did it to show a desire to express something powerful, since it's kind of atypical that a girl would use it. I think she mentioned in the interview with SCawaii that she used it to call people's attention?

These are the official lyrics. From Recochoku.


Tell me why

今なにを想っているの？
本当はその瞳には　
優しいものとか温かいものとか
そんなものだけ映ってて欲しい

なんでそうやって悲しい目で無理矢理
楽しいよって顔してみせるの？
なんでそうやって思いっきり強がって
俺は大丈夫だなんて言うの？

その声で聴かせて欲しい
画面からじゃ伝わらない
ささいな事やくだらない事
そんな事でも意味があるから

なんでそうやっていつも全てひとりで
背負ってひとりで苦しんでるの？
なんでそうやってこうなったのは全部
俺のせいだって自分を責めるの？

そんなに私は無力であなたを　wow oh
少しも支えてあげることも出来ない？
私にもねぇ分けて欲しい
あなたの痛みや迷いや過去を

なんでそうやって
悲しい目で無理矢理、、、

なんでそうやって思いっきり強がって
俺は大丈夫だなんて言うの？

oh oh Tell me why
oh oh Tell me why
oh oh Tell me why
oh oh Tell me why

oh oh Tell me why
oh oh Tell me why
oh oh Tell me why

そうやって言うの？

Thank you so much!! ^^ Changed some phrases around a little to fit the structure better.

Please do share lyrics for the rest of the album (esp Letter, the next LOVE and Eyes~) if you can get them~ It's sometimes so difficult trying to understand her singing, and it gets frustrating cause you just gotta know lol

I agree. it seems more suitable for max rather than mannie.

My version~
Spoiler:
Tell me why

What are you thinking about now?
I truly want your eyes to see
Only gentle and heartwarming things
Only those kinds of things

Why do you, with sad eyes, force yourself to pull a face that says "I’m having fun"?
Why do you desperately try to hide your weakness, saying "I’m fine"?

Please use your voice to speak to me
Your face across the screen doesn’t tell me enough
Speak, because even minor and trivial things
Because even those kinds of things hold meaning

Why do you always shoulder the burden on your own, suffering alone?
Why do you take all the blame, saying "It’s my fault things turned out like this"?

I am so very powerless
Can't I support you even a little?
I want you to, hey, share them with me:
Your pain, your doubts, your past

Why do you, with sad eyes, force yourself—
Why do you desperately try to hide your weakness, saying "I’m fine"?

Oh oh tell me why
Oh oh tell me why
Oh oh tell me why
Oh oh tell me why you speak like that

With all the "ore" thing, this really seens to be Mannie's take on the end of their relationship... Like, a song writtern around stuff he told her before they decided to divorce...

Even because the things the person of the lyric is complaining about seens to be the same things Ayu is always complaining about her personality...

^^Yeah, I was surprised to hear when she sang "Ore wa daijoubu da nante iu no?, but I feel like it works.

^^^Yay!

Yeah, I'm quite impressed with the "reminds me-Return Road-Tell me why" section of the album.

(I also love the "Party Queen-NaNaNa-Shake It♥-taskebab" section too, amazing!)

I adore this song, too... It is both simple and complicated... and reminds me of "old" Ayu... that is why it really attracts me. Could smb please tell me if there was any info about why she decided to pick this song to sing with her own lyrics or maybe who actually advised her to choose this particular song, or she chose it herself...? The song is pure gold

I could almost hear my heart breaking when I read the translation, such amazing lyrics. This was already one of my favorurite tracks from the album, but I think I just fell in love with it even more.

One of my favorite songs from Party Queen. I absolutely love the lyrics. Closely describes my life at the moment.

not a cover, but i guess they bought the rights to a song by a greek artist. ayu wrote her own lyrics, so its not a cover, but they sound pretty similar.
