Hitomi: By Myself

04.07.20
Artist: Hitomi
Title: By Myself
Words: Hitomi with TK
Music: Komuro Tetsuya

Why am I crying over these pointless things again ?
It gets so pathetic, I feel all alone.
Were I to peek out at the city, I bet I could see the answer.
The passing of time is mercilessly selfish.

Just jumping into the night
makes me forget my shining
What am I confused over ?
In this far off place I notice
that I won't be satisfied by just exciting things.
my hopes will be someday
untarnished beautiful secret wishes will come true.

cowardly darling apt to dream...uh honey.
the only one in the world
Inside my heart a battle ocurring
the moment you push on my back,
there's something I should be doing with my lips
without enduring.

Look! That dewdrop of freedom
someday it will drip down
my body will begin to burn
bringing a sleepless night
a happy life exposed
right now, reborn.
and then a kiss, a burning heart
and a curtain falls on an unnecessary past.

My heart fiercely burning shakes.
untarnished beautiful, my secret thought just one.

Translator's Notes: "an exposed happy life" refers not to real happiness but assumed happiness, when hitomi says that her life is reborn, she means that once exposed she realized she wasn't happy and affected a change. This is her description of freedom.
