Bump of Chicken: Title of Mine
04.01.18
Artist: Bump of Chicken Title: Title of Mine Words: Fujiwara Motoh Music: Fujiwara Motoh Why is it, that when I can't seem to get to sleep no matter how long I wait, I end up listening to a song I should be sick of hearing by now. What am I afraid of? What do I need? Even if I think it over til the sparrows sing, come morning, I don't understand a thing. That was a heavy chain called loneliness. That I fastened good round myself, of my own will one day I'll discover them and wonder when it was I fastened them when I see the burning sky, it makes me want to hear your voice and suddenly I realized. I've done such a good job of supressing my sobbing, embarassed at the thought of wanting to be touched by others, I dared call it pride. Aa When I demand my throat speak how I truly feel, My voice quivered as well, I couldn't really hear it. I politely declined the hand offered to me I've sung like a sparrow without missing a beat but when I realized What am I!? Wanting to be touched by you. Just now I realized I forgot to sing about what's really important. I pretended to want loneliness I was well aware of the warmth of your hand. I was just afraid that if you touched me with those hands, I'd someday have to leave you. Is it alright, if I sing that I want to be touched by others? stealing from one another, lying to each other killing one another over the littlest things, when we try to touch, we pull apart, we get scared, yet, still I like people who want to be touched by others flush the sobbing away, clinging and hurting again and again I want to be touched by you, call my name! if there was no one else, and I was all alone singing this song, my life wouldn't serve any purpose at all. none at all.
