Emotion

Lyrics & Music: RINA
Arrangement: Jirou Miyanaga & Youtorilon

I was a crybaby when I was younger
Have I changed a little since then?
"The future me" I drew with a crayon
Has a nostalgic scent

Things won't go well
If I'm all alone now

It's inside me and I can never voice it
I really want to convey it, but...
"I'm not really lonely."
Yeah, I said that and pretended to be strong
Acting like an adult, I locked them away somewhere
If I could put those emotions into words
I'm sure, I'm sure I could step forward

People praised me with "It's admirable that you're serious"
But it didn't make me happy

When I realize their gentle lies
My heart gets hurt

I want to find out the real me
Before I break
The anxiety I hide with a fake smile wrenches my heart
My freedom was vague and unsatisfactory
My emotions feel like they're disconnected
But I'll softly, softly connect them

It's inside me and I can never voice it
I really want to convey it, but...
"No one understands me."
Yeah, I said that and clashed with others
When tomorrow comes, I hope I can start to move
If I send out my disconnected emotions
I'll be able to love the present more

The long night quietly breaks into dawn
And I approach by one step

Nakimushi datta chiisai koro kara
Sukoshi wa kawareta kana?
KUREYON de egaita "mirai no jibun"
Natsukashii nioi ga shita

Hitoribocchi ja ima datte
Umaku ikanai ya

Atashi no naka itsumo koe ni naranai yo
Honto wa tsutaetai noni
"Betsu ni sabishiku nante nai."
Sou itte sanzan tsuyogatta
OTONA butte dokoka ni shimatte atta
Omoi wo kotoba ni dekitara
Kitto kitto fumidaseru

Majime de erai nette homerareta noni
Nanka ureshiku nakatta

Yasashii uso ni kidzuite wa
KOKORO kizutsuite

Atashi rashisa tesaguri de mitsuketai yo
Kowarete shimau mae ni
Tsukuri egao de kakushita fuan ga mune shimetsukeru
Jiyuu wa aimai de monotarinakatta
Togiresou na omoi demo
Sotto sotto tsunaideku

Atashi no naka itsumo koe ni naranai yo
Honto wa tsutaetai noni
"Daremo wakatte kuretenai."
Sou itte sanzan butsukatta
Ashita ni nareba ugokidasemasu you ni
Togireru omoi todokeba
Motto ima wo suki ni naru

Nagai yoru shizuka ni akete iku sora
Mata hitotsu chikadzuiteku
