YUZU - Tsugihagi

Zukan / Yuzu
"Tsugihagi"

ZUKAN [Album]

Patchwork

Lyrics & Composition: Kouji Iwasawa
Arrangement: sugarbeans

Even if we go slowly, there really won't be anything important
In fact, even if we pack it in as tight as possible, nothing will change
The usual dead end

No matter how much I strike it, it won't resonate in you
so I stopped striking it some time ago. It's really reasonable, after all
Let's just live through this conveniently

Today too this planet turns as we stand around

What're you thinking? What're you angry about?
In an era where we've even lost sight of words like that
what're we waiting for?
The future we closed our eyes to has long since passed by
Breaking off between the clouds

With ridiculous personal observations, you're unable to launch the ark
and are just watching this moment sinking now, aren't you?
Subliminal, another effect

The music's stopped! We search for a vacant spot
A laughable kindergarten game of fighting over chairs is starting
Take a look. This is our nation1

You're pretending to take a nap, huh?
Are pets the ones who're smarter?

What're you thinking? What're you angry about?
In an era where we've even lost sight of words like that
what're we waiting for?
The future we closed our eyes to has long since passed by
Breaking off between the clouds

You've known it, even your urge to get serious
Acting tough in your usual manner
the future you closed your eyes too while pretending to be a stranger
has long since passed by, flowing through time

It's past 12 o'clock. What're you thinking about?
Long ago, we would've departed right away. What're you thinking about?
...Let's sleep right away. Nice decision!

* [1] - the word "kokka" is written in hiragana, making it hard to decipher the meaning. It could mean "country/nation/state", "national pride", "national anthem", "the present", and so on. I have opted to go with "nation".
Tsugihagi

Sakushi & Sakkyoku: Iwasawa Kouji
Henkyoku: sugarbeans

Yukkuri to ittatte betsu ni kichou na koto nado nai
Mushiro girigiri tsumete ittatte nanimo kawaru koto nado nai
Itsumo no fukurokouji

Ikura tataitatte hibiite wa kurenai kara
Tataku nowo itsushika yameta'n da totemo gouriteki da mono
Tsugou yoku ikinukokka

Kyou mo tsuttatta manma kono hoshi wa mawaru

Nani wo omotte'n daka nani ni okotte'n daka
Kotoba mo miushinau jidai ni
Nani wo matte'n darou?
Me wo tojita mirai wa tou ni sugisatte itta
Kumo no ma ni togirete yuku

Fuzaketa kenbunroku, hakobune mo dasenai mama
Shizumi yuku ima kono shunkan wo tada nagamete iru dake jan
Saburiminaru betsu no kouka

Oto ga tomatte! Aite iru tokoro wo sagasu
Isu wo toriau dake no kokkei na oyuugikai ga hajimatteru
Mite goran kore ga kokka

Utatane kimekondemasu ne
Petto noga orikou-san?

Nani wo omotte'n daka nani ni okotte'n daka
Kotoba mo miushinau jidai ni
Nani wo matte'n darou?
Me wo tojita mirai wa tou ni sugisatte itta
Kumo no ma ni togirete yuku

Kimi wa wakatte ita honki dasu shoudou sae
Tsuyogatte itsumo no choushi de
Tanin butte ita me wo tojita mirai wa
Tou ni sugisatte itta toki no ma ni nagarete yuku

Juuniji mawatte'n da nani wo kangaekonderu
Mukashi dattara sugu ni shuppatsu da nani wo kangaekonderu
...Sugu ni neyou naisu handan!
