カトレア Cattleya

Cattleya

song by Yorushika (n-buna, suis)

Lyrics: 貴方にはわからないよ、なんてのは傲慢だ 排気ガス塗れの東京を練り行く It's arrogant to say "you wouldn't understand" I march through the exhaust fumes polluting Tokyo 札束で心が買えるなら本望だ 傷一つない新しい心にして I wish a stack of cash could buy a heart I’d make my heart anew, without a single scratch いっそ僕の全部、カトレア 君にあげたいのに最後だ No, I’d rather turn my whole self into a cattleya which I’d like you to have, but this is the last of it 窓際の花瓶には君を挿しておくから わかっておくれよ I’ll keep you in a vase by the window So please understand 心を買い換えたはいいものの不鮮明だ 空が曇るから何かが晴れないようでさ It’s nice that I’ve bought a replacement heart, but things are still looking blurry Like something’s not clearing up, since the sky’s clouded over 札束で見る目が変わるなら本望だ 曇りのない新しいまなこを買おう I wish a stack of cash would change the way I look at things I’ll buy a new set of unclouded eyes いっそ君の全部、カトレア 何も見えないで眠ったら No, I’d rather turn your whole self into a cattleya If I sleep, without being able to see a thing 目が覚めた世界は雲ひとつない鮮やかだ 戻っておくれよ The world I awaken to will be cloudless and vibrant Please, come back そして僕の全部が消えて 夏陰の間眠っても 君のいた世界をどこかで思っているから And even if I completely disappear, Asleep in the gaps of the summer shade, Somewhere, I’ll still be thinking of the world where you once were ほら、いっそ僕の全部カトレア 君に上げたいから最後だ So look, I’d rather turn my whole self into a cattleya I’d like you to have it, so this is the end さよならの時間はわからないようにするから、笑っておくれよ I’ll make sure you don’t know it’s time to say goodbye, so please, give me a smile
