Don’t Call My Name Lyrics English Translation by Nozomi Kitay
A.G.O draws a physical space that cleans itself, showing tangible change after heartbreak. Lyrics state, ‘the messy room tidies up like it was all a lie,’ using concrete objects to mark progress. This detail grounds repeated claims of flying high while leaving a partner behind.
Owaru toki wa isshun de hakanakuThe end comes in a fleeting instant,
Chirakatta heya uso mitai ni katadukuand the messy room tidies up like it was all a lie.
Kimi wa watashi o omoidashite furatsukuYou remember me and start to waver,
Watashi kimi ga inakute mo daijoububut I’m doing just fine without you.
Thanks but I’m going to the next oneThanks but I’m going to the next one,
Kimi ni watashi wa mottainai monbecause I’m way too good for you.
Jikan ga tatte hajimete you want me backOnly after time has passed do you want me back,
Sono toki ni wa I don’t need your attentionbut by then, I don’t need your attention.
Ano hi no namida ga ima wa daiyaThe tears I cried that day are now diamonds.
Jiyuu ni nareta hitori no hou gaI’ve become free, and being alone
Kage janakuteis better than being a shadow.
I’m walking in my own lightI’m walking in my own light.
Watashi wa so high de kimi wa koukaiI’m flying so high, while you’re left with regret.
Feel so goodFeel so good.
