See u. writes about the exhaustion of following the same old patterns. ‘I’m just tracing a prefab shape of happiness,’ the lyrics state, highlighting the desire to escape the mundane. The poet uses the imagery of distorted colors and handmade words to express a longing for a life that’s truly unique.
Shosen wa kopiiIt’s nothing but a copy after all
Shiawase no katachi o maneshiteru dakeI’m just tracing a prefab shape of happiness
Nokke kara worryI’ve been plagued with worry from the start
Miakita story wa negaisageI’m so done with this worn-out story
Douse naraIf I’m gonna choose
Katayaburi no happiiI’ll take an unconventional kind of joy
Kakikake no ashita waThis half-written tomorrow of ours,
Kimi to futari kansei sasetai naaI want the two of us to finish it together
Toka itte sorrySorry for sounding like that,
Arifureta mono deBut in this corner of the city
Afureta kono machi no sumiDrowning in the mundane and ordinary,
Hokori ga tamattendaThe dust has really started to settle in
Iki fukikaketa nara mattendaWaiting for someone to breathe life into it,
Ai ni fureta tsumi desuIt’s the sin of having felt what love is
Hayari ni noru dakeJust chasing after the latest trends,
Tesaguri no kirameki wa mataThis fumbling spark starts to fade again
Dakara sa tsujitsuma ga awanaindaThat’s why nothing seems to align anymore
Jibun dake datte kodoku oThis isolation of being my own person,
Fuan janaku hokori ni shitai neeI want to wear it as pride, not anxiety
Tadoritsukitai no waThe place I really want to reach is
Yuiitsu muni no lifeA life that’s truly one of a kind
Shosen wa kopiiIt’s nothing but a copy after all
Shiawase no katachi o maneshiteru dakeI’m just tracing a prefab shape of happiness
Nokke kara worryI’ve been plagued with worry from the start
Miakita story wa negaisageI’m so done with this worn-out story
Douse naraIf I’m gonna do it,
Mawarimichi shite wonderlandI’ll take the scenic route to wonderland
Hamidashite karafuru ni yogosouLet’s color outside the lines and make a mess
Futari sekai oOur world for two,
Tsurarete kuchi ni dasu “Kimi ga suki da yo”I find myself blurting out “I love you”
Nante hazukashige mo naiWithout even a shred of self-consciousness,
Ryousangata no kyatchikopiiLike some mass-produced catchphrase
What’s the matter?What’s the matter?
Mou sudeni yubisaki ni yadotte iruIt’s already dwelling in your fingertips,
Yuiitsu muni no dezainA design that’s uniquely yours
“Sore na”‘Exactly’
“Wakarisugiru”‘I totally relate’
Sore de zenbu katazuku?Does that really explain everything?
Oh, no no…Oh, no no…
Kuchibeta demo tezukuri no ai no kotoba oEven if I’m clumsy, I’ll give you handmade words of love
Shosen wa kopiiAfter all, it’s just a copy.
Rasen no you niJust like a spiral,
Kasanete iku ibitsu na futari dake no irowe keep layering on these distorted colors that belong only to us.
Nokke kara worryI’ve been worried right from the very start.
Miakita story wa negaisage da neI’ve had enough of these tired, predictable stories.
Katayaburi no happiiI’m chasing a happiness that breaks every mold.
Nukumori no rinkaku waThe faint outline of that warmth,
Mada tokenai mama nokottetandaremains here, still refusing to melt away.
