Happy Ending Show Lyrics Meaning Asoboism | SOLO
The songwriter talks about a relationship that turned toxic, using lines like ‘We both used to shine when we first met, but before I knew it, we became each other’s chains.’ ASOBOiSM describes the pain of a breakup but focuses on the strength it takes to move forward. The metaphor of a ‘Band-Aid’ on the heart shows the struggle to heal and the recurring ache of old wounds.
All the pretty things you sayAll the pretty things you say.
But you would leave me anywayBut you’d leave me anyway.
Then I’ll be happy in this wayThen I’ll be happy this way.
Kizutsukenaide don’t stay closeDon’t hurt me, and don’t stay close.
My happy ending showThis is my happy ending show.
Hitori no hou ga easy nowBeing alone is easier now.
Mou dare to ikichigau koto mo nai nara ii janIf I don’t have to clash with anyone anymore, it’s fine.
I drew a line between usI drew a line between us.
I trust everybody cuz I was youngI trusted everyone because I was young.
Kowai mono nante naiI’ve got nothing left to fear.
Now I knowNow I know.
You made me think I’m not good enoughYou made me think I’m not good enough.
So rude hitori no hou ga mashiYou’re so rude; I’m better off alone.
So good kowagaranakute iiIt’s so good; I don’t have to be afraid.
Jibun no monogatari shinario wa watashi ga kakuI’m the one writing the script for my own story.
Kokoro ni bando eido hatteI put a ‘Band-Aid’ on my heart,
Yagate kuru wakare ni futa shitemo hagaretebut even if I try to cover the coming breakup, it peels off,
Mata uzuku itamiand the pain begins to throb again.
Deaitate no kagayaku futariWe both used to shine when we first met,
Itsu no ma ni ka otagai no kusaribut before I knew it, we became each other’s chains.
Sabite iku kankeiOur relationship just kept on rusting.
Yagate uzai nante iiattaEventually, we were just telling each other how annoying we were.
Kore mo enI guess this was just our ‘en’ or fated connection.
Tell me what you want from meTell me what you want from me.
Ue no sora mite bakkaYou’re always just staring off into space.
Mou kore ijou nakitaku mo nai thought you were the oneI don’t want to cry anymore; I really thought you were the one.
Ushinau no wa kowai but I gotta goI’m afraid of losing you, but I’ve gotta go.
You made me think I’m not good enoughYou made me think I’m not good enough.
So rude hitori no hou ga mashiYou’re so rude; I’m better off alone.
So good kowagaranakute iiIt’s so good; I don’t have to be afraid.
Jibun no monogatari shinario wa watashi gaI’m the one who’ll write the script for my own story.
You made me think I’m not good enoughYou made me think I’m not good enough.
