Knot Lyrics Translation Shytaupe | WELCOME TO YOUR LIFE

佐々木 想 writes about spotting a former love with shorter brown hair and orange nails, a moment filled with unspoken words. The lines ‘A sour fruit burst somewhere deep inside my heart’ describe the emotional turmoil of unanswered affection. Shytaupe’s performance carries the weight of this melancholic narrative, blending introspection with raw emotion.

Sou ieba guuzenBy the way, it was just a coincidence.
Orenjiiro no neiruThose orange-colored nails of yours.
Mijikaku natte ita chairo no kaminokeYour brown hair’s gotten a lot shorter.
Mikaketa kedo zenzenI spotted you, but I just couldn’t do it.
Koe nante kakerarenkattaI couldn’t even manage to say a word.
Suppai kajitsu ga kokoro no dokka de hajiketaA sour fruit burst somewhere deep inside my heart.
Konkai mo kimi ni gunbai kachime wa nai no saYou win again this time; I don’t stand a chance.
Dakara mou sorosoro gubbaiSo, it’s about time I said goodbye.
Shiyou janai ka itsumo zurui naLet’s just do it, you’re always so unfair.
Ai ga nanda tte iu no saWhat’s love supposed to be, anyway?
Koushite kimi wo mattatteEven if I keep waiting for you like this,
Sono te wa tsukamenai n deshouI’ll never be able to reach your hand, right?
Aitai to negau dake muda naraIf just wanting to see you is a waste of time,
Tsukihanashite yothen please, just push me away.
Kamisama boku no kotae niGod, when it comes to my answer,
Uso wa nai to ieru kedoI can honestly say there aren’t any lies.
Kore hodo kurushii omoi wo suru naraBut if I have to feel this much pain,
Akirametai nante omottaI’ve started thinking I want to give up.
Nusunda nigousenSpeeding down Route 2 like I’ve stolen the road,
Kaze wo kitte hashiruI’m cutting through the wind as I drive.
Renraku wo matte iru jibun ga uzakute iya ni naruI hate how annoying I am, still waiting for your text.
Kimi wa dou dai boku ga inakutatte neeHow are you doing without me around, huh?
Kimi wa dou dai tsumaranai pureirisutoHow are you doing with that boring playlist?
Katamimi de odoru no kaiAre you dancing with just one earbud in?
Nijuusan aki ni natte natsu no nioi mo wasurekaketeI’m twenty-three now, and autumn’s making me forget the scent of summer.
Gomenne no saki de itsumoBeyond every ‘I’m sorry’ we’ve shared,
Namida ga afuresou ni matta koto omoiokoshitaI remembered waiting until my tears were ready to overflow.
Boku wa dou da ai mo kawarazu niWhat about me? I haven’t changed a bit.
Kimi wo mattatteEven if I wait for you,
Sono te wa tsukamenai n deshoI’ll never be able to reach your hand, right?
Aitai to negau dake muda naraIf just wanting to see you is a waste of time,
Tsukihanashite yothen please, just push me away.
Kamisama boku no kotae niGod, when it comes to my answer,
Uso wa nai to ieru kedoI can honestly say there aren’t any lies.
Kore hodo kurushii omoi wo suru naraBut if I have to feel this much pain,
Akirametai nante omottaI’ve started thinking I want to give up.
Kimi to no kono musubime ga tokemasu you niI pray this knot between us finally comes undone.
