Lie Lyrics English Translation by Hitomi Yaida
The lyrics mention white waves and vanishing bubbles to symbolize lost opportunities. ‘The tears I shed that day were a beautiful lie’ captures the complexity of false emotions. Hitomi describes how shared dreams linger like reproachful faces in the city where the sun rises.
Joke nanka janai kore wa marude shinjitsu deThis isn’t a joke; it’s practically the truth.
Dare ni mo hanasanai watashi dake no shinjitsu deIt’s a truth I’ll never tell anyone, it’s mine alone.
Itsuka wa jikan ga tokashite kureru nanteThinking that time would eventually melt everything away,
Mitsukasareru no ga kowakatta dake na noniI was really just terrified that you’d see right through me.
Asahi noboru machi de katariatta yume gaThe dreams we shared in the city where the sun rises,
Mada nokotte iru urameshisouna kao dethey’re still lingering here with reproachful faces.
Oitekebori no sora toozakaru senakaThe sky’s left behind as your back fades into the distance.
Nee jirasazu ni omoide ni natte yoHey, don’t tease me; please just become a memory already.
Muku na manazashi majirikenai yasashisa niWithin your innocent gaze and your pure kindness,
Aburidasareteku watashi no orokasamy own foolishness is being exposed.
Jiyuu wo me no mae ni tomadotte nigedashitaFacing freedom right in front of me, I panicked and ran.
Ano hi no namida wa utsukushii uso deshitaThe tears I shed that day were a beautiful lie.
Unmei no hito da to chikatta futari gaThe two of us who swore we were soulmates,
Mada kirameite iru moushiwakenasasou niare still sparkling, looking so very apologetic.
Uchiyoseru shiroi nami kieru awa mitetaI watched the white waves crash and the bubbles vanish.
Ano mama saratte kuretara yokatta noniI wish they’d just swept me away with them.
Asahi noboru machi de katariatta yume gaThe dreams we shared in the city where the sun rises,
Mada nokotte iru urameshisouna kao dethey’re still lingering here with reproachful faces.
Oitekebori no sora toozakaru senakaThe sky’s left behind as your back fades into the distance.
Nee jirasazu ni omoide ni natte yoHey, don’t tease me; please just become a memory already.
