Why I wanna you? Meaning & Lyrics (Mikl)
MiKL describes a life on autopilot, clicking a remote with nothing good on TV. The songwriter questions his own emotions, asking why he wants to cry or smile at all. He finds a turning point in human connection, expressing a desire to ‘hold your hand so tight, so close to me’ (Gyu tto gyu tto sono te o tsunaide itai). The musician uses the sky as a metaphor for a perspective that can turn from cloudy to sunny.
Push the zapper TV de wa tsumannaiI click the remote, but there’s nothing on TV.
Ka bussou na wadai de kokoro wa odonnai one nightThe dangerous news doesn’t make my heart dance tonight.
Kudaranai nichijou no in the ear wormStuck in the repetitive rhythm of a trivial life,
Rikai wa iranai me no mae wa kawaranaiI don’t need to understand, since nothing before me changes.
one man one liveOne man, one life to lead.
Stay tune nagareta musicThe music played as I stayed tuned in,
Move on ugokidashitaand I’ve finally started moving on.
Gray zone kitai nante nai jinseiLiving in the gray zone, I’ve no expectations for life.
Paint itPaint it.
Why you you’re crying check itWhy are you crying? Check it.
Why I wanna cryingWhy do I want to cry?
Gutto gutto koraete aoideru in the skyHolding it all back, I’m looking up at the sky.

Gyu tto gyu tto kimi o tsunaide itaiI want to keep holding you so tight, so close to me.
Pull up down midasanai de yo life my paceDon’t pull me up or down, don’t disturb my pace.
Heiwa na polygraph that’s all right peace break itA peaceful polygraph is fine, so let’s break this peace.
Kudaranai kaiwa no Q maakuThere’s a question mark over this trivial conversation.
Kokoro to o inori no kumorizora unmetMy heart and prayers are like an unmet, cloudy sky.
Kyuu ni ame ga futte for you kasa o sashiteIt starts raining suddenly, so I’ll hold an umbrella for you.
Bisho nure demo miageta sora waEven if I’m soaking wet, the sky I look up at is,
Sunnysunny.
Why you you’re crying check itWhy are you crying? Check it.
Why I wanna cryingWhy do I want to cry?
