Aria on the extension line

Aria on the extension line(2016)

"Stop!" I'm saying
"Stop!" I'm screaming.
But before getting in touch
In the meantime, the destination is
Doing that, chasing people's shadows
Always a bad storyteller

I'm me,
Important fancy
However,
You and I are you,
To fill it up,
Far more than I feel,
Saying a word,
There is nothing else to repeat

If you see it cut out
To the feeling that ends there
If you tied with a line so far
Another one should be visible

I don't read the word of words
Feel the expression
Also in conversations that end there
The back is its back, its back is
Doing so reaches for people's shadows
The closing storyteller

I'm an important, fantasy that I'm
However
Between you and me, to fill it
Far more than I think
I can't speak a word, I can't repeat it

From words bundled at once
From a feeling of being exhausted
Every time I see him,
I have a casual greeting
Another one should be visible

Without waiting for the falling down
To the message passed by
I don't care about large and small
Continue to respond one by one
The face of words, the back of words
I want to live with the same warmth

The back of the back of the word
I imagined the fantasy I was worried about
The face of someone who's not me
Beyond that, the back is the inside of it
Doing so,
reaching out to the darkness of people
A mourning storyteller

延長線上のアリア(2016)

止まれと僕は言っている
止まれと僕は叫んでる
だけどいつの間にか
その先は、その先は、その先は
そうやって人の影を追いかける
いつも良くないストーリーテラー

僕が僕でいる、大切な空想
だけど
君と僕でいる、それを埋めるには
思うより遥か多く
言葉発し、重ねる他にない

くりぬいて見たのなら
そこで終わる気持ちにも
これまでと線で結んだなら
もう１つ、見えてくるはず

言葉の文字を読み取らず
その表情を感じ取り
そこで終わる会話にも
その奥は、その奥は、その奥は
そうやって人の影に手を伸ばす
終わり良くないストーリーテラー

僕が僕でいる、大切な空想
だけど
君と僕でいる、それを埋めるには
思うより遥か多く
言葉発し、重ねる他にない

一度に束ねた言葉より
疲れ終わる気持ちより
会うたびに何気無い挨拶で
もう１つ、見えてくるはず

降りかかるのを待たずに
通り過ぎたメッセージに
大小なんてどうでもいい
ひとつひとつ 応え続けて
言葉の顔、言葉の背中を
同じ温かさで生きていたい

言葉の裏の裏の裏を
察し悩んだ空想を
僕ではない誰かの顔の
その先は、その奥は、その内は
そうやって人の闇に手を伸ばし
嘆き紐解くストーリーテラー
