KAF - Yakou Bus nite
Lyrics
遠い目をした街灯が
The streetlight with distant eyes
今更責めたててくる
Now it reproaches me, too late
夜行バスはあと五分
The night bus is five minutes away
ざわついた灯りが揺れている
The restless lights sway
嫌気がさした母に連れられ
Led by my mother, sick of it all
二人で浴びた朝日は
The morning sun we bathed in together
今も 覚えている
I still remember it now
角を曲がれば雨が降っていて
When I turn the corner, rain is falling
通りに出れば人が鳴いていて
When I step onto the street, people are crying
野良猫が泣いて爪を噛んでいる
A stray cat cries, biting its claws
放浪少女が抱きかかえている
A wandering girl holds it in her arms
そんな情景も風化していく
Even such scenes erode with time
過疎化した夕焼けが
The depopulated sunset
過ぎ去って夜の街になり
Passes, turning into a night town
夜に溺れたがる僕たちは
We who long to drown in the night
廃ビルの屋上で黄昏れる
Linger at dusk on an abandoned building's rooftop
遠慮気味の太陽が
The hesitant sun
何もかも綺麗に焼き払う
Burns everything cleanly away
そんな街に僕はいた
I was in that kind of town
この街で生きていた
I lived in this town
五分も歩けば田舎になって
Walk just five minutes and it turns to countryside
蛙がいつも待っている
Frogs are always waiting
その先の僕の家は今では
My house beyond there, now
ここからはもう見えない
Can no longer be seen from here
ハエがまとわりついて
Flies swarm around
駄菓子屋はいつか潰れて
The cheap candy shop eventually closed
昔通りに生きていけると
I thought I could live as before
思っていたら大違いだ
But that was a huge mistake
ラブホ街を抜けた先で
Past the love hotel district
姉の迎えをまっている
I'm waiting for my sister to come get me
そんな街に僕はいた
I was in that kind of town
この街で生きていた
I lived in this town
この街に僕はいた
I was in this town
