Awake
ヤなことそっとミュート Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
朝の粒子に 反射して舞う
身体不安定 プラットホーム
光は伸びてくレイルロード
また乗り過ごした 唸る焦燥
深呼吸をして
Awake me to a sense of wonder
小さな棘を残す日々をとめたまま
by your side
ぬくもりに包まれ 夢は孵化する
凛と立つ背中
あなたの声が やさしく響く
"力は脆い だから歌うよ
ぼくはそう生きた 沈黙の代わりに
誰も分かろうとしない時でさえ"
Awake memories of the wonder
失った気がしてた それだけさ
Let's spend the night
all together
一歩踏み出し
前を向いていよう 共に
足下に近づいてくる 振動がある
Awake me to a sense of wonder
想いがあふれてる 不思議だね
Let's spend the night
all together
思い出には 何も籠められない
記憶はもっと high＆dry
次の夜はきっと 楽しめるんだろう
目覚めたなんて 大袈裟なのかな
希望だなんて 大袈裟なのか
We will never surrender

They are never gone if you never stop to listen to them. I'm now more than ever listening to them on loop and the more I listen, the most I love them.
I will always going to miss their mix of rock and gloomy music.
