Shadows On The Floor
堂本光一 Lyrics

Shadows on the floor
The presence of something or someone lurking in the darkness

Came through the door
Entered stealthily through the entrance

They came in through the door
They stealthily entered the room

滑り落ちたワイングラスが今 床に届く前の 最後の輝きを見せてる as tears go by
The wine glass that slipped and fell is displaying its final sparkle before reaching the floor, reminiscent of tears

静か過ぎる時が過ぎる そこにとどまっていようと もがいているかのように it's on the floor
As the excessively quiet time passes, even when trying to stay there, one struggles as if trapped on the floor

不意に雨が降って ah
Suddenly, rain begins to fall, ah

誰かがベルを鳴らし ah
Somebody rings a bell, ah

シャツのボタンがとれて 鳥が鳴く
The shirt's button comes undone as a bird chirps

絵が傾いている ah
The painting is tilted, ah

窓が開いている ah
The window is open, ah

さぁ 姿を見せろ
Now, show yourself

Shadows on the floor
The presence of something or someone lurking in the darkness

Shadows on the floor 明かりをつけても
Even when turning on the lights, shadows still remain on the floor

Came through the door 真っ暗にしても
Entered stealthily through the door, even in complete darkness

They came in through the door 忍び込んでくる
They stealthily sneak into this heart

飛び散った破片が今 頬を掠めてゆく 甘い痛みがはしる as tears go by
The scattered fragments now brush against the cheek, a sweet pain surges as tears go by

遠い昔の記憶と 近い未来の予感が 一瞬にせめぎあう it's on the floor
Distant memories and imminent premonitions collide in an instant, it's on the floor

雷鳴 とどろき ah
Thunder rumbles, ah

誰かがドアをたたき ah
Somebody knocks on the door, ah

ネックレスが絡んで ちぎれそうさ
The necklace tangles and seems about to break

花がしおれている ah
The flowers are withered, ah

カーテンが揺れている ah
The curtains are swaying, ah

さぁ 姿を見せろ
Now, show yourself

飛び散った破片が今 頬を掠めてゆく 甘い痛みがはしる
The scattered fragments now brush against the cheek, a sweet pain surges

遠い昔の記憶と 近い未来の予感が 一瞬にせめぎあう it's on the floor
Distant memories and imminent premonitions collide in an instant, it's on the floor

雷鳴 とどろき ah
Thunder rumbles, ah

誰かがドアをたたき ah
Somebody knocks on the door, ah

ネックレスが絡んで ちぎれそうさ
The necklace tangles and seems about to break

花がしおれている ah
The flowers are withered, ah

カーテンが揺れている ah
The curtains are swaying, ah

さぁ 姿を見せろ
Now, show yourself

嫌な予感 危険な予兆
Unpleasant premonitions, ominous signs

君を捕らえて放さないよ もう
I will capture you and never let go, anymore

あるのさ前兆 すべてのことに
There are signs, indications in everything

影は忍びよる 必ず先に
The shadows creep, always in advance

静か過ぎる今夜あたりは
This excessively quiet night

一人で眠らないほうがいいのでは
It's better not to sleep alone, isn't it?

僕なら行くぜ いつでもそこに
I'll go, always there if it's me

君に忍び込む まるで影のように
Sneaking into you, just like a shadow
