たぶん貴方は冷めきってる
自然消滅を狙ってる
いつの間に Break Down Oh～
Break Down Mistery
嘘を考えるより沈黙の Days
別れぬ理由は便利な
House Keeper
伝わるわ Break Down

そう Break Down Mistery
燃え上がる愛しさほど焼け跡は悲惨で
灰になった恋心残り火に積もる

別れましょう私から
消えましょう貴方から
嬉しいでしょう明日から自由になれる

愛してる私はね
傷付いてる本当はねだけど
冗談じゃない同情の Sex
見たくないバカな女
マイナスだらけの未来はいらない

たぶん私は割り切ってる
過去の経験から諦めている仕方ない

Break Down Yea～
Break Down Mistery
欲しがっていた Dress を手に入れた跡の
優越に似ているの
今はクローゼットの中

別れましょう私から
消えましょう貴方から
嬉しいでしょう明日から自由になれる

私だけどうしようもない
心だけ泣き止まない
だけど無駄にしない
せつなさを嘘にしない
優しさをマイナスだらけの
未来はいらない

別れましょう私から
消えましょう貴方から
嬉しいでしょう明日から自由になれる

愛してる私はね
傷付いてる本当はねだけど

別れましょう私から
消えましょう貴方から
嬉しいでしょう明日から自由になれる
私だけどうしようもない
心だけ泣き止まない
だけど無駄にしない
せつなさを嘘にしない

優しさをマイナスだらけの
未来はいらない

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of 大黒摩季's song 別れましょう私から消えましょうあなたから (Let's break up, let's disappear from each other) speaks about a couple who are facing a breakup, but there is a sense of indifference from one of the parties, who is trying to let the relationship die a natural death. They are not willing to confront the other person or discuss the relationship's issues. Instead, they choose to stay silent and wait for things to end on their own.

The song highlights the negative aftermath of a burning love that turns into ashes. The singer realizes that a future filled with negativity and pain is not what she wants, even though she still loves her partner. As a result, she takes the bold step of breaking up and freeing herself from the relationship's tumultuous nature. She is ready to accept the hurt and move on to a better tomorrow.
