about

No matter my age, I can't change my personality. I'm just understanding the real meaning of honesty. That is to live cheerfully as I really am.

lyrics

Self

No matter my age, I can't change my personality.
I'm not able to get truly into the role of being a man or a woman.
To meekly and sweetly do something is a circus. I can't continue to do so. I was lamenting, I covet others' possessions often, but have to be patient.
Someone's words, someone's life rhythm,
Someone's memory, someone's proud moment,
Someone's effort, someone's trusting relationship.
I was crying out my truth, every time I pursued others' possessions.
No matter my age, I can't change my personality. I'm here, but am not a child, an adult or anything. I'm just understanding the real meaning of honesty. That is to live cheerfully as I really am.


姿 Sugata

いくつに なっても 変われやしない
男にも 女にも 成りきれないでいるよ
素直に 優しくなんて サーカスみたい 続かない
人のもの 欲しがっては 我慢して 嘆いていた

誰かの 言葉 誰かの 生活リズム
誰かの 思い出 誰かの 晴れ姿
誰かの 努力 誰かの 信頼関係
人のもの 追いかけては 真実を 嘆いていた

いくつに なっても 変われやしない
大人でも 子供でも 何でもない 自分がいるよ
素直って 本当の意味が 今やっと 身体に在る
見たまま 吾がままを 明らかに 生きること
