"Period" - TOKIO
もう逢えない… そんな言葉
押し込むように閉ざした僕の恋よ
いつからだろう? 諦めてた
悪あがいても元には戻れないと
I can’t see you again… Words like these
Shut my love off as if tucking it away
Since when has it been like this? I’ve given up
Even useless resistance can’t bring things back to the way they were before
涙する場面を怖がりすぎて
僕らは自然に笑えなくなった
試されるような苦しさを
感じてしまうから
We’re too much of a coward when it comes to tearful scenes
And naturally, we lost our smiles
Because we feel a bitterness
Close to that of being trialled
そこに果てしなくどこまでも
終わりのない夜があって
答えにただ迷いながら
重なることない鼓動だけが
時を刻み震えていた
叩き付けるピリオドの前で
Over there, there are boundless, endless nights
That stretch on forever
While getting lost trying to find the answer
Only the heartbeats that did not overlap
Made time tremble slightly
Before the period [1] hit us hard
情けないね… どうかしてた
浅はかすぎた心がいまさら憎い
当たり前に残ったのは
ごまかすほどに消せない痛みや傷
I’m pathetic… Somehow, I was a fool
Only coming to hate my frivolous heart at this point in time
The things that of course remain behind
Are those that I keep hidden, those that can’t be erased, like pain and wounds
涙する場面を通り過ぎても
君への想いにすがりついていた
限界だよとなげうって
覚悟を決めたのに
Even when the tearful scenes had passed
I still clung onto my feelings for you
Although I had made up my mind
To throw them away like I’ve reached my limit
君を失ったやるせなさ
想像すらできなかった
こんな僕を蔑むかな?
容易いことだと強がっても
僕は君を断ち切れない
あの日打ったピリオドのように
I couldn’t even have imagined
The misery of losing you
Do you despise me when I’m like this?
I can put on a strong front and make our separation seem easy
But in reality I can’t bear to be apart from you
Like how we came to our period that day
きっと果てしなくいつまでも
訪れない朝があって
答えはもう決まっていた
望むはずもない結末でも
いつの日にか受け入れよう
そう僕らはピリオドを打った
ひと思いにピリオドを打った
For sure, there are mornings that won’t come to visit
In boundless, endless eternity
I already know the answer
And someday, I will come to accept it -
The ending that is in no way desired
This is how we come to our period
Once and for all, we come to our period
[1] I'm taking the meaning of "Period" here as the end or a stop.
