the pillows- one life

from little busters

translated by kevin steinbach

[Chorus 1]
Aoi keshi no hanabira ga
Kaze mo naku yuretetara
Boku no tameiki no sei da
Oboetenai kedo kitto sou sa

Nichijou no yami ni kurumari
Jiyuu ni shibararete
Kimi to yume o mita mabushisa de
Jibun no kao matomo ni nozokenaku natta

[Chorus 2]
Yogoreta boku no kagami de
Utsuseru tatta hitotsu no
Nisemono ja nai hikari
Kimi wa boku no hikari

Nejireta yoroi o nuide
Tabi ni deta kagyuu
Ame ni sono mi wo utarete
Suriheru kedo modoranai ze

Machi-iro no shinkirou kara
Mata hakidasareta
Yappari buka-buka no tsumasaki ga
Jama dakara da yotte gomakashitai kedo

Donna kutsu o haitetemo
Arukeba boku no ashiato
Tachi-tomareba sore made
Boku ga owaru shirushi
One Life

[Chorus 2]

Sawarenai sono kioku wa
Itsuka ushinaku shite shimau darou
Katachi wa nokoranakutemo
Kimi wa boku no hikari
[Chorus 1]
If the blue poppy petals sway
Even though the wind doesnt blow
Its because of my sigh.
I dont remember so well, but Im sure thats it

I wrap myself up in the everyday darkness
I am bound by my freedom
The dreams you and I had together were so dazzling,
I cant look myself right in the face anymore

[Chorus 2]
Theres just one light
My dirty mirror reflects
That isnt false
You are my light

A snail pulls off his twisted armor
And goes out on a journey
The rain beats down on his body,
Hes worn down, yet he will not go back

Im spit out again
From that town-colored mirage
I know its cause my big toes got in the way
And I just wanna hide them away, and yet

No matter what shoes I put on,
If I walk, Ill leave footprints
And if they stop some place,
Theyre the proof that I got that far
One Life

[Chorus 2]

These memories we cannot touch
Someday will be lost
But even if your form doesnt remain
You are my light
