Hitomi wo fuseruto sugu kiete shimai sou de
Jibun ga mishiranu tanin ninattaki gasuru
Kanashii hodo chippokena

Sukuwaretai kara tameiki wo tsuku no ja naku
Kakidashite shimatta kodoku no kehai no kazu wo tada kazoeteita

Kawaita jikan no naka de
Oboreteru mogaiteru kokoro
Memai ga surukurai no uso wo
Uketomete hikisaita
Soshite watashi ga mayoi komuno wa
Usuyami no sekai

Shinjirube kimono no tame ni toeranda basho wa
Jiyuu wo kagi nishita ori no naka deshou
Kesshite mou nukedasenai

Kawaita nodo no oku de
Hajimatta hakanasa no wake wa
Chikazuku ashita ga kowai kara
Uzukumari kuzuretemo
Watashi wo sagashite sasayakikakeru
Usuyami no koe

Kawaita jikan no nakade
Oboreteru mogaiteru kokoro
Memaig asurukurai no uso wo
Uketomete hikisaita Soshite watashi ga
Mayoi komuno wa
Usuyami no sekai

English Translation
------------------------------------------------------
It's like I'll disappear as soon as I close my eyes
I feel like I've turned into someone that even I don't recognize
Sadly, I've become so small

I want to be rescued, but instead of sighing
I vomited up my loneliness, and just lay there, measuring it all up

Amidst this drop of time gone dry
My heart is drowning and writhing
These lies that make me dizzy
I took them and tore them up
And with that, I became lost
In a world of thin darkness. [1]

For the sake of those whom I should trust
I chose to come here, a cage into which I've locked myself, and now
there's no escape.

Deep inside my parched throat
Lies the reason for this growing impermanence [2]
Scared of the approaching tomorrow
I cower and collapse
But it seeks me out and whispers to me
This voice of thin darkness. [1]

Amidst this drop of time gone dry
My heart is drowning and writhing
These lies that make me dizzy
I took them and tore them up
And with that, I became lost
In a world of thin darkness.

Translator's Notes:
[1] "Usuyami" can mean a dilute blackness or thinned-out darkness.
[2] The kanji for "riyuu" is here p___ounced "wake".

Original Kanji
-----------------------------------------------------
瞳を伏せると すぐ消えてしまいそうで
自分が見知らぬ他人になった気がする
悲しいほどちっぽけな

救われたいからため息を付くのじゃなく
掻き出してしまった孤独の気配を数をただ数えていた

乾いた時間の中で
溺れてるもがいてる心
眩暈がするくらいの嘘
受け止めて引き裂いた
そして私が迷い込むのは
薄闇の世界

信じるべきもののために選んだ場所は
自由を鍵にした檻の中でしょう
決してもう抜け出せない

乾いた喉の奥で
始まった儚さのわけは
ちかずく明日が怖いから
蹲り崩れても
私を探して囁きかける
薄闇の声

乾いた時間の中で
溺れてるもがいてる心
眩暈がするくらいの嘘
受け止めて引き裂いた
そして私が迷い込むのは
薄闇の世界
