Kenshi Yonezu 米津玄師 - Uma to Shika 馬と鹿 (English Translation)
[Verse 1]
Spring comes, I'm bruised and broken
The pain was so much I almost gave up
But the want to keep fighting
Continues to echo deep inside of me
[Pre-Chorus]
This gum may have lost its flavor, but I can still taste it
My heart won't give up
No matter how much I lose
It searches for a clue
[Chorus]
This must be love, because I don't know what else to call it
Yell out the name of our crest
Until our voices are gone
Close enough our noses touch, we hold our breath
And embrace the pain that makes us stronger (Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
[Verse 2]
What arе my tired eyes tеlling me?
I tried to keep my pain inside
But it only hurt the ones around me
I just wanted someone to notice
[Pre-Chorus]
Maybe I can still walk?
I bite down and taste the sand in my mouth
On the grass wet from the evening dew
I tell my restless heart "It's too early to give up"
All I wanted was to protect what’s important to me
[Chorus]
Without hurting anybody else
I know it's an impossible dream
But this foolish wish won't leave me be
And no one can steal this soul
[Bridge]
How can I exemplify you and me?
Through the same scars on our feet?
The blue sky can last if we patch each piece together
Let's go, before we start to blossom
[Chorus]
This must be love, because I don't know what else to call it
Yell out the name of the crest we fear
I'm nothing without you
Close enough our noses touch, we hold our breath
And embrace the pain that makes us stronger
This foolish wish won't leave me be
And it won't go away
