This rough scarf around my neck

Still tastes like his ghost, a heavy breath

Cold words I never had the nerve to say

never had the nerve to say

Soak through the fabric, stain the day

I played it deaf, I played it deep

A telepathic game for a lonely freak

I played it deep

In this monochrome town, a light begun to glow

The final tone he’d ever show

A sweet aroma painting over lies

Strong yet gentle under leaden skies

I keep the present I can’t bring myself to show

あれこれ重ねても仕方ないんだよね

Bus-window reflections, the city stays broken

The city stays broken, the city stays spoken

(Say it slow, say it low)

“This town’s just my graffiti,” he’d grin

Stars refuse to fall, the night wears thin

Trace by trace where colors fade away

A sweet milkshake at the end of day

A brand new scab, still burning red

Too much to call it a dream I kept

やぁやぁ　ここまでご苦労様だよ

呪いの言葉でも必要かい

なぁなぁ　馬鹿だね王様だよ

裸の夢でも見てたのかい

City lights flicker, the night stays stolen

The night stays stolen, the night stays golden

“This isn’t my world anymore,” someone sighed

Who was the one who let the fire die?

I want to name you all over again

Picking up the pieces, piece by piece

I almost said it.

Neon visions, the town stays frozen

The town stays frozen, the town stays chosen
