Here in Hakone, in the evergreen
Reminds me of the Northwest valleys
Those wooden steps I once called home
“There’s gotta be more out there for me”
A naive boy, likewise my dreams
Thinking “I won’t end up like the boys on cannery row”
And maybe I don’t have much room to complain
I made it farther than I ever thought I’d make
But have I lost all hope?
Sure could use a bit of that youthful arrogance I
Had many years ago
I can barely write my name, the fuck do I know?
自分に「解放しろ」と言い聞かした
過去の少年の僕はもう死んだから
この心はもう海の向こう
オヤジに「LIVE FREE」と言われたけど
愛する人のそばにいれない
「孤独」って言葉ってこういう意味だったのかい？
And maybe I don’t have much room to complain
I made it farther than I ever thought I’d make
But have I lost all hope?
Sure could use a bit of that youthful arrogance I
Had many years ago
I could barely write my name, the fuck did I know?
When did I forget
That you can’t just run from
Work you haven’t done, oh
I'm a mess
だからどこへ行っても言葉の壁だよ
過大評価
浅学菲才だ
Can’t shake the fear that
I’m fucking something up
When did I forget
That you can’t just run from
Work you haven’t done, oh
I'm a mess
だからどこへ行っても言葉の壁だよ
過大評価
浅学菲才だ
Can’t shake the fear that
I’m a fucking joke
Confidence waning
誰か助けて

The summer of ‘04, you remember?
My bag’d barely hit the floor
Then I’d try to tell you how things were
What a waste of breath that was
So I really don’t care to read your messages now
The tension in the room is kinda freakin’ me out
Oh, God save me now, from
The space you occupy in my head
It’s so ironic how the apathy hits the most for me
A decade passed, closing in on 30
You, all of a sudden
Remember I’m your son and
You think you can waltz right in?
That ship is long gone
You missed the boat, man
Don't you call my phone, leave me my peace
I got my own shit
I gotta deal with
I got no time, no energy to give to this
Find your peace some other way
I hope those tapes gave you comfort
'Cause you'll get none from me
Even now some days I still wonder
Why you never bothered to see
All the reasons I couldn’t “come home”
Why I prefered the television’s glow
So unwilling to admit what you’ve done
I am not the bad guy for pulling off your blindfold
And it’s enough to make you sick
The way you fucking hypocrites
Go round and round with your bullshit
Convincing yourselves you're the victims
When I was a kid, I used to wonder
Why Tidus struck a chord with me
But I can see now, now that I’m older
I am the one who will write my story
I was way too young
To be feeling the weight of the world
It used to break my heart
And now I barely feel anything
I buried you such a long time ago
So are your lessons learned?
I hope it was worth it
'Cause I am not your son
Goodbye

Eyes shoot awake
And there’s the ache,
Never wasting any time
On dragging down this heart of mine.
I’m more than aware (more than aware)
That nothing I do will ever make this change.
I couldn’t even look your wife in the face.
Did I even know you at all? What the hell was I supposed to say?
It’s ironic, wishing, begging for all this extra time
When that’s all that I’ve got anymore.
Welcome to my life.
I stepped into the sunlight and fell, hitting the ground face-first
And I can’t bring myself to believe in the power of the American Dream anymore.
I’ve tried to put this pen to paper many times before
But the words won't come, and you’re still gone,
So again I'll sit in silence alone.
I’ve been tossing and turning around in my bed,
These thoughts of you on repeat in my head.
'Cause I promised that I’d help you heal, but instead
I sat there watching you sell all your shit
How many fucking people will be taken from me?
I'm reminded of your absence constantly
With every passing face I think of what we would've been
What am I supposed to do with these feelings?
I stepped into the sunlight and fell, hitting the ground face-first
And I can’t bring myself to believe in the power of the American Dream anymore.
I’ve tried to put this pen to paper many times before
But the words won't come, and you’re still gone,
So again I'll sit in silence alone.
On my own
I should've done something
'Cause I knew that you were hurting
I even knew what to look for
And I still did nothing.
They tell me not to turn back time,
“This hierarchy bullshit won't get you peace of mind.”
But you once told me that love is never safe
That’s all that’s running through my head
In the gently falling rain
And if I’m wrong, and Heaven awaits,
I hope you'll play that Neck Deep song for me.

森さんは元気なさそう
無口で目も合わせない
「旦那さん浮気したそう」って
周りの混声は止まらない
なぐさめたいと思ってる人一人もない
なぜか誰もしらない
Well I guess that's how it goes
あれしかないかい、
乗り越えるの頑張ってるよ
It gets betterを信じたいの
証拠はないが
多少マシな人生を歩んでみよう
伊藤さんは不安症
毎日必死に生きてるらしい
神田さんは仕事
戻りたいけど夫は反対
How did I get here?
落ち込んで引きこもる
Hate this feeling
倒れて入院しちゃう
Where am I going?
みんなが生きてる理由、
Someone kill me
時間かかっても掴んでみせる
そうすると
いつか立ち直って向き合う
Well I guess that's how it goes
あれしかないかい、
乗り越えるの頑張ってるよ
It gets betterを信じたいの
証拠はないが
多少マシな人生を歩んでみよう
