Misono Abe - Virgin Suicides
текст песни

Every lie I tell is just dead weight
Before long I’m starting to suffocate
Hey you, won’t you come and help me cut my lungs away?

I’m sure that tomorrow will be better
Why are you so happy when you say those words?
Hey you, I don’t like it when you smile with your eyes that way

Holding your hand in mine
Holding your hand in mine
Is something that I will not give up at any time

So is it okay for me to kill you?

Hey, you know, your beautiful glow
Is sure to fade away with time and age one day
But hey, I know, to keep you like so
I’ll have to stop you now while you are still this way

And in the bead made of glass hanging off from your lash
There’s an upside-down world I can see
And it’s in there that we should, that we could, forever
Be just us, locked inside - you and me

[Instrumental]

There’s no one who has the time to mourn
Over flower petals that are scattered and torn
To the ones who walk along this road, they’re nothing

Everything in this town will go through change
Even the two of us can’t escape this change
The thought that one day we’ll be different is frightening

The sound of your voice, to me
Is something that I need
Even more so than my need to eat or drink or breathe

So is it okay for me to kill you?

Hey, that’s right, your beautiful eyes
Are sure to lose their light and cloud over one day
But hey, that’s right, to freeze you in time
I’ll have to stop you now while you are still this way

And in the blood that I bit out from your fingertip
There’s a world stained in red I can see
And it is the color of all the love that came from
My dear you, who I’ll keep all to me

[Instrumental]

So is it okay for me to kill you?

Hey, you know, your beautiful glow
Is sure to fade away with time and age one day
But hey, I know, to keep you like so
I’ll have to stop you now while you are still this way

Hey, let’s say, that this string of fate
Is broken and holds us together no longer
Hey, I say, that there is no way
You wouldn’t find yourself in love with another

And then the things that I still do not know about you
I’ll erase, I’ll erase, I’ll erase!
There is only, only me, that your eyes need to see
No one else, for the rest of your days

Inside the mirror that’s broken and shattered apart
There is another world I can see
Reflecting the image of all the love that came from
My dear you, who I’ll keep all to me
