Genjitsu Wo Warau -Laugh At Facts-

現実を嗤う - 東京事変

Written by：椎名林檎

You say those proverbs as if you had contrived them

I know your arrogance but do not point it out

And you've not changed a bit in three long dismal years

I think your flaw isn't so much your fault as a charm

Maybe I will meet you one day maybe wednesday

Maybe not not

Still I'm sure to meet you anyway maybe thursday

Maybe not not

I want to be you

Just like a leaf that has flown away with the wind and the rain

This romance is so mellow and so real

Just like a song that has died away with a flash in the night

I would like to be composed of you

You tell your stories as if you had no respect for anyone

I sing my songs as if I were a prostitute

You take a snap at me and stuff yourself on my welfare

I feel like I am clinging to a cloud

Maybe I will kiss you slowly maybe quickly

Maybe not not

Still I'm sure to kiss you anyway maybe sweetly

Maybe not not

I want to be you

It's hard to spend a lifetime for myself with the quakes and the storm

This romance is an error and surreal

It's clear that I love your insensitiveness like the hills and the sky

I would like to be merged into you

I want to be you

Just like a leaf that has flown away with the wind and the rain

This romance is so mellow and so real

Just like a song that has died away with a flash in the night

I would like to be composed of you

I want to be you

It's hard to spend a lifetime for myself with the quakes and the storm

This romance is an error and surreal

It's clear that I love your insensitiveness like the hills and the sky

I would like to be merged into you

I want to be you

Just like a leaf that has flown away with the wind and the rain

This romance is so mellow and so real

Just like a song that has died away with a flash in the night

I would like to be

I would like to be
