I can’t hear your voice

breathing,

ah

I’m sinking into

a dark place.

I can’t remember

your memories

Sinking into an endless body of water

I can’t hear your voice

Sinking into an endless body of water

I can’t hear your voice

hear you

Sinking into an endless body of water

I can’t hear your voice

I can’t hear your voice

Sinking into an endless body of water

I can’t hear your voice

I can’t hear your voice

ah

さらさ – 太陽が昇るまで Salasa “Until the Break of Dawn”


yurinasia : さらさ Salasa






Until the Break of Dawn Lyrics
Salasa “Until the Break of Dawn” Lyrics


The fire that’s quietly flickering
It’s just like me
The closer I get, the paler and weaker
What’s making you sad?
Come here, I want to be kind to you


I feel like Romeo and now he’s gone
I don’t have to be anything again
I’m used to being judged
I want to dream


I want secrets
I dance till I touch the back of the moon


In my vision
A little touch of your swinging bangs
reach out and touch it


The fire that quietly extinguishes
Like an exhale.
Gently, lightly caress it
I stare at each sad thing
It’s becoming my own light




That I don’t need anyone to know
Only the wind can protect me
I still can’t put my shoelaces on
Like a dream


My secret
Dance till you touch the back of the moon


The world
Come here and dance before you know it
Touch me just a little


On my back
Dance for two on a night that’s about to overflow
Touching the sun

太陽が昇るまで
(Until the Break of Dawn) Lyrics
さらさ「太陽が昇るまで」歌詞


静かに揺れる火は
私に似てる
近づくほど淡く弱く
何が君を悲しくさせているの?
ここにきて 優しくしたいの


I feel like romeo
なのに消えた
また何者にもならず済んだ
ジャッジされることも慣れてきた
夢見たい


秘密が
月の裏に触れるまで踊って


視界で
揺れる前髪に少し触って
手を伸ばして触って


静かに消える火は
吐息に似てる
優しくして 軽く撫でて
悲しいことひとつひとつ見つめる
私だけの光になってく




誰にも分かられなくていいこと
風だけが私を守ること
まだ靴紐は通せないまま
夢みたい


秘密が
月の裏に触れるまで踊って


世界が
気付く前にここに来て踊って
少しだけ触って


背中で
溢れそうな夜に
2
人踊って
太陽に触って
