Description
A mixture of sweet chaos and awkward sincerity - like a conversation where you start by sending sharp phrases, and then three messages in a row saying, ‘Sorry, I didn't mean that.’ You can feel the tremor in every word: the desire to be liked, hidden behind the mask of ‘I don't care.’ It's funny and touching at the same time when a stern posture turns into childish confusion.
The music seems to swirl around a mirror reflecting a girl with perfectly styled hair and trembling hands. She is learning to be nice, learning to be honest, but between the lines it is clear: all this is not a role she is playing, but an attempt to get closer somehow. Fragility, disguised as courage, sounds louder than any words of ‘I like you.’
Lyrics and translation
Original
本当はね、あなたが好き。
最低なこと言っちゃってごめんね。
ちょっとだけ素 直になれない。 思ってもないこと言っちゃってごめんね。
本当はね、 あなたが好き。
余計なことまで言っちゃってごめんね。
ちょっとだけ 構ってちょうだい。
面倒だなんて言わないでごめん ね。 照れ隠す子供みたいなあたし。
恥ずかしい気持 ち全部捨てて今から会いに行ってもいい？ たらった。
メイク もヘアセットも全部あなたのため。 あなた好みのかわいい女になりたいわ。
いじはっちゃって強がっちゃって嫌われてないかな？
本当はね、あたしもか弱い女の 子。
本当はね、あなたが好き。
酔っ払ったふりして電話 かけてごめんね。
本当はさ、寝れない日もある。 そんなわけないわ。
嘘ついてごめんね。 照れ隠す子供みたいなあたし。
恥ず かしい気持ち全部捨てて今から気持ち伝えてみようかな。
この前買ったあのファ ッション誌も全部あなたのため。 あなた好みのかわいい女になりたいわ。
かわい子ぶって上目遣いで甘えてみようかな。 あたしだって。
あたしだって。
えい。
たらった。 メイクもヘアセットも全部あなたのため。
あなた好みのかわいい女に なりたいわ。
いじはっちゃって強がっちゃって嫌われてないかな？
本当はね、あたしもか弱い女の 子。
本当はね、あたし気づいて欲しかったの。

Actually, I like you.
Sorry for saying the worst thing.
I just can't be honest. I'm sorry for saying something I didn't mean.
Actually, I like you.
I'm sorry for saying unnecessary things.
Just give me a little attention.
I'm sorry, don't tell me it's troublesome. I'm like a child hiding my shyness.
Can I throw away all my shame and go see you now? I got it.
Makeup and hair styling are all for you. I want to be the cute girl you like.
Don't they hate me for being too aggressive and being too strong?
Actually, I'm a weak girl too.
Actually, I like you.
I'm sorry for pretending to be drunk on the phone.
The truth is, there are days when I can't sleep. That's not true.
I'm sorry for lying. I'm like a child hiding my shyness.
I think I should throw away all my shyness and tell him how I feel now.
That fashion magazine I bought the other day is all for you. I want to be the cute girl you like.
I think I'll try to act cute and look up at her. Me too.
Me too.
ray.
I got it. Makeup and hair styling are all for you.

Don't they hate me for being too aggressive and being too strong?
Actually, I'm a weak girl too.
Actually, I wanted you to notice me.
