Description
The song sounds like the inner monologue of someone walking through a grey city with their shoulders slumped, but still keeping their fist in their pocket - just in case, so as not to give up. The words come out unevenly, as if the voice is still searching for a way through the noise and the rules imposed by others. Where one wants to fall silent, a quiet stubbornness suddenly appears: don't give up, don't fade away, don't become just another shadow in the crowd.
This is music for those days when ‘it's not working’ seems more familiar than ‘it will work.’ But in every line, a tiny glimmer of hope slips through - the kind that clings to the light of a lantern in the fog and whispers, ‘it's not time to leave yet.’ And that's why the song, for all its gloom, gives a strange feeling of warmth: as if even the most lost silence can turn into a new voice.
Lyrics and translation
Original
I'm a mess, I'm a mess 叫ないように 失いかけた声を上げ て I'm a mess, I'm a mess 振り返れない 僕の心はどこへ 行くの?
Ah 閉 ざ された世の中で 何が正義か誤かもう 分からなくなってしまう 血塗られてるメッセージ 隠された口元じゃ何も言えないだ ろう 満たされない日々 囚われたく もないな 心の底から崩れかけ た I'm a mess, I'm a mess 独りの夜は こんな思いが溢っていく I'm a mess,
I'm a mess 余裕の目配り 同じように苦しめられて やらないでない宣言だって何度繰り返せばいいの?
もう意味なんてないよな I'm a mess, I'm a mess 独りの夜を乗り 越え られたらいいのにな 真っ暗な街中を 憂いを帯びた顔で バ ラバラに立ち去っていく 簡単に作られた 意図的なマニュアルに全て奪われてる 今の世界は先が見えずに どこにも救いはなく て また次の犠牲者が増えていくの
I'm a mess, I'm a mess 聞こえる声を 探し続けて辿り着い た I'm a mess, I'm a mess 不安なmedicine もっと近く で触れた いのに 泣かない会えないシンデレラ まだ帰る時間じゃないのに ママが溶 けていくの I'm a mess, I'm a mess いつかは君と朝まで 踊り明かしたいな 当た り 前じゃないだろ やめたわけじゃないよな だとしたら答え探して
I'm a mess, I'm a mess あの日の僕は 夢は叶うと思ったけ ど I'm a mess, I'm a mess 諦めたくない なんて言葉じゃ頼り なくて
I'm a mess, I'm a mess 独りの夜は こんな思いが溢って いく I'm a mess, I'm a mess 余裕の目配り 同じように苦し められて やらないでない宣言だって何度繰り返せばいいの?
もう意味なん てないよな I'm a mess, I'm a mess こんな世界は 君と歩いていける の なら
English translation
I'm a mess, I'm a mess Try not to scream Raise the voice you've lost I'm a mess, I'm a mess I can't look back Where is my heart going?
Ah In this closed world, I no longer know what is right or wrong A message covered in blood I can't say anything with my hidden lips I don't want to be trapped in my unfulfilled days I'm crumbling from the bottom of my heart I'm a mess, I'm a mess These are the thoughts that overflow on my lonely nights I'm a mess,
I'm a mess. How many times do I have to repeat the declaration that I'm not going to do something, even though I'm suffering the same way?
There's no meaning anymore I'm a mess, I'm a mess I wish I could get through the nights alone Walking away in pieces through the pitch-black city with sad faces Everything has been taken away by a simple and deliberate manual The world now has no future in sight, there's no salvation anywhere, and the number of next victims is increasing.
I'm a mess, I'm a mess I kept searching for a voice that I could hear, and I found it I'm a mess, I'm a mess Anxious medicine I want to touch you closer, but I can't cry I can't see you, Cinderella It's not time to go home yet, but my mom is melting I'm a mess, I'm a mess I want to dance all night with you someday It's not obvious, is it? It's not like I've given up. If that's the case, then look for the answer.
I'm a mess, I'm a mess That day, I thought my dream would come true, but I'm a mess, I'm a mess I don't want to give up. Words like that aren't enough.
I'm a mess, I'm a mess At night when I'm alone, I'm filled with these thoughts I'm a mess, I'm a mess I'm suffering just the same way How many times do I have to repeat the declaration that I won't do something?
There's no meaning to it anymore I'm a mess, I'm a mess If I can walk in a world like this with you
