zetsubou mo kanashimi mo watashi ni wa kankei nai
jibun ga yokereba ii
awakutemo akakutemo irodzuku mono wa nai kara
seijaku wa mada tsudzuku
toki no naka de
Despair and sorrow, I have nothing to do with either It’s fine if I’m acceptable Thought pale, though red, there’s nothing changing colours so the silence will still continue in the midst of time
mietenai jibun dake mawari no koto wa mienai
jibun ga wakaranakute
joushiki mo hijoushiki watashi dake ga tadashii to
kurayami wa mada tsudzuku
mune no naka de
I can’t see, just myself, and nothing else I don’t understand myself Common sense and the lack thereof, if I’m the only one correct the darkness will still continue within my heart
Amateras makes some pretty nice Alstroemeria songs. Tsukiyama isn’t bad at all at writing Haruka-esque lyrics. Check out Black Eyes too to see what I mean.

あの日紡いだ
物語は灰になって
君のいる世界に
私はもういなくなった
ano hi tsumuida
monogatari wa hai ni natte
kimi no iru sekai ni
watashi wa mou inaku natta
The story I wove that day
turned to ash and I disappeared from the world
that you live in
遠く霞む星の光が
涙の影 儚く照らす
tooku kasumu hoshi no hikari ga
namida no kage hakanaku terasu
The light of the far, misty stars fleetingly shines on my tears’ shadows
忘れたくて 忘れたくて
逃げるように 夢の中へ
恋の魔法 早くかけて
私がまた 笑えるように
wasuretakute wasuretakute
nigeru you ni yume no naka e
koi no mahou hayaku kakete
watashi ga mata waraeru you ni
I want to forget, I want to forget so I can run away into a dream Hurry up and cast love magic so I can laugh once again
Taking Nachi’s original song spot, this is a really cute song. Normally I like my Ayame with as sad lyrics as possible, but this time it’s okay. I imagine this as a prequel to Days. I’m also a sucker for when songs have introductions / outroductions.
STILL NO LYRICS ANYWHERE.
This seems to be a relatively slow Comiket (Reitaisai speed).

いつの間に日差しが強くなって
降り注ぐ光の中にいるね
じめじめと沈んでた心なら
サヨナラ
サヨナラ
itsu no ma ni hizashi ga tsuyoku natte

Just when did the sunshine get so strong and we be left in a downpour of light? Now to my sodden and sunken heart: Goodbye Goodbye
takusan no shiranai koto mitsukeru tabi dete miyou
JUMP shite mae muite mune o hari kae agete
takusan no shiranai koto de aeta nara suteki da ne
hon no sukoshi aru yuuki o ookiku shite
Let’s try going on a trip to find lots of new things Jumping and looking forward, chest out and face raised Wouldn’t it be lovely if we found lots of new things Turning just a little courage into something big
kimi kara sukoshi moratta yume nara koko ni aru yo
hitotsu ga taisetsu dakara ne makenai you sodateyou
ima nara wakaru kara ne deai wa imi ga aru tte
itsu ka wa kimi ni todoketai watashi kara no 「arigatou」
Those few dreams you gave me? They’re right here One is special, so hey, let’s raise it so it won’t lose Because I can understand now, that meetings have meaning I want to send you someday a thanks from me
takusan no shiranai koto mitsuke ni saa de kakeyou
JUMP shite mae muite mune o hari kao agete
takusan no shiranai koto kowakunai kowakunai yo
hon no sukoshi aru yuuki o ookiku shite
Let’s go out to find lots of new things, come on Jumping and looking forward, chest out and face raised There are lots of new things, it’s not scary, it really isn’t Turning just a little courage into something big
kimi kara sukoshi moratta yuuki ga koko ni aru yo
ima nara shisen ni ieru yo 「konnichiwa」 to 「arigatou」
kimi kara sukoshi moratta kibou to yume no tsudzuki
ima nara kimi ni todoku kana watashi kara no arigatou
The little courage you gave me is right here Now I can say them naturally, “good day” and “thank you” Carrying on the few dreams and hopes you gave me I wonder if now it’ll reach you, a “thanks” from me
I’m glad nomico’s starting to make regular appearances in Alst again, but I’m not sure I want another Pop Culture album. Comiket comes around again! Once I get the scans for this and the Zytokine albums, you can expect a marathon.

hi wa shizunde hikari usurete
kudake chiru negaigoto o nokosazu atsumete
hikari no ura no kage no watashi to
de aezu ni ima demo mada futari wa se o mukete
The sun sets, the light fades away gathering up shattered wishes, none left behind Unable to meet my shadow self behind the light even now, we still have our backs to each other
hanarerarezu mada soba ni iru
sore ga kotae kaerarenai no
hikari to kage futari de hitori
sorou naraba kurushimi mo nori koerareru
Remaining unable to separate, still close together That’s the answer, it can’t be changed Light and shadow, together we’re one When both present, we can even overcome grief
anata wa hitori dake dare ni mo kawaru koto nai
omoi wa hitotsu dake kanau naraba sore de ii
anata wa soko ni iru sore ga jijitsu kawaranai
negai to omoi nara kanarazu hitotsu ni naru
You’re only one person, there’s no becoming anyone else You only have one feeling, if it gets fulfilled, I’m fine with that You’re right there, that’s a fact, it won’t change When it comes to our feelings and wishes, they will certainly become one
hikari areba watashi mo soko ni
anata kara hanarezu ni iru ima demo itsu demo
hikari no kage no omoi to negai de aezu ni
ima demo mada futari wa se o mukeru
As long as there’s light, I’m also there existing unseparated from you, now and forever on Unable to see the wishes and feelings of light’s shadow even now, we still have our backs to each other
hanarerarezu mada de aezu ni
kudake chiru negaigoto o nokosazu atsumete
mienaku naru anata no kage wa
omoi tsudzuke hikari aru uchi
hikari to kage futari de hitori
sorou naraba kanashimi wa yasuragi ni naru
Unable to separate, still without being able to meet gathering up shattered wishes, none left behind Your shadow, becoming invisible,
will continue to feel, as long as there’s light Light and shadow, together we’re one When both present, sorrow will become peaceful
watashi wa hitori dake hoka no dare ni mo narenai
omoi wa hitotsu dake kanau naraba sore de ii
watashi wa koko ni iru kidzuku koto ga dekiru nara
anata to watashi nara hitotsu no kotae ni naru
I’m only one person, I can’t become anybody else I only have one feeling, if it gets fulfilled, I’m fine with that I am right here, if you can notice that, when it comes to you and I, the answer will become just one
