Aozora to Kuroi Neko (青空と黒い猫; The Blue Sky and a Black Cat) Lyrics
BY  ASIAN KUNG-FU GENERATION

Edit
彼は手のひらを前に差し出して
溢れ出る透明を少し汲み取って 喉を潤して
深く ひとつ息をする
それは東アジアの朝方の風景
捨てられた黒猫の様な彼だって 喉を震わせて
自分以外を呼んだんだ

嗚呼 傷ついた兵士も
物乞いの坊やの暮らす路地も そう
届かなくても 交わらなくても
空がいつもと同じ青さをたたえていたって

誰の身体もいつかなくなって永遠はないのだろう
それだって 君の魂とどこか繋がっていたいと僕は思う

何もなくて 不安で
胸の奥を掻きむしるような日々も 彼は生きて
目を開いて振り絞るように生きて
それは僕だ
それはきっともうひとりの僕だ
或いは君自身だ

嗚呼 些細な嘘も 繊細な君が泣き暮れても
届かなくても 交わらなくても
空がいつもと同じ青さをたたえていたって

誰の身体もいつかなくなって永遠はないのだろう
それだって君の魂とどこか繋がっていたいと僕は思うよ
そう願うよ

いるの?
あるの?
想い描いているよ

Edit Romaji Lyric Report

Edit
He held out his hand,
And scooped up a clear liquid which sprang out and satisfied his thirst,
Then he took a deep breath
It was a scene in East Asia early in the morning
And even though he felt like a black cat that was thrown away,
He vibrated his vocal cords and called out to the others

Ah... A soldier is hurt,
A little beggar boy lives in a narrow alley,
But even if I can't get to you,
And we don't come together,
We are still under the same sky full of the same blue

Nothing lasts forever; everyone will die someday
Nevertheless, I want to connect to their souls

He has nothing but fears of the future
He lives everyday with it tearing deep inside his heart,
And then he opens his eyes, gathers his strength, and lives
I am he
Just another me
Possibly it is that he is you

Ah... It's just a little white lie, but you cry day and night

But even if I can't get to you,
And we don't come together,
We are still under the same sky full of the same blue

Nothing lasts forever; everyone will die someday
Nevertheless, I want to connect to their souls
I hope...

Are you here?
Are you there?
I'm thinking about you
