Yanagida Kumiko - This False Separation

Why are you lowering your head?
Why can't you speak?
Is it a lie?

I'm too exhausted now, I'm leaving you so that my mind can rest
Think of this as the end
Hate me instead
Don't forgive me
When you look at me I get so happy
Think of it like I'm practising to not get into this kind of love again
You know it too
That I've left

Like a fool
I remember your shoulders as they shook
I remember those tears as they fell
Even though now I'm so happy
I guess I'm crying because it feels so refreshing
I remember your childish face
I remember all of our memories
Even though I feel so great without our memories..
I guess I'm crying already out of joy *

I even threw out our pictures
I even erased your smile from my mind
I feel fine, I'm living well without you, aren't I?
You're alright too, right? You forgot everything, right?

* Repeat

My mind is happy
Take my mind, be happy too..
Please smile, and don't cry anymore

The things I said to you keep floating through my mind
I remember the last time I'd see you turn away from me
Even though I erased them from my mind
But I guess they're still in my mind like a stain..
I remember your warm presence
I remember your warm stare
Even though I erased them
But I guess you're still with me since it stayed like a stain.
