Last train
[Lyrics: Tatsurou  music: Miya]

We walked as if we tried to avoid the rays of the sobbing afternoon sun
Sliding into the human rubbish1 at the intersection, you grasped my hem to not get lost

We were fascinated by and drawn to each other like bipolar magnets
If I had thought about it, I would have realised that I was depending on you, only you
But that has ended, somewhat unnoticed

With the changing of the seasons, the wind alters its colour
Because there’s something I miss

The last train starting to run through the starlit sky
I board it with only a small bag
Goodbye goodbye the train makes its way through the stars
Taking me far away from the place where you sleep

Travelling so long, I became lost like a child
Now, slipping out of the train, I’m sure our exits are different.

Away from this place, the last train slipped into the curtain of the night
Leaving this place, my heart’s voice rose and cried
We we where did we go wrong?
It seems we have met only to hurt each other


1  ”hito gomi” = “human rubbish” – I guess Tatsurou talks about a mass of people or a huge crowd in the streets
