lyrics

あゝ生活の限界が見える 求めていたのはこれだけのことなのか
何より壮大な音像に呑まれ 何より広大な絵画を観ても
あゝ夕暮れのチャイムが聞こえる きらきらに輝いた電車に乗っかって
僕は何処へいこう 僕は何処へいこう

言葉が時間をバラし 冷たい僕の隣に座る
同じように影も言葉を追うが 3年前の時刻表のよう
長い間、僕は同じような顔を選んできたんだ
鉄と鉄がぶつかる夜は冷たい夜だ 冷たい夜さ
あゝ僕は見たことがある 夜が燃えて崩れる時を
あゝ静かに眺めていたんだ 舞台から下りる友達の顔を
細い宿り木に留まった鳥は 言葉に揺られ翼をたたむ
言葉は灯り 孤独は踊り子 夜が燃えている 夜が燃えている

新聞の文字も、もう疲れきってしまっていて
特に休日なんかじゃ、大抵は知らないふり
暑い国の真ん中で若者が殺されたってことも
重い布団の中にまでは 届かないものね

近づく近づく届くまで近づく

こんなにも僕の寂しい考え方は
丘や峠の中にあるひっそりとした夏の寒さのようなものです
例えば馬の胸に括られた鈴が 水面を揺らすのであれば
そしてそこから鱗光が一斉に輝く瞬間を見ることが出来るのであれば
東京の空だけを知る僕は 街のネオンに想いを馳せています
人工の無機質なものに 自然のそれらと変わりのない想いを馳せています
だからこそいつか いつか夜が明けたら分かることもあるのでしょう
更新世時代から続く物語の甲斐なさに

生命に祝福が届く
幾億の星が空から落ちて
森を風が撫ぜる
鐘の音が空に響く

天国の階段を昇る 天国の階段を昇る
天国の階段を昇る 天国の階段を昇る
東京の空に 天国の階段は 今日もこの星の遥か上に 続く
天国の階段を昇る 天国の階段を昇る  




I realize my life is reaching the limit
Is that the only I was longing for?
If I am surrounded by the most grandiose sound and the hugest picture, I am at loss.
I hear the ringing evening chime
However I get into a brilliant train, where should I go?

Words break up time and stay close beside my cold body
Shade also chase the words, it looks like an old timetable issued three years ago
There have been people with sorrowful face around me for a long time
The sound of rubbed iron looks just like the cold night
I’ve seen the scene of the night was burned out
I’ve seen quietly the face of my friend going away
A Bird stops at a narrow tree and folds his wing into the words inducing sleep
Word is like a light
Loneliness is like a dancer
Night is like burning

A newspaper is in an exhausted
Especially on a day off,
it ignores that a young man was killed at the center of the hot country
So, the news does not reach me inside of a heavy blanket

Getting closer and closer till it reaches
Getting closer and closer till it reaches
Getting closer and closer till it reaches
Getting closer…

My solitary way of think is like a coldness of summer in ridges and hills in obscurity
If a bell tied to a horse waves the water surface,
and if I can see the moment of scales shine altogether from there
I am thinking of neon sign in Tokyo because I know only the sky of the town
I have a similar feeling in a man-made inorganic matter and natural matter
Because of this, someday when the evening is over,
I may realize that worthlessness of the story continuing from the Pleistocene period

Life is given bless
Hundreds of millions of stars are fallen from the sky
Forest is stroked by the breeze
Sound of a bell is ringed in the sky

Go up the Stairway to heaven
Stairway to heaven continues far earth in the sky of Tokyo
Go up the Stairway to heaven
