If I were to disappear
from before your eyes
Would you search for me and call my name?
If this body of mine, even in a state of decay
couldn’t run away
Would you cry for me over and over?
I realize
“Justice and reality and so on at this late hour--
none of it can do any good”
Show me madness
So how many sad lies
did you line up
so you could cling to them
when the present happens
So whenever I start fading away
for example
You shouldn’t be able to say something like,
we’ll fade away together
Hey, say something
Transience drips down,
coloring time
Please let it reach you too
The sound of an everyday life just barely scraping by
continuing to break
Please let it be heard by you too
What a kind face you have
Just slicing me up and eating me
Nothing more
Cause I don’t even want to see it
So someday
With the shape of me not to be found anywhere
You shouldn’t be able to feel
like you’ve gone mad over me
Hey, say something
So whenever I start fading away
for example
You shouldn’t be able to say something like,
we’ll fade away together
Hey, say something
