[Verse 1]
The reason why I thought I'd die
Is because black-tailed gulls chirped on a pier
Appeared and disappeared drifting on the waves
Flying away and picking my past as they go
The reason why I thought I'd die
Is because apricot blossoms bloomed on my birthday
Can I become the soil with dead bugs
If I nap under the sunbeams filtering through foliage?
[Pre-Chorus]
Mint candy, lighthouse at a fishing port
Rusty arch bridge, abandoned bicycle
In front of a stove at a wooden station house
My heart can't set out anywhere
Today looks like yesterday
If we wanna change tomorrow we should change today
I know, I know, but..
[Chorus]
The reason why I thought I'd die
Is because my heart went blank
The reason why I cry over being unsatisfied
Is surely because I wanna be satisfied
[Post-Chorus]
Ha-ha-ha-ha
Ha-ha-ha-ha
Ha-ha-ha-ha
Ha-ha-ha-ha
[Verse 2]
The reason why I thought I'd die
Is because the shoelace got undone
I'm not good at connecting things together
The same goes with human relationships
The reason why I thought I'd die
Is because the boy was gazing at me
I'm getting down on my knees on a bed
To apologize to myself on that day
[Pre-Chorus]
Dimmed light of a computer
Sounds of life coming from upstairs
Sounds of interphone chimes
Boy covering his ears in a birdcage
Don Quixote who's fighting
With an invisible enemy in a six-mat room
The goal must be ugly anyway
[Chorus]
The reason why I thought I'd die
Is because I was called a cold person
The reason why I cry for being loved
Is because I've got to learn about the warmth of others
[Post-Chorus]
Ha-ha-ha-ha
Ha-ha-ha-ha
Ha-ha-ha-ha
Ha-ha-ha-ha
[Bridge]
The reason why I thought I'd die
Is because of your gentle laugh
The reason why I only consider dying
Is because I am way too serious to live on
[Chorus]
The reason why I thought I'd die
Is because I hadn't met you yet
I fell in love with this world a little more
Where people like you were born
I will place my hope in this world a little bit
Where people like you are alive
