noun
a temporary prohibition of an activity
"an indefinite moratorium on the use of drift nets"


Moratorium

People coming and going are reflected in puddles
The blurred traffic light stays red
The streetlight’s speaker, as if it’s broken
Is singing nothing but lies, over and over

Lonely smiles, sweet breaths
Feelings hidden behind distant eyes
Like drops that trickle down the window

If this sky were to stop crying, you
Would fly away to where you belong
Staying with you like this, in a birdcage
Eternally trapped
Unable to fly, lost in slumber

Lovers close together, sharing an umbrella in the sun
I close my eyes to our shared moment
Blinking turn signals, urging us on
Choosing a misty road at night

All the time we spent, with our backs to each other
As well as the white lies held in our mouths
Those dreams only hurt

If I were to voice these words
The rain soaking you would surely stop
Staying with you like this, in a birdcage
Eternally trapped
Unable to fly

Hidden by the sound of rain, the two of us secretly twitter
Don't look outside the window, our hearts are here

If this sky were to stop crying, you
Would fly away to where you belong
Staying with you like this, in a birdcage
Eternally trapped
Unable to fly

A tomorrow we can't paint now
A past we can't return to, we both close our eyes
Staying with you like this, in a birdcage
Eternally trapped
Just the two of us in this world, still seeking each other

Inside the birdcage, in slumber



モラトリアム

行き交う人々 水溜りに映る
ぼやけた信号 赤色のままで
街路灯のスピーカー 壊れたように
嘘ばかり 何度も歌ってる

淋しそうな笑みも 甘い呼吸も
遠い目の奥に秘めた想いも
窓辺を滴る 雫のようで

この空が鳴き止んでしまえば君は
帰るべき場所へ
飛び立ってしまうのだろう
君とこのまま 鳥籠の中で 永遠
閉じ込められて
飛べないままで 微睡みの中

寄り添う恋人 陽溜まりの傘を
分け合う姿 僕は目を閉じる
瞬いたウィンカー 急かされるように
靄がかる道を 選んだ夜

背中合わせのまま 重ねた時間も
口に含んでいる 優しい嘘も
夢ばかりをただ 疼かせるだけ

この声を口にしてしまえば君を
濡らしてる雨は 降り止んでしまうのだろう
君とこのまま 鳥籠の中で 永遠 閉じ込められて
飛べないままで

雨音に隠れて二人 密やかな囀りを
窓の外見つめないで 心 ここにおいて

この空が鳴き止んでしまえば君は
帰るべき場所へ 飛び立ってしまうのだろう
君とこのまま 鳥籠の中で 永遠 閉じ込められて
飛べないままで

今はただ描けない明日も
戻れない過去も 二人目を閉じて
君とこのまま 鳥籠の中で 永遠 閉じ込められて

世界に二人だけ 求め合うまま
鳥籠の中 微睡の中
