待って
鼻を利かせなよ
今宵は雨だろう
傘くらい携えて行け
恐いことは流されること
五官が有るだろう
なにより頼れば良いのに
お前の瞳が暗く翳っている瞬間(とき)は何時も
気圧の所為にして忘れているんだ
思い起こせ生命(いのち)
自分の道具を持て余す位なら濡れて帰れよ
ご覧よほら
耳を澄ましなよ
雨音は何処に
ぶつかり派手になるのか
酷い騒音に言葉失えど
五感を涸らすな
其れだけ頼れば良いから
お前の瞳が濡れて火照っている瞬間(とき)は何時も
文明の所為にして怠けているんだ
使い果たせ生命(いのち)
自分の脳味噌飼い殺す位なら立ち尽くして居ろ
思い出せぬ程の深い痛手と
使い切れぬ程の高い理想抱え
びしょ濡れになったら迎えに行くよ
ただ自分の現在地見誤るな

Wait
Use your nose
Can't you tell it'll rain this evening?
At least take an umbrella with you
To be scared is to let yourself be carried in the flow
You have five senses, don't you?
If you would just rely on them first, you'd be fine
Whenever your eyes are growing dark
You always blame it on the air pressure and forget
Remember the life you have
If you're not even going to carry your own gear, then just come home wet
Just look
Open your ears
Where is the sound of rain coming from?
What is it hitting that makes it so loud?
Maybe all words will be lost among all the noise
But don't wear out your five senses
All you need to do is rely on them
Whenever your eyes are wet and burning
You always blame it on modern civilization and get lazy
Use up all the life you have
If you're going to let your brains go to waste until you die, then just stand still
Carrying wounds so deep that you can't remember
And ideals so high that you can't live up to them
When you're soaking wet, I'll come for you
Just don't misjudge where you are
