Utsukushii Ibara (Beautiful Thorns)
GLIM SPANKY
Text

Each time the wind plays by this window overlooking the cross, my pleats sway
Don’t anyone interfere, cause right now is everything to me
This fleetingly beautiful time, I guess adults wouldn’t understand

While stabbing in the thorns this young woman is now
amassing more deep wounds and coming to know joy
You were by my side until now, but when I let that hand go it’s the end
You’re already someone I don’t recognize

The sky we looked up at after slipping out of the classroom was more vivid than any blue
us laughing together without knowing anything, it seems like a springtime dream
‘Cause I’m with you I’m also able to live on

This young woman running through the season just
didn’t want to forget the sweet scent of the grass
We’re talking about whether a time will come when we’ll remember this

We know that youth will vanish some day
even if we're not told, we're not fools
But even if we shed blood over it, we won’t be able to digest it all
Ah, it’s so detestable, ‘cause we really just want to know

While hiding her pain this young woman is now
coming to know, little by little, the love that can heal her wounds

Saying “Well, see you tomorrow”
Even just that means everything, it’s so comforting

While stabbing in the thorns this young woman is now
amassing more deep wounds and coming to know joy
You were by my side until now, but when I let that hand go it’s the end
Right, just like magic
Once I’ve suddenly realized, it’s the end, you’re already someone I don’t recognize
