Just me... and the night
And you
City lights, blurring on the dashboard
We're cruising through the dark, going nowhere
The silence is loud, heavy like a storm
この距離感が、ただ苦しくて
You keep me close, but never close enough
Walking the line of "just friends" is getting tough
I'm suffocating in this endless ride
触れられない肩が、冷たい
We're just playing pretend in the passenger seat
Drinking up this sweet poison, missing a heartbeat
"You're special" you say, but you won't make it official
この situationship... it's tearing me apart
Playing pretend, yeah, we're playing pretend
終わりの見えない、この dead end
Make it official, or let me go
このままじゃ、心がもたないよ
Caught at a red light, staring at your profile
Who's really on your mind behind that smile?
I'm stuck in this loop, losing all control
都合のいい夜だけ、呼ばないで
The window reflects a tear I try to hide
You turn the radio up, ignoring the vibe
I'm sitting right here, but I feel so far
隣にいるのに、誰より遠い
You keep me close, but never close enough
Walking the line of "just friends" is getting tough
I'm suffocating in this endless ride
期待するだけ、馬鹿みたいだ
We're just playing pretend in the passenger seat
Drinking up this sweet poison, missing a heartbeat
"You're special" you say, but you won't make it official
この situationship... it's tearing me apart
Are we something real? Or just killing time?
答えを聞くのが怖くて、飲み込んだ言葉
I need a sign, or I gotta let you go
この暗闇から、早く連れ出して
We're just playing pretend in the passenger seat
Drinking up this sweet poison, missing a heartbeat
"You're special" you say, but you won't make it official
この situationship... it's tearing me apart
Playing pretend, yeah, we're playing pretend
終わりの見えない、この dead end
Make it official, or let me go
このままじゃ、心がもたないよ
Yeah, the most painful situationship
No more playing pretend
Just me... the night... and this empty seat

「言葉にならない境界線。解けない、甘い毒。」
言葉と態度がすれ違う夜、車内の暗闇で描かれるのは「1枚の写真」のように切り取られた止まった一瞬のポートレート。
アメリカ特有の「Situationship(曖昧な関係)」がもたらす絶望的な温度差と、相手にとっての“唯一の存在”になれないもどかしさ。手を伸ばせば届く距離にありながら、決して越えられない幾何学的な境界線を前に、アイデンティティへの鋭い問いかけと深い孤独が溢れ出す。
バウンシーなPluggnBのビートとエモーショナルなシンセプラックに乗せて贈る、全編英語のグルーヴの中にふと覗く日本語の切なさ。
曖昧な関係の痛みを抱えるすべての人へ捧げる、極上のオルタナティブR&B。
