lyrics

「ふつうって」

みんなが好きだというのに　私だけときめかないとき
みんなが嫌いだというのに　私だけこだわっているとき
同じじゃないのはどうしてなの？

環七通り歩いて帰る
ふつう、ふつうって誰のこと？
好きな人を求めて　好きなことを繋いできたら　
誰もいない通りに出ていた

子供は得意じゃないから　お母さんにはなれなそうだけど
幸せの形など　あなただって違っていいはずなのに
気にしちゃうのはどうしてなの？

環七通り立ち止まってみる
ふつう、ふつうってだれのこと？
雲の上に登って　この夜を見下ろしてみたら
ひとりぼっちで立っていた

環七通り歩いて帰る
ふつう、ふつうって　ねぇ誰のこと？
好きな人を求めて　好きなことを繋いできたら　
誰もいない通りに出ていた

(EN)
“NORMAL”

When everyone expresses fondness, and my heart alone doesn’t flutter
When everyone expresses displeasure, and I alone insist
Why am I not the same?

I walk home along Loop Road No. 7
Normal, who does normal refer to?
By searching for someone to love and doing the things I like,
I entered a road no one was on

I’m not good with kids so I don’t think I’m cut out to be a mother
but if it’s okay for your happiness to differ
Why are my feelings hurt?

I try standing still on Loop Road No. 7
Normal, who does normal refer to?
When I climbed atop the clouds and looked down on this evening
I stood all alone

I walk home along Loop Road No. 7
Normal, who does normal refer to?
By searching for someone to love and doing the things I like,
I entered a road no one was on
