When the days feel suffocating,
You should just take a vacation.
After all, others manage to handle things well,
So why not just go on a vacation?
Days spent trying not to care,
Or fighting to protect what matters.
Wait a minute…
I should be laughing,
But suddenly, tears start to fall.
There are people I just can’t catch up to;
I feel embarrassed by that “magic” of theirs.
I wonder…
Will I eventually just give up?
I want to teach myself—
Teach myself, teach myself—
That it’s not all just pain and hardship.
Time drifts by aimlessly,
But a touch of sweetness—
Or perhaps a bittersweetness—
Isn’t that what love is?
And surely, it’s okay…
To just do what I love, right? A weekend where people gather
Long lines, waiting for my turn
Even that person who seems to handle it so well
Learned how to switch between “on” and “off” after getting hurt somewhere along the way
I don’t want to be disliked
In fact, I want everyone to like me
But I feel a bit gross
For trying too hard to be that way
It’s midnight, and I can’t even cry
Love, romance,
Friendship—I don’t quite get it
But there’s no need to overthink it
Is there someone out there
Waiting for me?
I want to tell you—I really want to tell you—
That it’s not all just pain and hardship
Even though, in the end, you’ll go far away
Let’s cherish this day that makes us smile
Someday, it’ll be bye-bye, bye-bye, bye-bye
A crowd of people—everyone seems enviable
I want to tell you how I feel
I can’t deny
That there are days when things aren’t fun
I know—I really know—
That it’s not all just pain and hardship
Someday, you’ll likely forget
The days we spent together, and the scent of those times
If the days start to feel suffocating
It’s okay to take a little break
Just take a break—go ahead and rest
