携帯電話 (Keitai Denwa) (English Translation) Lyrics Meaning

[Intro]
The singer greets the listener, setting a casual, personal tone as if starting a conversation about their day and feelings.

[Verse 1]
The singer talks about carrying their phone everywhere, hoping for a message from someone they miss, but nothing comes. They feel a quiet loneliness every time they check, showing how much they rely on that small connection, yet they accept this as part of who they are.

[Verse 2]
They think about getting rid of their phone, but realize it holds names of friends and memories. The phone feels like carrying pieces of their social world with them, which feels strange but comforting at the same time.

[Pre-Chorus]
Feeling lost and wanting space, the singer turns off their phone, giving themselves a small moment of peace, like saying goodnight to themselves to reset.

[Chorus]
Without the phone, they could ignore their loneliness for the day. But because it exists, it reminds them they matter somewhere, that someone out there keeps them in their thoughts, even if just a little.

[Verse 3]
While passing time, they glance at their phone and remember past arguments and promises. The phone holds their personal history, making it feel like they’re carrying all their experiences and emotions wherever they go.

[Verse 4]
Looking at old contacts, they sometimes forget who certain people are, yet the phone keeps those connections alive. It’s like a mysterious box that knows their life better than they do, holding fragments of their past.

[Pre-Chorus]
Everything feels confusing, and the singer wants to reclaim themselves. They turn off the phone and take a quiet moment, almost like welcoming themselves back home, giving themselves care and attention.

[Chorus]
Without the phone, they could avoid reminders of people who are gone, but it also helps them remember important things they might otherwise forget. It preserves every little memory, allowing them to carry it safely while moving through the day.

[Bridge]
They feel a connection to someone they can’t see or hear, like an invisible thread linking them across the world. Even though it’s intangible, they keep living and searching for that link, hoping to feel it again.

[Chorus]
The phone keeps memories of someone special alive. It reminds them of being together and the closeness they shared. They can’t forget or lose those moments, and even if only a small trace remains, it assures them there’s a place for them in that person’s life, keeping the bond alive and comforting them every day.
