[Intro]
Your mouth that speaks pretty words
Because it torments you

[Verse 1]
In these days of the same thing
Ah, we seek meaning and get close to each other
Behind the crowded color filters
You're laughing
The cunning that I resented so much
Even though I'm living my own way now
I'm still bound by my obsessive thoughts
[Pre-Chorus]
You act tough
But you bite your lip
You don't understand
Ah
Just pretending

[Chorus]
I sing because I hate your mouth that speaks pretty words
Your face that has given up
Glooms over me

[Post-Chorus]
Even this voice doesn't get through
I want to weave more perfect words
I'm always greedy and I'm sure I'll make mistakes
An imperfect morning falls today too

[Verse 2]
In my everyday life where I can't even say what I really think,
there's just a voice that laughs and says "What is an ideal?"
I can't choose what to say back
The pain just grows

[Chorus]
Hide with the urge to put up a false front
Do you want to live beautifully?
As you pile on layers of resignation
You can't see the "truth"

[Bridge]
Your mouth that speaks pretty words
Your mouth that speaks pretty words
(Ah)

[Chorus]
I hate your mouth that speaks pretty words
That face that has given up
is tormenting you

[Post-Chorus]
Even this voice doesn't get through
I want to weave more perfect words
I'll keep on being greedy and surely make mistakes
But I'll still sing because I'm imperfect
