Jailbreak English by Neru Lyrics
Born in this gasoline-reeking town under the shade of confining city wall
We don't even know the color of a meadow yet
"If we keep waiting here for help
We will just end up being better at Monopoly,"
You once said that with a laugh
Screaming from the mob
Echoing sound of a gunshot
How could you call something a life?
With your breath dispersed into white puff
You muttered
“Let’s escape.”
Back then, we used to dream
That beyond this cage warmth and love would exist;
That we were going to fly there beyond this closed window
Just how many times had we immersed ourselves within such dreams?
There is this story from distant memories, where once you proudly showed me–
Your ridiculous looking design–
A childish fantasy
Yet I was drawn to your vision
And now here right before my eyes
Is the plane from that day
With fainting buzzer sound
Noises from the police
And reverberating firing commands
Seizing a brief moment
Through the wrecked ceiling–
I escape
Back then, we used to talk about a dream–
How from the above of this cage
How from the above of this cage, we'd be looking down upon this garbage-like city
With all my strength, as if breaking my bones, I'll push down this rusty lever;
Going full throttle, right now
I'll break through reality
Even with all the warning signs
Unknown causes
And error lamps flickering non-stop
Without batting an eye, you keep raising the altitude–
And smile
With the engine ever-heating and whatever happened to the plane
How great is the vast sky reached all the while to a nonchalant degree
Even if my body were to be blown away somewhere
I think all of this is already good enough
We don't even know the color of a meadow yet
"If we keep waiting here for help
We will just end up being better at Monopoly,"
You once said that with a laugh
Screaming from the mob
Echoing sound of a gunshot
How could you call something a life?
With your breath dispersed into white puff
You muttered
“Let’s escape.”
Back then, we used to dream
That beyond this cage warmth and love would exist;
That we were going to fly there beyond this closed window
Just how many times had we immersed ourselves within such dreams?
There is this story from distant memories, where once you proudly showed me–
Your ridiculous looking design–
A childish fantasy
Yet I was drawn to your vision
And now here right before my eyes
Is the plane from that day
With fainting buzzer sound
Noises from the police
And reverberating firing commands
Seizing a brief moment
Through the wrecked ceiling–
I escape
Back then, we used to talk about a dream–
How from the above of this cage
How from the above of this cage, we'd be looking down upon this garbage-like city
With all my strength, as if breaking my bones, I'll push down this rusty lever;
Going full throttle, right now
I'll break through reality
Even with all the warning signs
