Romanized lyrics
Kimi ga mabuta wo tojireba
Kyou to iu hi no maku ga oriru
Kaaten kooru wa hitsuji no mure
Kimi ga mabuta wo tojireba
Sekai wa hitotabi uchuu no kuzu
Dore dake hiroku hatenaku tomo
Mabuta hitotsu de kieru
Hontou wa kimi igai no subete ga maboroshi dattara
Kimi no jinsei no tame ni kumareta
Setto to ekisutora dattara
Sonna fuu ni kangaeta koto wa aru kai
Kimi ga mabuta wo hirakeba
Kyou to iu hi no maku ga agaru
Kaien buzaa wa mezamashi dokei
Kimi ga mabuta wo hirakeba
Sekai wa awatete ugokidasu no
Tooku de soreppoi koto ga okiru
Shikashi maa yoku dekiteru
Hontou wa kimi igai no subete ga maboroshi dattara
Mawari no zenin ga shikakenin
Soudai na dokkiri dattara
Sonna fuu ni kangaeta koto wa aru kai
Moshimo hontou ni sou da to shitara
Sore wo kimi wa shiritai kai
English translation
When you close your eyelids
The curtain falls on this day called today
The curtain call is a flock of sheep
When you close your eyelids
The world, once, is but stardust of the universe
No matter how vast, how endless it is
With a single blink, it disappears
What if everything except you is actually an illusion?
If it were all set up for your life
Just a backdrop and extras?
Have you ever thought that way?
When you close your eyelids
The curtain rises on this day called today
The opening buzzer is the alarm clock
When you open your eyelids
The world hurriedly starts to move
Something that appears to be happening far away
But it's quite well done
What if everything except you is actually an illusion?
Everyone around you is a conspirator
And it's a grand prank?
Have you ever thought that way?
If it were actually true
Would you want to know?
Japanese lyrics
君がまぶたを閉じれば
今日という日の幕が下りる
カーテンコールはひつじの群れ
君がまぶたを閉じれば
世界はひとたび 宇宙のくず
どれだけ広く 果てなくとも
まぶた一つで 消える
本当は君以外の全てが幻だったら
君の人生のために組まれた
セットとエキストラだったら
そんな風に考えたことはあるかい
君がまぶたを閉じれば
今日という日の幕が上がる
開演ブザーは目覚まし時計
君がまぶたを開けば
世界はあわてて 動き出すの
遠くでそれっぽいことが起きる
しかしまあよくできてる
本当は君以外の全てが幻だったら
周りの全員が仕掛け人
壮大なドッキリだったら
そんな風に考えたことはあるかい
もしも本当にそうだとしたら
それを君は知りたいかい
Song Interpretation
wacci 'Mabuta wo Tojireba' lyrics explore the idea of perception, illusion, and the subjective nature of reality. They invite contemplation about whether the world and the people in it are genuine or part of an elaborate construct, ultimately asking whether the truth about reality is something the person would want to discover.
