LATELY kono goro kaikan wa nandaka SUUTto toori sugite yuku dake
Naoseru seikatsu wa nan toka koko made naoshite yatto anata ni tadoritsuita kedo
Dakedo honno chotto demo kotoba ga omoi ga wagamama ni nante icchattara
Dokoka munashii hibi toki ga toorisugite yuku dake
Ano ko wa shiawase nanoka nante urayandari shite

Something 'bout the kiss kidzuite kizutsuite
(Something 'bout the kiss that made me feel the hurt)
Konomama dou yatte itte (How do I go on?)
Ima made ikiteki tabun mata yatte iku no?
(I can tell the kiss is the important signal to me)
Aishite iru nante ittemo omottemo
(Even if you tell me I love you And I wanna think it's true)
Yappari KISS wa taisetsu na SHIGUNARU nano
(Something 'bout the kiss is the important signal to me)

FAKE tsukuri mono ja naku nandaka hajimete arukidashita you na
Doushite anna ni ara butteta? Sorehodo kazaranakutemo yokatta noni
Dakishimeru chikara ga tsuyoi karatte kimochi wo hakaru zairyou niwa naranai kedo
Yappari dokoka nanika uzuite karada ga oreru hodo tsutsunde hoshii

Something 'bout the kiss kidzuite kizutsuite
(Something 'bout the kiss that made me feel the hurt)
Konomama dou yatte itte (How do I go on?)
Ima made ikiteki tabun mata yatte iku no?
(I can tell the kiss is the important signal to me)
Aishite iru nante ittemo omottemo
(Even if you tell me I love you And I wanna think it's true)
Yappari KISS wa taisetsu na SHIGUNARU nano
(Something 'bout the kiss is the important signal to me)

(It's not the same when you kiss me
I feel a pain in my heart that won't let me
Believe it when you say that I'm the only one you love
Your lips tell a different story – there's another girl)

English translation

Lately, pleasant feelings somehow just pass me by quickly these days
I managed to fix my life that could be fixed, and finally arrived at you
But my words and feelings become just a little bit selfish when I say them
Time just seems to pass by somewhere on these empty days
And I get jealous wondering if that girl is happy

Something 'bout the kiss made me realize I was hurt
(Something 'bout the kiss that made me feel the hurt)
How do I go on like this? (How do I go on?)
Will I live on doing the same things again?
(I can tell the kiss is the important signal to me)
Even if you say you love me, and even if I think it's so
(Even if you tell me I love you and I wanna think it's true)
The kiss is an important signal after all
(Something 'bout the kiss is the important signal to me)

This isn't fake or artificial, I feel like I'm beginning to walk for the first time
Why were you so rough? You didn't have to decorate things so much...
The strength of your embrace isn't a measure of your feelings for me, but
Even so, I want you to wrap me up so tightly it hurts, so tightly my body breaks

Something 'bout the kiss made me realize I was hurt
(Something 'bout the kiss that made me feel the hurt)
How do I go on like this? (How do I go on?)
Will I live on doing the same things again?
(I can tell the kiss is the important signal to me)
Even if you say you love me, and even if I think it's so
(Even if you tell me I love you and I wanna think it's true)
The kiss is an important signal after all
(Something 'bout the kiss is the important signal to me)

(It's not the same when you kiss me
I feel a pain in my heart that won't let me
Believe it when you say that I'm the only one you love
Your lips tell a different story – there's another girl)
