Sometimes I feel that even in a pretty homogenous society like Japan, we're all separated by transparent layers of social class or demography. People we interact with in our daily lives are usually those who belong to the same demography as we do. Otherwise would be rare. That sometimes causes a trouble. When you move up to a different layer or demography of the society, by 'upgrading' yourself, you'd often find yourself uncomfortable with those people around you who you used to get along with.
Half A Person (The Smiths)
I've spent six years on your trail
Six long years
On your trail
Call me morbid, call me pale
I've spent six years on your trail
Six full years of my life on your trail
And if you have five seconds to spare
Then I'll tell you the story of my life
Sixteen, clumsy and shy
I went to London and I
I booked myself in at the Y.W.C.A
I said "I like it here, can I stay?
I like it here, can I stay?
Do you have a vacancy
For a Back-scrubber?"
She was left behind, and sour
And she wrote to me, equally dour
She said "In the days when you were
Hopelessly poor
I just liked you more"
And if you have five seconds to spare
Then I'll tell you the story of my life
Sixteen, clumsy and shy
I went to London and I
I booked myself in at the Y.W.C.A
I said "I like it here, can I stay?
I like it here, can I stay?
And do you have a vacancy
For a Back-scrubber?"
Call me morbid, call me pale
I've spent too long on your trail
Far too long
Chasing your tail
Oh
And if you have five seconds to spare
Then I'll tell you the story of my life
Sixteen, clumsy and shy
That's the story of my life
Sixteen, clumsy and shy
The story of my life
That's the story of my life
That's the story of my life
That's the story of my life
The story of my life
That's the story of my life
That's the story of my life
That's the story of my life
That's the story of my life
That's the story of my life
That's the story
まるで病気をしてるみたいに
青白い顔してるって
そんな風に言えばいい
だってお前を追いかけて
6年間も経ったんだ
その長い6年を
お前のことを追っかけて
ずっと過ごしてきたんだよ
青白い顔してるって
そんな風に言えばいい
だってお前を追いかけて
6年間も経ったんだ
丸々お前を追っかけて
ずっと過ごしてきたんだよ
ほんの5秒の間だけ
取り残されてひねくれて
青白い顔してるって
そんな風に言えばいい
お前のことを追いかけて
時間を使い過ぎたよな
お前のことを追っかけて
(余談)
