Toa feat. Hatsune Miku - Regret (リグレット)

"You understand, right?"

Toa's songs are always so catchy yet sad, and this one is no exception.

Toa and the utaite nameless have an album coming out on November 25, so be sure to support them if you can!

Subbed video is below. The lyrics in the video were changed slightly to match the flow a bit better, but the meaning is the same.


I'm not 100% sure about the illustrator's name; I just went off of the name on his pixiv account.

Producer comment: "You understand, right?"

English lyrics:

Put them in order, put them in order
Your time, my time
Lock it, lock it up
You can’t see
Something like the future, right?

Let me turn around, let me expand
Your feelings, my expectations
After the rain I turn around
But it won’t reach you, huh?
You can’t see it, can you?

I’m just pulling you along, aren’t I?
Please wake up
Hey, “A little longer, a little more,”
How long will I keep crushing my feelings?

I want to know you
I want to touch you
But I can’t see you with this distance as it is
Getting close and passing by you
I can’t be loved like this, can I?

Things like meaning
Things like a reason
Even if you unnaturally line them up
I understand that these are things that can’t be changed

Chase after it, chase after it
Your time, my time
Getting close and keeping my distance
It’s all just disappointing lies

Lay it out, inlay it
I want to look at you
I want to forget you
Early afternoon, I turn around
This isn’t a dream, is it?
You’re not there anymore, are you?

If I’m disturbing you
Please hurry and notice
Hey, “A little longer, a little more,”
How long will I keep killing my heart?


I can’t say it, I can’t say it
Someone week like me isn’t needed, are they?
Lying, deceiving
Which is because I don’t want to get hurt?

It’s bye-bye today too
It’s bye-bye next time, too
Don’t look at me with those kind of eyes
I understand that there are things that can’t be changed, but…

The time that seemed like it would open was about to close
“A little bit more…a little bit…”
I won’t reach…it won’t reach…

I want to know you
I want to touch you
No matter how many times I moved forward, I struggled

Rewind things back to how they always are
I can’t be loved like this, can I?
Hey, destroy it
Then make it again
This distance will never change, will it?
You understand that there are things that we can’t return to, right?
…I understand…
