“Sugar, Lies, and a Dash of Me”


Lyrics & composition: Sakaki Oshiro (cv. Umehara Yuichiro)

Singer: Miyazono Tomoe (cv. Hirose Yuya)


Listen to the title on YouTube.


“It’s… It’s not that I like you or anything…”

…I say, lying.


This tooth-rotting delight

melts away with a first love's beats

into a dizzying syrup that makes my head light.

Today again, I’ll have sugar, lies, and a dash of me.


On my way home that Friday, your sobs reached my way

Uncharacteristic empathy pulling my heartstrings, I shoved my usual grumpy attitude deep in my jeans.

Though the brooding guy act don't charm anymore,

that I’ve been told to be kinder to girls more,

I couldn’t greet you without my icy front.


So if, perhaps, you didn't like me so

for my whole life, I’ll never let it go—

but that you can't see, beneath my poker face,

where a thousand confessions caught in my throat battle for first place.


Though it’s just our first date

I already want to give you the world,

I'll remind you daily how cute you can be.

But then you flash that charming smile at me

and words lose their way,

tying my tongue with three magic words I can't say.

So forgive me for the liar I am again today.
