As If in the darkness - 白昼の空色 (Hakuchuu no Sorairo)

Lyrics: mar
Music: 有希(Yuuki)

Kanji: 白昼の空色
忘れた過去の傷跡には　触れる事を恐れて　心に鍵かけて
数えた指の感覚が　溶け合うように痛みの奥へと繋がっていく空色

錆び付いた時計の針　動き出す事を恐れて　また止まって
振り返る時の影を　透明な白昼の空　そっと感じて

信じた未来の栄光も　終わってしまえば只の灰に変わるけれど
閉ざした彼の心には　少しだけでいい
生きる強さを　生きる強さを　生きる強さを

また新しい　時代の流れに
すべて任せて　流れのまま行き着く先は

風に乗って
水に溶けて
海へ流れて
空に還ろう
永遠に

錆び付いた時計の針　動き出す事を恐れて　また止まって
振り返る時の影を　透明な白昼の空　そっと感じて

錆び付いた時計の針　動き出す事を恐れて　また止まって
振り返る時の影を　透明な白昼の空　そっと感じて

Translation: Midday's Sky Blue
Afraid of touch, a scar of bygone forgotten days locks itself in the heart
Melting together, the touch of those counted fingers, is a sky blue connecting to the depths of pain[1]

The rust-covered hand of a clock comes to a stop again, afraid of starting to move
Feeling gently, the shadow of time that looks back, in a transparent midday’s sky

If the glory of a believed future also ends, it turns into mere ashes, however
In the locked up heart of his, just a little is fine
For the strength to live, for the strength to live, for the strength to live[2]

Again, in the flow of a new age
Leave everything to it, the state of flow where it arrives at

Ride upon the winds
Dissolve into water
Flow towards the ocean
And return[3] to the sky
Eternally

The rust-covered hand of a clock comes to a stop again, afraid of starting to move
Feeling gently, the shadow of time that looks back, in a transparent midday’s sky

The rust-covered hand of a clock comes to a stop again, afraid of starting to move
Feeling gently, the shadow of time that looks back, in a transparent midday’s sky

Notes:
Just clarifying that the "sky blue" in the title refers to the color, and not the blue sky.
[1] I am not really sure if I translated this whole line correctly.
[2] Some meaning is lost in translation. The phrase indicates that something wants to be done with "the strength to live", but it doesn't clarify what. One way to look at it is that whatever is done with "the strength to live" is left up to the person itself.
[3] The word used here is "還る"(kaeru), which is slightly different from the common "帰る"(kaeru) that refers to "returning back to one's home". The former kaeru refers to returning back to its origin or original form.
