Ara Ara Sayonara

[Verse 1]
Nanda yo
You call me crazy
Coffee at noon
But you’re three days late
Lipstick stain on my melon soda
You laugh it off like it’s all just fate
[Pre-Chorus]
You say “umai” to every little thing
Cheap sweet words like a vending drink
I paid my coins till the slot ran dry
Now I’m done
Watch me say goodbye (hey!)
[Chorus]
Ara ara
Sayonara
I’m too loud for your small drama
Snap that pic
It lasts much longer
I walk out and my steps sound stronger
Ara ara
Sayonara
You had heaven
Now it’s karma
Hands up high as I leave this bar
Ara ara
Sayonara
[Verse 2]
Leather boots on the neon stairway
I hear you shout from the smoking floor
“Baby come back”—that broken replay
But my heart already closed that door
[Pre-Chorus]
You say “umai” like you learned one trick
Same old line
Makes me feel so sick
I’ve got friends
I’ve got louder songs
You’re a verse I erased
Moved on (oh yeah)
[Chorus]
Ara ara
Sayonara
I’m too loud for your small drama
Snap that pic
It lasts much longer
I walk out and my steps sound stronger
Ara ara
Sayonara
You had heaven
Now it’s karma
Hands up high as I leave this bar
Ara ara
Sayonara
[Bridge]
Nanda
Nanda
Nanda yo
Thought I’d break if I let you go
But I dance in the midnight rain
Heavy sound washing off your name
[Chorus]
Ara ara
Sayonara
I’m too bright for your cheap drama
Raise my glass to a new mañana
Laughing big ‘cause I dodged that trauma
Ara ara
Sayonara
I look back just to say “arigato”
For the pain that became my star
Ara ara
Sayonara
