zasetsu mamire ryuukou ni magire shiawase na furi wo shite utau
motto hashire to ii kikashite mubou ni mo sotto kazakami e

“yama ari tani ari gake ari” chiri wa tsumotteku
hateshinai tabi no tochuu de machi no hazure ni tachi yoru

“ikiteru dake de kanashii to omou no wa watashi dake na no?” to

English Translation

Full of failure, covered in trend, I pretend to be happy and sing
I tell myself to run further and arrive recklessly and silently at the windward
I take a peek at the path I came, no more time to spare, surrounded by enemies, one game following the entry
Life has its ups and downs and even cliffs. The dust is piling up
In the middle of an endless journey, I stop by the edge of the town
I gently throw out my tired legs and lie down to sleep, then a shallow sleep repeats
Thinking about that same profile and the those same words over and over again
Am I the only one who feels sad just to be alive?

Cigarette smoke dances in the air, then sadly vanishes

When you were a young child without power,
you've probably seen sorrows you shouldn't have seen
And now you spend your time holding back tears that you shouldn't be holding back
We're not strong enough to live only with the truth
We're not that strong, and we don't have to be so strong
Okay?

I open my eyelids, and the world is in spring; I walk through the cherry blossom-colored wind
I wonder if you were in this field of canola flowers on the way to faraway places
While I searched for the white flutter of the birds in the sky,
I'm sure you listened to the earth and searched for the black footsteps of the ants

Taking off the clown-like mask and standing on a hill forgotten by the sun

I breathe deeply under the moonlight
In a world without the sound of plates breaking or yelling
We can survive without the warmth
But it's not enough for us just to be alive

The budding earth, the thick trunks, the disappearing rainbows, the passing days,
the Spica in the night sky and the wonders of the seasons - they have all taught us while we keep searching for the truth

No matter how far we travel
Life begins with a baby who cries out to live and be loved
The reason why we head for somewhere other than here is
to understand that there is no answer somewhere that isn't in your mind
