Lyrics

mirai tozashita
mou owari sa subete ni kibou ga mienai
furareta sai no naka tojikomerareta

waa kyaa to sakebedo
matsu dake ja tasuke wa konai sa
kangaero koko de wa
daremo karemo derarenai

mukashi mita kanada no eiga de atta
ikareta hako de korosarete yuku dake

unmei no kawa nagare ima aragae
kizukazu iki houketa
kako wo mina moroi wara ni kaete
deguchi ni tsunagu made

issun no mushikera to warau yatsu wo
owarasero
kanashimi ni suwari kutsurogeru made
nageru saji mo motezu tada ikite iku dake da

mukashi mita tejina no hako no you da
shikakui yami no naka de ha wo matsu dake

unmei no kawa nagare mada aragae
kizukanu furi tooshita
kako no koto ago wo tsumami mitsume
kuchizuke dekiru made

zengen wo tekkai shi oto de yatsu wo
nagurasero
nikushimi wa yahari koko ni aru kara
nigeru koto mo dekizu mada ikite iku dake da

hora miro tobira ga hiraku you da
hikari ni tsutsumarete deru to dou da
hako ga tada tama ni natta dake da

unmei nomikomare subete norou
koto ni mo akiaki da na
baka ga shiiru rifujin wo hodoke
deguchi ga hikaridasu

unmei no kawa nagare ima aragae
kizukazu iki houketa
kako wo mina tsumugi nawa ni kaete
deguchi ni tsunagu made

isshou no setsunasa wo warai nagara
odorasero
kanashimi ni suwari kutsurogeru made

bokura itsumo hate naki kono orokasa no naka

English Translation

Our future’s closed off for good
It’s all over, there’s no hope in sight
Locked away inside a rolled die

Scream as we might
If we just wait, no one will come to the rescue
Just think, in this place
No one can escape

I saw this in a Canadian movie way back when
Just gonna get killed in this cube of insanity

The river of fate flows on — gotta resist the current now
Turn that unconscious daydream I’d been living
Those illusions of the past into fragile pieces of straw
Linking them ’til I find my way out

Those guys who laugh at us, calling us insignificant worms
We’ll finish them off
Sitting in my sorrow ’til I begin to relax
With not even a towel to throw in, I just keep on living

It’s like one of those magic cubes I saw way back when
Just waiting for the blade in this square darkness

The river of fate flows on — keep on resisting it
Feigning ignorance, I made my way through
Thinking of the past, I’d lift their chin and stare into their eyes
Pulling them in for a kiss

I take back what I said — I’ll take my music
And knock them down
Because hatred lingers here after all
Unable to run, I just keep on living

Hey, look — the door’s open
How about we step out into the light?
The cube just turned out to be a sphere

Engulfed by my fate, I cursed it all
Now, I even grew tired of that
Break free of this absurdity imposed on us by fools
The exit begins to glow

The river of fate flows on — gotta resist the current now
Turn that unconscious daydream I’d been living
Those illusions of the past into cords of rope
Linking them ’til I find my way out

While laughing off the brevity of life
Just let me dance
Sitting in my sorrow ’til I begin to relax

We’re always gonna be stuck in this endless absurdity
