Lyrics

tsunagatte itai tte shinjirareru kotoba
datte mou kinou no bokura ni osaraba
aoi haru wo sugoshita tooi inazuma

satto naite mae dake wo muketara
kitto donna ni raku ni nareteitarou na
kono kokoro wo yurashita ichiru no nozomi wa

nai mono nedari wa yameta mi kansei ningen
subarashiki sekai dake ga kotae wo nigitteru

akiramete shimau hodo kono saki takusan no
koukai ga kimi wo matteru kedo
mounai mayoi wa shinai yo
kono kizu mo itoshiku omoete shimau hodo
kasanete shimau yo bukakkou na manma de ii kara
hashire sono hohaba de hashire koe todorokasete kure
kitai to fuan wo onaji kurai dakishimete
kimi to ima wo tsumugu mirai terashite

kao mo namae mo shiranai boku tachi ga
tatta hitotsu no oto wo kakinarasu
itazura mitai na kiseki no you na setsuna

atto iu ma ni nagareru toki ga
ari no mama de ari tsuzukeru kowasa ga
ushinatta jikan wa torimodosenai keredo

kako wo furikaette bakari ja naitatte iin da
kuyashisa to itami dake ga kimi wo koutei suru kara

otona ni nattara wasurete shimau no
kimi to no yakusoku wo shita basho wa
mou nai oboete itai yo
omoide mo itoshiku omoete shimau hodo
kasanete shimau yo bukakkou na manma de ii kara
sono koe wa doko made mo narihibiite

tashika na riyuu wo daite koko made kitan da
mada owaranai tabiji nan da
itsu shika omoi wa katachi ni naru kono masshiro ni somaru asa
wasurerarenai mama dakara

akiramete shimau hodo kono saki takusan no
mou nai mayoi wa shinai yo
kakegae no nai mono afurete shimau yo
kotae wa kimi no sono te no naka ni
hanasanaide monogatari wa ippo mae e

akiramete shimau hodo kono saki takusan no
koukai ga kimi wo matteru kedo
mou nai mayoi wa shinai yo
kono kizu mo itoshiku omoete shimau hodo
kasanete shimau yo bukakkou na manma de ii kara
hashire sono hohaba de hashire koe todorokasete kure
kitai to fuan wo onaji kurai dakishimete
kimi to ima wo tsumugu mirai terashite

English Translation

“I want to stay connected” words I can believe
I mean look, we’re bidding farewell to the people we were yesterday
We spent our spring youth, lightning in the distance

If I just cried my tears and looked forward
Who knows how much lighter I’d feel?
A single wish shakes this heart of mine

I’ve stopped asking for too much, I’m incomplete
This wonderful world is the only thing that holds my answer

There are regrets so painful you’ll want to give up
Waiting for you in the future
No more, I won’t hesitate
They’ll come together in a way
That you’ll come to treasure these scars
It’s okay to be a little awkward
(So just run) take it in your stride (run) let your voice roar
Embrace your excitement and anxiety all the same
Take the future we’re about to weave and set it alight

We don’t even know our faces or names
But we come together to play a single sound
It’s a moment akin to a playful miracle

Time that goes by in an instant
And a fear of stagnating in life
Won’t bring back the time we’ve lost

But if you’re just going to look back on the past, it’s okay to cry
Because that frustration and pain will only affirm you

We forget when we become adults
The places where we made our promises
They’re gone now, I want to remember
They’ll come together in a way
That’ll make me me want to treasure my memories
It’s okay to be a little awkward
So let that voice of yours echo far and beyond

We got this far holding our sound motivations close
This journey isn’t over yet
Our feelings will one day take form – I’ll never be able to forget
This morning, dyed in pure white, so

So painful you’ll want to give up, waiting for you in the future
No more, I won’t hesitate
You’ll overflow with irreplaceable things you’ll hold dear
The answer is in your hands
Don’t let go of it, the story moves one step forward

There are regrets so painful you’ll want to give up
Waiting for you in the future
No more, I won’t hesitate
They’ll come together in a way
That you’ll come to treasure these scars
It’s okay to be a little awkward
(So just run) take it in your stride (run) let your voice roar
Embrace your excitement and anxiety all the same
Take the future we’re about to weave and set it alight
