sakebi tsuzukero

English Translation

Keep on shouting out
your unwavering wish any number of times
You're here, falling apart,
but keep on believing

Reality is full of ambiguity,
testing you, you see
Even wrapped in the veil of pretention
you can never fake the real you

Sorrow and suffering are always
like magic that brings out strength
Even confusion and hesitation
should have meanings

Keep on shouting out
your unwavering wish any number of times
Even if you're falling apart and you're losing something 
wow wow  Know that you're not alone

Even the countless pains and this scar
Will be embraced and loved
wow wow  I believe
Keep on moving to your destiny and beyond

Drifting on this life full of regrets
I pretended not knowing them
As if to take back your wildest dreams,
take a step into the unknown

Hurt and hurting, time and time again,
we've reached out each other's hands
Though apart and not reaching,
I'm sure we can connect

Keep on holding yourself up high,
without any doubt, in the middle of the world
And prove that you can shine
wow wow  Know that you're not alone

Even the unreachable ideal and this high wall
Will be overcome and achieved
wow wow I believe
The revolution will never end, keep on making chapters

Merciless fate repeats itself
But still we've kept on running
In the dark, we looked up
and there were countless stars shining down on us

Keep on shouting out
your unwavering wish any number of times
Even if you're falling apart and you're losing something
wow wow know that you're not alone

Even the countless pain and this scar
Will be embraced and loved
wow wow  I believe
Keep on moving to your destiny and beyond and keep on believing
