Lyrics

te ni shita mono igai ga kirei ni mieta
“douse konna mon ka” ga, kuchiguse datta

usura warai bakka ga tokui ni natta
kedo ichiban waraeru no wa kono puraido da

isshou kenmei nanka zenbu muda dattan da
aa mou iya ni natta
“nigetakunai” tte kikoeta, kore wa boku no koe?

ikkai jukkai hyakkai senkai chousen wo tsuzukeru yo
mada tarinai tte omotteru yamanai ame no naka
zutto kangaete kangaete kangaete mitsukedase
boku dake no kassouro wo shoumei shitain da yo na, sou darou? sou darou?

aseri agaru shinpakusuu ni uso tsuku you ni
jibun wo ochitsukeru hiniku wa iranai
sore wo kouyoukan ni okikaetarasa
kyou mo mata idomu beki haadoru ga hora mieta darou?

kattou no sukima de sabinai seimei wo hineri daseru ka
denai no nara tokku ni akirameteru yo

konshin no shinnen de uta tatte todoku wake janai
subarashii kurai bokura no genjitsu wa zankoku da
aimai wo kezuritotte togarasete mata utatte
akirameru riyuu nara kako ni sutete kita

aishitetai yo aishitetai yo
tachidomaru tabi ni susumitagaru ashi wo
mada ikou motto ikou

chiisakute tayorinakute fuantei na hohaba ga
tsunagatte uta ni naru boku wo kiite kure!

ikkai jukkai hyakkai senkai chousen wo tsuzukeru yo
mada tarinai tte omotteru yamanai ame no naka
zutto kangaete kangaete kangaete mitsukedase
boku dake no eikouro wo shoumei shitain da yo na
moshi tadoritduita nara hokotte ii ka na

English Translation

The grass was always greener on the other side
“That’s life,” I always said to myself, unsatisfied

My trademark was a cynical smile dripping with snide
But the most laughable thing of all was my empty pride

Nothing went my way, no matter how hard I tried
I hated it all, my hopes died
“I don’t wanna run away,” a voice cried. Are those my words, do I feel that way?

I’ll give it one more go and then many more
I still don’t feel content, this isn’t enough, even as the rain wears me down
I’ll give it one more thought and so many more
I need to show that there’s a runway ready for my takeoff. Don’t you think so? Don’t you think so?

As I start to lose it, my heart begins to race
There’s no need for pessimism, no need to lie to my face
I can just call it a runner’s high
Cause there are more hurdles to clear. Don’t you see them now?

During these trials and tribulations, can I find my own voice? Can I find my battle cry?
If I couldn’t, I would’ve given up a long time ago

Just singing with passion won’t get my message across
Reality is a beautiful and cruel mistress
So I cut down all the hesitation and start to sing again
‘Cause I left all the reasons telling me to give up back in my past

I want to keep loving, I want to keep loving
Every time I come to a stop, my feet urge me to move
Take one more step, keep going on

The strides I make are tiny and lack all confidence
But they come together to form my song, so hear me now!

I’ll give it one more go and then many more
I still don’t feel content, this isn’t enough, even as the rain wears me down
I’ll give it one more thought and so many more
I want to show that there’s a walk of fame ready for my name
And maybe once I get there I can love myself a little more
