Lyrics

kyou mo iitai koto wo iezu ni mata fukou ni nagasareru
kimi dake janai yo hito ni kizukatte yasashisa ga afureteru yo
jibun no ishi ga yowai kara "iya" to iezu hi ga sugiru
kimi dake janai yo shinpai iranai yo
jibun wo aishite ii kyoka wo ageru yo

tanomarete zenbu "ii yo" tte fueru sutoresu nayami ni yotte
iron'na hito to kakawatte damasarete uragirarete hitori ni natte
jibun jishin ga waruin janakute mawari ga kizukasete nai dake
"sukoshi dake demo waratte ikite ii" tte koto wo anata ga kizukeru you ni
utai tsuzukeru shi sakebi tsuzukeru shiawase wakeru inochi datte sasageru
daisuki yue aishiteru sekai de hitori dake no "anata" e
jamana basei wa hitsuyou nante nai zutto mushi wo shite okou
shiawase ni nari urami wo fun'iki de boko shite ikou
jibun wo semeru no wa owari da yo hora, hayaku issho ni asobou

kyou mo iitai koto wo iezu ni mata fukou ni nagasareru
kimi dake janai yo hito ni kizukatte yasashisa ga afureteru yo
jibun no ishi ga yowai kara "iya" to iezu hi ga sugiru
kimi dake janai yo shinpai iranai yo
jibun wo aishite ii kyoka wo ageru yo

English Translation

Again, couldn't say what I wanted to say today. Down the stream of depression.
You're not alone. You're full of kindness and care about others.
Not a determined person. Living a life that couldn't even say "I don't want it".
You're not alone. No need to worry about it.
I'll bring you your license to love yourself.

Whenever others asked for anything, "Ok, sure". Stress increased and got drunk because of nervousness.
Tried to be involved with different kinds of people. It ends in lies and betrayal, returns alone.
Not doing anything wrong. Just don't want people around me to notice.
"Want to live a life where I can smile." I hope you will notice it soon or later.
I'll Keep singing and screaming. Share my happiness with you. Even devote my life to you.
I'll do it for you because I love you, you're unique and irreplaceable.
We don't need those annoying swears in our life. Let's just ignore them.
Gain happiness, beat hatred with your euphoria atmosphere.
No need to blame yourself anymore. Hey, let's have fun together.

Again, couldn't say what I wanted to say today. Down the stream of depression.
You're not alone. You're full of kindness and care about others.
Not a determined person. Living a life that couldn't even say "I don't want it".
You're not alone. No need to worry about it.
I'll bring you your license to love yourself.
