English Translation

Now, I am breathing in air
Now, I live an ordinary life
Now, I am looking up above
Now, an airplane is flying
Now, wanting to chase that cloud
Now, I don't move, try as I might to run
Now, what's gonna happen when I'm standing still

'Cause what's "now" is empty
'Cause it's empty

The scent after it rains
I kinda feel like I'm almost gonna remember something
But that's a waste of time
Why won't I understand that?
I can only live in the present
Of course, only the future opens
I'll just move forward along that path
I decided to think that way

It's black, black, black, black, black
Black, blackness assails me

Back then,
So long ago, back then, it was a good time

I am being trapped by the past

Life, life, life,
such a thing was made perfect ages ago
I can be certain of it just by looking back
You, my status, now I've lost everything

Now, I am yawning
Now, I am getting ready while half-asleep
Now, I am looking down below
Now, I am reflected on a puddle
Now, I wish it could drown in it right here and there
Now, I don't care about what people think around me
Now, what's gonna happen when I'm standing still

'Cause what's "now" is empty
'Cause it's empty

It's black, black, black, black, black
Black, blackness assails me

Back then,
So long ago, back then, it was a good time

I am being trapped by the past

Popularity, popularity, popularity,
such a thing I'd already let go of
I can only appeal by being a sobbing mess
You, my dreams, now I've lost everything

Now, I am breathing in air
Now, I live an ordinary life
Now, I am looking up above
Now, the sunset is beautiful, isn't it?
Now, wanting to chase that cloud
Now, I don't move, try as I might to run
Now, what's gonna happen when I'm standing still

'Cause what's "now" is empty
'Cause it's empty

I'll die afterwards anyway

Life, life, life,
such a thing was made perfect ages ago
I can be certain of it just by looking back

I've hit my worst failure yet, haven't I?
The festivities have already passed me by
Just like the withered leaves dancing in the air
You as well as hope, I've lost everything now

Now, I am in low spirits
Now, I am breathing in air
Now, I am in low spirits
Now, standing on a sandy beach
Now, wanting to chase after those clouds
Now, running towards the wide sea
Now, I guess you've met the me you weren't able to stop
