[English]

Giga

Breathless on a warm, boring night street

Mellow, mellow, mellow

Let’s ignore the rules and go, ha-ha

So burn my, burn my heart

Uh, uh, uh, feels like I’m being understood

Uh, uh, uh, can I do this or not, get down now

Uh, uh, uh, ah-ah

I probably can't stay here pretending to be special anymore

Nothing I can do about it

Yeah, a question that’s almost impossible

Ha, existence? Fiction?

You make me feel down, why’s that?

I know the way

Just wishing won’t make it come true

No matter how messed up things get, nothing changes

Well then, take this, awaken

Find the way

Waiting for the light, sweet trap of a feeling

Tired of hearing the wrong disses

Sure, take me higher, wherever I can go

How about it? Turning back is impossible, huh?

You already know that, don’t you?

Uh, uh, uh, feels like I’m being understood

Uh, uh, uh, can I do this or not, get down now

Uh, uh, uh, ah-ah

I can’t stay sharp forever anymore

Whose fault is that?

Let’s draw endless dreams, keep dreaming

Wished for and desired, heading beyond that

Let’s go beyond the endless night, break through

Right now, toward the burning other side

Haha, honestly, I don’t get it

Even without a plan, just go for it! And

I can’t deny the feeling of fate

Jump, roar, chase with your eyes

Always number one

Move out of the way, shake things up fast

Attack, indulge in the sweet moments, ride on now

Yeah, yeah

Shake it up, still going strong

Go beyond the way!

Feeling stuck, searching for sneaky words

Mellow, mellow, mellow

I am me, sharpening myself

Follow your instincts and go

Holla, "We are the winners!"

So burn my, burn my heart

Giga

Let's draw endless dreams, keep dreaming

Heading beyond what we wished and desired

Let’s go past the endless night, break through

Right now, toward the burning other side

Uh, uh, uh, about to burst

Chasing and matching, our backs burning hot

Uh, uh, uh, about to burst

Forever unceasing, beyond the limit

Ha, ready steady?

Yeah, get out the way

...

[Japanese]

(Giga)

息つまるばかりで 温い退屈な夜道で

(Mellow, mellow, mellow)

ルールは無視で行きたいね ha-ha

So burn my, burn my heart

Uh, uh, uh 悟られそう

Uh, uh, uh 可か不可 get down now

Uh, uh, uh, ah-ah

もうきっと 優等ぶった"I"じゃ居られないくらい

どうしようもない

Yeah 無理目のクエスチョン

Ha 実存？ フィクション？

You make me サゲなのなんで？

I know the way

願ってるばっかじゃ叶わない

めちゃくちゃにされたって変わらない

まあね 喰らえ 覚醒

Find the way

待ってライトあびる感覚甘い罠

見当違いdisも聞き飽きたわ

そりゃねいけるところまでtake me higher

どう？ Turning back無理って

とっくに分かってんでしょ

Uh, uh, uh 悟られそう

Uh, uh, uh 可か不可 get down now

Uh, uh, uh, ah-ah

もうずっとしゃんと居られないや

それは誰のせい？

終わらない夢を描こう 描いて

願ったまま欲しがった その先へ

終わらない夜を超えていこう 超えていこう

このまま 焦がれた向こう側へ

はあぶっちゃけ解せないや

勝算なくても行っちゃえ！とか

運命感じる感受性は否めない

跳べ 吠え 目で 追って

いつでも number one

そこどけ 速攻揺らせ

攻め 甘美な時 ride on now

Yeah, yeah

Shake it up まだまだ

Go beyond the way!

行き詰まるばかりで ずるい言葉を探して

(Mellow, mellow, mellow)

I am me 研ぎ澄まし

本能に従って 行け

Holla, "We are the winners!"

So burn my, burn my heart

(Giga)

終わらない夢を描こう 描いて

願ったまま欲しがった その先へ

終わらない夜を超えていこう 超えていこう

このまま 焦がれた向こう側へ

Uh, uh, uh 張り裂けそう

追いかけて合わせた背が熱くて

Uh, uh, uh 張り裂けそう

もう一生鳴り止まない 限界の向こう側へ

Ha, ready steady?

Yeah, get out the way
