[English]

Knowing loneliness means knowing love

My senses awaken to save you

And in doing so, I save myself too

After all, we are all human, after all

Beyond the words "I love you"

I am not alone anymore

Let's clear the darkness with an upbeat rhythm

Holding your words close to my heart, yeah

...

By the time the wounds in my heart start to ache

What are we saving by making sacrifices?

I'm sure everything happens for a reason

And my sense of rightness lies right here

Taking a breath, staying conscious

I believe there is a meaning

To the terrible pain of being alive

At the same time, I'm fighting an endless sense of helplessness again today

Surprise me with something unexpected

I'll just keep updating who I am

Singing in the rain, swinging to the beat

Holding your words close to my heart

...

Human dreams wrapped in a cocoon

Shaking hands with hope

Looking in the mirror once more

At a brand new me

Beyond the words "I love you"

I am not alone anymore

Let's clear the strife with an upbeat rhythm

Holding your words close to my heart

Surprise me with something unexpected

I'll just keep updating who I am

Singing in the rain, swinging to the beat

Holding your words close to my heart

Beyond the words "I love you" (ooh-ooh)

I am not alone anymore

...

[Japanese]

孤独を知って 愛を知る

五感働いて 君を救う

それはつまり 僕も救う

結局僕らは 人と人

I love youの先へ

僕はもう 独りじゃないね

Upbeatで闇を晴らして

あなたの言葉を胸に抱いて yeah

もう胸の傷が痛む頃

犠牲を払って 何を救う？

どれもがきっと 必然で

僕の正しさはここにある

息をして 意識をして

生きることのひどい痛みには

意味があると信じてる

と同時にやるせない何かと 今日も戦ってる

サプライズで驚かせて

僕は僕を ただ更新して

雨に唄って スイングをして

あなたの言葉を胸に抱いて

繭に包まれた人の夢

希望とシェイクハンドして

鏡を見つめ直して

真新しい自分

I love youの先へ

僕はもう 独りじゃないね

Upbeatで闘を晴らして

あなたの言葉を胸に抱いて

サプライズで驚かせて

僕は僕を ただ更新して

雨に唄って スイングをして

あなたの言葉を胸に抱いて

I love youの先へ (ooh-ooh)

僕はもう 独りじゃないね
