HELLO

HELLO

アンバランスなBGM 歌い出した僕ら

The unbalanced BGM, we started to sing

それだけの事が嬉しいのは

Just that alone makes me happy

お世辞も背伸びも要らないただの僕らで

No need for flattery or pretense, just us as we are

そのままでいいって　信じられたから

I could believe that it’s okay to be just like this

あのビルの屋上見下ろす

Looking down from the rooftop of that building

街中の景色でも敵いやしない感動

Even the cityscape doesn’t diminish the emotion

作ろう君と産声のようなハーモニーを

Let’s create a harmony like a newborn’s cry together

HELLO 360度 僕らを包むこの世のBeautiful

HELLO, this world’s beautiful, wrapping us in 360 degrees

思わず忘れたよ　無傷で生きるバリアを張ってたってことを

I accidentally forgot that I was putting up a barrier to live unscathed

そんなものもう必要ないと　気付かせてくれた僕のヒーロー

My hero made me realize that I don’t need such things anymore

笑い合えただけで どうにもならないほど溢れるありがとう

Just being able to laugh together fills me with gratitude beyond measure

それぞれの迷路の見取り図を僕ら 互いの掌に委ね合ってさ

We entrust the blueprints of our respective mazes to each other’s palms

人生に迷う度に　不安や幸せの位置を見失わないよう　確認しようよ

Every time I get lost in life, let’s check so we don’t lose sight of where anxiety and happiness are

インスタントの友情　綻ぶ　迫りくる本性　狂ってく感情

Instant friendships unravel, the approaching true nature, emotions going wild

傷を癒そう　孤独に飲まれてしまう前に

Let’s heal the wounds before being consumed by loneliness

窓から差し込む太陽　そんな風に君を暖めるよ

The sunlight streaming through the window will warm you like that

後ろ指をさされ　正気の沙汰でないと　揶揄されたとしても

Even if I’m pointed at from behind and mocked for being out of my mind

疑心暗鬼で凍てつく心を　溶かし切ったら続きを話すよ

Once I melt the frozen heart filled with suspicion, I’ll continue the story

ありふれた言葉じゃ　もう表せないほどに猛る思いを

Feelings that can’t be expressed with ordinary words are raging

あのビルの屋上見下ろす街中の景色は１つの模様　さあ

The cityscape I see from the rooftop of that building is one pattern, so

探ろう君と　得体の知れない世界を　歩いてこう

Let’s explore together, walking through this unknown world

HELLO 360度　僕らを包むこの世のBeautiful

HELLO, this world’s beautiful, wrapping us in 360 degrees

思わず忘れたよ　無傷で生きるバリアを張ってたってことを

I accidentally forgot that I was putting up a barrier to live unscathed

決まり文句も座右の銘も　何も持ってない素朴なヒーロー

A simple hero with no catchphrases or mottos

笑い合えただけで　どんな場所へも肩を並べて行けるよ

Just being able to laugh together, we can walk side by side anywhere

HELLO HELLO HELLO

HELLO, HELLO, HELLO

何度でも言うよHELLO

I’ll say HELLO as many times as it takes
