Lyrics & Translation
Is this normal?
I'm searching for the truth
Inside a black box
Something chilly is on my back
Afraid of someone's words
I kept telling lies
Because I can't see anything
There's nothing else to rely on
The meaning of being born
I want to keep questioning
These overflowing feelings
God, you're heartless
Every day is a repetition
What's with the future I aimed for?
Worrying or being philosophical
This kind of me is impossible
Live desperately
Losing sight of the future I aimed for
Crying or thinking
That kind of me, as I am
Endless forward progress
Run through these unrepeatable days
My true feelings
Are so commonplace
I was hiding the truth
This white room always
Feels like I'm being watched, unsettling
Being exposed itself is scary
What do I believe in?
If I don't feel anything
I wouldn't feel any pain
The meaning of being born
I want to keep questioning
These overflowing feelings
God, you're heartless
Every day is a repetition
What's with the future I aimed for?
Worrying or being philosophical
This kind of me is impossible
Live desperately
Losing sight of the future I aimed for
Crying or thinking
That kind of me, as I am
Endless forward progress
Run through these unrepeatable days
Saying only nice things
Is pointless and uncool
Words I don't say much
I am me
What's with the future I aimed for?
Worrying or being philosophical
This kind of me is impossible
Live desperately
Losing sight of the future I aimed for
Crying or thinking
That kind of me, as I am
Endless forward progress
Run through these unrepeatable days
