[English]

Alone

In the corner of my room

Just lost in my thoughts

If only

It's just a fantasy

If someone hears, they’d laugh

Is it okay to be the same?

Ordinary things

Even if I chase after them, I wonder if I can reach

If there's no guarantee

I want to be honest

Even though I only feel uncertain

If you give me a like

If you give me a like

It’s so embarrassing

I can't stay still

I don't want to leave

With all my might

I want to shine bright

Even if not beside you

In the dark

Deep in the corner of my room

Just lost in my thoughts

If only

It's just a fantasy

If someone hears, they'd laugh

Is it okay to be the same?

Ordinary things

Even if I chase after them, can I reach?

If there’s no guarantee

I want to be honest

Even though I feel nothing but anxiety

If you give me a like

If you give me a like

It’s so embarrassing

I can't stay still

I don't want to get hurt

My best effort

Is so weak

More than everyone thinks

I'll deliver it in an instant

Shaking at first sight

If feelings flow too freely, it becomes a black history

Spark-filled youth

And the reality of love

Let’s start something wonderful

[Japanese]

ひとり

部屋の隅の方で

ただ物思いにふけてる

もしも

みたいな空想さ

人が聞けば笑い話

同じでいいの？

ありふれたものを

追い求めても届くって

保証がないなら

素直になりたい

不安しかないけど

きみがいいねくれたら

きみがいいねくれたら

みっともない

じっとしていれないの

離れたくない

ボクのせいいっぱいの

キラキラしたいよ

隣じゃなくても

暗い

部屋の隅の奥で

ただ物思いにふけてる

もしも

みたいな空想さ

人が聞けば笑い話

同じでいいの？

ありふれたものを

追い求めても届くって

保証がないなら

素直になりたい

不安しかないけど

きみがいいねくれたら

きみがいいねくれたら

みっともない

じっとしていれないの

傷つきたくない

ボクのせいいっぱいは

弱い弱い

みんなが思うよりも

あっという間にお届け

パッと見て震えてる

タイムリーな気持ち溢れすぎたら黒歴史

火花散る青春と

恋愛のリアリティー

素晴らしい事を始めよう
