[English]

Tonight we celebrate the hero!!

Blocking our No-face, destroying with insane KIDS

Dislike lies? Collapse? Dropping our daily grind

Sweet body heat, the scent rising up

It’s tempting, flavor flavor flavor

Just wanna hold your hands

Hey everyone! Let’s go back to zero!

Insane, hey kids!! Shine a light on yesterday that’s closed off, a restless urge

Insane, hey kids!! Searching for a place we can't return to

Insane, hey kids!! Let’s blow away silly egos, meaningless conflicts

Feeling okay being crazy? Won’t you say my name?

Are you ready? I respect the hero!!

Won’t you ring it? The hilarious distortion

Now we're accomplices, even the heavens, see

Who’s the master calling out my favorite name!

Now, forever, ever, ever

Insane, hey kids!! Illuminate yesterday that’s shut away, an unstoppable urge

Insane, hey kids!! Searching for a place we can't go back to

Insane, hey kids!! Blow away stupid egos, meaningless wars

Feeling okay being crazy? Won’t you say my name?

Just wanna hold your hands

Insane, hey kids!! The times are changing, endless impatience

Insane, hey kids!! You and I, meant to meet

Cried in madness, I won’t forget, searching for love, wanting to connect forever

Insane, hey kids!! Even so, is the future just fleeting?

Just wanna hold your hands

I swear I respect the hero!!

[Japanese]

“Tonight We honor the hero!!”

塞ぐNO面に 壊す狂乱KIDS

嘘キライ？崩壊？日々を投下して

甘い体温の蜜 匂い立って

ソソるFlavor Flavor Flavor

Just wanna hold your hands

“Hey people! Let’s go back to zero!”

狂って Hey kids!! 閉ざした昨日を照らして 行き場ない衝動

狂って Hey kids!! 戻れない場所を探して

狂って Hey kids!! くだらないエゴを飛ばして 意味の無い抗争

狂って平気? 私の名前を吐かないか？

“Are you ready? I respect the hero!!”

鳴らさないの？ 滑稽なディストーション

今や共犯さ 天の存在もほら

“Who is the master who calls my favorite name!”

いざ Forever ever ever

狂って Hey kids!! 閉ざした昨日を照らして 行き場ない衝動

狂って Hey kids!! 戻れない場所を探して

狂って Hey kids!! くだらないエゴを飛ばして 意味の無い抗争

狂って平気? 私の名前を吐かないか?

Just wanna hold your hands

狂って Hey kids!! 次第に時代は変わって 終わらない焦燥

狂って Hey kids!! 出会うはずだったあなたと

狂って泣いた 忘れない 愛を探して 繋ぎたいずっと

狂って Hey kids!!それでも未来は儚いか？

Just wanna hold your hands

“I swear I respect the hero!!”
