Lyrics & Translation
I’m running through this nameless now
Reaching out to that crescent moon
La la la, la la la, I want to know you
Even if I welcome a timid morning without a voice, no matter how many times
The moment the umbilical cord was cut with a snap
It feels like I’ve lost my way in the world
If the scenery reflected in my eyes laughs sadly
Close your eyes without fear and take a look
Come on, everyone, this way, to where the drums are sounding
Come on, stamp your heels, to where your heart dances
Come on, jump onto the mirage, mastering this upside-down world
La la la, la la la, it won’t stop
A curse wishing to know love
Transcending time, from morning to night
La la la, la la la, I want to know you
So that I don’t miss a single thing, time won’t wait for anyone
A cruel fate, an inescapable destiny
Without a moment to think, a sandstorm rushes in
Even if I can’t see ahead, I want to believe in you
If I step forward without fear
Come on, everyone, this way, to where the drums are sounding
Come on, stamp your heels, to where your heart dances
Come on, everyone, this way, to where the heartbeat is sounding
Come on, stamp your heels, to where your heart dances
Come on, jump onto the flying whale, dance through this upside-down world
La la la, la la la, no one knows
I’m running through this nameless now
Reaching out to that crescent moon
La la la, la la la, I want to know you
Even if I welcome a timid morning without a voice
No matter how many times
If it’s a dream, don’t wake me up, because reality is just too harsh
Time won’t wait for anyone
