[English]

There is no freedom here anymore

I don't want to repeat this pain...

night & day

Even when it rains, I keep running

Until I reach the place where light shines through

oh, I will survive

A clear heart and guilt

uh, even sadness

Forever

I will keep fighting against this fate…

Don't wanna cry no more...

Let's escape from here

Don't wanna hurt no more...

Until I can grasp my freedom

It's still a bit too early to give up

Don't wanna cry no more...

oh, just flowing along

Even living like this is on my mind... yeah...

The path of love…

Even though we loved, we hurt each other…

I don't want to repeat this anymore

I won't look back

I want to be strong

No matter how much I'm tossed around

uh, this feeling

is unwavering

Because I've already decided in my heart

Don't wanna cry no more...

Let's escape from here

Don't wanna hurt no more...

Until I can grasp my freedom

It's still a bit too early to give up

Don't wanna cry no more...

No matter how hard the rain falls

I have something to protect now, I’m never gonna let go...

Even if I raise justice, I can't save anyone

So for now, I will hold the strength to survive in my hands...

[Japanese]

もうここに自由はない

繰り返したくない pain...

night & day

雨が降って それでも走って

光が差し込む場所まで

oh 生き抜いてみせる

晴れた心と罪悪感

uh 悲しみも

永遠に

この運命と戦っていく…

Don't wanna cry no more...

ここから抜け出そう

Don't wanna hurt no more...

自由を手にするまで

諦めるにはまだ少し早すぎる

Don't wanna cry no more...

oh 流れるままに

生きてても on my mind... yeah...

愛の行方…

愛してたって傷つけあって…

もう繰り返したくない

振り向かない

強くなりたい

どんなに振り回されても

uh この想いは

揺るがない

もう心に決めたから

Don't wanna cry no more...

ここから抜け出そう

Don't wanna hurt no more...

自由を手にするまで

諦めるにはまだ少し早すぎる

Don't wanna cry no more...

どんなに強い雨に打たれたって

今の私には守るものがある I’m never gonna let go...

正義を掲げたって 誰も救えない

だから今は 生き抜く力をこの手に...
