[English]

We finally made it this far, didn't we?

Our farewell felt like it was so long ago

Like it happened in a previous life

I sealed away that sad light

I wore my heels down to the bone

When I was with you, I could see it

But now I can't see it anymore

A faint, transparent comet

But that's all I'm searching for

I used to sing songs all the time

Melodies that only existed in that moment

I wasn't lonely at all

Because I was finally able to feel lonely

I don't know how much longer or how far

I don't know if it's normal or abnormal

I'm walking so much I don't even have time to think

It's so hard to keep going

It's so much better to have fun

I'll just pretend to laugh it off

It's okay, that pain

Even if I forget, it won't disappear

The path I created with ideals

Is being overwritten by reality

Memories remain as a shining trace

Glimmering along that path

Why did we say goodbye?

I wonder what it was all for

That sad light stretches my shadow

Long and ahead of me

Sometimes I get a fever

When I have time, I sleep

And within that dream, I realize

I'll meet you again, and then I'll go

Far from a clear, sunny day

Even in this endless darkness

If I think of the stars

I'm immediately lost in the galaxy

Even if I cry less and less

Even if I buy new shoes

It's okay, that pain

Even if I forget, it won't disappear

There must have been something

I wanted to tell you

It's probably something ordinary

But still, it feels like…

Saying goodbye

Is connected to having met you

That transparent comet

Is transparent, so it won't disappear

Circle, cross, triangle… which one is it?

Compared to everyone else, how am I?

I don't even have time to check

Living is the best

Even if I cry less and less

I'll just pretend to laugh it off

It's okay, that pain

Even if I forget, it won't disappear

It's okay

At the beginning of this light

You are there

[Japanese]

やっとここまで来れたね

お別れしたのはもっと

前の事だったような

悲しい光は封じ込めて

踵すり減らしたんだ

君といた時は見えた

今は見えなくなった

透明な彗星をぼんやりと

でもそれだけ探している

しょっちゅう唄を歌ったよ

その時だけのメロディーを

寂しくなんかなかったよ

ちゃんと寂しくなれたから

いつまでどこまでなんて

正常か異常かなんて

考える暇も無い程

歩くのは大変だ

楽しい方がずっといいよ

ごまかして笑っていくよ

大丈夫だ　あの痛みは

忘れたって消えやしない

理想で作った道を

現実が塗り替えていくよ

思い出はその軌跡の上で

輝きになって残っている

お別れしたのは何で

何のためだったんだろうな

悲しい光が僕の影を

前に長く伸ばしている

時々熱が出るよ

時間がある時眠るよ

夢だと解るその中で

君と会ってからまた行こう

晴天とはほど遠い

終わらない暗闇にも

星を思い浮かべたなら

すぐ銀河の中だ

あまり泣かなくなっても

靴を新しくしても

大丈夫だ　あの痛みは

忘れたって消えやしない

伝えたかった事が

きっとあったんだろうな

恐らくありきたりなんだろうけど

こんなにも

お別れした事は

出会った事と繋がっている

あの透明な彗星は

透明だから無くならない

◯×△どれかなんて

皆と比べてどうかなんて

確かめる間も無い程

生きるのは最高だ

あまり泣かなくなっても

ごまかして笑っていくよ

大丈夫だ　あの痛みは

忘れたって消えやしない

大丈夫だ

この光の始まりには

君がいる
