Lyrics & Translation

[English] Every day I wake up and have my coffee
With a smile that won't let the tears overflow
Living life by the manual
I feel like I'm dying, I just wanna escape
Wanna go, wanna go, wanna go
The sun is too dazzling
Wanna go, wanna go, wanna go
I feel like I'm about to crack under pressure (x2)
Let's go now, underground, underground
Let's escape from here, underground, ground
A place where I can finally become who I want to be
Let's all go, underground, ground
Flashing underground, underground (yes!)
From this rigid world to the underground (hey!)
Shiny, shiny, shiny, underground (yes!)
To my brand new self (hey!)
Every day I come home as if I'm about to collapse
Holding back tears, I fall asleep right away
I dream again of being free
And then I realize morning has come
Wanna go, wanna go, wanna go
The sun is too dazzling
Wanna go, wanna go, wanna go
I feel like I'm about to crack under pressure (x2)
Let's go now, underground, underground
Let's escape from here, underground, ground
A place where I can finally become who I want to be
Let's all go, underground, ground
Flashing underground, underground (yes!)
From this rigid world to the underground (hey!)
Shiny, shiny, shiny, underground (yes!)
To my brand new self (hey!)
Evening at 16:30
Still, still, still, still
I want to get out quickly
Still, still, still, still
The underground drinks are delicious
The music feels good too
Let's go now, underground, underground
Let's escape from here, underground, ground
A place where I can finally become who I want to be
Let's all go, underground, ground
Flashing underground, underground (yes!)
From this rigid world to the underground (hey!)
Shiny, shiny, shiny, underground (yes!)
To my brand new self (hey!)
