Trouble Consultation Room

Another sad kiss

Can't get up on Monday

Maybe it's your fault

The devil is whispering to me

Come here...

This is where the real challenge begins

Show some courage, baby, baby

Even if it hurts a little

Don't run away! Tatta-tatta, touch me!

Keep your energy up, never never give up

Clench your jaw, never give up

Yes or No? No more waiting around

Don't look back

Yes or No? Yes, yes or no?

Yes or No? Yes, yes or no?

Yes or No? Yes, yes or no?

Yes or No? Yes, yes or no?

Can't catch taxis

Having fun with a roast session

Boring Sunday

It's my fault

I can't forget

The words spoken that day, in that place

So what? Just because of that guy?

Don't lose, baby, baby, baby

Even if I look lame or embarrass myself

It's okay. This is your life.

You can go even further, right?

Let’s pick up the pace!

Yes or No? Just go for it.

Lift your chin, never say never.

Yes or No?

The countdown doesn’t stop.

Everyone faces crossroads at some point.

Help me! No one can decide for you.

Because there’s no right answer anywhere.

You just have to keep creating your own answers.

Yes or No? Yes, yes or no?

A cruel nightmare unfolds.

An endless story keeps going.

This is where the real challenge begins.

Show your true self, baby, baby, baby.

Even if it hurts a little.

Can’t help it, Tatta-tatta, touch me!

We’ll keep shifting gears.

Stubbornly, never never give up.

Yes or No? Enough already.

Bite through those chains.

So what? Just because of that guy?

Don’t die, baby, baby, baby.

It’s embarrassing to be lame or ashamed.

Level up—this is my life.

Even more, more, more.

Unleash your stupid strength when pushed to the limit.

Yes or No? I won’t hesitate anymore.

Face forward, never say never.

Give it your all, life only happens once.

Burn with passion, papapapa!

When you’re torn apart,

Seize the chance! Kiss, kiss, kiss, kiss me.

Forget the embarrassment or shame.

Throw everything away—jumping, jumping!

Yes or No? Yes, yes or no?

Don’t despair—never say never.

...
