Lyrics & Translation

[Japanese]

[English]

今日も君は信じる事

Do you believe today as well?

忘れずに目覚められていますか

Can you wake up without forgetting?

時が経つと自分さえも信じれなくなる時代のようです

It seems we're in an era where even you can’t trust yourself as time passes.

自分では気付かないのがこの症状の特徴で

A symptom of this is that you don't notice it yourself.

唯一ある予防法は

The only way to prevent it is

「自分にウソだきゃつかない事」

Don't lie to yourself.

忘れてたまるもんかよ

There's no use in forgetting.

僕がボクじゃなくなったら

If I stop being myself,

たとえ生きてたって生きてる意味すら見つからんだろ！

Even if I’m alive, I can't find the meaning of living anymore!

声にならない叫びは僕が声を枯らして

My silent scream is that I lose my voice,

叫んで歌って伝わるまでわめいて

Shouting and singing until I convey it,

届くまで止めない！

Shouting until it reaches, I won’t stop!

今日も地球（キミ）は回り続ける

Today, the Earth (you) keeps spinning.

誰が泣いても怒っても止まらず

No matter who cries or gets angry, it won’t stop,

ためしに僕が

Just as an experiment,

風邪をひいてももちろん止まる事なんてねーわ！

Even if I catch a cold, of course, I won’t stop!

人生も同じように止まる事はなく進むし

Life is the same; it doesn’t stop, it keeps moving forward.

だから そうさ今日も人はお手手のシワとシワをあわせんの！

That’s why, yes, today too, people fold the wrinkles of their hands!

終わらせちまう事なんか 誰にだってできんだろ！

Ending something — anyone can do that, right?

たとえ 終わっちまったって 次のスタート すぐきれんだろ！

Even if it ends, the next start is just around the corner!

今キミが思うキセキも 底上げさせてしまえば

If the miracles you believe in now

もう その時点でそのキセキは君にとっちゃ必然のお仲間さ！

Or uplift them, then

We are alive

We are alive

You going on

You going on

Me going on

Me going on

Without you

Without you

何回ダメダメと言われようが

No matter how many times I’m told "No good, no good,"

実際問題そんなん関係なくて

In reality, it doesn’t matter at all.

今、自分自身 必要なものたくわえて そろえとけよ

Right now, gather what you need, pack it up,

なぁ そうだろ？まだ まだ！時間はまだあんぞ！

Hey, right? Still, yes, still! There’s still time!

先見の明 今は とぎすまして

Stay sharp with foresight,

主人公は一人だけ！自分の物語のはじまり！

There's only one protagonist! The beginning of your own story!
