[English]

With my weakness as my ally

I can fly higher than anyone else

If I stop here

The things I've lost will lose their shine

When you get lost somewhere

If my heart is also wandering

I won't be able to find you

Not just kindness, but that strength too

I understand

It's the time of dawn

Because I'm going to rush to the highest point

Yeah, I'm going to dash through it all

I must be laughing in a daze

Because the pain of those days is in the past, probably

While making the world my enemy

I stand firm on my shaky legs, yeah

Just move a little more

Now, it's revival time, the moment of awakening has come, now

Now, it's revival time, the moment of awakening has come, now

Tears overflowed as I couldn't get up

Pooling around my face

Barely able to breathe

Tears were supposed to be my allies

I understand

Because I've rushed to the highest point

Yeah, I've come rushing through it all

I must be laughing in a daze

Because the pain of those days is in the past, probably

I turned myself into an enemy

It seems strong but is fragile, yeah

I made myself an ally

I should become stronger than anyone else, now

Because I'm going to rush to the highest point

Yeah, I'm going to dash through it all

I must be laughing in a daze

Because the pain of those days is in the past, probably

While making the world my enemy

I stand firm on my shaky legs, yeah

Just move a little more

Now, it's revival time, the moment of awakening has come, now

Now, it's revival time, the moment of awakening has come, now

[Japanese]

弱さを味方につけた僕は

誰よりも高く飛べるのだから

こんなところで止まってたら

無くしたものが輝かなくなる

君がどこか迷った時に

僕の心も彷徨っていたら

見つけてあげられないんだ

優しさだけじゃなくその強さも

分かってるんだ

夜明けの時さ

最高到達点にまで

一気に駆け抜けて行くから　yeah

麻痺して笑ってるんだろう

あの日々の痛みも過去だから　多分

世界を敵にしながら

崩れそうな足で踏み止まる　yeah

あと少しだけ動いてくれ

さぁ、復活だ　目醒めの時が来た　今

さぁ、復活だ　目醒めの時が来た　今

起き上がれずに溢れた涙

顔の周りで水溜りに

息するのもギリギリで

涙は味方のはずだったのに

分かってるんだ

最高到達点にまで

一気に駆け抜けて来たから　yeah

麻痺して笑ってるんだろう

あの日々の痛みも過去だから 多分

自分を敵に回した

それは強いようで脆いから　yeah

自分を味方につけた

僕は誰より強くなるはずさ 今

最高到達点にまで

一気に駆け抜けて行くから　yeah

麻痺して笑ってるんだろう

あの日々の痛みも過去だから　多分

世界を敵にしながら

崩れそうな足で踏み止まる　yeah

あと少しだけ動いてくれ

さぁ、復活だ　目醒めの時が来た　今

さぁ、復活だ　目醒めの時が来た　今
