[日本語]

[English]

押したり引いてみたりして鍵が合わなくて引き返して

Trying to push or pull the key, but it doesn't fit, so I turn back.

その先が見えない期待が いつの間に不安に変わっていた？

Expectations that couldn’t see what’s ahead, when did they turn into anxiety without me noticing?

ずっと守りたい ここに居たい 見つけた自分の居場所を

I want to protect this place forever. I want to stay here. This is where I found my own space.

陽射しを入れて 気づいてほら 息苦しさに慣れないように

Let in the sunlight, and notice—so you won’t get used to that suffocating feeling.

開け放つ駆け出した鼓動が 次の扉をノックして

Bursting open, my racing heartbeat knocks on the next door.

仕舞いたい想い映る skylight 鍵をかけて側に置いておこう

Shutting away those feelings—like a skylight—let’s lock it up and keep it close.

光も香りも鮮やかに吹き渡っていく

Light and scent spread vividly, sweeping through everything.

まだ知らない景色探して ひとつずつ確かめてひらく door

Searching for scenes I haven’t seen yet, checking each one carefully, opening the door.

...

...

埃まみれで重たくて約束なんて無いとしても

Even if it’s covered in dust and heavy, and there are no promises,

無邪気で怖いもの知らない少年のように踏み出したら

if I step forward like a carefree, fearless young boy, I will remember.

思い出してみて 角度変えて 知らない自分自身さえも

Change your perspective and try to see even the unknown parts of yourself.

出逢いに行くよ どこにいても 続く扉はあるんだきっと

I will go meet those moments—no matter where I am, there’s probably a door that leads on.

きっと

Surely.

...

...

騒ぎ出す止まれない声が 胸の深くをノックして

The restless, unstoppable voice is knocking deep in my heart.

失くせない戸惑いと迷いは 奮い立たせる原動力へ

Those worries and doubts I can’t lose become the driving force that energizes me.

涙も願いも忘れないで連れ立っていこう

Don’t forget tears and wishes—let’s move forward together.

まだ無限の未来彩って その先に広がった世界へ

Painting an infinite future, heading toward the world that spreads beyond.

開け放つ駆け出した鼓動が 次の扉をノックして

My racing heartbeat, bursting open, knocks on the next door.

仕舞いたい想い映る skylight 鍵をかけて側に置いておこう

Shutting away those feelings—like a skylight—let’s lock it up and keep it close.

光も香りも鮮やかに吹き渡っていく

Light and scent spread vividly, sweeping through everything.

まだ知らない景色探して ひとつずつ確かめてひらく door

Searching for unseen scenery, carefully exploring and opening the door.

その先に広がった世界へ

Toward the world that spreads beyond that point.
