[English]

The fate that determines whether I can move forward

Your gaze is already fixed

Even tears and smiles are under control

Falling into a black hole

Your love is inside my hands

My stubborn eyes and legs want to move

My stubborn heart sways with your love

Depend on me through the endless struggle

Everything is as I imagined

A tangled thread

Only I can untangle it

Come on, depend on me selfishly

With pure, untainted eyes

Just love me continuously

Oh oh oh

...

Time is only fair and limited

Other than that, everything is filled with unfairness, yeah

(Love is unfair, yeah)

Every seed you’ve sown is growing

Nurturing and giving back

Getting caught in love that has no end

Only for my sake, your eyes and legs move

Your pure love breaks for me

Depend on me through the endless struggle

Everything is as I imagined

A shy flower

I will water it, depending on me

Come on, depend on me impulsively

Believe in my love like a child

Just seek my love

As time passes,

Even if waiting feels painful as I’m being ignored,

Just stare with your eyes full of potential

Just hold onto a single hope

There’s no other possibility except here

Don’t forget

Without me from now on, I can't go on living

No matter how I try, I can't come back

Depend on me through the endless struggle

Everything is as I imagined

A tangled thread

Only I can untangle it

Come on, depend on me selfishly

With pure, untainted eyes

Just love me continuously

...

You depend on me

You depend on me

...
