Letra:

[日本語]

[English]

さあ 目を閉じたまま 歩き疲れた

Now, with my eyes closed, I'm tired from walking

この廃墟 またどこへ行く

This ruin, where do we go again?

そう 僕らは未だ

Yeah, we're still

大人になれず

Unable to become adults

彷徨ってはまた間違って

Wandering and making mistakes again

こんな悲しみと痛みさえ

Even this sadness and pain

どうせ手放せないのならば

If I can't let go anyway,

全部この手で抱きしめては

I'll hold everything in my arms

ちょうど遊ばせと笑えるさ

And just laugh and say, let’s play

さあ 呪われたまま笑い疲れた

Now, with this curse, I’m tired from laughing

この現世またどこへ行く

Where do we go again in this real world?

もう息も続かない咽喉も震えない

Breathless, throat trembling, can't go on

失ってまた躊躇って

Losing and hesitating again

嫌いを吊し上げ 帰りの会

Blaming hatred, the after-meeting

どうせ負けてしまうのならば

If I’m going to lose anyway,

弱いまま逃げてしまえたらいい

I wish I could just run away weakly, still

決して見えないあかりの先へ

Right towards an unseen light

chic chic 存在証明

Chic chic, proving my existence

願望や絶望、見ないで歌う

Wishing and despairing, I sing without seeing

迷走 SOSの向こうに

Lost in chaos, beyond SOS

夢はないの知っていたって

Even knowing there's no dream

せいぜい生きていこうとしたいんだ

All I want is to live as best as I can

運命も偶然も必要ない

Neither fate nor chance matters

「遊ぼうぜ」

Let's just play

明けぬ夜でも火を焚いて今

Light a fire even on an endless night now

そんな そんな歌をうたう

And sing that kind of song

...

...

さあ 笑われたまま願い疲れた

Now, with my laughter and tired wishes

この隘路またどこへ行く

Where do we go again in this dead-end?

どうにも日々は無情

Every day is ruthlessly indifferent

トンチキやればひどく

Doing foolish things, I get badly judged

貶されてまた傷ついて

And hurt again, a perfect strike missed

死球を見逃したアンパイヤ

The umpire missed the call

どうせ同姓じゃないのならば

If we're not actually the same gender,

僕はせめて味方でありたい

I want at least to be on your side

信じられないならそれでもいい

If you can't believe it, that’s okay

tick tack 精神態度

Tick tack, my mindset

欠乏も飽満も見過ごして

Ignoring deficiency and excess

劣等身体 もう維持限界

Weak body, at the limit of maintenance

散々呪いを受け取ったって

Even after taking curses left and right

せいぜい生きていこうとしたいんだ

All I want is to live as best as I can

慢心も謙遜も必要ない

Neither complacency nor humility are needed

許したいんだ

I want to forgive

消せぬ過去から這い出すような

To crawl out from unbreakable past

そんな そんな痛みを

That kind of pain

...

...

痛みで眠れないまま

Unable to sleep from pain

彷徨い歩くぼくらは

Wandering, we go on walking

死にながら生きるような

Like living while dying

姿をしていた

That is what we look like

思うように愛せない

Unable to love as we want

この世界で生きるため

To live in this world

血まみれのまま

Covered in blood

泥沼の中

In the muddy swamp

僕らは願いまた歩いていこうとする

We again try to walk with our wishes

chic chic 存在証明

Chic chic, proving our existence

願望や絶望 見ないで歌う

Wishing and despairing, I sing without seeing

迷走 SOSの向こうに

Lost in chaos, beyond SOS

夢はないの知っていたって

Even knowing there's no dream

せいぜい生きていこうとしたいんだ

All I want is to live as best as I can

運命も偶然も必要ない

Neither fate nor chance matters

「遊ぼうぜ」

Let's just play

明けぬ夜でも火を焚いて今

Light a fire even on an endless night now

そんな そんな歌をうたう

And sing that kind of song

...
