[English]

Hello!

Greatness isn't the end, you know, alright?

Irony is just a tiny piece of love now

Countless unexpected crashes

That's also a flag of our victory

Because I won't let anyone measure us

Our life and death

Everyday, every night, a wild ride

I can't stay sane, because

I want that heart-pounding feeling, I can't stop anymore

Just like this, let's show...

Every day, every night, just feeling it

It's already started, for sure

Look into my eyes, reach out your hand

With you—it's showtime!

Jump on board tonight!!

Don't stop—more and more

Everything's all right!!

Every day, every night, don't worry about it

You can't drown it out with noise, that sound

That pounding heartbeat, that's all I need

I'll show you, let's show...

Everyday, every night—I'm nearing my limit

But I believe in the tomorrow I haven't seen yet, forever

Just trusting, come on, let's start

Watch me—it's showtime!!

Jump on tonight!!

Don't stop—more and more

It's gonna be alright!!

[Japanese]

Hello!

GRAETだけじゃ終わらない All right?

Ironyなんてもう 愛のひとかけら

何度想定外のクラッシュ

それも万々歳のフラッグ

誰にも図らせはしないから

わたしたちの死生

Everyday Everynight 番狂わせ

正気じゃいられない、だって

ドキドキしたい もう止まれない

このまま Let's show...

Everyday Everynight 感じるだけ

もうとっくに始まってる、きっと

ほら目を見て 手を伸ばして

あなたと It's showtime!!

飛び乗って今夜!!

Don't stop まだまだまだ

すべてが It's all right!!

Everyday Everynight 構わないで

雑音じゃ掻き消せない That sounds

ときめく鼓動 それだけでいい

見せるよ Let's show...

Everyday Everynight 限界なんです

でもまだ知らない明日を、ずっと

信じてるだけ さぁ始めよう

見ててよ It's show time!!

飛び乗って今夜!!

Don't stop まだまだまだ

It’s gonna be all righ t!!
