Lyrics[]
| Japanese | Romaji | English |
| 意味がないな きりがないな | imi ga nai na kiri ga nai na | There's no meaning—there's no end to this |
| とってつけたような態度 | tottetsuketa you na taido | With me and my fake attitude |
| 逃げてたいな 好かれたいな | nigetetai na sukaretai na | I want to run away—I want to be loved |
| 芝居めいたようにSmile | shibaimeita you ni Smile | I flash a rehearsed smile |
| 僕を知った 君は知った | boku o shitta kimi wa shitta | You knew about me—you knew |
| 触れてなんかなくとも | furete nanka naku to mo | Even without touching me- |
| 『ただぽつんと立ち竦んだ | “tada potsunto tachisukunda | "You're frozen solid |
| あの虚勢の塔のよう』 | ano kyosei no tou no you” | Just like that fake tower" |
| 僕の嘘と嘘と嘘と嘘の間 その間 | boku no uso to uso to uso to uso no aida sono aida | In between the space between my lies and lies and lies and lies, in that space |
| 君の嘘と嘘と嘘で清算しよう | kimi no uso to uso to uso de seisan shiyou | Let's even it out with your lies and lies and lies |
| ビルの合間 冷えたライター | biru no aima hieta raitaa | In the gaps between buildings—an extinguished lighter |
| とってつけたような幸 | tottetsuketa you na sachi | With me and my fake happiness |
| 寂びた雑踏 溺れまいと | sabita zattou oboremai to | It eats us up as we struggle |
| 藻掻く僕たちを食む | mogaku bokutachi o hamu | so as not to drown in this crowd—this sea of loneliness |
| 『さよなら』って息を吐いた | “sayonara” tte iki o haita | I sighed out a goodbye |
| 痛みなんかないんでしょう | itami nankanain deshou | I'm sure there's really no pain |
| 壊したいな 忘れたいな | kowashitai na wasuretai na | I want to destroy it all—I want to forget it all |
| 痛みなんかない間に | itami nanka nai ma ni | In this space void of pain |
| 僕の嘘と嘘と嘘と嘘の間 その差異が | boku no uso to uso to uso to uso no aida sono sai ga | In between the space between my lies and lies and lies and lies, in that difference |
| くたびれたネオン街のルーフに靉靆として | kutabireta neongai no ruufu ni aitai to shite | On the roof of this dilapidated neon city |
| また夜が始まった | mata yoru ga hajimatta | The blanket of night smothered us |
| アスレチックに飛び乗って | asurechikku ni tobinotte | Leaping onboard the playground |
| 君は舞った 君は舞った | kimi wa matta kimi wa matta | You danced—you danced |
| 棄てられたライト身に纏って | suterareta raito mi ni matotte | Enveloping ourselves in abandoned lights |
| 君は舞った 僕は観てた | kimi wa matta boku wa miteta | You danced—I watched |
| 廃れたモールに忍び込んで | sutareta mooru ni shinobikonde | Sneaking into an abandoned mall |
| 朝を待った 踊る君が | asa o matta odoru kimi ga | We waited for the dawn- |
| 眩しくてもう日はいらないって | mabushikute mou hi wa iranai tte | "The sight of you dancing is so bright, I'd be fine if the sun never rose" |
| 僕は思った 君は泣いた | boku wa omotta kimi wa naita | Is what I thought—you cried |
| 夜が去った | yoru ga satta | And the night left |
| なんの弁明にしたって | nan no benmei ni shita tte | No matter what justifications I came up for it |
| 綺麗事だってわかってたよ | kireigoto datte wakatteta yo | I knew they were nothing more than excuses |
| 僕は僕を救う言葉でしか | boku wa boku o sukuu kotoba de shika | And I realized—that the only words I couldn't point at you |
| 君と向き合えないって気付いたよ | kimi to mukiaenai tte kizuita yo | Were the ones I needed to save myself |
| すべて始まって終わったあの日の言葉の列を | subete hajimatte owatta ano hi no kotoba no retsu o | That line of words on the day that everything began, that everything ended |
| 何故僕は繰り返し 再生してるんだろう | naze boku wa kurikaeshi saisei shiterun darou | Why am I stuck here, looping them? |
| ずっとこの世界で | zutto kono sekai de | In this world, I've been- |
| (君を待った 君を待った) | (kimi o matta kimi o matta) | (I waited for you—I waited for you) |
| 僕はずっとこの世界で | boku wa zutto kono sekai de | In this world, I've been- |
| (君を待った でも駄目だった) | (kimi o matta demo dame datta) | (I waited for you—but it's no good) |
| 今わかったよ 否わかってた | ima wakatta yo ina wakatteta | But I know, now—nay, I always knew |
| 醒めるしかないんだよな | sameru shika nain da yo na | I have to wake up |
| 僕はずっと明けない夜に縛られてた | boku wa zutto akenai yoru ni shibarareteta | I've been trapped in a never-ending night |
| ああ どれだけ記憶を巡っても | aa dore dake kioku o megutte mo | Ahh, no matter how many times I scour my memories |
| 君といた日がこの世の何よりも | kimi to ita hi ga kono yo no nani yori mo | The day you were here |
| あたたかくて ずっといたくて | atatakakute zutto itakute | Is warmer than anything else in the world, and I want to stay here forever |
| でも抜け出さなくちゃ | demo nukedasanakucha | But I have to escape, now |
| アスレチックに飛び乗って | asurechikku ni tobinotte | Leaping onboard the playground |
| 君は舞った 君は舞った | kimi wa matta kimi wa matta | You danced—you danced |
| 棄てられたライト身に纏って | suterareta raito mi ni matotte | Enveloping ourselves in abandoned lights |
| 君は舞った 僕も舞った | kimi wa matta boku mo matta | You danced—I danced, too |
| そして最後に手を振って | soshite saigo ni te o futte | And at the end, we waved |
| 君は泣いた 君は泣いた | kimi wa naita kimi wa naita | You cried—you cried |
| 哀しくてもう日はいらないって | kanashikute mou hi wa iranai tte | "It's so sad that I'd be fine if the sun never rose" |
| 僕は泣いた 僕は泣いた | boku wa naita boku wa naita | I cried—I cried |
| 君が去って 僕が去って | kimi ga satte boku ga satte | You left—I left |
| 夜が去って すべて去って | yoru ga satte subete satte | The night left—everything left |
| ただ笑って 「さよなら」って | tada waratte "sayonara" tte | I simply laughed—"Goodbye" |
| 僕は言って 目を醒まして | boku wa itte me o samashite | Is what I said—I opened my eyes |
| 朝になった | asa ni natta | And the dawn came |
