Lyrics

Japanese	Romaji	English
モノクロの街　揺れる人波	monokuro no machi yureru hitonami	Monochrome town, swaying crowds
無機質な風に　震える夜空	mukishitsuna kaze ni furueru yozora	Night sky shuddering in the artificial wind
うつむいて歩く　僕の横顔	utsumuite aruku boku no yokogao	Walking with my head down
掠(かす)めるように　飛び込んだ花弁(はなびら)	kasumeru you ni tobikonda hanabira	Flower petals leapt to graze my cheeks
ビルの群れに　埋もれそうになった	biru no mure ni uzumoresou ni natta	The little sun, lost in the night
夜にはぐれた　小さな太陽	yoru ni hagureta chiisana taiyou	Got buried in a cluster of buildings
色のない景色の中で　鮮やかに光ってた	iro no nai keshiki no naka de azayaka ni hikatteta	It shone brilliantly amidst the colorless scenery
微かに　届く光抱きしめ	kasuka ni todoku hikari dakishime	The sunflower that struggled to bloom
もがくように咲いてる　向日葵(ひまわり)の花は	mogaku you ni saiteru himawari no hana wa	Embraced that faint light
人知れず　声もなく叫んでた	hitoshirezu koe mo naku sakendeta	It shouted secretly with no voice
ただ空を　まっすぐ見上げて	tada sora o massugu miagete	Just looking straight up to the sky
ネオンも消えた　真夜中の街	neon mo kieta mayonaka no machi	Midnight town, even the neon lights have faded
切り裂くような　ビル風の中で	kirisaku you na biru kaze no naka de	A violent wind tearing between the buildings
茂る緑　照りつける太陽	shigeru midori teritsukeru taiyou	In full green, the sun blazing down
何も知らず　咲いてる向日葵(ひまわり)は	nani mo shirazu saiteru himawari wa	The foolish sunflower raised its battered arms
傷だらけの腕伸ばして　月明かり抱きしめて	kizudarake no ude nobashite tsukiakari dakishimete	To grasp the moonlight
誰もが　気にも留めないような	dare mo ga ki ni mo tomenai you na	No one pays it any mind
掃き溜めに根を張る　向日葵(ひまわり)の花は	hakidame ni ne o haru himawari no hana wa	This sunflower spreading its roots in a garbage heap
ぶ厚い　雲を貫くように	buatsui kumo o tsuranuku you ni	To pierce through the thick clouds
ただ空を　まっすぐ見上げて	tada sora o massugu miagete	It just looks straight up to the sky
凍えるような　暗闇の中	kogoeru you na kurayami no naka	In the chilling darkness
僕の心を　ひどく揺さぶった	boku no kokoro o hidoku yusabutta	My heart was struck hard
太陽の花	taiyou no hana	By that flower of the sun
夜露に輝く花弁(はなびら)張り詰めたように	yotsuyu ni kagayaku hanabira haritsumeta you ni	Petals sparkling in the evening dew as if frozen over
微かに　届く光抱きしめ	kasuka ni todoku hikari dakishime	The sunflower that struggled to bloom
もがくように咲いてる　向日葵(ひまわり)の花は	mogaku you ni saiteru himawari no hana wa	Embraced that faint light
人知れず　声もなく叫んでた	hitoshirezu koe mo naku sakendeta	It shouted secretly with no voice
ただ空を　まっすぐ見上げて	tada sora o massugu miagete	Just looking straight up to the sky
誰もが　気にも留めないような	dare mo ga ki ni mo tomenai you na	No one pays it any mind
掃き溜めに根を張る　向日葵(ひまわり)の花は	hakidame ni ne o haru himawari no hana wa	This sunflower spreading its roots in a garbage heap
ぶ厚い　雲を貫くように	buatsui kumo o tsuranuku you ni	To pierce through the thick clouds
ただ空を　まっすぐ見上げて	tada sora o massugu miagete	It just looks straight up to the sky
凍えるような　暗闇の中	kogoeru you na kurayami no naka	In the chilling darkness
僕の心を　ひどく揺さぶった	boku no kokoro o hidoku yusabutta	My heart was struck hard
太陽の花	taiyou no hana	By that flower of the sun
