Lyrics

Japanese	Romaji	English
名もなき灰被りが地を蹴った	na mo naki hai kaburi ga ji o ketta	That nameless person, covered in ash, kicked the ground
白鳥の声に導かれて	hakuchou no koe ni michibikarete	Guided by the swan’s voice,
早足 人混みが流れていく	hayaashi hitogomi ga nagarete iku	The quick-flowing crowd passed a screen
画面の前に1人 ぽつり	gamen no mae ni hitori potsuri	Before which stood a lonely person
誰かの首飾りかけて踊る少女が	dareka no kubikazari kakete odoru shoujo ga	A girl dances with someone’s necklace on
繰り返し叫んだ想いが	kurikaeshi sakenda omoi ga	And cries her feelings forever
ひとりでに動き出した運命の歯車と	hitori de ni ugokidashita unmei no haguruma to	The meshing gears of destiny turned on by themselves and
繰り返し望むその刹那	kurikaeshi nozomu sono setsuna	I wish that would happen again
まもなくこの襷は消え去って	mamonaku kono tasuki wa kiesatte	Before long this tatsuki will disappear
ここから誰もここには来ない	koko kara dare mo koko ni wa konai	Nobody comes here from here
意思なき眼差しが突き刺さる	ishi naki manazashi ga tsukisasaru	A meaningless gaze pierces through me
どうして？壊れたラジオのよう	doushite? kowareta rajio no you	Each “Why?” sounds like a broken radio
聞かせてくれないの	kikasete kurenai no	Let me hear it again
誰かの首飾りかけて踊る少女が	dareka no kubikazari kakete odoru shoujo ga	A girl dances with someone’s necklace on
繰り返し叫んだ想いが	kurikaeshi sakenda omoi ga	And cries her feelings forever
ひとりでに動き出した運命の歯車と	hitori de ni ugokidashita unmei no haguruma to	The meshing gears of destiny turned on by themselves and
繰り返し望むその刹那	kurikaeshi nozomu sono setsuna	I wish that would happen again
混ざり合う灰色の靴と この翼で1、2、1、2	mazariau haiiro no kutsu to kono tsubasa de 1, 2, 1, 2	Gray shoes blend with these wings 1, 2, 1, 2
揺らめいた 輝いた	yurameita kagayaita	They flickered and shone
それは後から知れるものか？	sore wa ato kara shireru mono ka?	Was I to learn that later?
渇いた身体に染み渡るは鈍痛の渦	kawaita karada ni shimiwataru wa dontsuu no uzu	My parched body is penetrated by a whirlpool of dull pain as
彷徨い続ける誰かが鳴らした	samayoi tsuzukeru dareka ga narashita	I was woken up at an awful time by an annoying sound,
音を聴いて 嫌な時間に目が醒めた	oto o kiite iya na jikan ni me ga sameta	The sound of a stranger wandering
水で膨れた夢が	mizu de fukureta yume ga	The ends peel away from a
端から少し剥がれ落ちる	hashi kara sukoshi hagareochiru	Water-Swollen Dream
「このまま」「精一杯頑張って」	"kono mama" "seiippai ganbatte"	“Keep going” “Do your best”
「そのまま」「ヘラヘラしたまま生きたらどう」	"sono mama" "herahera shita mama ikitara dou"	“Just like that” “What if I live my life laughing like a fool, just like that?”
本当の終わりが突然やってきたとして	hontou no owari ga totsuzen yatte kita to shite	Even if the true end suddenly came,
愛想笑いでごまかせるか？	aisouwarai de gomakaseru ka?	Would you be able to cover it up with a friendly smile?
ひとりでに動き出した最後の歯車と	hitori de ni ugokidashita saigo no haguruma to	The final meshing gears turned on by themselves and
わたしが申し込んだ闘いを	watashi ga moushikonda tatakai o	I was the one who challenged that fight
壊れかけの靴を引きずって1、2、1、2	kowarekake no kutsu o hikizutte 1, 2, 1, 2	Dragging my broken shoes 1, 2, 1, 2
「よくやった」「仕方ないな」	"yokuyatta" "shikatanai na"	“Good job” “There was nothing else you could’ve done”
それが慰めのつもりなのか	sore ga nagusame no tsumori na no ka	Were you trying to comfort me?
高らかに響き渡るはカーテンコール	takaraka ni hibiki wataru wa kaatenkooru	The curtain call resounds sonorously
今 這ってでも 飛び立っていく	ima hatte demo tobitatte iku	Now I’m crawling, but soon I’ll take off
身焦がす翼で1、2、1、2	mi kogasu tsubasa de 1, 2, 1, 2	with my searing wings 1, 2, 1, 2
血を吐いて 焼け落ちて	chi o haite yakeochite	I’m spitting out blood and burning up
それでも今手にしたいものが	soredemo ima te ni shitai mono ga	Even so, there’s something that I truly want
震えた身体に突き刺さるのは脚光の渦	furueta karada ni tsukisasaru no wa kyakkou no uzu	My trembling body is pierced by a whirlpool of spotlight
ああ また 1人になる	aa mata hitori ni naru	Ah, I’ll be alone again
今始まる 最後が最後じゃなくなる	ima hajimaru saigo ga saigo ja naku naru	From this point on, the end will cease to be the end
もぎ取って手に入って	mogitotte te ni haitte	I wrench it off and take it in hand
それでも届かないその背中	soredemo todokanai sono senaka	Even so, I can’t reach your back
小さな破綻に手向けるものはアンコール	chiisana hatan ni tamukeru mono wa ankooru	This encore is for those small failures
もう運命は止まらない	mou unmei wa tomaranai	Destiny won’t stop anymore.
