Lyrics

The cover version of Trickster doesn't include the last two stanzas heard in the original version, ending right before they are sung in the latter.

Japanese

君が｢大好きだよ｣っていつも無邪気な声で笑うから
僕の我が儘な感情 -時計- はほら、動き始める
壊れた玩具並べ  自分の理想の城作って
誰もが求める幸せに心奪われていた

｢大丈夫｣と鍵をかけて隠してた
たくさんの本音 -言葉- たち  さあ、解き放ってみよう

君の紡ぐ物語  僕に教えてよ
それは、どの神話 -星- よりも美しく光る
たとえ現在が過去に塗り替えられたとしても
あの日から続く夢のもっと先へ
迷わず記すよ  僕だけのSCENARIO

僕の紡ぐ物語  君に伝えたい
それは、終わりなき神話 -星- の愛 -いのち- の始まり

Romaji

kimi ga "daisuki da yo" tte itsumo mujaki na koe de warau kara
boku no wa ga mamana tokei wa hora, ugokihajimeru
kowareta omocha narabe jibun no risou no shiro tsukutte
daremo ga motomeru shiawase ni kokoro ubawareteita

"daijoubu" to kagi wo kakete kakushiteta
takusan no kotobatachi saa tokihanattemiyou

kimi no tsumugu monogatari boku ni oshiete yo
sore wa, dono hoshi yori utsukushiku hikaru
tatoe ima ga kako ni nurikaerareta toshitemo
ano hi kara tsuzuku yume no motto saki he
mayowazu shirisu yo boku dake no SCENARIO

boku no tsumugu monogatari kimi ni tsutaetai
sore wa, owarinaki hoshi no inochi no hajimari
