Lyrics

Japanese

Without you tonight　心の奥から湧き上がる
時計の針は　君と　僕を　つなぎとめるの？

Easy come　戻れない　Oh! Survival Games
ここから向け出して
Ah!「busy day」Wow!「busy night」

Stand up Guys!　もう一度
立ちあがれ　Everybody

Stand up Guys!　大空に
鳴り響く　Melody

Stand up Guys!　あの場所で
もう一度　あえるなら

Stand up Guys!　こころから
伝えたい　Melody

Romaji

Without you tonight kokoro no oku kara wakiagaru
tokei no hari wa kimi to boku wo tsunagitomeru no?

Easy come modorenai Oh! Survival Games
koko kara mukedashite
Ah! "busy day" Wow! "busy night"

Stand up Guys! mouichido
tachiagare Everybody

Stand up Guys! oozora ni
narihibiku Melody

Stand up Guys! ano basho de
mouichido aeru nara

Stand up Guys! kokorokara
tsutaetai Melody

English

Without you tonight, brought up from the depths of your heart
Have the hands of the clock stopped just for you and me?

It never comes easy - Oh! Survival Games!
We're going out from here
Ah! "busy day" Wow! "busy night"

Stand up Guys! Once again,
Stand up, everybody!

Stand up Guys! In the sky,
There's a ringing melody

Stand up Guys! In a place,
If I can meet you again,

Stand up Guys! From the heart,
You'll tell me your melody!
