Lyrics

Game Size

wake up every single day
and drag a sleepy body

get on my formfitting shirt,jacket
and catch the same train and go to...

I repeat the same day over and over again
It's my usual day

only that big difference is 
you are not here...

The voice of us faded away.
and only left that faded things.

I know, always we have so many many things were
lost and got and lost and got
but inside me they are so all shining.

so I decided

never cry again and never look back
I do look where we're going

I bring this story to the end,
in the true sense,
this time,finally,

I came to this realization

never cry again and never look back
I do look where we're going, and walk tall with singing

It is my only first and...and really last thing for you
I say goodbye to us  in those days.

Good-bye.

Long Version

never look back... I bring this story...

wake up single day
and drag a sleepy body

get on my formfitting shirt,jacket
and catch the same train and go to...

I repeat the same day so over and over again
It's my usual day

only that big difference is
you are not here...

The voice of us faded away.
and only left faded things.

I know, always we have so many many things were
lost and got and lost and got
but inside me how they are all so all shining.

so I decided
never cry again and never look back
I look where we're going
I bring this story to the end,
in the true sense
this time,finally,
I came to this realization

never cry again and never look back
I look where we're going, and walk tall with singing

It's my only first time... and really last thing for you
I say good bye to us those days.

good-bye.

eat favorite dishes
and wear so lovely clothes,
enjoy chatting with my friends
and going to the movie and shopping

It's fun in a way,
but something is lacking
It's you, in a desperate
struggle to pretend that didn't notice

Though there was always together
Though I thought feeling was same as

so for some reason
always felt so lonely
think your sad smile
of those days

now I feel like
understanding
the reason a little

so for the last
never cry again and never look back
stop idealizing those memories now
will watch not the past,
watch the future I know,
I can think so now at last

never cry again and never look back
this time I want to come to like more myself
so sun rise,

new 1st begins again
begin to walk with me who am new before

right now
