Lyrics

Japanese

"白黒で終るより 赤白で閉じたいのよ"
"孤独という名の風邪 青春とは病気だね"
"積み上げた心の壁が 目の高さなら清算"
"カラフルに終るより シズルフルな瞬間を"

「興味ない」と 振り返しては 誰よりもきっと つよがっている
僕は

Stairway Generation 階段を あがれあがれ
そして聞こえますか? 繋がれますか? あなたとOne Way
Lost In New Generation 僕はどこに? 僕はここにいる。
聞こえますか? 感じてますか? 僕の声を

あがるしかないようだ Stairway

Romaji

"shirokuro de owaru yori akashiro de tojitai no yo"
"kodoku toiu na no kaze seishun to wa byouki da ne"
"tsumi ageta kokoro no kabe ga me no taka sanara sensai wo"
"COLORFUL ni owaru yori SIZZLE furu na shuukan ima wo"

"kyoumi nai" to kuri kaeshite wa dare yori mo kitto tsuyogatte iru
boku wa

Stairway Generation kaidan wo agare agare
soshite kikoemasuka? tsunagaremasuka? anata to One way
Lost In New Generation boku wa doko ni? boku wa koko ni iru.
kikoemasuka? kanjitemasuka? boku no koe wo

agaru shikanai you da Stairway

English

"Rather than ending it in black and white, I want to close it in red and white"
"This cold feeling called solitude, youth is an illness, isn't it?"
"Loaded with walls all around my heart, my eyes stay fixed above"
"Now the moment has begun to sizzle, rather than ending in colorful"

"That's boring", a phrase I hear over and over, I act strong because I know there's someone stronger out there
I am...

Stairway Generation, I climb up and further up the stairs
Can you hear it? Are you connected? You and the one way
Lost In New Generation, where am I? I'm right here.
Can you hear it? Can you feel it?
The sound of my voice...

I'll just keep climbing this Stairway
