Lyrics
Japanese
とても大事な キミの思いは 無駄にならない 世界は回る ほんの少しの 僕の気持ちも 巡り巡るよ くり返す このポリリズム あの衝動は まるで恋だね くり返す いつかみたいな あの光景が 蘇るの くり返す このポリリズム あの反動が うそみたいだね くり返す このポリループ ああプラスチック みたいな恋だ また繰り返す このポリリズム このポリリズム

Your very precious thoughts Are not to be wasted and world keeps turning My little feelings Also keeps going round and round Repeating this polyrhythm That impulse, just like love Repeating, just like when That scenery comes back to life Repeating this polyrhythm That reaction, feels unreal Repeating this polyloop Ah, this love is like plastic Repeating again, this polyrhythm This polyrhythm
