そう いつの日だろうか､何もかも分からなくて､ 終わりも見えなくなって､ぼくはまだここに居て､ 冷たい殻のなか､流れに身を任せて､ 誰に見つからないように､ぼくはその時を待つ かすかな記憶に揺れる心 巡る季節､変わる景色 君が心閉ざし続けるなら (You)don't know why you gotta pain tonight さわぐ肢体と翳る不安 飛び立つ為のsmile , kill your fear 君は最初から知っていた Waiting so long , Ready tonight. Go!! 分かりきった終わり見つめ悩む余力あるのならば 先を見ずに今を舞って咲いて散る花 結果恐れもがくヒマがあるのならば堂々 無我夢中時転げて笑いてく花 前をにらむ感覚をわんぱくに乱打 開くはずの無い扉を開くためのアンサー 先を変える為に今を決して曲げぬ様 悟りきった面とぼけてまいて叫ぶGO ゆらめく水の上で隠された君のその羽根を 果敢ない肢体の中に隠された君のその力 耐え難い絶え間なさのエンドレスの想像 Fly to the end of life 冴え渡る感覚を担ぎ上げて上々 I might be as one night ,one life 消えていく力を振り絞って 気持ちを高く持ち続けて So far 長くMy life to be これが出遭える最後の瞬間

Long Version
Japanese
そう いつの日だろうか、何もかも分からなくて、 終わりも見えなくなって、ぼくはまだここに居て、 冷たい殻のなか、流れに身を任せて、 誰に見つからないように、ぼくはその時を待つ かすかな記憶に揺れる心 巡る季節、変わる景色 君が心閉ざし続けるなら (You)don't know why you gotta pain tonight さわぐ肢体（み）と翳る不安 飛び立つ為のsmile , kill your fiar 君は最初から知っていた Waiting so long , Ready tonight. Go!! 分かりきった終わり見つめ悩む余力あるのならば 先を見ずに今を舞って咲いて散る花 結果恐れもがくヒマがあるのならば堂々 無我夢中時転げて笑いてく花 前をにらむ感覚をわんぱくに乱打 開くはずの無い扉を開くためのアンサー 先を変える為に今を決して曲げぬ様 悟りきった面とぼけてまいて叫ぶGO ゆらめく水の上で隠された君のその羽根を 果敢ない肢体の中に隠された君のその力 * 耐え難い絶え間なさのエンドレスの想像 Fly to the end of life 冴え渡る感覚を担ぎ上げて上々 I might be as one night ,one life かすかな記憶に揺れる心 巡る季節、変わる景色 君が心閉ざし続けるなら (You)don't know why you gotta pain tonight さわぐ肢体（み）と翳る不安 飛び立つ為のsmile , kill your fiar 君は最初から知っていた Waiting so long , Ready tonight. 今だけ今こそって気持ち常に開放 最後だって見方変えりゃ今でこその最高 しょうがないと口にできぬしょうがなさが毎度 いさみ足とサイをくだき自分だけの解答 * （繰り返し） 消えていく力を振り絞って 気持ちを高く持ち続けて So far 長くMy life to be これが出遭える最後の瞬間 |
