まだ咲かせたい まだ終われない まだ消えてない 咲き続けたい 描いていた夢は 今はすでに壊れていて 泣いていた夜さえ 思い出すことが出来ない かすかに聞こえてる 貴方がくれたこの鼓動 まだ止まりはしない 何もないよりマシだわ 貴方くれたこの命 まだ燃え尽きていないし まだ先みようとしてる 何もないわけじゃないし 手も足もまだ動くし だから私は止まらない

Japanese
まだ咲かせたい まだ終われない まだ消えてない 咲き続けたい 描いていた夢は 今はすでに壊れていて 泣いていた夜さえ 思い出すことが出来ない かすかに聞こえてる 貴方がくれたこの鼓動 まだ止まりはしない 何もないよりマシだわ 貴方くれたこの命 まだ燃え尽きていないし まだ先みようとしてる 何もないわけじゃないし 手も足もまだ動くし だから私は止まらない なんにもなかった この私 絶望の淵 でも生きていた まだ今も 貴方の命？ 貴方の代わり いつだって 忘れられない もう一度咲くためだけ 描いていた夢は 新たな夢と重なった 大きな希望へと 思いは枯れ果てないまま かすかに聞こえてる 貴方がくれたこの鼓動 まだ止まることなく 何もないから楽なの？ 何もないのが怖いよ まだ終わること出来ない 鼓動が前に進むの 貴方がくれた物なの 動き続ける鼓動は だから私は止まらず ただ咲いていた 雨の中 やむのを待って ただ咲いていた まだ今も 貴方のために？ 代わりでもいい いつだって 忘れないから いつまでも咲いていたい 何もないよりマシだわ 貴方くれたこの命 まだ燃え尽きていないし まだ先みようとしてる 何もないわけじゃないし 手も足もまだ動くし だから私は止まらない |
