Japanese
The future starts at now, not tomorrow. Realize your dream. Believe in yourself. The future starts at now, not tomorrow. Don't worry, let's go forward. ココにいること 僕らの理由 探せども 迷宮入り can not find. 見えない影に 蝕まれていく 生きる意味 どうしょうもなく 求めた 絶望の淵に 立ったつもりで Tragedy ? 自分の信じる道を 進んでゆけ 一度きりの 出会いと別れ 幾度となく 繰り返して 迷いながらでもいいんだ 踏み出せるはず その先（未来）へ 放つ 光 道しるべに 一人じゃない 歩いていこう 胸の奥で 高鳴る鼓動 確かに感じる 煌めき

The future starts at now, not tomorrow. Realize your dream. Believe in yourself. The future starts at now, not tomorrow. Don't worry, let's go forward. ココにいること 僕らの理由 探せども 迷宮入り can not find. 見えない影に 蝕まれていく 生きる意味 どうしょうもなく 求めた 絶望の淵に 立ったつもりで Tragedy ? 自分の信じる道を 進んでゆけ 一度きりの 出会いと別れ 幾度となく 繰り返して 迷いながらでもいいんだ 踏み出せるはず その先（未来）へ 放つ 光 道しるべに 一人じゃない 歩いていこう 胸の奥で 高鳴る鼓動 確かに感じる 煌めき 期待はしない 奇跡などない 予防線 張りすぎたら Community. 追い求めてる 答えはいまだ 導けず もがくばかりだけど 名誉だ 地位だ なんてくだらない Community. 暗澹の空の果て 世界は続いてく 誰 ひとりと 同じはなくて 色とりどり 輝いてる 迷いながらでもいいんだ 踏み出してみよう その先（未来）へ シューティングスター だって 撃ち落として 闇 切り裂く 強い閃光（おもい） 胸の奥で 高鳴る鼓動 確かに感じる 煌めき |
