Long Version
Japanese
現在を、失った 世代よ 未来を、託された 世代よ 見据えた全ての｢現実｣を、歌おう。 Re : GENERATION... 継ぎはぎで繕った 世界に目を覆った 教えてよ、僕たちのゆく末を。 理不尽に削られて すり減ってゆく心。 希望的観測の 余地はない。 それでもひとつ、ゆるぎない真実。 ｢たしかに ぼくは、生きている｣ 世界は、決して、揺るがずに ぼくを、ぼくらを、つきはなす。 痛みが、いつか、 ・・・｢再生｣の 糧へとなりますように。 なみだでかすんでる いたみがあふれてる 崩れた｢社会｣というシステムは ｢愛｣で、｢夢｣で、｢希望｣で、巧妙に隠されて。 ・・・答えだけ任されだ GENERATION それでもひとつ、ゆるぎない真実。 ｢けしてばくらは、ひとりじゃない｣ 世界は、決して、揺るがずに 僕らに立ちふさがっても、 あきらめぬ 尊い想いは、その心は、侵せない。 壊し壊され ゆくことも 傷つくことも あるけれど。 悲しみ越えた その先に、 ・・・生き抜く強さがあるさ。 せつなくもいとしいこの時代に 生まれた意味を 知る日まで・・・ 世界は、決して、揺るがずに ぼくを、ぼくらを、つきはなす。 闘いはまだ、終わらない ・・・ぼくが、ぼくであるために。 壊し壊され ゆくことも。 傷つくことも あるのだと。 せめてささやかな反抗を。 ・・・きみが、きみであるために。 |
