Kanji Lyrics/Translation

答えのない毎日が
ただ過ぎていく時間が
これから先どうなるのだろう?
わからない…
living everyday without an answer
and just letting time pass by
from this point on what should i do?
i don’t know…

闇よりも深い夜の孤独に
惑わされてた
だれかに今気づいてほしい…
ここから逃げ出したいから
in loneliness on the night that was darker than black
i began to feel confused
i felt like i wanted someone to just notice…
i wanted to just escape from here

窓から見える朝焼け
部屋に鳴り響く音
アラームに起こされて
薄暗い中 家飛び出すよ
カバンの中には
何も変わらない平凡詰め込んで
そしていつもの場所へ
from the window i could see the glowing sunrise
a sound ringing in my room
awoken by the alarm clock
in the dim light i rushed out of my house
inside my bag
i crammed in nothing but the usual things
with that i headed for the usual place

だれかが言った言葉が
気になって 惑わされて
争いたくなんてないから
何も言えない
夢や理想はあるけれど
気持ちばかり先に行って
現実がずっと後ろから
ボクを見てる
the words that someone said
hung on my mind and puzzled me
because i don’t want to quarrel
i don’t say anything
even though i have dreams and ideals
my feelings always win over them
from behind reality is always
keeping an eye on me

ねぇだれか教えて
みんなそうなのかな?
今日が幸せなら
それでいいと思えるって
幼いころには
確かにあったよ
夢を追いかけてた
でもそれも遠い記憶
hey will someone tell me
is everyone the same like this?
saying “if i can be happy today
i think that should be enough”
when i was a child
i am sure i did
chase after my dreams
but that too is now a distant memory

答えのない毎日が
ただ過ぎていく時間が
これから先どうなるのだろう?
わからない…
ツキアカリのミチシルベ
雲を越えボクに届け
進むべき道を照らしてよ
今日がどんなに壊れそうでも
living everyday without an answer
and just letting time pass by
from this point on what should i do?
i don’t know…
the moonlight’s guidance
reaches to me through the clouds
lighting the path that i should take
no matter how broken i feel this day

何があっても
何があっても
信じてたいから
あの日の遠い記憶 呼び覚ますから
忘れないでね 胸に刻みつけ
no matter what happens
no matter what happens
because i want to believe
because i now remember the distant memories of that day
i won’t forget them again, i’ll carve it on my chest

答えは自分の中に
必ずあるものだから
あきらめないで
強く生きることをやめないで
悲しすぎて
前に進めない時でも
共に悩み歩んだぼくらに
風は吹く
どこまででも
the answer is here inside me
because there can be no place else
don’t ever give up
don’t ever stop living strongly
even when there’s too much sadness
and there seems to be no way forward
on us the ones who share the same troubled path
the wind will blow on
no matter how far we go
