Kanji/Translation

潔く　カッコ良く　生きて行こう… (Just a long long time)
たとえ２人離ればなれになっても… (Let go of me)
Take my revolution
———
courageously and gracefully let’s live our lives (Just a long long time)
even if the two of us were to be separated (Let go of me)
Take my revolution

光差す校庭（garden）手をとり合い
誓い合ったなぐさめ合った
もう　恋は二度としないよって
そんな強い結束は　カタチを変え
今じゃこんなにたくましい　私達の
Life style, everyday… everytime (Everytime)
————
in the sunlit garden we took each other’s hands
and took comfort as we vowed
that we will never fall in love again
it was such a strong bond it changed us
making us strong and into who we are today our
Life style, everyday… everytime (Everytime)

頬を寄せあって　うつる写真の笑顔に
少しの淋しさつめ込んで
looking at us, cheeks close together and smiling in the photo,
a little bit of loneliness comes over me

潔く　カッコ良く　明日からは　誰もが振り向く女になる
たとえ２人離ればなれになっても　心はずっと一緒に
courageously and gracefully, from tomorrow onwards I will become a woman that everyone turns to look at
even if the two of us were to be separated, our hearts will forever be together

愛は　お金では買えないって
知っているけど
“I”でお金は買えるの？T.V.で言ってた
無感動…無関心きりがないね
若い子みんなそうだと思われるのは
feel so bad!　どうしようもないじゃない (I feel so bad)
—————
they say love cannot be bought with money
i know that but
can money be bought with “I”? they said so on T.V.
unfeeling and uncaring it never ends
the way they say all young people seem to be like that
feel so bad! but it cannot be helped isn’t it (I feel so bad)

でもね私達　トモダチの事
何より大切にしてる　きっと大人よりも (Revolution)
———–
but you know, when it comes to our friends
we treasure them above all else, surely more than adults treasure theirs (Revolution)

夢を見て　涙して　傷ついても　現実はがむしゃらに来るし
自分の居場所　存在価値は失くせない　自分を守るために
even as I dream, cry and get hurt, reality is approaching at a frantic pace
where I belong and the value of my existence, I can’t let myself lose them, in order to protect myself

I’ll go my way　戻れない　それぞれの　道を選ぶ時が来る前に
こんなにも　こんなにも　大切な想い出…とき放つよ…
——————
I’ll go my way, I can’t turn back, before the time comes when we’ll have to choose our own paths
such precious, precious memories… I must let go of them…

Take my revolution　生きて行こう　現実はがむしゃらに来るし
自分の居場所　存在価値を見つけたい　今日までの自分を
潔く　脱ぎ捨てる　裸になる　自由を舞う薔薇のように
たとえ２人離ればなれになっても　私は世界を変える
—————–
Take my revolution, let’s live our lives, as reality is approaching at a frantic pace
where I belong and the value of my existence I want to discover them, and the person I’ve been till today
courageously, throwing off my clothes till I am bare, just like the freely dancing roses
even if the two of us were to be separated, I will change the world
