Fugainai hibiThese worthless days,
Tsukaenai ijiand this useless pride.
Tsukkaeteru ai wo touta shiteWeeding out the love that keeps stumbling,
Maegami ni jama sareruwhile my bangs get in my eyes.
Jijitsu wa shousetsu yori kinari datteThey say reality is even rawer than fiction,
Hadashi no mama kakedashiteruso I’m running out barefoot.
Hi ga shizumu nichiyouOn a Sunday sunset,
Sakaenai rimittohitting a dull limit.
Waraeteru gimikku waThe gimmick that keeps me smiling
Kimi kimi kimi desuis you, you, you.
Yoi mo warui mo tsutaenakya chantoI have to tell you everything, the good and the bad.
Karamawari hodohodo ni shinai toI need to stop spinning my wheels so much.
Kimi ga tonari de ugoiteru heartWith you right next to me, my heart races.
Kyou wa tsukerareteru kana kakkoI wonder if I’m pulling off this cool look today.
Dokka tooku he futari de vacationLet’s take a vacation, just the two of us, somewhere far away,
Kanjite fueru ironna aatofeeling all this art, making memories grow.
Saigo no hi toka itteru fikushonFiction talks about ‘the final day’ and stuff,
Dakara koko ga doko datte startso wherever we are, that’s our start line.

Motomesugicha dame ga pointoThe point is not to ask for too much,
Daishou nai ai na no nieven though this love has no cost.
Daishou wa nani tte yabuna hanashiAsking ‘what’s the price?’ is just tactless talk.
Kitai wa hoka de shiteruI’ve got other expectations elsewhere.
