Mirai ga aru kara Meaning & Lyrics (22/7_The 3Rd)
The songwriter mentions shaking off an arm, a moment of stubborn pride that hides deeper insecurities. A key line stands out: ‘The me you know isn’t the real me, I can’t even like myself.’ This honest confession cuts to the heart of the song’s emotional struggle.
Dareka ni tekubi o gyutto tsukamareteSomeone grabbed my wrist tightly,
Iku na to iwarete hikitomerareruTelling me not to go, trying to hold me back.
Sou iu keiken shita koto aru kai?Have you ever had an experience like that?
Mochiron ai da to wakatte wa itemo…Even though I knew it was love, of course…
Teikou shita no wa naze datta no ka?Why did I resist?
Ude o furikitta no wa puraido ni nita hen na iji daShaking off your arm was just a weird stubbornness, like pride.
Kimi ga omotteru yori boku wa ii hito janaiI’m not as good a person as you think I am,
Uso wa tsuite inai kedo shoujiki demo naiAnd while I’m not lying, I’m not being honest either.
Kimi ga shitteru boku wa hontou no boku janaiThe me you know isn’t the real me,
Jibun demo akireru hodo jibun ga suki ni narenaiI can’t even like myself; it’s enough to make me sick of who I am.
Mirai ga aru kara ii janai?Since there’s a future ahead, it’s fine, isn’t it?
FurimukizamaJust as I’m turning away,
Boku ni iu tsumori kaAre you really planning to tell me
Jijitsu ga dou demo kankei nai nanteThat the facts don’t matter, regardless of what they are?
Katte na rikutsu to omotte shimauI can’t help but see that as selfish logic,
Naniyori daiji na kijun wa itsu demoBecause the only standard that matters is always
Shiro toka kuro toka futatsu ni hitotsu daEither black or white—one of the two.
Tousou shita no wa doushite na no ka?Why was it that I ran away?
Uragirareta to shitemo sou kantan ni kizutsuku mono ka?Even if I were betrayed, would I really get hurt that easily?
Kimi ga shinjite kuretemo boku wa warui ningen daEven if you believe in me, I’m a bad person.
Ai ga shinjitsu ka nante dou demo ii kotoWhether love is the truth or not doesn’t really matter,
Kimi no shiranai boku ga kono sekai ni itandaBecause a side of me you don’t know existed in this world.
Saa ima nara maniau yo subete o wasurete hoshiiLook, there’s still time; I want you to forget everything,
Mirai to iu no wa demakase daSince this concept of a ‘future’ is just a lie.
Me o minagaraWhile looking into your eyes,
Chanto ieru no kanaaI wonder if I can say it clearly.
Nani o shinjiteru?What do I believe in?
Nani o shinjitai?What do I want to believe in?
Kako wa yarinaoseru ka?Can the past ever be redone?
Kimi ga omotteru yori boku wa ii hito janaiI’m not as good a person as you think I am,
Uso wa tsuite inai kedo shoujiki demo naiAnd while I’m not lying, I’m not being honest either.
Kimi ga shitteru boku wa hontou no boku janaiThe me you know isn’t the real me.
Jibun demo akireru hodo jibun ga suki ni narenaiI can’t even like myself; it’s enough to make me sick of who I am.
Mirai ga aru kara ii janai?Since there’s a future ahead, it’s fine, isn’t it?
FurimukizamaJust as I’m turning away,
Onaji kotoThe same words,
Nankai demoNo matter how many times,
Kimi wa iu tsumori ka?Are you gonna keep saying them?
