Yowamushi nakimushi ikujinashiA coward, a crybaby, a spineless fool,
Osanai koro kara no warui kusethese are my bad habits from childhood.
Usugurai heya no naka karaFrom inside a dimly lit room,
Sekai o teki ni mawashitetaI used to turn the whole world into my enemy.
Hitori de ikite ikerun da to“I can survive all on my own,”
Ano koro wa honki de omottetaI genuinely believed that back then.
Watashi ga seoeru nimotsu no ryou waBut the amount of baggage I can carry
Souzou ijou ni chippoke dais much smaller than I ever imagined.
