Lyrics[]

Len • KAITO

掴んだ腕も
未来の闇も
キミの
となりと
願った
はじまる朝に　還れぬ夜に
涙も
ボクも
なにも　残せずに…

踏み出せば　埋もれ　倒れても
ピュアな自由に
強気に
笑い返す
ただ　見たいのは　ラスト。
ナイーブな　沈黙をよむ
システム
眠らぬ空。

瞳　焼き付けた　熱さ
忘レテモ、覚エテテ
千切れそうな
運命を
押しのけ、届かせて

こんなボクらは　いつもどうして
カワす　言葉に
つまづき
崩れ　壊れて　引き換えに生まれ
おしえて？
理由 (わけ) 　の　イミを
今　スグに。

差し出せば　閉ざす　その、向こう
辿り着きたい　一緒に
「行けずゴメン。」
イエない傷をつけて
手放した太陽が　まだ
コノテニ　残ってた頃

汚すコトを知る　欠けた　白色の目的は
朱に混ざって
コワイって
震えるの、でしょうか？

遠い夕陽も　同じ夜明けも
隣をゆずれ
なくても
でも、結局ボクら　何か変われた？
こたえは
「…もう一度。」
さえ　消せなくて…

千切れそうな
運命を
押しのけ　届かせたい

「掴ンダ腕モ」
「未来ノ闇モ、」
キミの隣、と　願った…！
はじまる朝に　還れぬ夜に
涙も
ボクも
なんにも

こんなボクらは　いつもどうして
カワす　言葉につまづき。
崩れ　壊れて　引き換えに生まれ
おしえて？
理由 (わけ) を
イミを…！

Clutched arms
The darkness of the future
I hoped
To be
At your side
On mornings of departure and nights of no return
Without tears
Without me
With nothing left behind

If you set out, and are buried or fall
Laugh in the face of it all
With pure freedom
With confidence
I just want to see the finale
To read the fragile silence
A system
A sleepless sky

Even if you forget the heat
Burned into our eyes, remember:
Let's push aside
This fragile fate
And make our way beyond

Why do we always
Stumble on the words
We exchange?
Tell me why they crumble and break
And in exchange are born
I want to know the rhyme behind the reason
Right now

When I reach out to the beyond, it closes
I want to get there, together
"Sorry I can't come with you."
It was that time
When the sun I had wounded unspeakably
And relinquished, was still with me

When this broken objective of white, no stranger to tarnish
Is corrupted with color
Will you tremble
And say you're scared?

The distant sunset, the same dawn
Even if we
Stay together
Will we ever have the change we seek?
I can't even erase
The answer
"...one more time"

Let's push aside
This fragile fate
And make our way beyond

"Clutched arms"
"The darkness of the future"
I hoped to be at your side!
On mornings of departure and nights of no return
Without tears
Without me
With nothing

Why do we always stumble
On the words we exchange?
Tell me why they crumble and break and in exchange are born
I want to know
The rhyme behind
The reason!

A distant sunset
The same dawn

Why must we always...?

緊握的手臂也好
未來的黑暗也好
祈願
能夠，
在你身旁
在初始的清晨裡　在不歸的深夜中
淚水
與我
一切都　無影無蹤......

即使前進，會沉陷　跌倒
也要絕對自由地
堅強地
笑著回應
想看的　只有　結局。
品讀　天真的　沉默
架構
不眠之天空。

烙印在　雙眼的　熱度
就算遺忘，也請記起
幾乎被撕碎的
命連
排除萬難，送至身邊

這樣的我們　為何總是
在彼此的言語中
受挫
崩毀，壊滅，換來新生
告訴我？
理由的　意義
現在，立刻。

伸出雙手　被拒之門外　那、另一端
想要一起　抵達那裡
「抱歉　我不能去。」

知曉污濁之事　殘缺的　潔白目的
交雜着朱紅
所謂害怕
是否是、顫慄呢？

無論是遠方的夕陽　還是相同的黎明
哪怕無法
伴君身側
但，最終我們　能有什麼改變？
答案是
連「......再一次。」
也　無法抹消......

幾乎被撕碎的
命連
排除萬難，送至身邊

「緊握的手臂也好」
「未來的黑暗也好，」
祈願能夠，在你身旁......！
在初始的清晨裡，在不歸的深夜中，
淚水
與我
一切都......

這樣的我們　為何總是
在彼此的言語中　受挫。
崩毀，壊滅　換來新生
告訴我？
理由的
意義......！

無論是遠方的夕陽
還是相同的黎明

這樣的我們　為何總是......
