The moment that seems to able to change me and even
the world
Is always right by my side…
Staring at the irritations that I can’t hide and the me who stands
completely still
While I’m confused, while I’m troubled, while I’m grieving,
I should decide on it
With the one word that you gave me, my confusion vanishes
In my room that seemed empty, light shined
The great sky that I looked up at grows serene in blue
I’ve decided to open the closed window
The moment that seems to able to change me and even the world
Is always right by my side…
In the insatiable ordinary days, I search for the answer that should exist
If I turn back toward the gentle voice alone in the morning sun
Within the dazzling sunlight, unexpectedly, you smile
The closed window seems to open
The existence that seems to be able to change me and even the world
Is in front of my eyes…
The great sky that I looked up at grows serene in blue
I’ve decided to open the closed window
Here and now I feel the moment
That seems to be able to change me and even the world…
Reaching out my hands toward the light…
The fragrant wind in the colors of the sky blows through my heart

I dreamt a dream
It was endless and faraway
The sky-blue color of the dried days, in my hands
Amongst noises at equal intervals, I have trials and errors
A space without time or intervals
I’ll make a life-sized sound
And go construct my face
Beautifully, but only one side.
An apple that has started to rot
Fell into my hands
The mirror reflects our dark sides.
Amongst noises at equal intervals, I have trials and errors
A space without time or intervals
I’ll make a life-sized sound
And go construct my face
Beautifully, even now…
The distant sensation, inside of people, there are trials and errors
A space without time or sensations
I’ll bear my life-sized claws
And go whittle down my face
Beautifully, but only one side.
—Distant sensation.
—Life-sized.

Going along the animal trail, oh lions, oh tigers, roar
A splendid place at the far side of the glowing sky
For the youth that wanders in the loneliness of imprisonment
Are weakness and anger its formless enemies?
Oh father, I still
Hardly know myself
If I chase the invisible backs
Of my elder brothers who go before me
On the one night when I’m lost, the morning star lures me
Even as I yearn for a dream
That doesn’t end after I die
The definite you are indeed my life
In the wilderness of gales, oh butterflies, oh flowers, live
An illusion that blooms along with the eternal spring
Even if my body is stained by the turbid purity
Please believe in my heart’s brocade
Oh mother, I shall never
Show my tears
The dew on the grass at my feet won’t disappear
When it comes to the significance of my having been born
The time when I’ll know it will come before long
Currently, the flag of righteousness that I have at least
Is drenched in blood
I merely love you
And engraved it in my chest
Embracing a tattoo-like wound…
Going along the animal trail, oh lions, oh tigers, roar
A splendid place at the far side of the glowing sky
Is the youth that becomes a heroic warrior and battles
Something so stupid that it is almost palely blue?
Oh father, I’m still
Unable to protect the one thing that I love
Where is the truth of this world of transience?
In the wilderness of gales, oh butterflies, oh flowers, live
An illusion that scatters in the eternal spring
Even if my body is stained by the turbid purity
Please believe in my heart’s brocade
Oh mother, someday I shall
Be awarded with honor
Going along the animal trail, oh lions, oh tigers, roar
The far side of the glowing sky is a splendid place
The youth that battles based on noble intentions
Becomes a beautiful thing due to the fleeting era
Oh father, someday I would
Overcome myself
The sincerity of this world of values is over there

One by one, I join together and draw the mosaic fragments
And also the encounters and partings that you gave me
“It shouldn’t be like this,” I sleep while thinking so
And when I wake up, my usual, unchanging, and fruitless efforts
Meaninglessly repeat
The “method for living well” that I’d gathered up in mosaic
fragments
It was distorted but seemed beautiful
While I bluff, while I stumble on the road that I’ve chosen to stick
to until the end
The fragments peel off and fall, but they won’t be buried
In the world that laid out the respective willpowers
Even though there should be something that I can’t surrender to anyone
I’m worrying about the coloring
While I was enchanted by the various colors and shapes of the mosaic fragments
I desired too much for the “extremity of youth”
In the crevice of my heart, I believe in the cement of love and it pours in
On the fragments that won’t ever meld together
Because the contrast is beautiful, it’s fine if it’s uneven on
the contrary
Somehow, without waiting for my turn, I’ll find the answer to becoming
myself
The mosaic fragments vividly reflect the lies and mistakes of my past
The more I think about them, the more I want to erase them
If they repeat, then I still won’t advance from the starting line there
I’ll try gathering up dreams again
One by one, I join together and draw the mosaic fragments
And also the encounters and partings that you gave me

Say you’ll share with me one love
While my heart is still locked
With a cold attitude, I don a mask on my body
Who knows
My true face? Besides you
Without ever giving a thought about exposing
My own weaknesses and strengths
I hid my tears
From people who could show their true faces
I can’t lose you, who I kept searching for
You’re My Destiny
I want to try and believe
I still don’t understand the meaning of eternity
But You’re My Destiny
If I compose tomorrow’s dream
Then it’ll become my destiny
Say you’ll share with me one love
In order to grasp it into my hands
I calmly hurt others and lived to this point
But loneliness
Was the only thing left in the hands of this me
I won’t desire anything if you’re by my side
You’re My Destiny
Open your heart
I want to confess my unyielding thoughts
You’re My Destiny
The bond that I feel
Is the destiny of our meeting
Say you’ll share with me one love
You’re My Destiny
I want to try and believe…
You’re My Destiny
In tomorrow’s dream…
You’re My Destiny
Open your heart
I want to confess my unyielding thoughts
You’re My Destiny
The bond that I feel
Is the destiny of our meeting
Say you’ll share with me one love

You are my stories
Unread stories
You are my stories
Unread stories
When I gazed at your eyes
I could see an unknown country
Stories with their doors opened
Stories that won’t ever close again
Stories with their doors opened
Stories that won’t ever close again
Let’s go to the unknown country
That destiny can’t change
I want to protect you
Just with that wish alone
In this pitch-black world
Until the moment when light overflows
I want to protect you
Just with that wish alone
In this pitch-black world
Until the moment when light overflows

During mornings and nights, too, I yearn for love and I'll become a star to protect you,
without knowing the whereabouts of the battle
At the intersection of tomorrow and yesterday, we don't come across each other; now I'll
go, I'm a shooting star
Even if the world decays, there are things that won't change
Even if we hold back our tears, things that we must protect exist inside of us
The message from hundreds of millions of years ago starts to ache inside of my body; it echoes
With a hoarse voice, I call upon tomorrow
With hands covered in wounds, I'll protect you
I continue to fight, I continue to fight
During mornings and nights, too, I yearn for love and I'll become a star to protect you,
without knowing the whereabouts of the battle
At the intersection of tomorrow and yesterday, we don't come across each other; we're
shooting stars that slash apart fate
Now I'll take away your overflowing tears

I'll try gathering up the pieces of happiness that I picked up some other time in my chest
A melody that I started to forget about is right in the middle of me, unfading
Thank you
From my heart
I owe it to everyone for that to be in me now
Thank you
From my heart
Next it's me who will deliver happiness to everyone, Wow
I won't forget just about everything since me back then was also me
It was useless that I didn't always say 'I love you'
On a long night when my tears seem to spill, I suddenly turn back
And follow my footprints, so that I won't forget about that day
