English lyrics

You won’t ever show your weakness, even when the days don’t seem to be getting better. In the same way,
You’re drinking in too much tears, while your eyelids get heavier
It’s either pride, or something else. Open your eyes wide, so they don’t drop further.

Let’s blur them, these two lines
If every night we are reborn
Not a thing will be left, nothing will remain of us
We’ll go with these fetters on our feet

What’s the meaning of this fight? Every day, you won’t answer, and yet
Swimming through your tears, I know we’re getting closer to one
Motivation, and regret. Let’s take care not to confuse the two

Let’s blur things, above the line of the earth
When we fly, and climb over every step
There’ll be nothing around, nothing to support us
But even as we’re thrown off balance
Let’s keep going

The joystick was smashed, I can’t control it
But let’s keep staring miles ahead
Every night, I’m reborn
So instead of thinking about it, I’ll head toward my new self

Kanji

弱みは見せるまい うだつの上がらない日々 そのもの
君は涙を飲みすぎてる 重たくなってる瞼
自尊心 その他 落とさぬように見開いて

曖昧にしよう この線と線を
毎晩生まれ変われたら
何一つないよ 何も残さない
足枷を付けたまま行く

この戦いの意味は? 答えの出ない毎日 それでも
君の涙の中で泳ぐ 近づいてるって わかる
動機 後悔 混ざらぬように背負いこんで

曖昧にしよう 地上の線の上
毎段飛ばし登れたら
何一つないよ 支えるものもない
バランスを崩しながらでも
行こう

操縦桿をへし折った コントロールできないよ
何百マイル先をずっと見つめ続けて
毎晩生まれ変わるよ
考えるより先に次の僕へ
