咲きも出来ないうちに枯れ落ちる
Before it can even bloom, it withers away,
儚さを人は愛と言う
Fleetingness is what people call love.
最期の夜空、花は何を見る?
On the final night sky, what does the flower see?
願がわくば幸あれ
If wishes come true, may there be happiness.
ありきたりだな まるで紙芝居
It's so ordinary, like a paper theater.
身勝手なルール愛したい
I want to love the selfish rules,
エスカレートしてゆく寂しさに
As loneliness escalates,
飲まれるくらいなら
If I'm to be consumed by it,
けったいな理想はどうなった?
What happened to those strange ideals?
勿体ぶらないで
Don't hold back now.
そっと君の答え 聞かせて?
Gently, will you share your answer with me?
弾けとんだ世界、歪んでく勝ち負け
The world bursts apart, the struggles twist and turn.
きっとそこに未来はないわ
Surely, there's no future waiting there.
素っ気なく輝く 青空まで
Even the blue sky shines indifferently.
真っ逆さまに落ちていこう
Let's fall headfirst into the unknown.
蓋をかぶせて飾りで誤魔化す
Cover it up, beautify it to disguise the truth.
お決まりの同士がのさばる
Familiar faces roam freely around.
そこへ冴えない明日が横たわる
There lays a mundane tomorrow waiting.
...とりあえず跨る
...for now, I'll straddle the line.
何も出来ないくせに夢は見る
Though I can do nothing, I still dream.
煮えたぎる最期のポジティブ
The boiling finale of positivity
身体中に広がるネガティブに
Spreading negativity throughout my body
溶かされませんように
I hope I won't be melted away
曖昧な夢想はどうなった?
What happened to those vague dreams?
勿体ぶらないで
Don't hold back, just let it be
そっと本当のこと 教えて?
Gently, will you tell me the truth?
変わりきった世界、腐った痛み分け
In a transformed world, sharing the rotting pain
きっとそこに未来はないわ
Surely, there is no future there.
素っ気なく輝く青空まで
Until I reach the bare, shining blue sky
一直線に落ちていこう
Let's fall in a straight line
滑稽な希望はどうなった?
What happened to the ridiculous hope?
勿体ぶらないで
Don't hold back now,
そっと君の答え 聞かせて?
Gently, can you share your answer?
弾けとんだ世界、歪んでく勝ち負け
The world bursts apart, the wins and losses distort.
きっとそこに未来はないわ
Surely, there's no future waiting there.
素っ気なく輝く青空まで
Up to the indifferent, shining blue sky,
真っ逆さまに落っこちてみたい
I want to fall headlong into it all.
がっかりだよね、みんなバカみたい
It's disappointing, isn't it? Everyone seems foolish.
一体何を目指してんの?
What on earth are we even aiming for?
やつれ果てたプライド脱ぎ捨てて
Throw away the worn-out pride.
真っ逆さまに堕ちていこう
Let's fall straight down, head over heels.
