バイバイ 辿り着けば
Bye-bye, until we arrive.
それ以上無いから面白くないね
It's not interesting if there's nothing more.
飽きない位がいい
It's better if I never get bored.
真実はいつでも足りちゃいない
The truth is never enough.
思い寄せる不器用なあの子は
That clumsy girl who longs for you,
誰より情熱を帯びて
Holds more passion than anyone else.
緑色の輝きを放って
Radiating a greenish glow,
そんな私の手を取った
She took my hand like that.

Ah, searching for the embers once more.
愛を云うの 居場所を捉えて
To speak of love, capturing a place to belong.
咲かない花かもしれない
It might be a flower that won't bloom.
でも今日も信じてみるよ
But I’ll believe again today.
バイバイ 辿り着けば
Bye-bye, once we arrive.
それ以上無いから面白くないね
There's nothing more than that, so it's not very interesting.
酷な位がいい
A harsh touch can be quite nice.
真実はやっぱり甘くは無い
Truth, after all, isn’t sweet.
曖昧なこの駆け引き
In this vague back-and-forth.
すっからかんな頭じゃどうも描けない
With an empty head, I can’t seem to draw anything.
黒い処をも愛せればいい
It would be nice if I could love the dark sides too.
永遠を嘆くには君がいない
To lament for eternity, without you here.
繰り返される 夜の子守唄
A lullaby of night, endlessly repeating
あの子は寝付けやしなくて
That child can't seem to fall asleep
黄緑色の輝きを放って
Radiating a greenish glow
大好きな世界に唾吐いた
Spitting on the world I adore
あなたは後光が差してる
You shine with an angelic light
哀は有能 時に遊ばれる
Sorrow is skilled, sometimes I get played
笑えない嘘かもしれない
It might be a laughable lie
でもいいよ 乱してみてよ
But it's fine, go ahead and disrupt it
バイバイ 辿り着けば
Goodbye, once I arrive
安心してボーっと出来るんだろうね
I'll be able to relax and just drift away, right?
全部知らなくていい
You don't have to know everything
現実はちゃっかり甘くは無い
Reality isn't sweet in the slightest
まぁ 遺憾で仕方ないなぁ
Well, it's a pity, but what can you do?
素っ頓狂な笑顔はどうも憎めない
That absurd smile is somehow endearing
エグい処も愛せればいい？
Can I love the dark parts too?
永遠を語るには時間が足りない
There's not enough time to speak of eternity
正しいことなんか無いぞ
There's no such thing as what's right
信じれば足を掬われんぞ
If you believe, you won't be swept away
英雄になりたくはないけど
I don't want to be a hero, but
風船も泉ももう無いの？
Are there no more balloons or springs?
天国は本当にあるの？
Is there really a heaven?
バイバイ バイバイ
Bye-bye, bye-bye
これ以上無いから面白くないね
It's not interesting anymore, it couldn't be more done
満たされ続けて居たい
I want to keep feeling fulfilled
傷に効くホントの薬箱
The true medicine for my wounds
曖昧なこの駆け引き
This ambiguous back-and-forth
すっからかんな頭じゃどうも描けない
With an empty head, I just can't imagine
黒い処をも愛せればいい
It would be nice if I could love the dark parts too
永遠を嘆くには君がいない
To lament eternity, you're not here
延々と愛すには君がいない
To love endlessly, you're not here
