1. ずいぶん長らく歩いてきたような そんな気がしてただけなんだ

   It feels like I've been walking for quite a while, or so I think.

2. 小説にしたら せいぜいまだ3行目あたりのこの人生

   If this were a novel, I'm still barely on the third line of this life.

3. カバーもまだ 題名もまだ 決まらずに書き始めちゃったから

   I started writing without even deciding on a cover or a title.

4. どこでどうしてどうなって って順序よく収まりつかないや

   No matter how I try to piece it together, I can't find a logical order for what happened where and how.

5. 今日はただただもう さぁダラダラしようと 物思いにふけてても

   Today, I just want to laze around and get lost in thought.

6. 早くも僕の胸はもぞもぞと動きだす だって

   Already, my heart starts to stir and fidget, because,

7. 心臓は脈打ち 何ccかの血を全身へと送り出しを繰り返し

   The heart beats, sending a certain amount of blood throughout my body in repetition,

8. 今日も休まず僕は僕を生かし

   Today too, without rest, I keep myself alive.

9. 辻褄合わぬストーリーに ほろ苦い顔で見るストーリー

   A disjointed story viewed with a bittersweet expression.

10. 誇れるほどのものはまだないが 僕だけに光るものはあんだ

    Though there's nothing yet to boast about, there is something that shines just for me.

11. 塗りつぶしたい？ 破り捨てたい？ 過去があろうとも汚れのない

    Do you want to paint it over? Tear it apart? Even if there's a past, it remains untainted.

12. 物語など僕は惹かれない あぁ 一瞬先の自分さえ

    I'm not drawn to tales without flaws; ah, not even to the self just a moment ahead.

13. もう待てないよ

    I can't wait any longer.

14. 今すぐでも会いたいよ

    I want to see you right now.

15. うかうかしてらんないの

    I can't afford to dawdle.

16. はみ出した君の痛みが 壊れないようにと涙した

    Your pain that spills over, I wept so it wouldn't break.

17. ひょっとしたら もしかしたら それはいつかのあの僕だった

    Perhaps, it just might be that it was me once upon a time.

18. 輝いた朝の光が 水たまりを蹴って飛び散った

    The shining morning light kicked up the puddles, scattering all around.

19. あのどれかが今の君なら いいな いいな

    If any of those was you now, that would be wonderful.

20. どっかの誰かが勝手に君のことを あーとかこーとか言ったり

    Someone, somewhere, is talking about you, saying this and that.

21. いつの間にか君のブックの表紙に名前 勝手につけて

    Before I knew it, I placed my name on the cover of your book, without asking.

22. 頭きたよ 頭悪いけど あんたに言われる筋合いはねぇから

    I'm fed up, I'm not the brightest, but I don't have to take that from you.

23. とっとといなくなっとくれ これ電車賃 受け取っとくれ

    Just hurry up and disappear, here’s your fare, please accept it.

24. どうにもこうにもいかない時でも どうにかこうにか

    Even when things seem utterly hopeless, somehow, in some way, we persist.

25. ここまで来たんだよ 今自信を持って言えるのは

    I've come this far, and now I can confidently say

26. 僕を乗りこなせんのは こいつの勝手がそう 分かんのは

    Only this one understands how to ride me, that is its way.

27. 他にゃいないんだ このおいらにゃ このポンコツくらいが丁度いいんだ

    There's no one else for me, this clumsy me is just right.

28. でもあわよくば まぁ いつの日か この僕のこと この僕よりも

    But perhaps someday, this myself, more than this me...

29. より分かって笑ってくれる人と出逢えるといいな なんて

    I hope to meet someone who understands me better and can smile together.

30. その時まで待てないよ

    I can't wait until that moment.

31. 今すぐ抱きしめたいよ

    I want to hold you right now

32. この手で温めたいよ

    I want to warm you with these hands

33. 飛び出した白い光が 奇跡と合わさって芽を出した

    The white light that burst forth has sprouted, merging with miracles

34. それが僕ならいいさ それならいっそ奇跡使い果たすんだ

    If that's me, then it's fine; I’ll exhaust all miracles if that's the case

35. 溢れ出した君の涙が 無駄にならぬようにと駆け出した

    I rushed out so your overflowing tears won't be in vain

36. それを見た僕が胸に抱く気持ち なんて美しいんだ

    The feelings I hold in my heart when I see that—how beautiful they are

37. 1秒先で輝いて見えるものだけ追いかけて

    Chasing only what shines just one second ahead

38. 「間違いなんてないんだから」 そんな言葉を真に受けて

    "There are no mistakes," I took those words to heart

39. ゼロで生まれた僕なのに 今名前呼ぶ人がいて

    Even though I was born from zero, there's someone who calls my name now

40. 当たり前などない脳に 産み落としてくれて ありがとう

    Thank you for bringing me into a mind where nothing is taken for granted

41. ありがとう ありがとう

    Thank you, thank you

42. たとえ1ページで終わる命も 1000ページに及ぶ命も

    Whether a life that ends in a single page or one that stretches across a thousand pages,

43. 比べられるようなもんではない 同じ輝きを放つに違いない

    They cannot be compared; both surely shine with the same brilliance.

44. あいまい 何の気ない言葉 延々紡ぐ暇などない

    Ambiguous, careless words spin endlessly, with no time to weave them.

45. 1ページを生きた少年の本には 誰よりも光る一行が

    In the book of a boy who lived just a single page, there is a line that sparkles brighter than any other.

46. 綴られているんだ

    It is written there,

47. そう信じてやまないんだ

    I believe it steadfastly.

48. もうジタバタしてたいんだ

    I just want to be in a flurry once more.

49. 僕もどれだけ遺せんだ

    How much can I leave behind?

50. ねぇ どれだけ生きれんだ

    Hey, how long can I live?

51. 時間以外の単位で

    In units other than time,

52. はみ出した君の痛みが 壊れないようにと涙した

    I wept that your pain, which spills over, wouldn't break.

53. ひょっとしたら もしかしたら 君の優しさの影だった

    Perhaps, just maybe, it was the shadow of your kindness.

54. 輝いた朝の光が 水たまりを蹴って飛び散った

    The shining morning light kicked at the puddles and splattered everywhere.

55. あのどれかが今の君なら いいな いいな いいな

    If any of those could be the you of now, how wonderful, how wonderful, how wonderful.
