鏡写しかのような
Like a reflection in a mirror,
瓜二つの世界に
In this world of two halves,
それぞれ生まれた二人の私
Two of my selves were each born,
在るべき場所が違ったか
Were we meant to be in different places?
神様が間違ったか
Did the gods make a mistake?
同じ姿形中身は真反対
Though our shapes are the same, our insides are total opposites.
違和感はどうやら ずっと前に育ってた
It seems my sense of dissonance has been growing for ages.
パパもママも大事に思ってる
I cherish both Mom and Dad dearly,
だけど私はどうやら
But it seems that here,
此処じゃ私じゃないから
I can't be myself.
赤は赤に黒は黒に戻るの
Red returns to red, and black to black,
次元を隔てた向こう側の世界じゃ
On the other side of dimensions, in a world apart,
今日だって残酷な悪魔が鳴いている
Even today, a cruel devil is crying out,
あっちの私は怖がりで泣き虫なの
Over there, I'm just a scaredy-cat, a crybaby,
見て見ぬ振りできないから
I can't just turn a blind eye to it,
これじゃハッピーエンドとはいかない
This just won't lead to a happy ending,
それじゃ救いに行くね世界
Well then, I'll go save you, world,
こんな乱暴な私を許して
Please forgive this rough me,
きっとやり遂げるから
I'll surely see it through,
これはバッドエンドなんかじゃない
This is not a bad ending at all.
どこに居たとしても私は
No matter where I am, I will be
そう世界で一人のオリジナル
The one and only original in this world
誇らしく思ってくれたら嬉しいな
I'd be so happy if you could feel proud of me
境界の線で切り分けたこちら側の世界じゃ
In this world divided by boundary lines
今日だって呑気な天使があくびする
Even today, a carefree angel yawns
気付いてしまった悪は見逃せないから
I can't ignore the evil I've come to realize
帰り道を交換しよう
Let's exchange our way back home
私が希望になるの
I will become the hope
お別れは少し寂しいけれど
Goodbyes are a little sad, but
いつか目尻に作った傷も
One day, even the scars I've made at the corners of my eyes
理不尽に立ち向かった証だから
It's proof that I faced the absurdity head-on,
いつかハッピーエンドになるまで
Until one day it leads to a happy ending.
世界を相手に戦うの
I'm fighting against the world,
こんな乱暴な私をずっと
For always loving this rough version of me.
愛してくれてありがとう
Thank you for loving me just as I am.
これはバッドエンドなんかじゃない
This isn't a bad ending at all.
どこに居たとしても私は
No matter where I am, I am
あなたの唯一無二のオリジナル
Your one and only original.
誇らしく生きるよ
Living with pride in my heart.
さあ在るべき場所に帰ろう
Now, let's return to where we belong.
さよならを告げたセブンティーン
Goodbye spoken at seventeen
