English Translation
For how long have I not wanted to let go of the light flickering in my heart?
Even if I take the long way around, even if I stumble
It’s always, always shining here…
The toll of the bell that I heard in the distance sounded a bit sad
Once more, with strength, I ran sky-high past it this time
The repeating reality and my wishes that are as numerous as the stars
can’t overcome my feelings about having found the tomorrow that I must aim for
I don’t care even if the open, boundless world before my eyes is imaginary
Even if I stay lost, my feelings will always, always echo loudly deep in my heart
The dream I had on the night when I threw off my childish ribbons
was about spending idyllic days in a shining city
Aiming for a place where I won’t get hurt, I only sought for wings
But I wish there’s something, just one thing, on my back to protect
I’d like to stay this way, having felt the world getting vibrant and colorful, little by little
The color of smiles and the color of encounters will change more and more
Holding no answers yet trying to aim for them
So ugly yet never giving up
I’ll keep believing that I certainly do resemble this world
You don’t have to fear the future that came into sight with your new-found tears
I’m certain, I’m certain that it’ll overlap with the scenery you searched for in your heartache
I don’t care
even if the open, boundless, and unlimited world before my eyes
is imaginary
Even if I stay lost, my feelings will always, always echo loudly
deep in my heart
Always, always echoing…
Quietly, quietly shining…
