Lyrics[]
Nemuri ni tsuku mae no kasuka na itami nara
Kowashita koi ima mo hahen no mama
Fukai yoru ni magireru hodo tooku nai
Toiki dake de kazaritaku nai kioku
Ukitatsu kokoro ga kowaku natta dake
Jibun ga mienaku narisou de
Ano moeru you na hibi
Sayonara to senaka mukete tojikometa
Nani ga tarinakute doko de machigaete
Dono gurai tsuyogatte ita no
Mada deguchi no mienai
Meiro no mannaka de hiza wo kakaete iru
Mado no soto no kehai yoru ga toori-sugiru
Toki wo modosu koto wa dekinai kara
Awai iro no gikochinai yume no you ni
Kyou to ashita no sukima de nayande 'ru
Ooku wo motomete kizutsuketaku nai
Sonna kotoba de nigeta dake
Ima jibun no yowasa wo
Kakusu yori mo massugu ni uketomete
Tarinakatta mono machigaeta basho mo
Kasuka na itami ga oshiete 'ru
Sou yoru ga uchiakeru tabi
Atarashii jibun wo sagashite arukidasu
If there is some ache before sleep comes
It is the broken love which even now remains in pieces
They are not so distant that they be mistaken for the deep night
The memories I do not want to be adorned just with sighs
This floating heart has become scary
It seems like it will cease to see itself
To those days that look as if they were in flames
I say farewell and turn my back
Something is not enough somewhere I had made a mistake
No matter how much I bluff
I cannot yet see the exit
In the center of a maze I clutch my knees
Outside the window the night passes too much
For time cannot be returned
Like a pale dream
The gap between today and tomorrow troubles me
I ask for much I do not want to be hurt
Only escaping those words
Now rather than hiding my frailty
Head on I take it all in
The thing not enough the place where I had erred
They teach a little pain
When the day breaks
I walk on to search for a new self
To be added
