Surely, in everyone’s heart, there is hidden somewhere
Something that holds darkness
Sometimes, it obstructs us from living the way we wish
By creating another side of ourselves
We can never fathom the pain others feel
And it’s tough to share it with them
But if we still wish to
Face the other person straight on
And because we’ve met people, we don’t want to be afraid
The door to your heart closed with a violent sound
And if the key to open it had already been lost
To the long ago past
Then just use ordinary words
Or commonplace expressions
Let go of everything, be as you are
And let me hear it from you
Resound it to me
Definitely, to believe in things without shape
Which cannot be reflected in the eyes
Can be very frightening, but if we can do so
Won’t that be a wonderful thing?
Even in the centre of this grey city
Where it has become impossible to hold onto our true spirits
Even if that’s the case
Don’t smile at me without energy
As if you have given up
A person who only gets everything they want
Without having to sacrifice anything
Tell me, does this person exist?
Hey, no matter how much I want it
I’ll never get it again
This lost thing which I yearn for
You are the one who has it
The door to your heart closed with a violent sound
And if the key to open it had already been lost
To the long ago past
Then just use ordinary words
Or commonplace expressions
Let go of everything, be as you are
And let me hear it from you
A person who only gets everything they want
Without having to sacrifice a single thing
Tell me, does this person exist?
Hey, no matter how much I want it
I’ll never get it again
This lost thing which I yearn for
You are the one who has it
And that is so dazzling

KANJI
誰もがきっと心の どこかに隠された
闇を持っているもの
それが時々邪魔して 思う様に生きれない
自分を創るの
人の痛みは計り知れないからね
分け合う事もなかなか難しいね
だけどねもしもちゃんと
向き合いたいと思える
人に出会えたなら怯えたくない
激しい音立てて 閉ざした心の扉
開く鍵なんてもうずっと遠い日に
見失ったのなら
ありきたりな言葉とか
ありふれた表現でいい
何も包まれていないそのままを
あなたから聞かせて
私へ響かせて
決して目には映らない 形のないものを
信じてみる事は
とても恐くもあるけど それが出来るのなら
素晴らしい事ね
正気保っていられなくなりそうな
こんな灰色の街の真ん中でも
そんなもんなんだって
何か諦めたように
力なく笑ったりしないで
何も犠牲にせず欲しいものだけを全て
手に入れる事が出来た人だなんて
どこにいるって言うの
ねぇどんなに望んでも
二度とは手に入らない
私が失った憧れのものを
あなたは持っている
激しい音立てて閉ざした心の扉
開く鍵なんてもうずっと遠い日に
見失ったのなら
ありきたりな言葉とか
ありふれた表現でいい
何も包まれていないそのままを
あなたから聞かせて
何ひとつ犠牲にせず欲しいものだけを全て
手に入れる事が出来た人だなんて
どこにいるって言うの
ねぇどんなに望んでも
二度とは手に入らない
私が失った憧れのものを
あなたは持っている
それがとても眩しい
