When I see someone less fortunate
Than myself, I feel comforted
When I see someone happier
Than myself, I suddenly feel irritated

But surely, I mean, sometimes
I can’t help but notice how
Pathetic I look, and it clashes with my reality

Just how should I think?
What should I say?
You were the first person
Who tried to understand
This side of me

There is no way a person can live alone
In order to prevent themselves from hurting others

If I can think of myself as a sacrifice
Then I just have to be prepared
To pretend till the very end, even should I lose everything

What are you wishing for tomorrow?
Do you think we can overcome
Even the longest nights
Extending endlessly into darkness?
I wish you’d tell me someday

Just how should I think?
What should I say?
They praise me highly
Am envious of me
But I don’t know if they even understand

Just how should I think?
What should I say?
You are surely the only person
Who really understands
This side of me

Jibun yori mo fukou na hito wo
Mite wa sukoshi nagusame rare
Jibun yori mo shiawase na hito
Mitsuketa nara kyuu ni asetteru

Dakedo kitto dakara tokidoki
Dou shiyou mo naku mijime na sugata ni
Ki ga tsuite genjitsu ni butsukaru

Watashi wa nani wo omoeba ii
Watashi wa nante ittara ii
Konna watashi no koto
Wakarou to suru nante
Kimi ga hajimete datta

Hitori toshite kizu mo tsukezu ni
Ikiteku nante dekiru wake mo nai

Giseisha da nante omou nara
Subete nakushitemo kamawanai kakugo de
Saigo made enjikireba ii

Kimi ga nani wo asu he to negai
Kuraku tsuzuku donna ni nagai
Yoru sae mo koete
Ikou to omoeru no ka
Itsuka kikasete hoshii

Watashi wa nani wo omoeba ii
Watashi wa nante ittara ii
Motehaya sareta tte
Urayamareta tte
Wakatteru no ka sae wakaranai

Watashi wa nani wo omoeba ii
Watashi wa nante ittara ii
Konna watashi no koto
Wakatte kureru no nante
Kitto kimi dake dakara

自分よりも不幸なヒトを
見ては少し 慰められ
自分よりも幸せなヒト
見つけたなら 急に焦ってる

だけどきっと だから時々
どうしようもなく 惨めな姿に
気が付いて 現実にぶつかる

私は何を想えばいい
私は何て言ったらいい
こんな私の事
解ろうとするなんて
君が初めてだった

ひとりとして 傷も付けずに
生きてくなんて 出来るわけもない

犠牲者だなんて思うなら
全て失くしても 構わない覚悟で
最後まで演じきればいい

君が何を明日へと願い
暗く続くどんなに長い
夜さえも超えて
行こうと思えるのか
いつか聞かせて欲しい

私は何を想えばいい
私は何て言ったらいい
もてはやされたって
羨まれたって
解ってるのかさえ解らない

私は何を想えばいい
私は何て言ったらいい
こんな私の事
解ってくれるのなんて
きっと君だけだから
