Sono yume wa kokoro no ibasho
Inochi yori kowareyasuki mono
Nando demo sutete wa mitsuke
Yasuraka ni saa nemure
Myakuutsu shoudou ni negai wa okasare
Wasurete shimau hodo mata omoidasu yo
Kono utsukushiki zankoku na sekai de wa
Mada ikiteiru koto "naze" to tou bakari de
Aa boku-tachi wa kono tsuyosa yowasa de
Nani wo mamoru no darou mou risei nado
Nai naraba
Ano sora wa setsunai no darou
Maiagaru hai to shinkirou
Atatakai kotoba ni kogoe
Hitoshirezu saa nemure
Nebatsuku gensou ni nageki wa kakusare
Chigitte shimau hodo mata karamitsuku yo
Kono utsukushiki zankoku na sekai de wa
Tada shinde yuku koto "mate" to kou bakari de
Aa boku-tachi wa kazamidori tobezu ni
Shinjitsu wa uso yori kirei ka dou ka
Wakaranai
Moshimo bokura uta naraba
Ano kaze ni ho wo age
Mayowazu ni tada dareka no moto he
Kibou wo todoke ni yuku no ni
Kono utsukushiki zankoku na sekai de wa
Mada ikiteiru koto "naze" to tou bakari de
Aa boku-tachi wa kono tsuyosa yowasa de
Nani wo mamoru no darou mou risei nado
Nai naraba

That dream is where my heart belongs,
and it's something more fragile than my life.
Again and again, I abandoned and then rediscovered it.
Now sleep peacefully.
With my wish being ravished by my pounding heartbeats,
as soon as I'm on the verge of forgetting it, I immediately recall it.
In this beautiful cruel world,
we merely keep on asking "why" we're alive and living...
Ah, with this strength and this weakness,
if we no longer possess any rationality,
just what are we protecting?
Isn't that sky depressing?
The ashes and mirages swirl up in the sky.
Freeze solid to the warm words,
now sleep discreetly.
With my sigh being hid away by my clingy fantasies,
as soon as it's about to break free, it's pinned down again.
In this beautiful cruel world,
we merely keep on begging death to wait a little longer...
Ah, no different from the flightless weathercock,
we will not understand
whether truths are prettier than lies.
If only we were songs,
we would be able to sail at full speed in the wind,
and bring hope without fail
to someone out there.

we merely keep on asking "why" we're alive and living...
