Lyrics[]
Nemure nai yoru ni kiita monogatari ga esoragoto dato shitara
Eien wo shiru yori kairaku wo motomete
Ima wo kuyande shimau nowa
Kokoro no fukaku ni sumi tsuita kage kara
Nigeru tame dato shitara
Sore demo atashi wa atashi wo aishite irareru nara
Hanbun ni wareta taiyou ga asa wo tsurete kite
Yami ni nareta shinkei wo jiwari shigeki suru
Oki wasureta nounai wa aete sono mama de
Shinario no kieta monogatari da
Jiyuu ni jiyuu ni kaji wo totte motto takaku e mai agatte
Kime tsuketa kotae no uragawa de naiteru
Ano ko no koe wa kikoe nai
Kanjou nante dare ka no sabita monosashi de
Hakaru mono dewa nai darou
Dare no tame janaku atashi wa atashi ga
Ima wo warau tame ni kizu wo kaku shiteru
Sukoshi kareta koe de esoragoto wo utau
Ima koko ni aru mono ga subete da
Hanbun ni wareta taiyou de mata kyou ga hajimaru
Monogatari no tsuzuki wa kono te no naka
Aisareru koto ga ketsumatsu janai kara
Mita sareru dake ja tari nai deshou
Jiyuu ni jiyuu ni kaji wo totte motto tooku e tori ni natte
Jiyuu ni jiyuu ni kaji wo totte motto takaku e hoshi ni natte
眠れない夜に聞いた物語が絵空事だとしたら
永遠を知るより快楽を求めて
今を悔やんでしまうのは
ココロの深くに棲みついた影から
逃げるためだとしたら
それでもあたしはあたしを愛していられるなら
半分に割れた太陽が朝を連れてきて
闇に慣れた神経をじわり刺激する
置き忘れた脳内はあえてそのままで
シナリオの消えた物語だ
自由に自由に舵を取って もっと高くへ舞い上がって
決め付けた答えの裏側で泣いてる
あの子の声は聞こえない
感情なんてだれかの錆びた物差しで
測るものではないだろう
だれのためじゃなくあたしはあたしが
今を笑うために傷を隠してる
少し枯れた声で絵空事を歌う
今ここにあるものがすべてだ
半分に割れた太陽でまた今日が始まる
物語の続きはこの手の中
愛されることが結末じゃないから
満たされるだけじゃ足りないでしょう
自由に自由に舵を取って もっと遠くへ鳥になって
自由に自由に舵を取って もっと高くへ星になって
If the stories I heard on the nights I couldn’t sleep were fantasies
Rather than eternity, I sought pleasure
What if I am regretting the present
Because I want to escape from the shadow
Residing deep inside my heart
Even so, if I can still love myself
A sun that’s split into half brings morning with it
Slowly stimulating my nerves, which are used to the dark
I’d just leave whatever was forgotten in my brain as it is
A story with vanished scripts
Steering freely, freely, going higher up
I can’t hear the voice of the girl
Who is crying behind the unchangeable answer
Emotions are not things
That can be measured by someone’s rusty ruler, right?
I will hide my scars, not for anyone else
But for myself, so that I can laugh in the present
Singing about my fantasies in a slightly hoarse voice
All that’s here now is my everything
With the sun split into half, the day begins again
The continuation to this story is in my hands
Being loved is not the end
Because it’s not enough to just be filled with love, right
Steering freely, freely, flying farther and becoming a bird
Steering freely, freely, going higher and becoming a star
