誰か助けて欲しい…そんなふうに願っても
何も変わらないこと頭ではわかってる
 dareka tasukete hoshii... sonna fuu ni negattemo
 nanimo kawaranai koto atama dewa wakatte'ru
    Someone come save me....
    Even if I desired that in my heart,
    In my mind, I understand
    That nothing will change.

怯え閉ざされた時間　ココを壊さなきゃ
 obietozasareta jikan   KOKO wo kowasanakya
    All this time spent shut away in fear,
    We've got to break up this place here!

太陽が虹を誘った
雨がやんだら笑顔になれる
僕たちはいつまでも同じ場所には
いられない未来-あす-に行こう
 taiyou ga niji wo sasotta
 ame ga yandara egao ni nareru
 boku-tachi wa itsumademo onaji basho ni wa
 irarenai asu ni yukou
    The sun called forth a rainbow,
    After the rain stops, we'll be able to smile,
    We can't stay in the same place forever,
    So let's go towards tomorrow [1]

何を怖がってるの?自分に問いかけてみる
好きな人　守ってるモノ失くすことかな
 nani wo kowagatteru no? jibun ni toikakete miru
 suki na hito   mamotteru MONO nakusu koto kana
    'What are you afraid of?'
    I try asking myself,
    Perhaps it's of losing the people I like
    And the things I have to protect.

きっと孤独な誰もが　ココロ満たさなきゃ
 kitto kodoku na daremo ga   KOKORO mitasanakya
    Surely, everyone feels some loneliness
    We've got to fill up our hearts!

太陽が月を照らした
つながってると教えるように
僕たちはこの先も見えない絆
たぐり寄せ未来-あす-に行く
 taiyou ga tsuki wo terashita
 tsunagatte'ru to oshieru you ni
 boku-tachi wa kono saki mo mienai kizuna
 taguriyose asu ni yuku
    The sun shines forth on the moon
    As if telling me that the two are connected
    Let's hang onto those same invisible bonds between us
    As we go towards tomorrow

宇宙-そら-が手を広げ　君もおいでよと手招いた…
 sora ga te wo hiroge   kimi mo oide yo to temaneita...
    The broad sky opens its arms [2]
    Beckoning you, too, to come....

太陽が叫ぶ暗号
生きているから痛みを知った
僕たちを待ち受ける未来-あす-に向かって
笑顔で歩いて行こう
 taiyou ga sakebu angou
 ikite iru kara itami wo shitta
 boku-tachi wo machiukeru asu ni mukatte
 egao de aruite yukou
    The sun shouts out a secret code
    I live each day, so I know your pain
    Facing the tomorrow that awaits us
    Let's walk forward with a smile.
