Lyrics


たとえば明日(あす)がこないとしたら
僕が生きた過去も今も
ゼロになり
無意味な物になるかな?
時間(とき)を上を立ち止まり 君が問いかける
雪が溶けて消えるように
僕の命が終わりがあって
だからこそ 輝ける
僕らの見えない未来
強く生きて 最期は笑っていたいから
うわべの友情や愛情なら
僕はもういらない
人は死ぬ前に 何かを
思い出すというのなら
僕は人を愛したことを思い出すだろう
雪が溶けて消えるように
僕の命が終わりがあって
だからこそ 歌える
僕らの見えない未来
光放ち始める
just be dreaming, shining
青空が最期につけた言葉の色
僕に答えをくれた
a life is mine
考えすぎ ためらいの後悔
何もしないよりは
充実の後悔を
いつまでも 続けて願っても
僕の命は終わりがあって
だからこそ 輝ける
今と向き合う意味を
声をからし 叫んでるから
僕らの生きていく世界は
毒もあって 時に愛も踏みにじられる
それでも 最期の日に
愛されたことを思い出せますように
青空が最期につけた言葉の色
僕に答えをくれた
a life is mine
考えすぎ ためらいの後悔
何もしないよりは
全てをかけて生きたい

If tomorrow were to never come,
the past and present I lived
would be reduced to zero
Would I then be meaningless?
I ask you as time stands still
Like the vanishing melting snow,
my life shall someday end
That's why I've got to shine now
I want to live strong and smile when
the conclusion of the unseen future comes for me
I don't need
superficial friendship or love
If people are to remember something
right before they die,
then I want to remember that I loved humanity
Like the melting snow fading away,
my life has an end
That's why I'm singing now
A burst of light has started
from the future we cannot see
just be dreaming, shining
The blue sky left a trace of these words' hues
and they have given me an answer
a life is mine (my life is mine)
I think too much and regret my hesitation
But doing nothing at all
is the ultimate regret
Even if I wish for everything to remain the same,
there will be a time when my life will end
That's why I'm shining now
My reasons for going forward in the present
makes my voice hoarse with my shouts
The world we live in now
has got its poisons; sometimes, even love gets trampled on
Even so, I prey to the last of my days
that it it will be remembered as a place of love
The hues of these words that were left in the blue sky
gave me my answer
a life is mine (my life is mine)
I think too much and regret my procrastination
Rather do nothing about it,
I want to live my life to its fullest
