"An interested stranger asked me How do I see the scenery from here? I reply It's how you think it would be. It's useless to explain Everybody GO! Everybody JUMP!"

"My lips told a lie For a trivial reason It wasn't for anyone else But only to protect myself And I didn't think about anyone else"

"But I escaped from reality Escaped from the pain I said to myself "Some day, I'll be as I should be Though I'm far from there now" After such excuses, my eyes were opened All I could do was to live in the present time."

"Yayayaya Gagagaga Dadadada Wowowowo Yayayaya Gagagaga Dadadada Wowowowo Even if you think you are too bold It's all fine In all honesty, I'm hesitant To be prudent and reserved OK, together now, "Bold & Delicious!" Don't watch me quietly, stand up please, "Bold & Delicious!""

"I feel most miserable When I can't step "step up to the plate" You know? People often say Regret from doing it is better than regret for not doing it"

"This is a common case, seriously, It looks like a fight with him But she's really fighting with herself."

"If you are afraid of changes Watch from a distance Whether or not I might do something If you're going to talk about me behind my back It is what it is."

"It is sad To lose sight of myself for the sake of myself I believe in scenery no one has ever seen, And next to you, I wish to stay in that place that doesn't exist"

"Daybreak comes quickly nowadays The scent of wind has changed It seems familiar yet unfamiliar It makes my heartbeat quicker It's sweet and sad We ran along the road to the sea Screaming with laughter innocently In the far-away summer days"

"It was not coincidental that we chose what's left If the universe has a will I think we are part of it Tender and precious How many times have I searched for something Found and lost it Since then?"

"Why are you ashamed of yourself? What happens after that? But I really like your way of walking In which you head straight and always hit a wall."

"I feel that these glass shoes are too fragile for running through this era."

"Just because this age is full of information and temptations We should decide on our own You know That creation comes after destruction"

"Reality will always deceive us But in that, you see, only your answer is hidden If you feel you have not seen it It is something you brought about with your own hands."

"This summer, our new journey begins I sense a slight discomfort in the distance We saw that place in our dreams Today, let's find the road there again."

"Where does this road lead? And where does it go from there? Even if I imagine [the possibilities] Of course, I have no clue. I feel the more I wish to be strong The weaker my heart becomes In inverse proportion"

"We notice it the moment our eyes meet someone else's We feel it when coming into contact with him [or her] But then once We feel weak in the knees The wind strokes my cheeks and makes it feel real And whispering quietly That this is not an illusion at all"

"On that day, you decided That you would walk by yourself On the endless road that crosses the clouds [and leads] to the sky Leaving so much here I want to tell you and talk about."

"What if everyone goes on the endless road Sooner or later Over the clouds to the sky Be sure to wait for me. And then, we will talk away About our countless memories."

"I was forgiven by forgiving many things Including my long-ago childhood I was healed, but I intended [to] heal I've just noticed, the way I was saved by love Though I tried to keep love away."

"Because we want the same happiness We keep carving the same wounds onto our hearts. Forever, forever So I won't forget you I call you over and over again Please don't cry any more I won't leave you alone."
