Kanji:

夢なんて叶うわけないしやりたくないこと山積みで

鬱になる日も多くてもう嫌になるな

自分だけにしかできやしない才能があると思ってた

案外出来る人がいるから参るな

さあ明日のため何をするか

誰よりも愛してる

そんな尺度で計るもんじゃない

うぬぼれていただけかも

この喉から迸る血のような歌

このまま出血多量になる

常にぎりぎりだ　戦いは続いていく

否応気持ちも高ぶって眠れない

バイト明けの練習は辛い

睡眠時間も足りてない

ろくに何も食べてないし腹減ったな

それを夢にしようとしてる奴が考えることじゃない

邪念は捨てギターを引いて歌うよ

さあ明日のため心を込めて

なああたしが頑張ってないように見えたりするかい

ならもっと頑張らなきゃ

わずかに大気を揺らすちっぽけな歌

まだまだ誰にも届かない

夢は遠いよ　そんなことわかっている

それでも選ぶよ　誰のため？　あたしのため

難しいことばかり　人生だもんな　壮大すぎてわからない

今どこに立ってるのかすら　どっちを見てるか

とりあえず歩きだそうか

この喉から迸る血のような歌

誰かに届くよう祈ってる

これから描く軌跡を思い浮かべよう

そうすりゃ眠れない夜だって夢が見れる

さあ夜も明けてくる頃だし仮眠とって学校行かなきゃ

テストもあるらしいがなんてことない

外に出た　星が綺麗だな

あたしを迎えてくれたような気がして大声で答えてしまうんだ

さあ明日のため歌を作るか

English:

There’s no way my dream could come true and

there’s a whole lot of things I’d rather not do!

There are many days I feel depressed – I just can’t take it!

I believed I had a talent belonging to no one but me,

But there are more capable people out there than I’d thought – 

I just don’t know anymore…

What should I do for the sake of tomorrow then?

“I love it more than anyone!”:

But it’s not something you can measure with that sort of scale –

I might have just been too self-centered…

From my throat comes a song like gushing blood –

At this rate, I’m sure to bleed out!

Already at my limit, my fight goes on and on,

As feelings I’ve yet to decide upon build up, keeping me from sleep!

Going straight to practice after work is rough,

I’m not getting enough sleep,

And I haven’t really eaten anything – I’m so hungry!

But that’s not something those who make this their dream should be thinking,

So I’ll cast away my wicked thoughts, play my guitar, and sing a song!

I’ll put my heart into it for tomorrow’s sake!

Hey, do I seem like I might not be giving it my best?

Then I’ll just have to try harder!

This tiny little song that lightly sways the atmosphere,

Is still unable to reach anyone.

My dream is far off – I know that already!

But I’ll still choose to follow it: for who’s sake? For my sake!

Everything is so difficult – it’s life after all! 

Everything’s so overwhelming, I lose my perspective…

Where am I even standing? Where am I looking toward?

I might as well just start walking for now.

From my throat comes a song like gushing blood –

I’m praying it will reach someone!

I gotta try to envision the path I’ll create from here on out;

That way, I can even dream on nights I can’t sleep!

Well, it’s about time for night to break – 

gotta take a quick nap and head to school!

I hear there’s gonna be a test, but that’s nothing to worry about!

The stars appearing outside are so pretty;

I get the feeling they’ve come to greet me and 

I end up responding in a loud voice.

I might as well make a song for tomorrow’s sake!
