Lyrics
Japanese Rōmaji Translation

見詰めてた淡い願いを描き
何故震えている?
孤独を抱え少年は晴天の空に何も無いことの意味を

何故に理念は春
はるか遠い約束の声　もう聞こえやしないさ

流れ形を変えてゆき消える
今も心奪われ焼け付く鎖の跡　うらぶれた声　此処に独り

何故に理念は春
はるか遠い約束の声　もう聞こえやしないさ

This is my pledge to you
まだ上手く生きられないさ　変えられるのはただ…

明日に生かされても
何も変わるはずのない日々　まだ終われない

こみ上げる心がまだ咲くのなら　答えてみろよ

誰も癒せやしない

Mitsumeteta awai negai o egaki
Naze furuete iru?
Kodoku o kakae shōnen wa seiten no sora ni nanimo nai koto no imi o

Naze ni rinen wa haru
Haruka tōi yakusoku no koe　Mō kikoeyashinai sa

Nagare katachi o kaeteyuki kieru
Ima mo kokoro ubaware yaketsuku kusari no ato　Urabureta koe　Koko ni hitori

Naze ni rinen wa haru
Haruka tōi yakusoku no koe　Mō kikoeyashinai sa

This is my pledge to you
Mada umaku ikirarenai sa　Kaerareru no wa tada…

Asu ni ikasaretemo
Nanimo kawaru hazu no nai hibi　Mada owarenai

Komiageru kokoro ga mada saku no nara　Kotaete miro yo

Daremo iyaseyashinai

I vision the small wish I had been gazing

Why are you shivering?
The lonely boy looks up at the sunny sky that carries no meaning

Where is the philosophy of spring?
The long lost promise
It can not be heard anymore

As time goes by, it changes shape and disappears
Even now after my heart was taken and rotted
My miserable voice
I am alone

Where is the philosophy of spring?
The long lost promise
It can not be heard anymore

This is my pledge to you
I can't live successfully yet
But I think I can change…

Even if tomorrow lets me live
The days will not change
It will not end

If my full blown heart blooms again
Then answer me

I can't comfort anybody

These lyrics were translated by Emi Yamada.
