Lyrics (TV Size)
Kanji= いつも強がって背伸びして苦しんでいたんでしょ? 本当はコワくって淋しかったんだ

空想現実狭間に迷い込んで あっちの世界こっちの世界もうわけが分からなくなって 躓いたときにすべてが止まって 咽び泣いた 許せないくらい自分を責め続けてたんです

明日が来るのは当たり前じゃない だから揺らぐ気持ちも無理もない 分かり合えたあの時の感動 今も忘れはしないよ 流行と徐々に衰退 遠ざかる日に背を向けかけた もう二度と振り向きはしないだろう

いつもぶつかって悔しくて躓いていたんでしょ? 本当は辛くって逃げたかったんだ いつになってその答えが分かるようになって そう前を向けた気がしたの It's sometimes better take detours Ah~ Now we can do it Rōmaji= Itsumo tsuyogatte senobishite kurushinde itan deshou? Hontou wa kowakutte sabishikattanda

Kuusou genjitsu hazama ni mayoikonde Acchi no sekai kocchi no sekai mou wake ga wakaranaku natte Tsumazuita toki ni subete ga tomatte Musebinaita Yurusenai kurai jibun wo seme tsuzuketetandesu

Asu ga kuru no wa atarimae janai Dakara uragu kimochi mo muri mo nai Wakariaeta ano toki no kandou Ima mo wasure wa shinai yo Ryuukou to jojo ni suitai Toozakaru hi ni se wo mukekaketa Mou nidoto furimuki wa shinai darou

Itsumo butsukatte kuyashikute tsumazuite itan deshou? Hontou wa tsurakutte nigetakattanda Otsu ni natte sono kotae ga wakaru you ni natte Sou mae wo muketa ki ga shita no It's sometimes better take detours Ah~ Now we can do it English translation= We've probably just always been playing tough, standing on our tip-toes and suffering all the way When we were really just scared and lonely

Wandering in to the divide between fantasy and reality The world beyond, our world, I can't really tell the difference any more Whenever I tripped, everything would stop I'd choke up with tears to an unforgivable degree and never stop beating myself up for it

There's no certainty that tomorrow will come So it makes sense to feel uneasy But I'll still never forget The feeling of us understanding one another back then Gradually going out of fashion I turned my back on those days getting further away And I'll probably never look back on them again

We've probably just always been running against it, struggling and tripping along the way When we were really in pain and just wanted to flee After coming to understand the answer to it all Yeah, I get the feeling I can start looking forward It's sometimes better to take detours Ah~ Now we can do it

Kanji= 空想現実狭間に迷い込んで あっちの世界こっちの世界もうわけが分からなくなって 躓いたときにすべてが止まって 咽び泣いた 許せないくらい自分を責め続けてたんです

明日が来るのは当たり前じゃない だから揺らぐ気持ちも無理もない 分かり合えたあの時の感動 今も忘れはしないよ 流行と徐々に衰退 遠ざかる日に背を向けかけた もう二度と振り向きはしないだろう

いつも強がって背伸びして苦しんでいたんでしょ? 本当はコワくって淋しかったんだ いつになってその気持ちが分かるようになって そう強くなれた気がしたの I know that we aren't strong But we can take step Now we can do it

許せない事の方がよく目立って見えて 勘違いやすれ違いで遠ざかる人達で溢れて 思い返す度にすべてが止まって 啜り泣いた 許せないくらいあの頃を見つめてたんです

いつもぶつかって悔しくて躓いていたんでしょ? 本当は辛くって逃げたかったんだ いつになってその答えが分かるようになって そう前を向けた気がしたの It's sometimes better take detours

Who are you there just like me? Who are you there just like me? When I nearly refused myself When I was doubted and abused Who are you there just like me? Who are you there just like me? One day you came out from my shadow

We never wanted Do what he wants We never wanted Do what he wants He don't know me But made us to dance

いつも寄り添って語り合って 終わらないと思ってた 永遠て言葉の本当の意味は?

いつも強がって背伸びして苦しんでいたんでしょ? 本当はコワくって淋しかったんだ いつになってその気持ちが分かるようになって そう強くなれた気がしたの

いつもぶつかって悔しくて躓いていたんでしょ? 本当は辛くて逃げたかったんだ いつになってその答えが分かるようになって そう前を向けた気がしたの It's sometimes better take detours Ah~ Now we can do it Rōmaji= Kuusou genjitsu hazama ni mayoikonde Acchi no sekai kocchi no sekai mou wake ga wakaranaku natte Tsumazuita toki ni subete ga tomatte Musebinaita Yurusenai kurai jibun wo seme tsuzuketetandesu

We've probably just always been playing tough, standing on our tip-toes and suffering all the way When we were really just scared and lonely Through coming to understand this feeling out of nowhere Yeah, I feel like I’ve gotten a little stronger I know that we aren't strong But we can take step Now we can do it

Things you can't forgive always seem to stand out more So we're surrounded by people building distance through mistakes and misunderstandings When I'd look back, everything would stop I’d be looking back at that time When I was sobbing to an unforgivable degree

We've probably just always been running against it, struggling and tripping along the way When we were really in pain and just wanted to flee After coming to understand the answer to it all Yeah, I get the feeling I can start looking forward It's sometimes better take detours

Who are you there just like me? Who are you there just like me? When I nearly refused myself When I was doubted and abused Who are you there just like me? Who are you there just like me? One day you came out from my shadow

We never wanted Do what he wants We never wanted Do what he wants He don't know me But he made us to dance

We always came together and shared our stories I never thought it would end What's the real meaning of the word "eternity" anyway?

We've probably just always been playing tough, standing on our tip-toes and suffering all the way When we were really just scared and lonely Through coming to understand this feeling out of nowhere Yeah, I feel like I've gotten a little stronger

We've probably just always been running against it, struggling and tripping along the way When we were really in pain and just wanted to flee After coming to understand the answer to it all Yeah, I get the feeling I can start looking forward It's sometimes better take detours Ah~ Now we can do it
