1.Sometimes my chest sinks and I can’t feel the future anymore
2.Sometimes it feels like time has stopped, like it’s already all over3.
4.I shut myself away, couldn’t speak, and slowly an umbrella opened inside my heart
5.Even so, I kept living while pretending to be strong6.
7.I won’t ask to be comforted
8.I want to grow stronger and keep looking ahead
9.But my weakness keeps crushing me10.
11.When I met you, the world overflowed and you gave me light
12.I—who didn’t have even a little hope—found myself smiling
13.Through casual conversations, you kept giving me smiles
14.You blush and laugh when I say “thank you,” so I won’t say it
15.But I’m thinking it
16.Will I be able to move forward from here?17.
18.Light, come to me19.
20.Even if we can’t meet, when time passes and I think of you
21.We’re still laughing together, unchanged22.
23.As if this time were a lie, color returns to the blank space
24.The second hand plays its rhythm as it ticks on25.
26.I can’t even bring myself to let it all out
27.In this world, you accept everything about me and wrap me up completely28.
29.Feeling pathetic, ashamed, wanting to run away
30.I can’t stand the thought of losing to myself over and over again
31.These unbearable everyday days surely hold the key
32.And even weakness can become something precious
33.Beyond that, strength is waiting
34.That’s what you taught me
35.Yeah… I’m sure of it36.
37.It’s still dark, I can’t see the light
38.If I stop here
39.Nothing will change
40.And the chains will simply rot away41.
42.Chasing unfulfilled dreams, holding back tears
43.The road I walked leaves proud footprints behind
44.Leaving signposts, I dream of a sky dyed blue, burying the darkness45.
46.Sometimes I stop and live by deceiving my fear
47.And beyond that I glimpse something dazzling—a dream? an illusion?48.
49.When I met you, the world overflowed and you gave me light
50.I—who didn’t have even a little hope—found myself smiling
51.Through casual conversations, you kept giving me smiles
52.You blush and laugh when I say “thank you,” so I won’t say it
53.But I’m thinking it
54.From here on, let’s keep facing forward55.
56.Light, come to me
