These unchanging days
Another day wasted in vain
Nothing goes well
Because I don’t even know what to do
I’m tired of my stubbornness
I’ve had enough of hearing “seriously uncool”
A far-too-distant detour
A lonely night with wet pillows
Is there such a thing as fate?
A soap bubble reflecting reality
Looking out from the train window at the shining earth
I wish this were a dream, it’s been enough
Time doesn’t stop, it keeps changing
Putting on a brave face, always smiling
Overlaying ideals and reality
A night where I learned my own weakness
I kept saying, someday, someday
Everyone, everyone, I looked down on them
Surely, surely, I believed it would come true
The path I’ve taken, my own way
There’s only this one straight road
A lonely night with wet pillows
My part-time pay disappeared on transportation fees
The big city that doesn’t help me
I have no good points at all, but
I can’t forget that night
I walked, hiding my tears, on the way back home
Being told “you can’t do it”
It’s still in the back of my mind
Being pointed at and laughed at
It’s still in the back of my mind
It’s stupid for me to say, but
Because I’m stupid, I can say it
Things I took for granted
I realize after losing them
I felt like I could be honest with myself
I walked, looking only at what was ahead
That day that made me stronger
My story starts from here
I can’t forget that night
I walked, hiding my tears, on the way back home
I used to blame others, listing my complaints
The tears I shed without accepting reality
Turning everything into motivation
Using frustration as a springboard
No matter what happens, I’m just me
Everything’s gonna be all right.
