We smirk when the shadows come out
Our voices are halted, obediently
When the light shines
Yet we can’t even touch it
Ridiculous stories have come true
Crawling on the ground, then racing about
No matter how deep we dive, the root of the matter escapes us
We turn our backs on the world and run forward
That’s all we can do
That’s enough for us right now
But let me speak
Careless days
What you know?
Butting into our business, though you don’t know a thing
Careless days
What you want?
All you folks without class
We don’t act tough because we’re weak
We act tough because we’ve weakened
Nobody needs to see the process we go through to keep our hearts standing strong
Hey!!
Careless days
What you know?
Butting into our business, though you don’t know a thing
Careless days
What you want?
All you folks without class
Careless days
What you know?
Wounding us with words bought in bulk
Careless days
What you want?
You’ve just convinced yourself you’re decent people
The words we poured in became like a sea
And swallowed up our troubling emotions
Before we swallowed them ourselves
Just like that, except not at all
The bundled words come to our lips
But surely, no one knows which of them are right
Everyone is convinced that they’re right without realizing they’ve made mistakes
So before we write it off as something that can’t be helped, we make it into a song, and reflect upon ourselves
We have to keep living on, that’s the way it goes, after all
We entrust our bodies to that which we believe in
Careless days
What you know?
You’ll probably forget it by tomorrow
Careless days
What you want?
All you folks without class
Careless days
What you know?
Knocking with worn-out words
Careless days
What you know?
Saying you’re decent people, without reflecting upon yourselves
