Is something wrong?
Why are you over there worrying?
What hurts?
Why are you trembling so much?
Asking all these questions
Might only be a bother to you
But I still wonder if there’s something I can do
Whenever you’re feeling lost, from the bottom of your heart
We don’t know anything about the future to come
Because there are no rules, no matter where you look, so
It’s okay to say you like the things you like
It’s okay to do the things that you like
I’m sure there’s at least one thing
That sleeps deep within your heart
It might be love
Or it might be hatred
It’s okay for you to choose
When you’re belittled or looked down upon
Sometimes it won’t stop bothering you
But being aware of how people are looking at you
Isn’t really such a bad thing
I want you to take that precious thing that rests in your heart
And hold onto it firmly with both hands
Love that one thing with all your heart
Even if it destroys the world, it can’t be helped
I’m sure there’s at least one thing
That squirms within you, bating its breath
Be that the future, or the past
You’re the only one who knows
Running away, fighting back,
Taking a life, forgiving
Loving, believing
Laughing at pointless things
The one who decides the value of all these things
Is surely you, and no one else
Isn’t that right?
We don’t know anything about the future to come
Because there are no rules, no matter where you look, so
It’s okay to say you like the things you like
It’s okay to do the things that you like
I’m sure there’s at least one thing
That you’ve imagined with such yearning
One day it will turn the world upside down
And you’re the only one who knows
