1.Just blame it all on the weather
2.This uneasiness, this exhaustion
3.The sun is hiding, pretending not to notice4.
5.The crowded train rattles and shakes
6.As a local express train passes by
7.I search for expressions in the clouds with no outline8.
9.“Explain how the author was feeling:”
10.What could the right answer be?
11.My step falls right through these scenarios with a pre-established harmony12.
13.The so called “Springtime of Youth”
14.Simply doesn’t fit me
15.I know it only comes once in a lifetime
16.That’s why it fills me with emptiness
17.So I’ll never, ever forget
18.Again and again, until the day I die
19.No matter what happens, I’ll just laugh it off20.
21.A cramped classroom, existing in a vacuum
22.The boys are enjoying their youth
23.My world is separated by a perforated line24.
25.This hateful feeling of inferiority
26.Is my sense of superiorty over everyone else
27.A sublime emotion that’s in constant conflict
28.What on Earth am I doing?29.
30.“I totally get it! I feel the same way.”
31.Do you actually think that?
32.You don’t even know how much that irks me33.
34.Someone else’s beginning to today
35.Is nothing but an ending to me
36.As I repeat my footsteps, the future is calling to me
37.“Keep moving forward,” it echoes
38.But things like fate and miracles
39.Are surely wasted on me
40.I can only take the steps as they come41.
42.I’m not as spoiled as an adult
43.But I’m no child genius either
44.I’m right in the middle of my life45.
46.I feel like the wind will leave me behind
47.I’m trying to hold on for dear life
48.The same old sound of the bell, the dust accumulating on the window sill
49.Even the smell of the classroom
50.I’ll never, ever forget
51.Again and again, until the day I die
52.No matter what happens, I’ll just laugh it off
