1.I’ve only ever known anxiety
2.On days when it looks like rain
3.I can tell just from the scent of the wind4.
5.Everyone already knows
6.That I’m not cut out for this
7.Even so, I struggled, stumbled, and fell8.
9.The equation: Friendship × Effort = Victory
10.Even for us, who never figured it out—
11.Someday, they say, we’ll understand
12.But I hate myself for smiling without any proof13.
14.In that city where stars fall
15.The memories I left behind
16.Flicker deep inside my heart
17.I’ve always yearned for them18.
19.That voice
20.Burning like it’s dancing
21.In the sea of the crowd
22.I’ve kept searching for it
23.Even if it’s just our selfish wish, that’s okay24.
25.I chose what I love
26.And that should be enough to hold my head high
27.I know that—I’ve told myself that, again and again28.
29.Fingers intertwined, breaths aligned
30.I listened closely to the pounding of our hearts31.
32.I really didn’t want to say it
33.I’m sick of all the people on the sidelines
34.Because I’ve decided to live here!35.
36.Surely
37.Even our meeting
38.In this small world beneath the sky
39.Is something I’ll always keep seeking
40.Even if it was someone’s whim, that’s okay41.
42.That voice
43.Burning like it’s dancing
44.From that day long ago in the sea of the crowd
45.I’ve kept searching for it
46.Even if it’s just our selfish wish47.
48.Surely
49.Even our meeting
50.In this small world beneath the sky
51.Is something I’ll always keep seeking
52.Even if it was someone’s whim, that’s okay53.
54.We only knew anxiety
55.But may the “us” from that day
56.Become who we are now, in this town
