Original Lyrics: Today Lyrics (Romanized)

Worthless just muttering how worthless it all is
Every day with indifference rolling on the roadside even the pigeons don’t bother
Is it now? No let’s leave it for later and I have finally come to this moment
With no way to escape there’s nothing left but to jump in


Lying to myself twisting ideals
There isn’t a single dream that I could grasp


Finite in other words I don’t believe in tomorrow
Because if today were the last it would be a life full of regrets
So I throw today away aim for big dreams win
I want to laugh and die that’s the value of today


Numerous crossroads numerous resolutions passing through them
I wonder how I ended up here try to remember
For every chosen path there were resolutions and farewells
And even now they weigh heavily on my back


I must not forget the sins I discarded
And even so the dreams I wanted to hold in my hands


Finite in other words I don’t believe in the past
Because the boundary between today and yesterday was actually decided by someone
So as long as I live in my story that continues
I want to burn out that’s the meaning of today


Your earnest today my indifferent today
The enjoyable and reluctant today the sad and unbearable today
Today in the town after the evening shower today on the battlefield struck by bombs
A day someone couldn’t live a day someone wished for so much
All with the same weight all with the same measure now it’s in front of us
Now we are living today


Finite in other words every today is a page in our limited lifetime
So if it were to be skipped there’s no such today
That’s why I redraw it the second chapter of our new selves
Mismatched but that’s just my entire life
That’s all it is

くだらない くだらないって不貞腐れてばっか
投げやりな毎日が 道端で転がってら 鳩も食いつきやしない
今だろう? いや後にしよう そして僕は今に到って
逃げ道もなくなって 後は飛び込むしかなくなった


自分に嘘をついて 理想を捻じ曲げて
手に出来た夢なんてさ 一つもないよ


有限 つまり僕は明日を信じないよ
だって今日が最後だとしたなら 後悔ばかりの人生です
だから僕は今日を投げ打って でかい理想に張って 勝って
笑って死にたいんだ それだけの価値の今日だ


幾つの分かれ道 幾つの決意 くぐり抜けて
ここに流れ着いたんだろう 思い出してみるんだよ
選んだ道の数だけ 覚悟や別れがあったんだ
そしてそれは今も僕の 背中に重く圧し掛かる


忘れちゃいけない 捨てた僕の罪と
そうしてまで 手にしたかった 夢って奴を


有限 つまり僕は過去を信じないよ
だって今日と昨日の境目なんて 実は誰かが決めたもんです
だから生きている限り続く 僕の物語にいつだって
燃え尽きたいな それだけの意味の今日だ


ひたむきに生きる君の今日も 投げやりに生きる僕の今日も
楽しくて名残惜しい今日も 悲しくてやりきれない今日も
夕立ちが去った街の今日も 被弾した戦場の今日も
誰かが生きられなかった今日も 誰かがあんなに望んだ今日も
全部同じ重さで 全部同じ尺度で 今僕らの目の前にあるよ
今僕らは今日を生きてるよ


有限 つまりどんな今日も 限りある一生の一ページ
だとしたなら読み飛ばしてもいい今日はないです
だから僕は描き直すんだ 新しい僕等の第二章
ちぐはぐでも そんなもんだろ僕の一生
それだけのものだよ
