We always live our lives searching for things that won’t betray us
Seeing an endpoint within our slapdash selves

Things won’t go so smoothly,
Yet we still can’t quit the game of life
We wouldn’t want things to change so suddenly anyway
So why do we keep looking so down?
Wanna be carefree and easy-going? That’s too bad
How can the world still be so unfeeling?
There’s noise from the radio, and the choice to get off,
From this haltering taxi

Languidly running down the seaside,
We’re still believing in reincarnation
Hypnotism
Like flower fortune-telling, one petal at a time
We forcibly dye the scattered colors of our dreams, running out of breath

We always live our lives searching for things that won’t betray us
Seeing an endpoint within our slapdash selves

Alone in a silent room on a wavering night
As the end credits roll
It’s okay for you to still be a child
It was supposed to be a simple drama
But we’re always wrong about the outcome when the other side of the screen can change

It’s stranger than fiction
If you stand out, you’re different
But stay the same
And you’re wrong?

Replaceable figures
Hollow interiors
Caught up in the system
You’re gone

Yeah
You’re long gone
Selling your soul
Can’t turn it off

Looking for another way
Barcodes gotta be erased

We’re always facing backwards
The lights are casting shadows
But we’re still waiting three steps away
Still falling into the dissolving night

We keep living a city that only gets dirtier
While worrying about what’s honest and true

Gracefully waiting for our turn, we endure and keep on living
But we can no longer find the hearts we’d concealed

We always live our lives searching for things that won’t betray us
As long as we remain true, let us live our lives without regrets

Each time we look back, hanging our heads
Each time we erase our footprints
We ask, “Where shall we go now?”
We’re bouquets for such an occasion, lined up on the display
So let’s all be figures for which there’s no substitute
Just as we are
