You’ve got me trapped in corners
Think I have nowhere to go
But I’ll show you, first thing I do
You’ve got me oh so wrong

You’ve got me trapped in corners
Think I have nowhere to go
But I’ll show you, first thing I do
You got me fucking wrong!

The never ending story of
(How you bring me up just to bring me pain)
Where we going? Seems around
I’ve had it up, things will never ever change

Say you changed enough for reasons
We can’t seem to forget
If you want a story
Here it is

You’d love me
To stay here
I hate you
Can you admit you’re wrong?
No, never
It’s like you said

The never ending story of
(How you bring me up just to bring me pain)
But this is just one of your games
(I’ve had it up, you will never ever change)
(Uh baby)
Try to picture moving on
I wanna picture worth my time
A thousand words for every tear of mine

Chasing myself in circles
When will this finally end?

絵に描いたような恐怖に
e ni egaita youna kyoufu ni
It’s like a painting of my fears

追われ　過ごした
oware sugoshita
In a continual loop with no exit

出口の無いループ繰り返し
deguchi no nai ruupu kurikaeshi
I filled up my time

回る
mawaru
Going around and around

It’s like you said
(It’s always like you said)

The never ending story of
(How you bring me up just to bring me pain)
But this is just one of your games
(I’ve had it up, you will never ever change)
(Uh baby)
Try to picture moving on
I wanna picture worth my time
A thousand words for every tear of mine

I’m going through stages
Like roaming through pages

誰もが自分を見失う
dare mo ga jibun wo miushinau
Not a person to miss me

そんな時は日々の喧噪から離れて
sonna toki wa hibi no kensou kara hanarete
That’s when I let go of the daily hustle and bustle

見渡せば　そこには　ほら今の君が写るから
miwataseba soko ni wa hora ima no kimi ga utsuru kara
After all, if you take a look around you, your present self will be there, projected in the distance

(It’s that time
Let me show you something new
Ready?
Here we go)

Over and over again
It’s like we’re looking and searching for sin
Or something that will take this
Pain away from my brain
So you’re talking and yapping and lips are moving but
I am free
You? None

You’d love me
To stay here
I hate you
Can you admit you’re wrong?
No, never
It’s like you said

The never ending story of
(How you bring me up just to bring me pain)
But this is just one of your games
(I’ve had it up, you will never ever change)
(Uh baby)
Try to picture moving on
I wanna picture worth my time
A thousand words for every tear of mine

The never ending story of
Where we’re going seems so wrong
The never ending story of
But this is just one of your games
(Oo baby)

Another step up
It’s takin’ takin’ takin’ takin’ long
Always digging
It’s gettin’ gettin’ gettin’ gettin’ get it on
Wherever you stand just start to walk
Everywhere you go goes round and round
It’s coming back to what I know

The deep, deep, deeper we go
Feeling alone but it’s oh so simple
Let it go
Dim dim dim, the light’s low
But not blind, I can see the symbol
Let it show
Mighty story, don’t hide it from me

いつだって人は迷うんだって
itsu datte hito wa mayou’n datte
People will say they’ve gotten lost all the time

気付いちゃったって知らんぷりしていよう
kizuichattatte shiranpurishiteiyou
Just pretend not to notice

そして　good good days
soshite good good days
So to have good good days

僕らは生まれてから　so　多くを学び
bokura umarete kara so ooku wo manabi
We’ve studied so much since being born

死に近づくにつれて多くを忘れ
shi ni chikazuku ni tsurete ooku wo wasure
Inching towards death, we forget just as much

気付いた時にゃもう灰になってる
kizuita toki nya mou hane ni natteru
Before we know it, we’ve turned to ash

生きた証を残しておくにはモノじゃ無くて
ikita akashi wo nokoshiteoku ni wa mono ja nakute
And have left behind no proof of the lives we lived

「誰かの記憶に残るような人生を薦めします」
“dareka no kioku ni nokoru youna jinsei wo susumeshimasu”
“I recommend you live a life somebody out there will remember.”

The deep deep deeper we go
Feeling alone but it’s oh so simple
Let it go
Dim dim dim the light’s low
But not blind, I can see the symbol
Let it show
Mighty story, don’t hide it from me

いつだって人は迷うんだって
itsu datte hito wa mayou’n datte
People will say they’ve gotten lost all the time

気付いちゃったって知らんぷりしていよう
kizuichattatte shiranpurishiteiyou
Just pretend not to notice

そして　good good days
soshite good good days
So to have good good days

物事には　so　どんな時だって
monogoto ni wa so donna toki datte
In those times when you have everything

オマケのノビシロがついていて！
omake no nobishiro ga tsuiteite!
There’s still room for additional possibilities!

何かを築きそして変え越えて！
nanika wo mazuki soshite kaekoete!
Build something up just to change while surpassing it!

奇跡と言うなの必然を繰り返して！上へ
kiseki to iu na no hitsuzen wo kurikaeshite! ue he
Repeat that inevitable miracle again and again! Towards the sky

We never we never we will not stop right here

(The choice is yours!
So choose wisely)

Do what you do, gotta get through

へたれてる時間なんて微塵も無いぞ
hetareteru jikan nante mijin mo naizo
You have such little time to give your all

後悔しないように生きる
koukai shinai youni ikiru
Living like you won’t regret it

そんな風に生きたって悔いは残るさ
sonna fuuni ikitatte kui wa nokoru sa
Might leave behind some remorse

長いものに巻かれて終わる？
nagai mono ni makarete owaru?
Will the end come with you being wrapped up by some lengthy thing?

いやそれどころか巻いて終わるのさ
iya soredokoroka maite owaru no sa
Nope, instead the end is you wrapping it

予測すらできやしない猛スピードで
yosoku sura dekiyashinai mou supiido de
At an unpredictable and incredible speed

ほら　good goodbye
hora good goodbye
Look at that, good goodbye

Someday
Someway

このあまりにも短すぎる人生の中で何かを変える事はそんな簡単なことじゃないけど
kono amari ni mo mijika sugiru jinsei no naka de nanika wo kaeru koto wa sonna kantan na koto janai kedo
It may not be so simple to change something in these not-so-long lives of ours

でもこの時代に生まれることができたからこそ何かをぶっ壊す必要があって新しい何かを築いて
demo kono jidai ni umareru koto ga dekita kara koso nanika wo bukkawasu hitsuyou ga atte atarashii nanika wo kizuite
But since we were born into this time, it’s important that we destroy something and build anew

その何かを今度は誰かがまたぶっ壊して前に進んで行く必要がある気がする
sono nanika wo kondo wa dareka ga mata bukkawashite mae ni susunde iku hitsuyou ga aru ki ga suru
Before someone goes and destroys that something, though, making progress forward is crucial

俺ははっきりいって勉強も出来ないし社会的知識もあるわけじゃない
ore wa hakkiri itte benkyou mo dekinai shi shakaiteki chishiki mo aru wake janai
I’m not so good at studying, and it’s not like I have any idea of how to behave myself properly

ただ一つ言えるのは誰より自分を信じて
tada hitotsu ieru no wa dare yori jibun wo shinjite
The only claim I can make is that I believe in myself more than anyone else

ここまでやってきた結果支えてくれるメンバーや大事な友達
kokomade yattekita kekka sasaetekureru menbaa ya daiji na tomodachi
The result of what I’ve received so far, my band mates and irreplaceable friends

求められる喜びその他諸々お金じゃ買えないものをこれまでに手に入れてきた
motomerareru yorokobi sono hoka moromoro okane ja kaenai mono wo koremade ni te ni iretekita
As well as all the happiness I could wish for that can’t be bought by money has fell within my grasp

でもまだ満足はしてないし叶えなきゃいけない夢もたくさんある
demo mada manzoku wa shite nai shi kaenakyaikenai yume mo takusan aru
But I haven’t reached full satisfaction yet; there are still so many dreams I need to fulfill

おまけにこの世の中には腐るほどの不満もあって
omake ni kono yo no naka ni wa kusaru hodo no fuman mo atte
Besides that, unhappiness is still stinking up this world we live in

夢だけみてりゃ生きていけるようなそんな時代でもなくなってきた
yume dake miterya ikiteikeru youna sonna jidai demo nakunattekita
The sort of generation in which you can live only by looking toward your own dream is no more

だからこそもっと強くたくましく夢を現実にするために
dakara koso motto tsuyoku takumashiku yume wo genjitsu ni suru tameni
So, for the sake of trying with even more persistence and strength to make a reality of our dreams

人生かけて俺らは何かひとつやり遂げる必要がある
jinsei kakete orera wa nanika hitotsu yari togeru hitsuyou ga aru
Life multiplied by us must equal something that has to be achieved at all costs

You can’t take your time, there’s just 3 minutes
So here’s another Wo Wo
Don’t wanna pass the baton
I’m gonna take it
And then I’m gonna
Please you please me
Please you please me

You can’t take your time, can’t waste a minute
So here’s another Wo Wo
I’m gonna take what I can and then give it
Then I’m gonna

That’s the 69（ろっく）

バンドって言うのは時に激しく中指を立てたり
bando tte iu no wa toki ni hageshii nakayubi wo tatetari
Sometimes, being a band means violently raising your middle finger

そして時にもう一本足して世界の平和を願ったり
soshite toki ni mou ippon tashite sekai no heiwa wo negattari
While at better times it’s wishing for a tiny bit more of world peace

自分の言葉をメロディーに乗せて真っ直ぐでバカで青臭い生き物だから
jibun no kotoba wo merodii ni nosete massugu de baka de aokusai ikimono dakara
Because we who make words into melody are just as soon stupid immature animals

干からびて臭いもしなくなれば死んだも同然だし存在してる意味すらなくなってしまう
hikarabite nioi moshi nakunareba shinda mo touzen da shi sonzaishiteru imi sura nakunatte shimau
It’s the same as dying if our stale scent fades away and the significance of our existence disappears

そして自分自身も迷うのに誰かを救ったりもできる繊細でめんどくさいみんなのヒーローってわけだからこそ今のこの世の中
soshite jibun jishin mo mayou no ni dareka wo sukuttari mo dekiru sensai de mendokusai minna no hiiroo tte wake dakarakoso ima no kono yo no naka
For that reason, to be a hero for anyone who has lost their way, to be able to save those fragile people who are considered annoying

そしてこれから先も絶対必要なんだと俺は確信してる
soshite korekara saki mo zettai hitsuyou nanda to ore wa tashika shinjiteru
I believe without a shadow of a doubt for now and forever that this is necessary

そんな職業に就けたこと俺は心から誇りに思ってるし
sonna shokugyou ni tsuketa koto ore wa kokoro kara hokori ni omotteru shi
I’m unabashedly proud of having entered this sort of occupation

これからもこの素晴らしさを伝えていきたいと思ってる
korekara mo kono subarashisa wo tsutaete ikitai to omotteru
So not only do I want to convey this amazingness from now on

バンドは仮面ライダーやウルトラマンみたいにたくさんの数と歴史があって
bando wa kamenraidaa ya urutoraman mitai ni takusan no kazu to rekishi ga atte
But also for this band to be like Kamen Rider and Ultraman with their great numbers and history

そしていつの時代も必ず誰かの心に残ってる
soshite itsu no jidai mo kanarazu dareka no kokoro ni nokotteru
Who, no matter the generation, undoubtedly remain in people’s hearts

You can’t take your time, there’s just 3 minutes
So here’s another Wo Wo
Don’t wanna pass the baton
I’m gonna take it
And then I’m gonna
Please you please me
Please you please me

You can’t take your time, can’t waste a minute
So here’s another Wo Wo
I’m gonna take what I can and then give it
Then I’m gonna

That’s the 69（ろっく）

俺らは誰のものでもない

We can’t be anyone else

いつだって自分たちを嘘つかんない
itsudatte jibun-tachi wo uso tsukannai
And we won’t lie to ourselves

これからもこの先も
korekara mo kono saki mo
Not now, not ever

でも愛するべきはメンバーと
demo ai suru beki wa menbaa to
But to my band mates

いつも俺らを応援してくれて
