As though turning off the TV I was watching listlessly

I sometimes want to stop living

人生は苦痛ですか？　成功が全てですか？ / jinsei wa kutsuu desuka seikou ga subete desu ka
Is life just pain? Is being successful everything?

僕はあなたに　あなたに　ただ　会いたいだけ / boku wa anata ni anata ni tada aitai dake
All I want to do it is to just see you

みすぼらしくていいから　欲まみれでもいいから / misuborashikute ii kara yoku mamire demo ii kara
It is ok even if it is shabby…it is ok even of it is covered in desire

響き消える笑い声　一人歩く曇り道 / hibiki kieru waraigoe hitori aruku kumori michi
The sound of laughter that echoes and disappears and the cloudy path that I walk on alone

筋書き通りにいかぬ毎日は誰のせい？ / sujigaki doori ni ikanu mainichi wa dare no sei
Whose fault is it that these days do not happen according to the story

熱い戦いをただベンチで眺めてばかり / atsui tatakai wo tada BENCHI de nagamete bakari
Just sitting on the bench and merely watching the fierce battle that was going on

消えそうな炎　両手で包むように / kiesou na honoo ryoute de tsutsumu you ni
Like wrapping my hands around a fire that is about to be extinguished

生きることを諦めきれずにいる / ikiru koto wo akirame kirezu ni iru
I am not giving up on living

人生は悲劇ですか？　成功は孤独ですか？ / jinsei wa higeki desu ka seikou wa kodoku desu ka
Is life just a tragedy? Is being successful also being alone?

The keys that jingles at the bottom of my bag and the cry of the crow calling its friends
