Lyrics
Rōmaji
Karanokokoro o terasu mono wa nani?
Sakebi tsudzukeru hikari todoku made
Falling through the cracks kurayami e ochite ku
Anata no sono-te o zettai hanasanai
Tell me the story of your life mada michi no tochū
Anata o watashi wa zettai akiramenai
Osae rarenai shōdō nanigenai hibi wa aijō
Natsukashī kaze ni furimukeba itsu demo anata no koe ga suru yo
Underdog wa Wander around mawarimichi o shite mo nigeru yori mashi yo

Kanji
カラノココロを照らすものは何?
叫び続ける光届くまで
Falling through the cracks暗闇へ落ちてく
あなたのその手を絶対話さない
Tell me the story of your lifeまだ道の途中
あなたをわたしは絶対諦めない
抑えられない衝動何気ない日々は愛情
懐かしい風にふりむけば、いつでもあなたの声がするよ
Underdog は Wander around周り道しても逃げるよりマシよ
自分で自分を信じられなくちゃ、だれを信じるの?
光にその手かざせ
Oh yeah~
Shining through the clouds暗闇へ落ちてく
あなたのその手を絶対話さない
Tell me what is on your mind果てしない夢を
追いかけ僕らは絶対諦めない
答えのない人生にくじけそうなるけど
Don’t give it up! Keep it up! Turn it upside down!
心は繋がってるよ、たとえ遠く離れても
共に、共にいきてゆこう
English
What does it mean to shine upon an empty heart?
I keep screaming until I reach the light
Falling through the cracks, falling down to the darkness
I will definitely not let go of that hand of yours
Tell me the story of your life, we’re still halfway
I will definitely not give up on you
The urge that cannot be suppressed, the nonchalant days are love
When I turn around to the nostalgic wind, I always hear your voice
The underdog wanders around, it’s better to take the long way than to run
I can’t even believe in myself, so who do I believe?
That hand is decorated by the light
Shining through the clouds, falling down to the darkness
I will definitely not let go of that hand of yours
Tell me what is on your mind, we,
who are chasing the endless dream, will definitely not give up
This life with no answers may seem discouraging but
Don’t give it up! Keep it up! Turn it upside down!
Our hearts are connected, even if we are far apart
Let’s both live together
