Mayonaka no uta ga sakenda "boku hontou wa, ano hi kara zutto..."
Akaku sukitooru yuugure no ato hoshitachi wa sora ni suwari sorezore no oto wo kanadeteita
Sunao ni nare to iwarenakutemo
Namida wa mou boku no omoi wo tsurete ashimoto de chiisana umi ni natta
Sora wa ugokanai hi ga nobori oriru dake
Jimen wa ugokanai kimi ga aruku ka arukanai ka dake da
Mayonaka no uta ga sakenda "boku hontou wa hitori ga kirai da daikirai da"
Taisetsu wo shitteshimatta ano hi kara zutto
Aa shiawase nante chiisana SUPUUN de sukueru kurai de juubun nan da
Wakeaeru hito ga iru ka inai ka dake da

真夜中の詩が叫んだ「僕本当は、あの日からずっと・・・」
赤く透き通る夕暮れの後 星たちは 空に座り それぞれの音を奏でていた
素直になれ と言われなくても
涙はもう 僕の思いを連れて足元で小さな海になった
空は動かない 日が昇り降りるだけ
地面は動かない 君が歩くか 歩かないかだけだ
真夜中の詩が叫んだ「僕ほんとうは 独りが嫌いだ 大嫌いだ」
大切を知ってしまった あの日からずっと
ああ幸せなんて 小さなスプーンで掬えるくらいで 充分なんだ
分け合える人がいるか いないかだけだ
強がる度にひびが入る 心はそう まるでガラス細工が見せる 儚い夢
純粋をぶつけあうのが怖いから 僕らはみな
すれたふりをして 不透明な世界に住みついた
重たい自由を引きずって 歩いてた
別れが来る度 空がとおざかってゆくように見えた
さよならの雨が呟いた「借りたままの傘があるんだ ここにあるんだ」
借りたままの優しさが この胸にずっと
僕にはまだ あきらめていない 再会がある 約束がある
星屑をベッドにして 眠っているあの人に
季節のない街にしゃがみ込む男の子
頭を撫でてくれる人がいなかっただけ それだけなのに
星と見つめあう 寒がりな子供達
真夜中の詩が叫んだ「僕ほんとうは独りが 嫌いだ 大嫌いだ」
独りぼっちで 生きてゆけてしまうなんてこと
幸せなんて 小さなスプーンで掬えるくらいで充分なんだ
分け合える人がいるか いないかだけ
真夜中の詩は叫ぶよ「僕ほんとうは 僕ほんとうは 淋しかった」
太陽の眩しさに かき消されても
さぁ 旗を振ろうか 肩を組もうか ただうたおうか どれでもいいよ
分け合える君がいるか いないかだけだよ
English (Full Version)[]
The song of midnight cried out
and from that day on, I've truly…
After the twilight turned a translucent red
the stars lay in the sky and played their twinkling sounds
Without even being told to be more open
already my tears brought my feelings along
and became a small sea at my feet
The sky doesn't move, it's just the sun that comes and goes
The ground doesn't move, it's just you who walk upon it
The song of midnight cried out
I truly hate being alone more than anything
and from that day on, I learned the hard way of what was important
Ah, all I need is being able to scoop up happiness with a tiny spoon
so long as I have someone to share it with
The days I pretended to be strong come back to me
It’s like showing my heart in glasswork, a fleeting dream
Throwing purity around is scary
We’ve all pretended we’ve had it at one point in this opaque world we live in
I walked, dragging a heavy freedom along
When the farewell came, it looked like the sky was leaving
The rain of goodbye muttered, and my umbrella was open
And now opened kindness will always be in my chest
I haven’t given up on the hope that we will meet again
I made a promise to the people who sleep with stardust on their beds
It was only a matter of showing some kinds
to the boys hugging their knees in the season-less town
but even so…
Those children, so sensitive to the cold, gaze upon the stars.
The song of midnight cried out
I truly hate being alone more than anything
I hate to go on living completely alone…
Ah, all I need is being able to scoop happiness with a tiny spoon
so long as I have someone to share it with
The song of midnight cried out
I was truly, truly… lonely
Even if I were to be erased by the sun's radiance.
Now come! Let's lead the way,
or stand shoulder to shoulder
or just sing out! Whichever is fine,
as long as you're here to share it with me
