Lyrics = 
Japanese 	Romaji 	English
舞台の裏側で 	butai no uragawa de 	Backstage, they tell
つまらない話の続きを 	tsumaranai hanashi no tsuzuki o 	The next part of a boring story.
変わった君の背に 	kawatta kimi no se ni 	You've changed, and behind you,
止まらない幕が降りる 	tomaranai maku ga oriru 	Endless curtains make their descent.
 	 	
そうやって 	sou yatte 	Just like that,
再会しちゃった 	saikai shichatta 	We've reunited.
言葉とか 	kotoba toka 	I said that words
「駄目だ」って　三回廻った 	"dame da" tte sankai mawatta 	And their ilk were useless, then spun three times
君は笑っていても 	kimi wa waratte ite mo 	Even though you laughed at me.
 	 	
照明に沿って 	shoumei ni sotte 	We're falling over
踊るように 	odoru you ni 	In order to dance
転がっていく 	korogatte iku 	Along the lighting.
僕だって笑いたい理由もないのかな 	boku datte waraitai wake mo nai no kana 	Even I might not have cause to want to laugh.
 	 	
変わんなくて　嫌になって 	kawannakute iya ni natte 	You won't change, and I'm fed up with it,
曖昧な嘘を唄って 	aimai na uso o utatte 	So I sing that ambiguous lie:
最低だって 	saitei da tte 	"How awful!"
しまえないで座ってる僕を笑っちゃって 	shimaenaide suwatteru boku o waracchatte 	Laugh at me, who's sitting without being able to finish it!
 	 	
淡い藍の歓声も 	awai ai no kansei mo 	Even pale indigo cheers
簡単に廃ってしまえばいいよ 	kantan ni shimatte shimaeba ii yo 	Can easily go out of style.
形ない鼓動の歌も 	katachi nai kodou no uta mo 	Don't even erase the song
消せないで 	kesenaide 	Of a shapeless heartbeat.
 	 	
並んだ言の葉はどこからが僕の台詞で 	naranda kotonoha wa doko kara ga boku no serifu de	From where do these lined-up words start being my dialogue?
決まった文字を吐いた 	kimatta moji o haita 	I spat out the fixed characters.
止まらない歌が響く 	tomaranai uta ga hibiku 	An endless song resounds.
 	 	
そうやって 	sou yatte 	Just like that,
満開に咲いた桜とか 	mankai ni saita sakura toka 	I knew the cherry blossoms in full bloom
冷たくて透明を知った 	tsumetakute toumei o shitta 	And their ilk to be cold and transparent
雪に触ってても 	yuki ni sawattete mo 	Even when they touched the snow.
 	 	
開演に沿って逃げるように 	kaien ni sotte nigeru you ni 	We're assembling in order to flee
固まっている 	katamatte iru 	Along the rising curtain.
君だってさ　何にも覚えてないみたいだ 	kimi datte sa nani mo oboetenai mitai da 	It seems not even you remember anything.
 	 	
嫌えないで　そうやって 	kiraenaide sou yatte 	Without being able to hate you, just like that,
簡単に嘘をついて 	kantan ni uso o tsuite 	I smoothly tell a lie:
これでずっとバイバイだ 	kore de zutto baibai da 	"With this, it's goodbye forever!"
なんて言える訳ないじゃんか 	nante ieru wake nai jan ka 	There's no way you'd be able to say that, right?
 	 	
昨日泣いて　今日吐いて 	kinou naite kyou haite 	Mine was a life of that sort of unwavering devotion,
明日に縋って生きるような 	ashita ni sugatte ikiru you na 	Like crying yesterday, puking today,
そんな一辺倒でいたい人生でした 	sonna ippentou de ita jinsei deshita 	And living while clinging to tomorrow.
 	 	
そうやって 	sou yatte 	Just like that,
深海を知った 	shinkai o shitta 	I knew the deep sea.
ツバメとか 	tsubame toka 	The swallow and its ilk
飛び立って 	tobitatte 	Took off and rose
大空に浮かんだ 	oozora ni ukanda 	Into the tapestry of the sky.
魚はなんて思うんだろう 	sakana wa nante omou ndarou 	Or so a fish would think, wouldn't it.
 	 	
もっと 	motto 	More!
もっと 	motto 	More!
開演まであと三秒 	kaien made ato sanbyou 	There's three seconds left until the curtain rises.
僕だって 	boku datte 	Even I
それを知ってたんだずっと 	sore o shitteta nda zutto 	Have always known that.
 	 	
止まんなくて 	tomannakute 	You won't stop,
嫌になって 	iya ni natte 	And I'm fed up with it,
曖昧な唄を歌って 	aimai na uta o utatte 	So I sing that ambiguous song:
最低だって 	saitei da tte 	"How awful!"
歩けないで座ってる僕は嘘つきだ 	arukenaide suwatteru boku wa usotsuki da 	I'm sitting because I can't walk; I'm such a liar.
 	 	
淡い愛の歓声も 	awai ai no kansei mo 	Even the cheers of a pale love
簡単に終わってしまうから 	kantan ni owatte shimau kara 	Can easily come to an end,
ただ笑ってよ 	tada waratte yo 	So just laugh
カーテンコールが止む前に 	kaaten kooru ga yamu mae ni 	Before the curtain call is over.
 	 	
変わんないよ　そうやって 	kawannai yo sou yatte 	You won't change! Just like that,
簡単に終わっちゃって 	kantan ni owacchatte 	It easily comes to an end,
これでずっとバイバイだなんて 	kore de zutto baibai da nante 	Because there's no way you'd be able to say
言える訳ないじゃんか 	ieru wake nai jan ka 	"With this, it's goodbye forever!"
 	 	
昨日生きて　今日生きて 	kinou ikite kyou ikite 	May you have lived yesterday, live today,
これからも縋ってしまうように 	kore kara mo sugatte shimau you ni 	And end up clinging to whatever lies ahead.
馬鹿だなぁって笑った 	baka da naa tte waratta 	You laughed, "That's pretty stupid."
君にキスをするんだ 	kimi ni kisu o suru nda 	I'll give you a kiss.
 	 	
もう 	mou 	Now,
ただ座っていた僕にさよならをするんだ 	tada suwatte ita boku ni sayonara o suru nda 	You'll say goodbye to me, who was just sitting.
そうさ 	sou sa 	Indeed,
こんな一辺倒に笑う人生でした 	konna ippentou ni warau jinsei deshita 	Yours was a life that laughed at this sort of unwavering devotion.

Alternate translation =
Behind the stage,
Boring stories continue; 
You, who has changed, – 
The curtain closes unceasingly upon your back
And so,
We're reunited –
Words and such
Were considered "no good" and spun thrice, counterclockwiseRefers to a Japanese funeral custom where the coffin is spun thrice counterclockwise to "confuse" the dead and ensure they do not "come back from the other side."
Even as you laughed
As if dancing
In accordance with the lighting,
I roll along
And it's not like there's a reason for me to want to laugh…
Without change, we grow spiteful
As we sing out ambiguous lies
It's the worst, —
Do laugh at me, sitting here unable to end it.
I'd like for even the pallid of that indigo
And its cheers to go in vain
Still, the song of this formless heartbeat —
Don't erase it.
Where do these commonplace words flowing out become my lines?
Having spewed pre-decided letters and lines,
This song echoes without end
And so,
The cherry-blossoms in full bloom
Even they, with a cold lack of fervor, understood their transparency,
Touching the snow
As if fleeing
In accordance with the curtain rising,
I freeze up.
After all, it seems you, too, don't remember a thing…
I can't hate it now, for this way
We spout lies with such ease
"And on that note, let us bid an eternal farewell" —
There's no way I could say that!
Having wept yesterday and vomited up today,
I feel like I'm living by clinging to tomorrow,
For I've wanted to live my life with such a willful, one-sided devotion all along
And so,
I've come to understand the deep-sea—
Swallows and such
Come flying out, leaping
Afloat the great blue sky;
I wonder, what do fish think of that…
More,
More—
There's only three seconds left until the stage play commences;
And even I,
I've known that all along…
Unceasingly, we grow spiteful,
Singing out ambiguous lies
It's the worst—
Having sat down, unable to walk, I am, after all, but a liar
This faint love and its cheers—
They're going to come to an end soon and simple,
So just laugh
Before the curtain call's end
We won't change — that way
It'll only be easier to put an end to this
"And on that note, let us bid an eternal farewell" —
That's something you can't just say now!
May I live by clinging to you from now on,
Just as I've lived yesterday and today.
"What an idiot," I had laughed,
As I kissed you
Now…
Say goodbye to me as I am seated here—
That's right,
For my life has consisted of smiling devotedly
