Japanese 	Romaji 	English
この街に来れば何かが 	kono machi ni kureba nanika ga 	An unlaughable amount of time has passed
変わる気がするって飛び出して 	kawaru ki ga suru tte tobidashite 	since I jumped out of my house because I felt
笑えないくらいときが経ったな 	waraenai kurai toki ga tatta na 	something would change in this town.
何も掴めないまま 	nani mo tsukamenai mama 	However, I haven’t caught anything yet.
 	 	
なまじ半端に売れちゃって 	namaji hanpa ni urechatte 	Unfortunately, I got somewhat popular
後にも先にも道が無いや 	ato ni mo saki ni mo michi ga nai ya 	so I have no way forward or back.
歳をとるるたび減る可能性は 	toshi o toruru tabi heru kanousei wa 	The possibility that my popularity decreases
ゼロじゃないからタチが悪い 	zero janai kara tachi ga warui 	as I get older isn’t zero, which is making the situation even worse.
 	 	
ゆめは叶えるよりも見てるだけのほうが 	yume wa kanaeru yori mo miteru dake no hou ga 	The fact is, you’re happier when you just have a dream
実は幸せなんだぜ 	jitsu wa shiawase nanda ze 	than when you’re actually trying to make it true.
がむしゃらにはなれない 	gamushara ni wa narenai 	You shouldn’t be desperate—because if you are,
駄目だったときの理由も無くしてしまうから 	dame datta toki no riyuu mo naku shite shimau kara	you’ll lose an excuse to make when it didn’t come true.
本気を出せば僕も飛べるって 	honki o daseba boku mo toberu tte 	Holding a miserable hope like

食いつなぐのが誇らしいや 	kuitsunagu no ga hokorashii ya 	with a part-time job that pays one thousand yenA thousand yen is about 7-8 USD. an hour,
社会に溶けたあいつらを 	shakai ni toketa aitsura o 	believing that those guys
負け犬って思いながら 	makeinu tte omoinagara 	fitting into society are total losers.
 	 	
認められないのは 	mitomerarenai no wa 	Thinking it’s just because everyone has a poor eye
