=== Rōmaji ===
Fumikomu ze akuseru
Kakehiki wa naisa, sōdayo
Yoru wo nukeru
Nejikomu-sa saigo ni
Sashihiki zero-sa, sōdayo
Hibi wo kezuru
Kokoro wo sotto hiraite
Gyutto hikiyosetara
Todoku yo kitto 
Tsutau yo motto-sa
Iki isoide shiboritotte
Motsureru ashi dakedo mae yori zutto sō, tōku e
Ubaitotte tsukandatte
Kimi janainara
Imi wa nai no sa
Dakara 
Haruka kanata
=== Kanji ===
踏み込むぜアクセル
駆け引きは無いさ、そうだよ
夜をぬける
ねじ込むさ最後に
差し引きゼロさ、そうだよ
日々を削る
心をそっと開いて
ぎゅっと引き寄せたら
届くよきっと
伝うよもっとさ・
生き急いで搾り取って
縺れる足だけど前よりずっとそう、遠くへ
奪い取って掴んだって
君じゃないなら
意味は無いのさ
だからもっと…遥か彼方
=== English ===
Step on the gas!
There will be no need to bargain
Go through night
Screw it, ultimately
There's nothing left, it seems
To pare down the days
Gently open your heart
If you tightly draw it close
You will surely get there
You will go farther!
Living fast, taking advantage
Feet are stuck but all along it's been that way, by far
Plundering, seizing
If you're not there
There will be no meaning
So truly far away
=== Rōmaji (Full Version) ===

Step on the accelerator!
There's no bargaining, it seems
To escape the night
Screw it, ultimately
There's nothing left, it seems
To pare down the days
Gently open your heart
If you tightly draw it close
You will surely get there
You will go farther!
Living fast, taking advantage
Feet are stuck but all along it's been that way, by far
Plundering, seizing
If you're not there
There will be no meaning
So further and further away
Step on the accelerator!
There's no bargaining, it seems
To escape the night
Screw it, ultimately
There's nothing left, it seems
To pare down the days
Gently open your heart
If you tightly draw it close
You will surely get there
You will go farther!
Living fast, taking advantage
Feet are stuck but all along it's been that way, by far
Plundering, seizing
If you're not there
There will be no meaning
So truly far away
Your world is accustomed to being a lie
Painting in white...
