=== Rōmaji ===
I realise the screaming pain
Hearing loud in my brain
But I'm going straight ahead with the scar
Can You Hear Me (x2)
Can You Hear Me (So am I)
Wasurete shimaeba ii yo kanji nakunacchaeba ii
Surimuita kokoro ni futa o shitanda
Kizutsuitatte heikidayo mou itami wa nai kara ne
Sono ashi o hikizuri nagara mo
Miushinatta jibun jishin ga
Oto o tatete kuzureteitta
Kizukeba kaze no oto dake ka
Tsutaeni kitayo kizuato tadotte
Sekai ni oshitsubusarete shimau mae ni
Oboeterukana namida no sora o
Ano itami ga kimi no koto o mamottekureta
Sono itami ga itsumo kimi o mamotterunda
Can You Hear Me? So am I
=== Rōmaji (Full Version) ===

Hearing loud in my brain
But I'm going straight ahead, with the scar
Can You Hear Me (x2)

=== Kanji ===
I realise the screaming pain
Hearing loud in my brain
But I'm going straight ahead with the scar
忘れてしまえばいいよ　
感じなくなっちゃえばいい
擦(す)りむいた心に蓋(ふた)をしたんだ
傷ついたって平気だよ　
もう痛みは無いからね
その足を引きずりながらも
見失った自分自身が
音を立てて崩れていった
気付けば風の音だけが…
伝えに来たよ　傷跡を辿って　
世界に押しつぶされてしまう前に
覚えてるかな 涙の空を　
あの痛みが君の事を守ってくれた
その痛みがいつも君を守ってるんだ

覚えてるかな 涙の空を　
あの痛みが君の事を守ってくれた
その痛みがいつも君を守ってるんだ
「傷付かない強さよりも　
傷つけない優しさを」
その声はどこか悲しそうで
掛け違えた　ボタンみたいに
こころ身体　離れていった
もう一度 心を掴んで
伝えに来たよ　傷跡を辿って　
世界に押しつぶされてしまう前に
覚えてるかな 涙の空を　
あの痛みが君の事を守ってくれた
その痛みがいつも君を守ってるんだ
いつか聞いた あの泣き声は
間違いなくそう 自分のだった
全てはこの時のために…
きっと始めから わかってたんだ　
もう二度と自分だけは離さないで
気付いてくれた　君への合図　
あの痛みが君の事を守ってくれた
伝えに来たよ　傷跡を辿って　
それなら もう恐れるものはないんだと
忘れないでね 笑顔の訳を　
あの痛みが君の事を守ってくれた
あの痛みが君の事を守ってくれた
その痛みがいつも君を守ってるんだ

I realise the screaming pain
Hearing loud in my brain
But I'm going straight ahead
With this scar
Can you hear me
Can you hear me
Can you hear me, so am I
I don't mind if you don't remember
All the feelings that we used to share
For I've sealed away my heart into the darkness
It's just fine if you end up hurting me
'cause I don't feel pain anymore
I just drag my feet behind me
Towards what's held in store
I had been led astray
With no hope to be found
My heart withered away
And I fell to the ground
Then I heard a voice within the blowing of the wind
Please let me show you the pain
My scars have made me obtain
Before the weight of the world
Comes crashing down on my shoulders
Do you remember the time
Our tears fell down from the sky
Someday soon when I'm gone
Never think that I'll neglect you
For the pain that I've
Sealed away in your heart will protect you
Can you hear me, so am I
=== English (Full Version— literal) ===
I realize the screaming pain
Hearing loud in my brain
But I'm going straight ahead with the scar
Can you hear me/can you hear me/can you hear me
So am I
It's okay if you've forgotten
It's okay if you don't feel it anymore
I know it's because you've covered up your scraped up heart
It's okay if you hurt me
because there's no pain anymore
Even as you're dragging your feet behind you
The self you lost
Made a sound, then crumbled to nothing
If you realize it, only the sound of the wind...
has come to answer you, so follow the scar
Before you are crushed under the weight of the world
Do you remember? That sky of tears
That pain has protected you for me
That pain is always protecting you
"More than the strength to not hurt anyone,
towards a kindness that doesn't hurt anyone"
In that voice, somewhere, sadly
Like crossed buttons
You've separated your body from your heart
One more time, grab onto your heart...
I've come to answer you, so follow the scar
before you are crushed under the weight of the world
Do you remember it? That sky filled with tears
That pain protected you for me
This pain is always protecting you
That crying voice heard somewhere, sometime
Unmistakably was mine
All of it was for this moment...
I'm sure you knew from the very beginning
Just don't ever let go of yourself again
As a sign to you who has realized that, 
That pain has protected you for me
I've come to answer you, so follow the scar
If you do so, there's no longer anything to fear
Don't forget it, okay? It was all for that smiling face
That pain has protected you for me
That pain has protected you for me
This pain will always protect you for me
=== English (Full Version-- Alternate) ===
I realise the screaming pain
Hearing loud in my brain
But I'm going straight ahead, with this scar
Can You Hear Me (x2)
Can You Hear Me (So am I)
i don't mind if you don't remember all the feelings that we used to share
cause i sealed my heart into the darkness
it's just fine if you end up hurting me, cause i don't feel pain anymore
I just drag my feet behind me, Towards what's held in store
I had been led astray
With no hope to be found
My heart withered away
And I fell to the ground
Then I heard a voice within the blowing of the wind
Please let me show you the pain
My scars have made me obtain
Before the weight of the world
Comes crashing down on my shoulders
Do you remember the time
Our tears fell down from the sky
Someday soon when I'm gone
Never think that I'll neglect you
For the pain that I've
Sealed away in your heart will protect you
Can you hear me, so am I
Although I've blocked all of my feelings
Even the ones caused by being kind
Every now and then I hear a voice
Inside me seem to cry
Like when you undo
A button from it's hole
My bitter torment drew
My body from my soul
So I'm crying out in hopes to fill my empty heart
Please let me show you the pain
My scars have made me obtain
Before the weight of the world
Comes crashing down on my shoulders
Do you remember the time
Our tears fell down from the sky
Someday soon when I'm gone
Never think that I'll neglect you
For the pain that I've
Sealed away in your heart will protect you
Can you hear it?
Can you feel it?
Can you hear me?
Can you hear me?
Can you hear me?
Can you hear me?
Can you hear me?
So am I
I have finally found
All of the heartbroken moans
That I keep hearing sound
Are from my voice alone
And I've done this all for this one moment here with you
I'm sure that right from the start
You always knew in your heart
That I'd always be the one
That you could count on to care for you
I have been leading you to
The sign that I left for you
Someday soon when I'm gone
Never think that I'll neglect you
If you will follow the pain
That through me you have obtained
There is nothing in this world
That will be able to hurt you
But don't forget all the things
That bring out your smile away
Someday soon when I'm gone
Never think that I'll neglect you
Someday soon when I'm gone
Never think that I'll neglect you
For the pain that I've
Sealed away in your heart will protect you
Can you hear me
Can you hear me
Can you hear me
So am I
