The Day

**The Day** is the theme song in *My Hero Academia*.

## Kanji Lyrics

静けさがしみ込むようで息を止めた午前5時

非常階段で爪を噛む　明日はどっちだ？　THE DAY HAS COME

けして明けない夜も　降り続けてやまない雨も

このろくでもない世界にはあるんだよ

少しも変ではないの　まどろみに足を取られてる

あなたを責めているわけじゃないんだよ

独り空想に遊ぶ　そこで思い描いたことまで恥じるのかい？

絡み合う迷宮　迷宮　それでも行くというの？

小さき旅人が奏でる　始まりの鐘の音

行く当ても　DON’T KNOW　DON’T KNOW　本当は怖いんじゃないの？

踏み出すその一歩一歩が変えていけるさ　THE DAY HAS COME

わかりあえないヤツも　わかったようなふりしたヤツも

このろくでもない世界にはいるんだよ

ここは地獄じゃなくて　まして天国のはずもなく

ちょうどそのミシン目のような場所なんだ

明日を占うカード　風がまき上げた意味なら知ってるだろ

絡み合う迷宮　迷宮　それでも行くというの？

小さき旅人が奏でる　始まりの鐘の音

行く当ても　DON’T KNOW　DON’T KNOW　本当は怖いんじゃないの？

踏み出すその一歩一歩が変えていけるさ　THE DAY HAS COME

その目で見たモノだけ信じていたいけれど　影に怯えては

悪い予感が本当に化ける　CRY ON　CRY ON

果てしない　Real Survivor　足を引っ張りあう

生き残ったものが勝者で　「FAIR」などは幻想

忍び寄る　Secret Hunter　語るのは　天下国家

非常階段で爪を研ぐ　明日はどっちだ？　THE DAY HAS COME

## English Lyrics

Breath stopped at 5AM, like a permeating calm,

You bite your nails, standing by the emergency exit—which way is tomorrow? THE DAY HAS COME!

Nights that never end… endlessly falling rain…

Both exist in this terrible world.

So it’s not odd in the slightest: you’re always tripping up, half-asleep!

Though I’m really not trying to criticize you for it!

Playing alone in your fantasy world… will you still feel embarrassed about the things you imagine there?

This maze is tangled, so tangled—are you really still planning to go?

The sound of a bell, played by a tiny adventurer, signals a new beginning!

Even your destination: DON’T KNOW DON’T KNOW! Are you sure you aren’t scared?

But each step you take will change you: THE DAY HAS COME!

Those you can’t seem to understand… those who pretend to understand you…

Both exist in this terrible world.

This place is certainly not Hell, but I expect it’s not Heaven either.

It exists at a perforation between the two.

As the cards divine what tomorrow will bring… you’re likely aware their meaning carried off by the wind.

This maze is tangled, so tangled—are you really still planning to go?

The sound of a bell, played by a tiny adventurer, signals a new beginning!

Even your destination: DON’T KNOW DON’T KNOW! Are you sure you aren’t scared?

But each step you take will change you: THE DAY HAS COME!

You want to keep believing in the things you’ve seen with those two eyes… but as you cower in the dark,

Your horrible predictions are morphing into the truth: so CRY ON, CRY ON!

Real survivors, with undying effort, stab each other in the back.

Those who survive are the winners, and “fairness” is but an illusion!

While the Secret Hunter, creeping your way, tells of worldly affairs;

He sharpens his claws on the emergency exit—which way is tomorrow? THE DAY HAS COME!
