### Short Version

* Rōmaji
* Japanese
* English

tsumetai (ANOTHER STAR)　namida mo (ANOTHER SKY)

furueru (ANOTHER WORLD)　kono kodou sae mo

OPEN YOUR EYES (ANOTHER STAR)　mitsumeau (ANOTHER SKY)

hitomi wa (ANOTHER WORLD)　samenai yume ni natte

kanjiru mama ni　sora no iro wa samazama de

miru hito goto ni　chigau ao ni somatta

risou no kazu to　iiwake no kazu wo awase

mamotte bakari　kizutsuku nante NONSENSE

LIFE IS NOT FAIR. BUT I WILL FOLLOW IT.

kegareru hodo ni kakkou tsukete

WHAT CAN YOU DO TO PROMOTE WORLD PEACE?

SLOW MOTION ni　toki wo kizanda

tsumetai (ANOTHER STAR)　namida mo (ANOTHER SKY)

furueru (ANOTHER WORLD)　kono kodou sae mo

OPEN YOUR EYES (ANOTHER STAR)　mitsumeau (ANOTHER SKY)

hitomi wa (ANOTHER WORLD)　samenai yume ni natte

bijaku naru gokan ga bokura no sonzai

chikakute toosugiru　kono basho

owari ga mata hajimaru yo

ONE, TWO, THREE, FOUR, FIVE, SIX, SEVEN, EIGHT, NINE

冷たい(another star)　涙も(another sky)

震える(another world)　この鼓動さえも

Open your eyes(another star)　見つめ合う(another sky)

瞳は(another world)　醒めない夢になって

感じるままに　空の色は様々で

見る人ごとに　違う青に染まった

理想の数と　言い訳の数を合わせ

守ってばかり　傷つくなんてナンセンス

Life is not fair. But I will follow it.

穢れるほどに格好つけて

What can you do to promote world peace？

スローモーションに 時を刻んだ

冷たい(another star)　涙も(another sky)

震える(another world)　この鼓動さえも

Open your eyes(another star)　見つ合う(another sky)

瞳は(another world)　醒めない夢になって

微弱なる五感が僕らの存在

近くて遠すぎる　この場所

終わりがまた始まるよ

ONE、TWO、THREE、FOUR、FIVE、SIX、SEVEN、EIGHT、NINE

Even those cold (another star) tears (another sky)...

Even that trembling (another world) heartbeat...

Open your eyes (another star) and stare back at them (another sky):

Your eyes (another world) will become an unending dream.

The sky consists of many colors based on its mood,

Appearing a different shade of blue to each person who looks upon it.

Trying to balance the number of those ideals, with the number of excuses:

Merely one-sided protection, where getting hurt is nonsense!

Life is not fair. But I will follow it.

I’ll keep acting unaffected until it corrupts me.

What can you do to promote world peace?

In slow motion, you kept track of time.

Even those cold (another star) tears (another sky)...

Even that trembling (another world) heartbeat...

Open your eyes (another star) and stare back at them (another sky):

Your eyes (another world) will become an unending dream.

Our faint five senses are the entirety of our existence.

In this close, yet all too far-off place,

The end will begin yet again:

ONE, TWO, THREE, FOUR, FIVE, SIX, SEVEN, EIGHT, NINE

ONE、TWO、THREE、FOUR、FIVE、SIX、SEVEN、EIGHT、NINE

夢の続きは　遠すぎる未来だから

気持ち乱れて　自分を誤魔化した

言い訳の数　被害者意識を盾に

諦めるほど　迷宮入りのマイセルフ

Life is not fair. But I will follow it.

大切なシグナル見落とした

What can you do to promote world peace?

神はまた僕に嘘をついた

眩しい(another star)　太陽(another sky)

冷たい(another world)　風のささやきも

Open your eyes(another star)　伝えたい(another sky)

想いは(another world)　指の隙間に堕ちて

目に見えないフェイクで僕らを裏切る

二人が手を伸ばし　抱きしめ

命の意味に触れたら

ONE、TWO、THREE、FOUR、FIVE、SIX、SEVEN、EIGHT、NINE

全ての(another star)　始まり(another sky)

世界は(another world)　闇へ朽ちて行く

Open your eyes(another star)　命さえ(another sky)

無価値と(another world)　仮面が笑う

冷たい(another star)　涙も(another sky)

震える(another world)　この鼓動さえも

Open your eyes(another star)　見つ合う(another sky)

瞳は(another world)　醒めない夢になって

微弱なる五感が僕らの存在

終わりがまた始まるよ

ONE、TWO、THREE、FOUR、FIVE、SIX、SEVEN、EIGHT、NINE

Even those cold (another star) tears (another sky)...

Even that trembling (another world) heartbeat...

Open your eyes (another star) and stare back at them (another sky):

Your eyes (another world) will become an unending dream.

The sky consists of many colors based on its mood,

Appearing a different shade of blue to each person who looks upon it.

Trying to balance the number of those ideals, with the number of excuses:

Merely one-sided protection, where getting hurt is nonsense!

Life is not fair. But I will follow it.

I’ll keep acting unaffected until it corrupts me.

What can you do to promote world peace?

In slow motion, you kept track of time.

Even those cold (another star) tears (another sky)...

Even that trembling (another world) heartbeat...

Open your eyes (another star) and stare back at them (another sky):

Your eyes (another world) will become an unending dream.

Our faint five senses are the entirety of our existence.

In this close, yet all too far-off place,

The end will begin yet again:

ONE, TWO, THREE, FOUR, FIVE, SIX, SEVEN, EIGHT, NINE

The continuation of this dream… lies in a future too far away.

Casting my feelings in disarray, I deceived myself.

Each time I make an excuse, I use my victim complex as a shield;

The more I keep giving up, my sense of self remains an unsolved mystery.

Life is not fair. But I will follow it.

I missed seeing an important signal...

What can you do to promote world peace?

God lied to me again...

Even the bright (another star) sun (another sky),

And cold (another world) whisper of the wind...

Open your eyes (another star) and the emotions (another sky)

That you want to tell someone (another world) will fall through the gaps in your fingers.

By an invisible fake, we are betrayed.

We reach out our hands and embrace one another—

Once we manage to touch the meaning of life:

ONE, TWO, THREE, FOUR, FIVE, SIX, SEVEN, EIGHT, NINE

The beginning (another star) of everything... (another sky)

This world (another world) will rot into the darkness...

Open your eyes (another star) and that mask will smile (another sky):

Declaring that even life (another world) is worthless.

Even those cold (another star) tears (another sky)...

Even that trembling (another world) heartbeat...

Open your eyes (another star) and stare back at them (another sky):

Your eyes (another world) will become an unending dream.

Our faint five senses are the entirety of our existence.

In this close, yet all too far-off place,

The end will begin yet again:

ONE, TWO, THREE, FOUR, FIVE, SIX, SEVEN, EIGHT, NINE

## Trivia

* The official kanji lyrics for the song contain the word "eight" in the countdown, however, Asaka says she mistakenly skipped over it while focusing on getting her English pronunciation correct.
