Daredemo ii ya daredemo ii kara dareka inai ka

Koe dewa nai ga niramu shisen ga futatsu to aru to omoeta

Kore de osaraba jubaku kara saraba yoru ga hodoketa

Koukishin datta yuushitessen no mukougawa e to

Zenzen kyoumi naitte chou ga maikomeba

Souzou toori datta to ieba uso ni naru ga

Taihaiteki datta koohii no awa wo koboshita

Sonna sonna mainichi datta boku no mae ni

Arawareta kimi wa

Doushitatte doushitatte susumenai mama da

Hippy na kono machi no saga ni

Douyatte douyatte riyuu wo

"daiji nanda zenbu" kikoe dake wa ii keredo

Mukougawa kara totsujo arawarete kizukeba tsureteikareteshimaisou na bokura

Tebanasu koto ni obiete kimi wa kyou mo stay

Kimi wa kyou mo stay

Anatagata ni wa anatagata ni wa osewa ni natta

Oboe wa nai ga nani ka to iitai sonna kao shiteimasu ga

Me ni utsuru mono ga koko ni aru mono subete ga nisemono deshita

Jou ni kaketatte bou ni futtatte ima ni hajimaru

Seizei shita wo kande soko de damatteireba

Soutei toori datta to ieba uso ni naru ga

Kanshouteki datta kimirashiku wa nai ga

Sonna sonna hyoujou ga isshun boku no me ni wa

Zutto dokoka de anata ni akogare sono tabi jibun wo ushinai kaketeimashita

Honmono wo koero bibireba kimi wa kyou mo stay

Doushitatte doushitatte susumenai mama da

Hippy na kono machi no saga ni

Mukougawa kara totsujo arawarete kizukeba tsureteikareteshimaisou na bokura

Kimi wa kyou mo stay

誰でもいいや 誰でもいいから 誰かいないか

声ではないが 睨む視線が ２つと在ると思えた

これでおさらば 呪縛からさらば 夜が解けた

好奇心だった 有刺鉄線の 向こう側へと

全然興味ないって 蝶が舞い込めば

想像通りだった といえば嘘になるが

退廃的だった コーヒーの泡を溢した

そんなそんな 毎日だった 僕の前に

現れた君は

どうしたってどうしたって 進めないままだ

ヒッピーなこの街の性に

どうやってどうやって 理由を

"大事なんだ全部" 聞こえだけはいいけれど

向こう側から突如現れて 気づけば

連れていかれてしまいそうな僕ら

手放す事に怯えて君は今日も Stay

君は今日も stay

貴方方には 貴方方には お世話になった

覚えはないが 何かと言いたいそんな顔していますが

目に映るものが ここに在るもの全てが偽物でした

情にかけたって 棒に振ったって 今に始まる

精々舌を噛んで そこで黙っていれば

想定通りだった といえば嘘になるが

感傷的だった 君らしくはないが

そんなそんな 表情が一瞬僕の目には

美しく映ってました

ずっとどこかで貴方に憧れ

その度自分を失いかけていました

本物を超えろ

ビビれば君は今日も Stay

どうしたってどうしたって 進めないままだ

ヒッピーなこの街の性に

どうやってどうやって 理由を

"大事なんだ全部" 聞こえだけはいいけれど

向こう側から突如現れて 気づけば

連れていかれてしまいそうな僕ら

手放す事に怯えて君は今日も Stay

ずっとどこかで貴方に憧れ

その度自分を失いかけていました

本物を超えろ

ビビれば君は今日も stay

君は今日も stay

君は今日も stay

```
anyone’s fine to me

```

anyone’s fine

but are they out there?

flowing paranoia

at the same foreground

left the glaring eyes stuck on me

sayin my farewells

the last of the night

finally fallin to a rest

without delay

became a curiosity

behind the barbed wire

doesn’t sound that interestin

to see a butterfly flutter in

just as I predicted it

sayin that would just be a lie

no, it was a decadent

even the brew still taunted me

day by day~every day

every hour just echoed

the same broken lines

but then you showed

and all I could think was

it doesn’t matter

ya don’t matter

tied into the ground

keepin and followin

a town of broken records

how can I

how can I

find a reason

“Everythin all matters”

I guess that’s all you

really want to hear

do doo dodo doo

uwoah uwoah

for a moment to the other side

the figures started shapin

feelin one step closer

to be taken away from

do doo dodo doo

uwoah uwoah

expressin such a dismay won’t open up

I’ll ask again, so stay

I’ll ask again, so stay

everyone has always

everyone has always

taken good care of me

though I don’t remember

I do want to show it

that’s how my mind feels about now

reflected into your eyes

mirrored the things that

never really existed

am I so heartless for

trying to throw it away

despite it beginnin soon

will I stay livin here

keepin a permanent silence

just as I predicted it

sayin that would just be a lie

no, it was a tenderness

showing a side I didn’t know

seein that

seein that

seein your expression

from my own two eyes

lit up the night

why couldn’t I look away

do doo dodo doo

uwoah uwoah

such a passion

I would long for you to be here

and in cases lose myself

and break away and feel

the cycle all again

do doo dodo doo

uwoah uwoah

see through to what can be seen

lose grip

I’ll ask again, for you to stay

It doesn’t matter

ya don’t matter

tied into the ground

keepin and followin

a town of broken records

how can I

how can I

find a reason

“everythin all matters”

I guess that's all you

really want to hear

do do dodo do

uwoah uwoah

for a moment to the other side

the figures started shaping

feeling one step closer

to be taken away from

do do dodo do

uwoah uwoah

expressin such a dismay

won’t open up

I’ll ask again, so stay

such a passion

I would long for you to be here

and in cases lose myself

and break away and feel

the cycle all again

do doo dodo doo

uwoah uwoah

See through to what can be seen

lose grip

I’ll ask again, for you to stay

I’ll ask again, so stay

I’ll ask again, so stay
