Lyrics

千切られた鎖など意味を持たぬことわざ
繋がれてこそ心は絶えず奔放です

chigirareta kusari nado imi wo motanu kotowaza
tsunagarete koso kokoro wa taezu honpou desu

零れた愚痴 ちょっと昼寝
恍けた顔 刺さるナイフ
小さな恋 大きな夢
奇麗な夕陽

koboreta guchi chotto hirune
toboketa kao sasaru naifu
chiisana koi ookina yume
kirei na yuuhi

交わされた誓いなど そこに何もなくとも
守るべき時がある 刻まれた宿命
傷ついた身体ならいくらでも治るけど
魂は汚せない 誇り高く生きる
見せかけじゃなくてね

kawasareta chikai nado soko ni nani mo naku tomo
mamorubeki toki ga aru kizamareta shukumei
kizutsuita karada nara ikura demo naoru kedo
tamashii wa yogosenai hokoritakaku ikiru
misekake janakute ne

ニュートンとシナプスの理想的な関係
離ればなれになったら That’s 退屈です

nyuuton to shinapusu no risouteki na kankei
hanarebanare ni nattara That’s taikutsu desu

哀しい顔 嬉しい顔
優しい顔  怒った顔
寒い夜も 暑い夜も
浮かべた夜空

kanashii kao ureshii kao
yasashii kao okotta kao
samui yoru mo atsui yoru mo
ukabeta yozora

隠された秘密など いくらでもあっていい
いずれ来る 『知る時』を待ち遠しく想う
見返りや悦びは自分で探せばいい
魂を光らせて 誇り高く生きる
見せかけじゃなくてね

kakusareta himitsu nado ikura demo atte ii
izure kuru “shiru toki” wo machidooshiku omou
mikaeri ya yorokobi wa jibun de sagaseba ii
tamashii wo hikarasete hokoritakaku ikiru
misekake janakute ne

交わされた誓いなど そこに何もなくとも
守るべき時がある 刻まれた宿命
傷ついた身体ならいくらでも治るけど
魂は汚せない 誇り高く生きる
見せかけじゃなくてね

kawasareta chikai nado soko ni nani mo naku tomo
mamorubeki toki ga aru kizamareta shukumei
kizutsuita karada nara ikura demo naoru kedo
tamashii wa yogosenai hokoritakaku ikiru
misekake janakute ne

Translation

A chain cut to shreds is a meaningless proverb
The heart is always unrestrained when it’s chained

A spilled complaint, a little nap
An innocent face, a stabbing knife
A little love, a big dream
A beautiful sunset

Even if there’s nothing there like the vows exchanged
There is a time I must protect, the fate that is carved
You can heal a wounded body as much as you want
But you can’t stain your soul. Live proudly.
It’s not a pretense.

The ideal relation between Newton and Synapse
If they were separated それは boring

A sad face, a happy face
A kind face, an angry face.
On cold nights, on hot nights
It floated in the night sky

It’s okay to have as many hidden secrets as you want
I can’t wait for the time “when I’ll know”
You can find your own rewards and pleasures
Let your soul shine. Live proudly
It’s not a pretense.

Even if there’s nothing there like the vows exchanged
There is a time I must protect, the fate that is carved
You can heal a wounded body as much as you want
But you can’t stain your soul. Live proudly.
It’s not a pretense.
