JAPANESE LYRICS (for -opening version-)

思い出せば遙か遙か
未来はどこまでも輝いてた
きれいな青空の下で
僕らは少しだけ怯えていた

懐かしい色に窓が染まる

前を向いてればまた会えますか
未来はどこへでも続いてるんだ
大きな看板の下で
時代の移ろいを見ていたいな

人知れず
My heart's a battleground

二度と会えぬ人に場所に
窓を開ける

思い出せば遙か遙か
未来はどこまでも輝いてた
きれいな青空の下で
僕らはいつまでも眠っていた

My fears, my lies
青空の下


JAPANESE LYRICS (ROMAJI) (for -opening version-)

Omoidaseba haruka haruka 
Mirai wa doko made mo kagayaiteta 
Kirei na aozora no shita de 
Bokura wa sukoshi dake obieteita 

Natsukashii iro ni mado ga somaru 

Mae wo muitereba mata aemasu ka 
Mirai wa doko e demo tsudzuiterun da 
Ookina kanban no shita de 
Jidai no utsuroi wo miteitai na 

Hitoshirezu
My heart's a battleground

Nido to aenu hito ni basho ni 
Mado wo akeru 

Omoidaseba haruka haruka 
Mirai wa doko made mo kagayaiteta 
Kirei na aozora no shita de 
Bokura wa itsu made mo nemutteita 

My fears, my lies
Aozora no shita
