誰かが教えてくれた
生まれたときに全部決まると
何も悲しくなんかない
当たり前だ
汚れた羽に小さな目
鷹によく似た鳴き声だけど
憎しみと苦しい言葉
突き刺されて
夜の闇に隠れては
答えを探してたけど
なぜだろう わけもなく
泣きたくなった
満天の星に 願いをこめたなら
孤独の先に 飛べるはずさ
僕の体は 燃えて消えたけれど
もう一回 もう一回 飛び立てる
生きることは悲しいね
気づかずに誰かを傷つけて
誰より僕が僕のこと
許せなくて
誰かに愛されたいと
願うことなど一度もなくて
変わらないまま生きていたい
それだけだよ
夜の闇に輝いた
青白い光だけが
なぜだろう わけもなく
やさしく見えた
満天の星に 叫び続けたなら
この想いだけ 届けばいいや
僕の体は もう動かないけれど
もう一回 もう一回 飛び立てる
届くはずないと
笑う声も消え
もはや誰もいない
やっと僕は僕の世界を手に入れた
満天の星に 願いをこめたなら
孤独の先に 飛べるはずさ
僕の体は 燃えて消えたけれど
もう一回 もう一回 飛び立てる
ずっと青白く燃える
どこかにあるよだかの願いは
地上を照らし続けて
輝いてる
I’ve always admired that blazing sun
One day, I hope I can reach it, reach it, reach it
I remember someone telling me,
That everything’s set in stone the moment we’re born
There’s nothing at all worth being sad about,
It’s all a given
These dirty wings and small beady eyes,
Even though my cry just sounds like the Hawk,
These words of hatred and bitterness
Pierce me endlessly
Hiding in the darkness of the night,
Just searching for an answer to all of this,
I wonder why, without any reason,
The tears just well up
If I wish upon this sky full of stars with all of my heart,
I’ll be able to soar past this loneliness
The body of mine, even if it has already been burned to dust
Just one more time, one more time, I’ll fly again
To live, is such a sorrowful thing, isn’t it?
Without even noticing, I’ll hurt someone out there
More than anyone else,
I can’t forgive myself for that
“I want to be loved”, not even once,
Have I ever wished for such a thing
I want to live the way I have lived all this time,
It’s just that simple
Shining brightly in the darkness of the night,
Was a bluish-white glimmer of light
I wonder why, without a reason
It looked so warm and gentle
If I shout my lungs out, at the sky full of stars,
Just these thoughts of mine, I want them to reach
This body of mine, though it won’t ever move again,
Just one more time, one more time, I’ll fly again
The jeering voices saying “It won’t ever reach”
Have all disappeared
There’s no longer anyone else
At last, I’ve found a world that belongs to me
If I wish upon this sky full of stars with all of my heart,
I’ll be able to soar past this loneliness
The body of mine, even if it has already been burned to dust
Just one more time, one more time, I’ll fly again
I’ve always admired the starry night sky
One day, I hope I can reach it, reach it, reach it
Forever burning a bluish-white,
The wish of the nighthawk that’s out there somewhere
Will continue to illuminate the Earth
Shining brightly
