Protect the Light

I believed that crying was selfish
Ran through monochrome backstreets
Without expecting to meet anyone in this town

I know it's a fleeting fate
No matter how strong a prayer is
It gets erased like graffiti
Even precious memories
Still, I'll reach out with all my might
If someday we're forgiven
I want to find the meaning of happiness
Let's protect this quietly burning, lovely light oh

Before I knew it, even my fingertips were still dirty
How many rusty doorknobs have I turned?
I thought no one was around, just like yesterday

Maybe this isn't the right answer
Should we keep going while starting over?
We'll overcome the fences we can't climb
Turning heartache into a spring
I want to touch the continuation of the world where you are
If someday we're forgiven
I want to untie the binding knots
Let's protect the faint but warm light

From the gaps in the lead-colored clouds
I can see the light blue faintly
So I'll get up right away without looking down
Even if laughed at as a fantasy

I won't stop reaching out with all my might
If someday we're forgiven
I want to find the meaning of happiness
Let's protect this quietly burning, lovely light oh, oh, oh, oh

Naku no wa wagamama na koto to shinjite ita
Monokuro no uramichi o hashiri nukete kita
Deai nante yosou mo sezu ni kono machi de

Hakanai sadame to shitteru yo
Dore hodo tsuyoi inori demo
Rakugaki mitai ni kesareteku
Taisetsu na omoide made
Soredemo te o nobasu seiippai
Itsuka bokura yurusareru nara
Shiawase no imi ni tadoritsukitainda
Hisoka ni tomoru kono kawaii akari o mamorou oh

Ki ga tsukeba yubisaki mo yogoreta mama de
Sabitsuita doanobu ikutsu mawashitakke?
Kinou to onaji dare mo inai to omotteta

Seikai wa kore janai no kamo
Yarinaoshi nagara susumou ka
Koerarenai saku o koete iku
Setsunasa o bane ni kaete
Kimi ga iru sekai no tsuzuki ni furetai
Moshimo bokura yurusareru nara
Toraware no musubime o hodokitainda
Kasuka dakeredo atatakai akari o mamorou

Namariiro no kumo no sukima kara
Mizuiro ga chiisaku mieru kara
Shitamukazu ni sugu okiagaru
Esoragoto to warawarete mo

Yamenai yo te o nobasu seiippai
Itsuka bokura yurusareru nara
Shiawase no imi ni tadoritsukitainda
Hisoka ni tomoru kono kawaii akari o mamorou oh, oh, oh, oh
