Spice

After-school detour laughter
Looking for shortcuts, taking long ways around
Back then, we didn't count every single failure
Covered in mud, until tomorrow again
Gathering sand from our pockets
Yesterday must have been fun
Since when, I wonder,
Did I have to be a good person?
Always, in such an inescapable tightness
Was I getting bound up?
I can't say I've lived without doubts, but even I
Gazed with sparkling eyes beyond that alley into the universe
Even a harsh life is surely a spice I'll come to accept
I want to do things I can only do now
Shaping unprecedented things
I don't want to become an adult
That's what I think, after becoming one
I feel like I've been counting only failures
Swallowing up the days, one way or another
Spreading out the receipts in my pocket
Last night was properly fun too
Forever and ever
If we can become stronger through shared tears
We can laugh off such things
Even if burned by expectations
I won't let my imagination wither
So I don't lose myself to irresponsible words
The result of facing things sincerely, a series of mistakes, that's life
Beyond the illusion, we gaze with shining eyes
If we finally grab hold after overcoming it many times, let's not let go
Reaching out our hands to what lies ahead
Drawing the future of us
