Japanese lyrics

破れたページは奪われたんだよ
どこかで落とした覚えはないから
違和感も無いほど綺麗に無いそこには
夢と言う名の章が確かにあった
誰に奪われたの 大事にしないから
うるさい 人事みたいに言いやがって ても
何を憎めばいい 過去か自分自身か
できれば他の誰かであれ
物語の僕らがその未来を思うのは
辻褄あわせのエンディングなんて見たくないから

今は無いページは丈夫に出来てた
ちょっとやそっとじゃ破れたりなんかしない その
笑われたページは涙で滲んでた
だから本当は少しほっともしたんだろう
誰に奪われたか そんなのどうでもいい
どうせ世界には影響なんてない
当然の事なのに寂しいのは
自分を信じきれなかった自分自身
物語の僕らがその未来を思うのは
ありふれてなんかいない特別な事なんだ

破れてしまっても 終わらなかったんだ
破れたままでも ほら
守るべき何かは増えていくんだろう

物語の僕らが
その未来を思うのは
無くした後でも
主役は変われないから

賞賛なんてされなくたって
確かな今日があるなら
夢なんて名前の章は
いくらでも作れるんだ

English translation

I should have picked up that torn page
But I don’t remember where I lost it
It was so unclean there, even uneasiness fades away
But I’m sure the chapter named “dream” is there
I don’t really care anymore about the ones I lost to others
Shut up, you don’t tell me what I have to do, but
What should I hate? The past? Myself?
If only it could just be someone else
Inside the storybook, while aiming for such a future
We don’t see a coherent ending

I went on well on the page that went missing
I was unbreakable there
I blurred with tears the page where I laughed
That’s why I was slightly relieved when I burned that page
To whom did I lost that page? I don’t really care anymore
It won’t have any effect on the global scale anyway
I know it’s a fact, but I’m still desolate
Because I didn’t believe on myself
Inside the storybook, while aiming for such a future
Such futures are unique, no two people are the same

Even if it’s torn off, it didn’t end there
While it’s torn off, look,
There are now more things to protect now

Inside the storybook
While aiming for such a future
Even after losing it,
Our role as lead hasn’t changed

Even if we aren’t recognized at all
As long as we have today
We can create as many chapters as we could
With the title “dream” in it
