Title: Shiawase tte Nan Desuka?
Words: Hitomi
Music: HIKARI

this feeling I'm helpless to stop that's spreading in my heart
it's something I'm used to but,
when I look at how everything adds up,
I start feeling horrible about it all
I wonder if I can't just reset it, one time.

the desensitizing news that somewhere some people are "killing eachother"
no one really knows what's going on.

going through the joy, the sadness the anger
again to settle at a safe place
are you gonna let that pass? what about it?
even if we behave indifferently, and make concerned faces at the details and not the bigger picture we'll live another new day, what can we do~?
It'll make you miserable
to leave the wound on your heart open without doing anything.

'we mustn't let ourselves get pulled into this',
they're claims are just that and nothing else
The past, the present... Has anything changed?

bearing the hurt, bottling the indignation,
and shaking off the sadness
provides some relief
'there's nothing to be done about it' Are you sure?

envy awaits somewhere within a person's heart,
lock it in a full nelson and throw it away.
someday we'll be gone, it's the nature of the beast.

like the flower trembling between a crack in the concrete.
let's put down our roots and live, stronger!

going through the joy, the sadness the anger
again to settle at a safe place
are you gonna let that pass? what about it?
even if we behave indifferently, and make concerned faces at the details and not the bigger picture we're alive today, so live that life for someone else.
