Lyrics
Romaji= Ashita e tsuzuku sakamichi no tochuu de Surechigau otonatachi wa tsubuyaku no sa "Ai toka yume toka risou mo wakaru kedo Me no mae no genjitsu wa sonna ni amakunai" tte

Tsumazuki nagara mo korogari nagara mo Kasabuta darake no jounetsu wo wasuretakunai

Otona ni narenai bokura no tsuyogari wo hitotsu kiitekure Nige mo kakure mo shinai kara waraitai yatsu dake warae Semete tayorinai bokura no jiyuu no me o tsumitoranaide Mizu o ageru sono yakume o hataseba iin darou?

Nando mo kurikaeshita shippai toka ookiku kuichigatta kangae toka Bokura no kijun wa totemo futashika de Kinou yori nantonaku hohaba ga hiroku natta

Senobi o shinagara uchinomesare nagara Kasabuta o chotto hagasu kedo kotae wa denai

Otona ni naritai bokura no wagamama o hitotsu kiitekure Nete mo samete mo shibarareru jikan o sukoshi dake tomete Semete fugainai bokura no jiyuu no mi wo kiritoranaide

Akaku jukusu sono toki made nayameba iin darou?

Otona ni narenai bokura no tsuyogari o hitotsu kiitekure Nige mo kakure mo shinai kara waraitai yatsu dake warae Semete tayorinai bokura no jiyuu no me o tsumitoranaide Mizu o ageru sono yakume o hataseba iin darou? Kanji = 明日へ続く坂道の途中で すれ違う大人たちはつぶやくのさ 「愛とか夢とか理想も解るけど 目の前の現実はそんなに甘くない」って

つまずきながらも転がりながらも カサブタだらけの情熱を忘れたくない

大人になれない僕らの強がりをひとつ聞いてくれ 逃げも隠れもしないから笑いたい奴だけ笑え せめて頼りない僕らの自由の芽を摘み取らないで 水をあげるその役目を果たせばいいんだろう？

何度も繰り返した失敗とか　大きく食い違った考えとか 僕らの基準はとても不確かで 昨日より何となく歩幅が広くなった

背伸びをしながら打ちのめされながら カサブタをちょっとはがすけど答えは出ない

大人になりたい僕らのわがままをひとつ聞いてくれ 寝ても覚めても縛られる時間を少しだけとめて せめてふがいない僕らの自由の実を切り取らないで 赤く熟すその時まで悩めばいいんだろう？

大人になれない僕らの強がりをひとつ聞いてくれ 逃げも隠れもしないから笑いたい奴だけ笑え せめて頼りない僕らの自由の芽を摘み取らないで 水をあげるその役目を果たせばいいんだろう？ English = On the uphill road leading to tomorrow The adults that pass by mutter: "We understand ideals like love and dreams But reality in front of your eyes isn't so easy."

Even when stumbling, even when tumbling I don't want to forget this scabby passion

We can't become adults, but please buy one of our bluffs We won't run or hide, so those who want to can laugh We're unreliable, but at least don't pluck the sprout of our freedom It's okay if we fulfill the duty of watering it, right?

Mistakes repeated so many times And ideas crashing so greatly Our standards are very uncertain But it feels like our steps have become longer than yesterday

Standing on tiptoe, being knocked down I peel my scab a bit but there is no answer

We want to become adults, so please grant one of our selfish wishes For a short while stop the time that binds us day or night We're worthless, but at least don't cut down the fruit of our freedom It's okay if we wait for it to ripen red, right?

We can't become adults, but please buy one of our bluffs We won't run or hide, so those who want to can laugh We're unreliable, but at least don't pluck the sprout of our freedom It's okay if we fulfill the duty of watering it, right?
