歩き方 - How to Walk Through Life -
人生の歩き方なんて、誰にもわからない。 立ち止まれば、逃げているように見える。 踏み出せば、自分勝手の わがままに見える。 変わらないことに守られながら、変われないまま沈んでいく怖さ。 それでも、希望だけは離さないでいたい。 これは、大きな宣言や行動の歌ではなく、正解のない場所で立ち尽くしながら、自分だけの“歩き方”を探していく歌です。 ✨『 いまは何もない私だけど... ( I Have Nothing Yet, But ) 』✨ https://suno.com/song/ac2acf7c-4093-4354-b0b8-eb654b7ef143 ※同一主人公として設定しているわけではありません。 とあわせて聴くと、歌詞の温度が少し変わると思います。 あの曲が、 『何者でもないからこそ、まだ何者にでもなれる』 頃の歌だとしたら、 この曲は、 守りたいものや積み重ねてきたものが増えたあとで、それでも希望だけは離さずに歩こうとする歌です。 ----------------------------------------------------- No one really knows how to walk through life. If you stand still, it may look like you are running away. If you take a step forward, it may look selfish. There are so many “right words” and so many maps drawn by other people, yet sometimes you still cannot find your own first step. It is not that you have no confidence. But the more things pile up on your back, the harder it becomes to move. There is a quiet fear in being protected by what never changes, while sinking because you still cannot change. Even so, I want to keep holding on to hope. This is not a song about a grand declaration or a bold action. It is a song about standing still in a place with no clear answer, while searching for your own way to walk. If you listen to this together with “I Have Nothing Yet, But,” https://suno.com/song/ac2acf7c-4093-4354-b0b8-eb654b7ef143 the temperature of the lyrics may feel a little different. *These songs are not necessarily set as the same protagonist’s story. If that song was about a time when “because I was still no one, I could still become anyone,” then this song is about what comes after: when there are more things to protect, more things that have piled up over time, and yet you still try to walk without letting go of hope. ----------------------------------------------------- ■ 歩き方 - How to Walk Through Life - 知ったような顔で Don’t talk about life 人生を語らないで as if you already know it all 転んだこともない靴で With shoes that have never stumbled, 私の道を決めないで don’t decide the road I should take 正解だけを踏んでいく You step only on the “right answers,” その足音がうるさくて and the sound of your steps is too loud 青くなった交差点で At the crossing, after the light turned green, まだ一歩が踏み出せなかった I still couldn’t take that first step どこへ行くの Where am I going? なんのために歩くの What am I walking for? 誰にもわからない No one really knows 人生の歩き方なんて how to walk through life 見えない道の先を Still, I keep searching それでも探している for what lies beyond this unseen road 進むごとに傷は増えて The farther I go, the more scars I carry 気づけば足元さえ until before I know it, 見えなくなるけれど I can’t even see my own feet それでも Even so, 希望だけは離さないで please don’t let go of hope 見えなくても歩いて行こう Even when you can’t see, let’s keep walking 進んでいけば If we keep moving forward, 違う景色が見えてくる a different view will come into sight 息苦しさと共に The days I walked 歩いた日も with this breathless weight 深く落ちてしまった日も and the days I fell so deeply そんな道もあったと Someday, I hope we can smile and say いつか笑ってみればいい there were roads like that too 誰かの地図を買ったって Even if I bought someone else’s map, 私の道は載ってなくて my road was never drawn on it 正しい言葉を集めても Even after gathering all the right words, 一歩目がわからない I still didn’t know the first step 自信がないわけじゃない It’s not that I have no confidence だけど軽くもない but this isn’t light either 背中に積もるものが The things piling up on my back ひとつずつ重くなっていく grow heavier, one by one 進めないのは Is it because I’m running away 逃げてるからですか？ that I can’t move forward? 進みたいのは Is it selfish of me わがままですか？ to still want to move on? 現状維持の甘い毒が The sweet poison of staying the same 静かに胸へ回っていく quietly spreads through my chest 変わらないことに守られて Protected by what never changes, 変われないまま沈んでいく I sink, still unable to change かすかな光さえ Even the faintest light 見えない明日に滲んでいく blurs into an unseen tomorrow それでも Even so, 希望だけは離さないで please don’t let go of hope 見えなくても歩いて行こう Even when you can’t see, let’s keep walking 進んでいけば If we keep moving forward, 違う景色が見えてくる a different view will come into sight 息苦しさの中で The days you kept protecting something 守ってきた日も while struggling to breathe 変われないまま and the days you nearly sank, 沈みかけた日も still unable to change そんな道もあったと Someday, I hope we can smile and say いつか笑ってみればいい there were roads like that too 何者でもない頃の Back when I was still no one, 私なら走れたかな would I have been able to run? 守りたいものが増えるほど The more things I wanted to protect, 言えない夢も増えていく the more dreams I could no longer say aloud それでもまだ Even so, still, この足だけは覚えている these feet remember 誰もがいつかわかっていく Someday, everyone comes to understand 人生の歩き方 how to walk through life 人それぞれに That each person 歩き方があることを has their own way of walking つまずいた日の足跡が The footprints from the days you stumbled, 汗と涙でできた道が the road made of sweat and tears, その傷が and those scars 今立っている場所まで have brought you all the way あなたを連れてきてくれた to where you are standing now だから So, これからも from here on too
