PowerPoint Warriors

ーーThe English lyrics are written below the Japanese lyricsーー

[Intro]
始発前のオフィス街 自販機だけ眠らない
カードキー擦る音 朝焼けがまだ冷たい

[Verse 1]
「一旦 持ち帰ります」結論だけまた消えた
昨日 通った企画書も朝には赤で戻ってる
コピー機の排熱と乾ききった笑い声
隣の席の溜め息がBGMみたいに響く

[Pre Chorus]
誰より先に頷いて誰より責任を避ける
正論だけ磨いた声で
誰かの手だけ止めてく

[Chorus]
Deadline burning through the blinds
Nobody cleaning up the mess
「確認します」だけ増えて
また誰かが終電だ
PowerPoint warriors
今日も世界を語ってる
横文字だけ積み上げて
肝心なこと伏せている

[Post Chorus]
冷えた缶コーヒー疲れた顔が浮かんでた

[Verse 2]
「なるほど たしかにです」
便利すぎるその返事
誰の意見かわからない
空気だけが進んでく
CCだらけのメールには責任だけ薄まって
「共有ありがとうございます」
中身は誰も読んでない
既読マークが並んでる
墓標みたいなチャット欄
終電検索する指がまたタブを増やしていく

[Pre Chorus 2]
波風より厄介な黙ったままの会議室
何も決めない安心で全部誰かに投げてる

[Chorus]
Blue light burning through my eyes
Slack notifications scream
「検討します」だけ残って
肝心なこと消えていく
Fake smart vampires
弱い言葉に群がって
革靴だけ綺麗なまま数字だけ追い回した

[Bridge]
非常階段の踊り場 缶コーヒーもうぬるい
「辞めたいっすね」って笑って
誰も茶化せなかった
深夜二時の会議室モニターだけ白くて
修正履歴だらけのファイル
今日も保存を繰り返す

[Breakdown]
Hey !
Who’s staying late again tonight?
Hey !
Who’s fixing what you left behind?
Hey !
Before this polished office smile
Eats your nerves away alive

[Last Chorus]
Deadline burning through the dawn
Still nobody leaves their seat
綺麗な戦略より先に誰か眠らせてくれ
Not a hero, not a star
ただ壊れず帰りたい
愛想笑い貼りつけたまま
また始発を待っている

[Intro]
Empty streets before the morning rush
Only vending machines still glow
The sound of keycards scraping through
And the sunrise still feels cold

[Verse 1]
“We’ll take it back and circle around”
Another answer disappears
Even the proposal signed off yesterday
Comes back covered in red by dawn

Heat from the copy machine
Dry laughter echoing down the floor
The sigh from the desk beside me
Loops like background noise again

[Pre Chorus]
First to nod along politely
First to dodge the blame
With sharpened voices full of “logic”
They only stop somebody else’s hands

[Chorus]
Deadline burning through the blinds
Nobody cleaning up the mess
“Still reviewing” fills the air again
Another missed last train tonight

PowerPoint warriors
Talking like they own the world
Stacking buzzwords to the ceiling
While hiding what really matters

[Post Chorus]
In a cold canned coffee
A tired face stared back at me

[Verse 2]
“I see what you mean exactly”
The safest answer in the room
No one knows whose thoughts are whose
Only the atmosphere keeps moving

Emails flooded full of CCs
Diluting every ounce of blame
“Thanks so much for sharing this”
But nobody reads the file

Read receipts lined up in rows
Like gravestones in a chat window
My fingers searching train schedules
While opening another tab

[Pre Chorus 2]
More dangerous than conflict
Is a meeting room that says nothing
Comfort found in never deciding
Passing it off to someone else

[Chorus]
Blue light burning through my eyes
Slack notifications scream
“We’ll consider it” is all that’s left
While anything important fades away

Fake smart vampires
Feeding on the weakest words
Polished shoes still shining bright
While chasing numbers endlessly

[Bridge]
On the emergency stairwell landing
The canned coffee’s gone warm
“Man… I wanna quit,” somebody laughed
And nobody joked about it

Two in the morning in the meeting room
Only the monitors still glow white
A file filled with endless revisions
Saved again and again tonight

[Breakdown]
Hey!
Who’s staying late again tonight?
Hey!
Who’s fixing what you left behind?
Hey!
Before this polished office smile
Eats your nerves away alive

[Last Chorus]
Deadline burning through the dawn
Still nobody leaves their seat
Forget your perfect strategies
Just let somebody sleep tonight

Not a hero, not a star
Just trying not to break apart
With another pasted-on fake smile
Waiting for the first train home

綺麗な戦略と横文字が飛び交う裏側で、誰かの睡眠と本音が消えていく。何も決まらない会議と増え続ける修正履歴の中、「帰りたい」だけを胸に始発を待ち続ける現代労働者たちのブルース。 Behind the polished strategies and endless corporate buzzwords, someone’s sleep and true feelings quietly disappear. Trapped in meetings where nothing is ever decided and revision histories that never end, this is the blues of modern workers—waiting for the first train home with nothing but the thought, “I just want to go home,” holding them together. ーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーThe English lyrics are written below the Japanese lyricsーー [Intro] 始発前のオフィス街自販機だけ眠らないカードキー擦る音朝焼けがまだ冷たい [Verse 1] 「一旦持ち帰ります」結論だけまた消えた昨日通った企画書も朝には赤で戻ってるコピー機の排熱と乾ききった笑い声隣の席の溜め息がBGMみたいに響く [Pre Chorus] 誰より先に頷いて誰より責任を避ける正論だけ磨いた声で誰かの手だけ止めてく [Chorus] Deadline burning through the blinds Nobody cleaning up the mess 「確認します」だけ増えてまた誰かが終電だ PowerPoint warriors 今日も世界を語ってる横文字だけ積み上げて肝心なこと伏せている [Post Chorus] 冷えた缶コーヒー疲れた顔が浮かんでた [Verse 2] 「なるほどたしかにです」便利すぎるその返事誰の意見かわからない空気だけが進んでく CCだらけのメールには責任だけ薄まって「共有ありがとうございます」中身は誰も読んでない既読マークが並んでる墓標みたいなチャット欄終電検索する指がまたタブを増やしていく [Pre Chorus 2] 波風より厄介な黙ったままの会議室何も決めない安心で全部誰かに投げてる [Chorus] Blue light burning through my eyes Slack notifications scream 「検討します」だけ残って肝心なこと消えていく Fake smart vampires 弱い言葉に群がって革靴だけ綺麗なまま数字だけ追い回した [Bridge] 非常階段の踊り場缶コーヒーもうぬるい「辞めたいっすね」って笑って誰も茶化せなかった深夜二時の会議室モニターだけ白くて修正履歴だらけのファイル今日も保存を繰り返す [Breakdown] Hey !
