[Verse 1] むかしむかしのあるところ 道を彷徨う主人公 道しるべとなる三人へ 旅のヒントを求めて向かう [Pre-Chorus 1] 1人目の山頂に住む "Belief(信念)"は言う 「信じなさい。自分の心に問いかければ、 答えは必ず見つかるのです。」 なるほど…と思うけれど 「でも、その答えが正しいのか、自信ないんだよな」 [Chorus 1] The road is silent, endless night 月明かりが影を引きずる Each step I take feels less like mine それでも道はどこかに続く それでも進む理由を探して [Verse 2] 次に、湖畔に住む "Prayer(祈り)"は言った 「祈るのです。焦らず天に任せれば、 答えは必ず示されるでしょう」 なるほど…と思うけれど 「でもその間、祈ってるだけでいいのかな」 [Pre-Chorus 2] そして、時計台に住む "Expectation(期待)"は言う 「期待するんだ。人や未来に。 そうしていれば、答えは必ず望んだものになるはず。」 なるほど…と思うけれど 「でも今まで期待は外れてばかりだったしな」 [Chorus 2] The sky stays silent through the night 月明かりが夜空を包む Every hope feels less certain than before それでも道は前へと伸びる それでも歩く今日もあしたも [Bridge] 二手に分かれて伸びる道 はたしてどっちに行くべきか こっちの道のが近いのか あっちの道のが楽なのか そんな時、影から近づく "Resignation(諦め)"が ため息混じりに囁いた 「ほらね、いつまでたっても答えは出ない もう考えなくても一緒だよ」 それでも…とは思うけれど… [Chorus 3] The road ahead divides beneath the night 月明かりが夜道に落ちる Each step I take feels heavier still それでも道はどこかへ繋がる それでも進む選んだ道を [Outro] これで良いんだと思いつつ 行く先に少し期待して あとは祈るしかないのかな 月明かりに照らされる夜道を 一人、とぼとぼ歩き続ける ---------------- [Verse 1] Once upon a time, somewhere, there was a protagonist wandering the roads. Seeking three who might serve as guides, he set out in search of hints for his journey. [Pre-Chorus 1] The first lived at the top of a mountain. "Belief" said, "Believe. If you ask your own heart, you will surely find the answer." That makes sense... but still, "But I'm not sure whether that answer is really the right one." [Chorus 1] The road is silent, endless night Moonlight drags my shadow behind Each step I take feels less like mine Even so, the road leads somewhere Even so, I search for a reason to keep going [Verse 2] Next, by the lakeside, "Prayer" said, "Pray. Don't rush. Leave it to the heavens, and the answer will surely be shown to you." That makes sense... but still, "But am I really supposed to just keep praying until then?" [Pre-Chorus 2] Then, living in the clock tower, "Expectation" said, "Expect something from people and from the future. Keep doing that, and the answer will surely become what you hoped for." That makes sense... but still, "But my expectations have mostly let me down so far." [Chorus 2] The sky stays silent through the night Moonlight wraps around the night sky Every hope feels less certain than before Even so, the road keeps stretching forward Even so, I walk today and tomorrow [Bridge] The road ahead stretches out and splits in two. Which way should I go? Is this way the shorter one? Is that way the easier one? Just then, approaching from the shadows, "Resignation" whispered with a sigh, "See? No matter how long you wait, no answer comes. It makes no difference if you stop thinking about it." Still... I can't help thinking, "Even so..." [Chorus 3] The road ahead divides beneath the night Moonlight falls upon the road Each step I take feels heavier still Even so, the road must connect to somewhere Even so, I move on—the road I chose [Outro] Telling myself this is alright, with a little hope for what lies ahead, maybe all that's left is to pray. Along a road lit by moonlight, I keep trudging on alone.
