Lyrics
dangan kometa shoujuu wo boku wa katate ni motte iru
furueta kimi no irubasho he ashi wo hayame mukatte iru

弾丸込めた小銃を僕は片手に持っている
震えた君のいる場所へ足を早め向かっている
チクタク針はチクタクと
焦る心を急かしただけ
チクタク針はチクタクと
留まる気配もなく進んでいく
誰の温度もない部室で
冷え切った手を伸ばしてる
塞いだ僕のいる場所は
誰にもわからない
チクタク針はチクタクと
終わりと始まりの境目
チクタク針はチクタクと
全て重なった
閉口して僕は待っていた
笑えるほどの悲しみを
閉口して僕は待っていた
涙するほどの幸福も
誰の温度もない部室で
冷え切った手を伸ばしてる
塞いだ僕のいる場所は
誰にもわからない
チクタクチクタクと
騙し騙しの日々を
チクタクチクタクと
進まない僕を
チクタク針はチクタクと
責め立てるように
チクタク針はチクタクと
全て重なって
閉口して僕は待っていた
薄暗い部屋一人きり
閉口して僕は待っていた
ドアを蹴破るその音を
閉口して僕は待っていた
薄暗い部屋一人きり
閉口して僕は待っていた
もう怖れることはないよ
弾丸込めた小銃を持って
固く閉ざされたドアを蹴破った
吸い付いた銃口が跳ねて昨日の僕を貫いた
おやすみその絶望を受け取って
明日への僕は歩き始めた
I’m holding a fully-loaded rifle in one hand
Running as fast as I can to the place where you are trembling
Tick-tock; the needle is going tick-tock
It is only making my already impatient heart to hurry
Tick-tock; the needle is going tick-tock
(I’m) moving forward without any indication of stopping
In a room without anyone’s warmth
(I’m) stretching out my frozen hand
The place for me which is blocked up now
Nobody understands
Tick-tock; the needle is going tick-tock
The boundary between the end and the beginning
Tick-tock; the needle is going tick-tock
Everything has piled up here
I was waiting dumb-founded
Sadness so big that (I) wanted to laugh at it
I was waiting dumb-founded
Happiness so big that (I) wanted to cry
In a room without anyone’s warmth
I’m stretching out my frozen hand
The place for me which is blocked up now
Nobody understands
Tick-tock; Tick-tock
Days full of deceiving and deceiving
Tick-tock; Tick-tock
Me, who is not moving forward
Tick-tock; the needle is going tick-tock
As though it is urging me
Tick-tock; the needle is going tick-tock
Everything has piled up here
I was waiting dumb-founded
Alone in a dim room
I was waiting dumb-founded
The sound of the door being kicked open
I was waiting dumb-founded
Alone in a dim room
I was waiting dumb-founded
There is nothing to fear anymore
Holding a fully-loaded rifle
I kicked open the firmly shut door
Breaking the struck muzzle I got past the ‘me’ from yesterday
Goodnight; accepting this despair
I started walking towards tomorrow
Let’s meet up again tonight
